Gamma Ray - "Welcome / Anywhere In The Galaxy" (Live)

Staring out the window
at places in the starlit horizon
I'm waiting in the darkness
for arrival
but the sands of my time are running low

Lost and stranded far away from home
Peeping through window in the darkness
- parted our hearts
glowing turning circles where we go
- no, they won't let go, let go
blind our souls with raging burning madness

Out in the heavens we're ready to fight
the final conclusion is roaring inside

Gaze at the stars, the glowing god of mars
is shinning for us, anywhere in the galaxy
time is right for us to see
the world will long for liberty
the fallen heroes calling me
anywhere in the galaxy

Anywhere... in the galaxy
Anywhere... in the galaxy

And now our blood is boiling
on the edge of life
where is the place for our survivor

Up to the stars, we have come from the night
the final conclusion is roaring inside

Gaze at the stars, the glowing god of mars
is shining for us, anywhere in the galaxy
time is right for us to see
the world will long for liberty
the fallen heroes calling me
anywhere in the galaxy

Anywhere in the galaxy
we will fight for our destiny
anywhere in the galaxy
we will always run free

Anywhere in the galaxy
anywhere in the galaxy

And now the story finally ends
With no disgrace for our survival
Outrageous fury in my hands
And turning circles turn no more

Too late to cry
Too proud to die

Gaze at the stars, the glowing god of mars
is shining for us, anywhere in the galaxy
time is right for us to see
the world will long for liberty
the fallen heroes calling me
anywhere in the galaxy

Στις 29 Απριλίου 2011 οι Gamma Ray εμφανίσθηκαν "ζωντανά" στην πόλη Πράτελν της βόρειας Ελβετίας. Η συναυλία ηχογραφήθηκε / φιλμογραφήθηκε και κυκλοφόρησε την επόμενη χρονιά υπό τον τίτλο "Skeletons & Majesties Live". Πρόκειται για ένα από τα έξι live albums που έχουν κυκλοφορήσει οι Γερμανοί power metallers, οι οποίοι έχουν να βγάλουν δίσκο με νέο υλικό έξι χρόνια (βλ. το album "Empire of the Undead" του 2014)...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Relive Gamma Ray's spectacular show "Skeletons & Majesties", recorded in Pratteln (CH) during the band's 2011 European tour! Gamma Ray - with no doubt one of the most important contemporary names of classic heavy metal and THE most respected and influential German band in the genre.

Founded and fronted by Kai Hansen after his departure from Helloween, Gamma Ray became one of the most prominent bands in the European heavy metal scene. Along with the likes of Helloween, Blind Guardian, Primal Fear and Running Wild, Gamma Ray forms the core of the European power metal movement.

With the 1995 concept album “Land Of The Free”, Gamma Ray became internationally-known, touring with bands like Iron Maiden, Hammerfall and Stratovarius all over the place.»
