Mob Rules - 'Sacred Heart' (DIO cover version)

The old ones speak of winter
The young ones praise the sun
And time just slips away

Running into nowhere
Turning like a wheel
And a year becomes a day

Whenever we dream
That's when we fly
So here is a dream
For just you and I

We'll fin the Sacred Heart
Somewhere bleeding in the night
Look for the light
And find the Sacred Heart

Here we see the wizard
Staring through the glass
And he's pointing right at you

You can see tomorrow
The answer and the lie
And the things you've got to do

Oh, sometimes you never fall
And ah - You're the lucky one
But oh - Sometimes you want it all
You've got to reach for the sun

And find the Sacred Heart
Somewhere bleeding in the night
Oh look to the light
You fight to kill the dragon
And bargain with the beast
And sail into a sight

You run along the rainbow
And never leave the ground
And still you don't know why

Whenever you dream
You're holding the key
It opens the door
To let you be free

And find the Sacred Heart
Somewhere bleeding in the night
Run for the light
And you'll find the Sacred Heart

A shout comes from the wizard
The sky begins to crack

And he's looking right at you - Quick
Run along the rainbow
Before it turns to black - Attack

Στις 16 Μαΐου συμπληρώνονται δώδεκα έτη από τον θάνατο του (τεράστιου) Ronnie James Dio και οι Mob Rules τιμούν την μνήμη του διασκευάζοντας το τραγούδι "Sacred Heart", το οποίοι γνωρίσαμε στον ομότιτλο δίσκου του (των) Dio που κυκλοφόρησε τον δεκαπενταύγουστο του 1985...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Hardly any singer has influenced the rock & metal world as much as Ronnie James Dio. DIO was a role model for many people and thus also had a lasting influence on MOB RULES. In 2005 MOB RULES were special guests for DIO's MASTER OF THE MOON tour at Hyde Park Osnabrück and were lucky enough to meet DIO once in person. Because afterwards there was a warm-hearted meeting, whereupon joint shows were planned in 2009, which unfortunately could no longer be realized as a result of his illness. On the twelfth anniversary of Ronnie James Dio's death on May 16 2022, the memory of this impressive man shall be revived. His legacy and the memory of him, have lost nothing of their power and importance to this day and will remain a significant part of the rock world in the future.»
