Conquest - 'Man on the Silver Mountain' (Rainbow cover)

I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel
I can roll, I can feel

And you can't stop me turning
Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun
I can move, I can run
But you'll never stop me burning

Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again

I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

I'm the day, I'm the day
I can show you the way
And look, I'm right beside you

I'm the night, I'm the night
I'm the dark and the light
With eyes that see inside you

Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again

I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Come down with fire
And lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again

Well, I can help you, you know I can

I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Just look at me and listen
I'm the man, the man, give you my hand
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Come down with fire
And lift your spirit higher
I'm the man on the mountain
The man on the silver mountain
I'm the night, the light
The black and the white
The man on the silver mountain


Conquest - 'Man on the Silver Mountain'
Ο ύμνος "Man on the Silver Mountain" ήταν ουσιαστικά το τραγούδι με το οποίο μας συστήθηκαν οι Rainbow καθώς ήταν το πρώτο single που κυκλοφόρησαν αλλά και το εναρκτήριο τραγούδι του ντεμπούτου τους "Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow" (1975). Σύνθεση του Ritchie Blackmore, στίχοι του Ronnie James Dio, ο οποίος είχε περιγράψει το κομμάτι ως:

«A semi-religious one, a man on the silver mountain is a kind of God figure everyone is crying out to.»

Στο διάβα των δεκαετιών έχει γνωρίσει πάμπολλες διασκευές. Η πλέον πρόσφατη προέρχεται από τους Conquest. Το συγκρότημα Conquest δεν είναι νέο στην "πιάτσα". Υπάρχει στο heavy metal σύμπαν από την δεκαετία του ογδόντα. Ως προς το μουσικό τους ύφος; Ας αφήσουμε την ίδια την μπάντα να (μας) παρουσιαστεί:

«Strong, aggressive, high energy musicians from the Midwest, Conquest has rocked the nation with their pure breed of Modern Heavy Metal stemming from the old school influences of Metallica, Judas Priest and Slayer.»

Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει εννέα "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους (με πλέον πρόσφατο το full length album "The World Has Gone to Hell" που "βγήκε" προ τριετίας), πέντε demos, δύο EPs και ισάριθμα singles.

Δελτίο τύπου: «Dark Star Records is Pleased to Announce that Conquest have just Released Their New Single and Lyric Video for the song Man on the Silver Mountain. The song was originally made famous by the band Rainbow fronted by the Legendary Ronnie James Dio as the Lead Vocalist.

This version of the classic iconic song Man on the Silver Mountain is a slightly heavier version and features Derrick Brumley on guitar and lead vocals, Mike Crook on guitar and vocals, Rob Boyer on bass and vocals, Lee Skyles on drums and vocals.»
