Bruce Dickinson - '1000 Points of Light' (official audio)
You can sail in the desert with a ship of fools
You can smuggle in Moses and his book of rules
But you can't take a mother and give her back her son
What kind of freedom is bought with a gun?
People like to build their prison walls
When they're afraid to look inside
A thousand points of light
Are the muzzle flashes in the night
And the freedoms you profess to hold
Won't bring the dead back from the cold...
Political speeches they are lying in the mud
Nothing else matters but money and blood
Tyranny of freedom is do what you like
There's a world gone crazy, cause it can't say no
People like to build their prison walls
When they're afraid to look inside
A thousand points of light
Are the muzzle flashes in the night
And the freedoms you profess to hold
Won't bring the dead back from the cold...
A thousand points of light
Are the muzzle flashes in the night
And the freedoms you profess to hold
Won't bring the dead back from the cold...
"What is it that produces the light?
What is it that makes these thousand points of light shine?
What is it that will make America a kinder and gentler nation?
Perhaps I should ask who, who is it?" (George Bush)
There should be time for love
But there's too much room for hate
Too sliding of the truth
Too much abuse of wasted youth
There's a time for dying
And a time for living too
Had enough of media lies
Had enough of your alibis
A thousand points of light
Are the muzzle flashes in the night
And the freedoms you profess to hold
Won't bring the dead back from the cold...
A thousand points of light
Are the muzzle flashes in the night
And the freedoms you profess to hold
Won't bring the dead back from the cold...

Ο Paul Bruce Dickinson είναι ενεργός από το δεύτερο μισό της δεκαετίας του εβδομήντα [βλ. Styx (όχι η γνωστή μπάντα), Speed, Shots]. Τα πρώτα "ψήγματα" αναγνωρισιμότητας τα αποκτά μέσω των Samson στους οποίους διατέλεσε τραγουδιστής από το 1979 έως το 1981.
Η υφήλιος όμως τον έμαθε ως την φωνή των Iron Maiden. Παράλληλα από το 1989 "τρέχει" και την προσωπική του καριέρα, στην οποία αφοσιώθηκε πλήρως από το 1993 όταν αποχώρησε από τους Maiden (για να επιστρέψει έξι χρόνια αργότερα).
Ο πρώτος ουσιαστικά προσωπικός του δίσκος μετά το "διαζύγιο" με τους Maiden είναι το album "Balls to Picasso" που κυκλοφόρησε τον Ιούνιο του 1994. Πρόκειται για το δεύτερο (χρονικά) solo album Dickinson (προηγήθηκε το "Tattooed Millionaire" το 1990, αλλά τότε ήταν ακόμη μέλος των Iron Maiden).
