The best NWOBHM band🤘RIP Algy

Some of these lines don't make much sense but here's my transcription of the lyrics: There must be a season Where I can rest my bones Some would trade their freedom Some would trade their (god?) (Go light?) up the morning There's only (dope?) on the floor (Stinging song?) in the evening Sleep here and (spread out the dawn?) There must be a reason (Nothing won't come staring?) Crashes into winter Passes into winter Take me to your garden Where I can be alone Come (light up?) the (morning?) (dancing?)/(death sat?) down on (your?) floor (Sleep now?) you're starting to feel it Sleep (like you?) spread out the dawn Go light up the morning (Death sat?) down on your floor Sleep like a sun in the evening (Prevent this man from the dawn?) There must be a season Where I can rest my bones Some would trade their freedom Some would trade their god Take me to your garden Where I can be alone Come and light up the morning (Death sat down?) on your floor Sleep like a sun in the evening Stay here and spread out the dawn I'm probably totally wrong but I interpret this song as having multiple meanings. The first (literal) meaning is about taking way too much of something in an unfurnished room and (possibly) extreme end-stage depression. There seems to be a lot of astronomical imagery relating to the changing of the seasons which could be referencing the spring and summer equinoxes. "The equinox" was the title of Aleister Crowley's periodical works and as someone already pointed out, Boleskine manor was a home that Aleister Crowley lived in. An interviewer once asked Dorothia what this song was about and she didn't want to explain other than it definitely meant something personal to her. I wish I could hear what she says after "there must be a reason" in the second stanza.

Thank you.

Windhand groove to solos harmony is unmatched. People dont know

Her voice is so buried in the music, this is the best I can do: There must be a season Where I can rest my bones Some would trade their freedom Some would trade their gold Chorus: Got light of the morning Then sat down on the floor Sing at the sun in the evening Sleep in despair of the dawn There must be a reason Nothing good can stay Passes into winter Passes into winter Take me to your garden Where I can be alone (chorus)

Saw Tank supporting Motorhead at Hammersmith Odeon in 1980's. Good times. Some Came Running still rates as one of theeee catchiest bass riffs.

Algy, PERFECT voice, but 'metalheads' are deaf cunts. Fuck them, they know nothing about music.

Sounds kind of like Gene Simmons vocals with Motorhead rhythms. No complaints here.

RIP Algy. Thanks for the music

My boxers just shrunk a little....

I'll take helpings of Tank from Australia/England and Riot from The United States of America over just about anything else........but there's more, just not as good, lol

BADASS !!!!!! Algy passed ???

glad to have this...just pure rock with no pretensions...RIP Algy, you done good

Just became aware of General Algy's passing... Rest in peace, sir!

RIP Algy :( still want me a thunderbird bass bcuz of this man

Rest easy Algy.

All the best algy

Superb band, superb songs , til it went wonky. No Algy..no tank

昔持ってたアルバム 久しぶりに聴いたけどカッコいいな このサウンド、後藤ひとりちゃんもきっと影響受けてる 自分のギターの使用者調べないわけないし

Don't know how to really describe the feeling. Try mountain hiking while listening to Windhand. Something about being surrounded by nature while listening to the powerful rawness of Windhand. Bordering on hypnotic is the result. Try it sometime, you'll be glad you did

Impressive

It´s remember me some kind of shoegaze.

Anyone know where I can find the lyrics?

Pedrada.

Holy Shit I can't describe what I've just heard

Great gig at hammersmith algy on the huge p.a. speakers..

I saw at hammersmith odeon. With motorhead on iron fist tour. 81/82

24:16 nice mouse click bruv

Metal boa banda gosto

where the DAMNED & OSMONDS collide..

This is magic.

Tank we're a band like no other. But it's good to see this classic line up with Algy on bass and vocals are in many ways being more respected now than they were almost throughout the entire 80s. This is without doubt the one and only Tank🤘

I unliked this just to be able to like it again.. ALGY = TANK FOREVER!!!

The mighty Tank 💪💥

Si estuviste la primera vez que tocaron los Barón Rojo en el "Pabellón te acordarás de los Tank,que buena noche

💓😍💓

First live band I ever saw back in 1980, still a big fan.

Algy Ward is a great front man

This whole album is so heavy.. I happily have this one on vinyl and every time I play it it is truly an experience. Dorthias vocals are absolutely ethereal throughout the entire thing. I ritualistically sacrifice a banana every time.

ME ENCANTAAA

VOCAL 😄😄😄PAUL STANLEY .

I need help now
