What the fuck don't go gittin' all stupid now Fuck that! 76' bicentenial ' I was partyin' gettin all fucked up after I got frag along the mekong Delta firing my weapon off a PBR We got hit treetop shells in 75' We hooked up with a calvery div.then I was't Evac'd...Honolulu here I come.Nurses loooove dick washin.Listenin' to all Radio-free America music,you fuck's Know nothin' I'm a fuckin' true American. To all you foreign God fuck's "Fuck you","DON'T TREAD ON ME."
@coaytch Yeah I thought is was shunned too. But I looked it up on lyrics.com to be sure and it said "stunned". Just goes to show you can't always believe what you read on the internet. Thanks for the correction.
This is kick you in the face rock 'n roll. There are some good bands out there today but they're not making music like this, Autograph's "Turn Up The Radio" or April Wine's "Roller". I want to hear music that makes me want to move, not slash my wrists.
i saw them last summer in Dayton , Ohio . they rocked the Fraze pavillion just like it was 73 all over again which was the first time i saw them live . in some ways i hate getting older but we had all the cool bands to jam to . long live R&R !
point taken...I did not realize the Heap was UK for a coouple of years. But the music was the first I heard stateside in over a year...and, well everything around me seemed to be moving so fast back here....the Heap helped me settle my thoughts down..is that wierd or what?
@SHELLHEAD1961 how ya doin man, hey listen,i dont know where ya live,but,im in canada,an i gotta place you can chekout,--- its called dr.disk on ouellette ave,they have a ton of old albums in windsor ontario,i dunno maybe chek out .com ,not sure.but an excellent placeto grab alotta old stuff on vinel
@darley1958 WTF does that have to do with my comment...when you just look for something to crticize, you show how small you really are...God Bless the United States of America!
@mdawg1238 It was not a criticism but an observation( big difference)wherein British bands made Americans feel good...so I guess we should say thanks to Britain for that dont you?
@gklcinc you are welcome, gk. I will never trust my government...but I would go fight tomorrow for my country. There are bad people everywhere...and sometime you have to deal with them.
@mdawg1238 thanks for your service to our great country....we wouldnt be so great if it werent for folks like you sacrificing life and limb to ensure our freedom.....the cost of freedom is a high price paid by the brave few while the meek enjoy the fruits sheltered from it all. All gave some but some gave all. God bless brother.
@modread666 : thank you to our brothers and sisters for your service to our country, we did not appreciate you at that time, Lord help us if we do not learn to treasure our warriors...
Heard this when I was in the Army, overseas, back in '73...played it non-stop on my Sony Reel to Reel tape deck. It helped keep my sanity in crazy Bangkok, Thailand ...haha.
I just mostly translated the Italian caption above while listening to the song. I don't know Italian. The lesson is: Uriah Heep gives you spooky powers.
WELL U MAY HAVE BEEN BORN IN THE WRONG TIME PERIOD . BUT I MUST SAY YOU HAVE TASTE !!!! AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY !!! I'M A VIET NAM VET 1968 AND 69 USMC ONLY THING WE WE COULD GET WAS A F RADIO WHEN WE WEREN'T TRYING TO STAY DRY AND EATING L L R'S N C'S ALL NASTY COLD... ONLY GOT BACK TO DANANG ONCE IN A WHILE WHEN WE DID IT WAS PARTY DOWN !!! 15 CENT BEER AT THE E-CLUB AND THE AWESOME MUSIC OF THOSE DAYS !!!!!
I was born in the wrong time period. My generation gets crap of music, no talent, using computer made tunes, and has little to no meaning. Jammed out to this while in iraq. Some long days with very little happening, this got me through the day.
@Prpich25 You must live a very unfulfilled and pitiful existence...there are plenty of good bands of this generation. Mars Volta, for instance. Check Pain of Salvation's Road Salt One and Two albums.
@TheWatrosFly Ha, how long did it take you to come up with that one? Well a troll is gonna troll right? About the only thing im gonna "Check" is the spam link to the right. That crap you pass as music is good for emo, but thats about it. I can see now why you choose the words "Unfilfilled" and "Pitiful". Self refelection eh? What a douche.
ACTUALLY I WAS A GREAT FAN OF THEIRS GREAT IS KINDA SOFT TRY HUMONGOUS RIGHT ON AND BREAK OUT THE LYSERGEGIC DIALETHEMIDE NEVER COULD SPELL THAT AND WHERE ARE YOU AT TIMOTHY LEARY ? HAD EVERY ALBUM AND OF COURSE PINK FLOYDS LIVED IN CALIF AT THAT TIME JJ ' HENDRIX DOORS SPOOKY TOOTH WHAT MORE COULD A GENERATION ASK FOR ??? CHER SONG ... IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME I DON'T BELIEVE I WOULD LEAVE .. 4-4-49 PARTY ON AND LET'S LISTEN TO THE MUSIC
E' stato molte settimane 1° nelle classifiche UK ed USA......e credo che assieme a Gypsy ; the spell .e july morrning..sia tra i pezzi più rappresentativi....dell'era Byron...
This is my first of..ya missed it by THAT much..concerts, didn't take long for next one either, I was trying to find out where Mountain was playing, nine hundred times we'd get directions to, Mt. Fuji...as with a song that I'd like, I'd buy the LP just for THAT song, but with UH, it was better, I'd buy their LP just for the artwork, and my first buy led me down a long winding road.
@godforge2003 Thanks man. I had liked this song but your insight has opened my eyes. screw stravinsky and mozart too. what the heck. how many years shall we make the cut off when we don't like stuff any more? You're an idiot.
@karlmoles65 my 1st was on a home recorded 8-trac.. believe I still have it in a box someplace with the Radio Shack single component player. That box also shared with many K-tels too. \m/ on
@karlmoles65 Never had any K-Tel cassetes but have a couple of the lp's. :) Have one called Hit Machine I think...from '76. Has Island Girl for E. John, and KISS R&R All night etcc.. :) Good memory. Had forgotten about it...
I knew this guy that was in a local band, they played this song. I had never heard this song before and when I heard them sing, I just loved it..Good Music..
being 46 years old, these guys are a tad before my time. Although as i grew up i realized that if you were cruising around listening to these guys. you were one of the "cool people". which my older brother made sure teach me by example..god i miss those days..kids these day just seem to be so mean...just my opinion tho (- =
Uriah Heep has an album titled "Very 'eavy, Very 'umble" which is a reference to the character Uriah Heap in Charles Dickens' novel "I'm so very 'umble".
They were probably not named after the biblical Uriah.
@Syzygy60 Uriah the Hittite was the Husband of Bath-Sheba The woman King David saw bathing on her roof had an affair with , then had Uriah Killed when she became pregnant
@Syzygy60 Uriah was one of King David's 30 Mighty Men, the Husband of Bath Sheba who David comitted adultery with and was sent to the worst part of a batttle abandoned and killed when Bath Sheba became pregnant by David
@TheDean283 No shots needed, smoked a couple of doob's and droped a hit. what i can tell you is if you had to use the mens room, you might be safer outside, for sure cleaner!
One of the first bands I played with played Uriah Heep and we painted one of the album covers on the wall. Smokin' and playing U/H. No better memories.
This was my 1st concert in Detroit back in '72 or '73, man what a show I was hooked from then on & still am. They don't have concerts like that anymore, if i recall i paid like 10 or 11 bucks for floor seats.
Riding in my little 1967 Red Volkswagen Beetle with custom A/C Smokin' big Cheech & Chong big Bambu Joints...Listen to my recorded cassette tape on my anti-trac machine.....Sony Deck...Home Speakers...Ice Chest full of Miller Ponys and only 15...CAUSE IN LA WE COULD DRIVE AT 15!!!!
In the early 70's, when I was still in high school, I thought that David Byron was the worst singer I had ever heard. I wish to fuck I knew what I was thinking when I formed THAT opinion.
It is my Odysssey to a place where human life meant nothing...especially my own. An eloquent chronicle of the events that took me over there. I came back emaciated and withdrawn and dirty. I lost contact with every friend and family member for almost an entire year. My mother thought I was dead. My brother thought I became an opium addict. The fact is, I was taken to a place that I am too ashamed to ever openly talk about. I was in a survival mode.
I have existed in that mode ever since.

One of the first bands I played with played Uriah Heep and we painted one of the album covers on the wall. Smokin' and playing U/H. No better memories.

This was my 1st concert in Detroit back in '72 or '73, man what a show I was hooked from then on & still am. They don't have concerts like that anymore, if i recall i paid like 10 or 11 bucks for floor seats.

In the early 70's, when I was still in high school, I thought that David Byron was the worst singer I had ever heard. I wish to fuck I knew what I was thinking when I formed THAT opinion.
