Synopsis!
"Turn the Page" is a song written and recorded by Bob Seger.
The song was originally released by Seger in 1973 on his "Back in '72" album. Seger's original version never made the charts, but an evocative live performance on his 1976 Live Bullet album became a mainstay of album-oriented rock radio stations, and still gets significant airplay to this day on classic rock stations. He revealed at his concert in Milwaukee, Wisconsin during his 2006 tour that he had written the song in a hotel room in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.
"Turn the Page" is about the emotional and social ups and downs of a rock musician's life on the road, against a slow tempo and a mournful saxophone part.
The song was later covered by Metallica, as the first single from their 1998 Garage Inc. album, reaching #1 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks; drummer Lars Ulrich had heard the original song while driving across the Golden Gate Bridge and later commented that he thought it "Had James (Hetfield) all over it". Metallica's rendition is taken at much the same tempo as Seger's, but with a heavier feel; the saxophone part is replaced by a high slide guitar line from Kirk Hammett and James Hetfield played a guitar solo before the last run through the chorus. Metallica's music video for the song, directed by Jonas AGinger Lynn Allen.
.....Lyrics.....
On a long and lonesome highway east of omaha
You can listen to the engine's moanin out his one note song
You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wondering the way they always do
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin', you just wish the trip was through
But here I am, on the road again
Here I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing the star again
There I go, turn the page
When you walk into a restaraunt, strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you, as you're shaking of the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode...
Sometimes you can here 'em talk, other times you can't
All the same 'ole cliches: is that a woman or a man?
And you always seem outnumbered, you dare not make a stand
But here I am, on the road again
Here I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing the star again
There I go, turn the page
Out there in the spotlight, your a million miles away
Every ounce of energy, you try to give away
And the sweat pours from your body, like the music that you play...
Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed
With the echos of the amplifiers, ringin' in your head
As you smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what she said
(What she said...)
~.....Instrumental Interlude.....~
But here I am, on the road again
Here I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing the star again
(There I go, turn the page).....End
@hamidlespaul What the hell is going on with you people?? Music is subjective . Some people may not like the song , or others might not listening to metallica . As Like exists , so dislike is acceptable . Stop wreaking out on those who doesn't accept your beliefs
