"The sky is red, I don't understand,
Past midnight I still see the land.
People are sayin' the woman is damned,
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand.
The city's a blaze, the town's on fire.
The woman's flames are reaching higher.
We were fools, we called her liar.
All I hear is "Burn!"

I didn't believe she was devil's sperm.
She said, "Curse you all, you'll never learn!
When I leave there's no return."
The people laughed till she said, "Burn!"
Warning came, no one cared.
Earth was shakin', we stood and stared.
When it came no one was spared.
Still I hear "Burn!"

You know we had no time,
we could not even try.
You know we had no time.

You know we had no time,
we could not even try.
You know we had no time.

The sky is red, I don't understand,
Past midnight I still see the land.
People are sayin' the woman is damned,
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand.
Warning came, no one cared.
Earth was shakin, we stood and stared.
When it came no one was spared.
Still I hear "Burn!"

  • bollin can't play his guitar...

  • @foryanto The story was Bolin fell asleep on his arm after getting high the day before . Barely could play here, just muddles though the show . In right form Tommy was an exceptionally talented musician / singer / songwriter . But yes he's not too hot at this gig ,

  • am i right....the video is 'rises over japan' overdubbed with 'last concert in japan' audio mmm m thinks so....

  • All of these musicians were/are virtuosic players

  • You can hear Tommy hasnt learnt the riff properly - Thank the Lord for Jon. Amazing considering even kids do it properly - excuse me?

  • Purple with 3 vocalists, now that's something...although Gillan is better than all of them combined

  • Mistake!

    

  • sempre forti - da vedere DANIEL JAEK 8 SONO LEGGENDA ALL'ELBA non sono i Deep Purple ma...

  • Guitar......
