The brainchild of former Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, Rainbow quickly developed into one of the '70s most successful heavy metal bands behind charismatic front man Ronnie James Dio. Together, the duo would produce a string of acclaimed albums which are still considered classics of the genre. But the group would change their musical approach numerous times following the singer's departure, eventually confusing and alienating much of their audience. Releasing eight albums during it's decade long run, the band finally came to an end when Blackmore departed to rejoin his old Deep Purple comrades in a full-fledged reunion in 1984. And while the impact of Rainbow's influence has faded with the intervening decades, theirs was a crucial chapter in the development of heavy metal and hard rock.

If I'm high on a hill
She will still be looking down at me
What does she see
That brings her closer every day to my heart
If I'm away from home
And think I'm all alone
She's there, somewhere
I look around to see
And looking back at me
She's there, beware
Creeping like a hungry cat
Seen it before
And I know it can mean that
* The lady's starstruck she's nothing but bad luck
The lady's starstruck running after me
The lady's starstruck she's nothing but bad luck, yeah, yeah
I could fly to the moon
But she'd soon find a way to be there
I never knew for a while
That a smile made 'em really care
She wants a souvenir
To everyone it's clear
She's hooked, one look
She wants a photograph
And everybody laughs
But not me, 'cause I see
She's creeping like a hungry cat
Seen it before and I know it can mean that
*
It used to be a game
Now I can't repeat my name at all
She seems to believe that
I never can refuse her call
She wants a souvenir
To everyone it's clear
She's hooked, one look
She wants a photograph
And everybody laughs
But not me, 'cause I see
She's creeping like a hungry cat
Seen it before and I know it can mean that
* x 2
And back of a tree
I'm looking back at me
Blind and off my state
I've just got to beware
The lady's starstruck
Yes, she's bad luck, bad luck
This is the only band that i believe was heavily underestimated. Brilliant band, amazing guitaritst, fantastic vocalist, Just an all around great classic band
