SHOOTING STAR Lyrics
Written by Jon Leon
© Earache Records 2010

Verse 1
See the dragon's tears that fall
For the one that brought such light to all
In a flash of dawn you rode the wind
Into the sun to a higher call

Your voice a siren in our hearts
An eagles flight that soars so high
A mystical place within us all
Where magic and dreams can never die

(chorus)
YOU NOW FLY IN A BRIGHTER SKY AND YOUR MAGIC WILL NEVER DIE
A MEMORY BURNING IN OUR HEARTS-A RAINBOW RISING HIGH
FORGED OF STEEL IN THE MIGHTY POWER
OF METALLIC ELECTRIC GUITAR
YOUR SONGS FOREVER BURNING BRIGHT
IN THE LIGHT OF A SHOOTING STAR

Verse 2
Metal Gods can never die
You'll always be flying high
Now were all stargazers
Watching you rock with the Gods on high

Up above there's now a rainbow
As your soul soars rocking in the skies
In the light of your song the magic lies
-so every day the sun shall rise

(chorus)

(Bridge)

LOOK TO THE HORIZON AS THE COLORS SHINE SO BRIGHT
MEMORIES THAT STILL REMAIN BURNING IN THE NIGHT
RAINBOW EYES LOOK UP THROUGH TEARS
AS THE ANGELS SING YOUR SONG
FOREVER ALIVE IN THE SOULS OF ALL
YOUR METAL HEARTS STILL BEATING STRONG!!

UP IN THE HEAVENS
I SEE A RAINBOW
THE SUN IS RISING
YOUR SOULS NOW FREE TO RIDE THE SKY........

definately sounds like the singer is channeling Bruce Dickinson in parts which isn't a bad thing IMO. 2 thumbs up for real singers in metal.

[Palantyre]

If I were Dio, I would come back from the dead to personally shake these guys' hands. This song is that fucking fantastic.

Flying tigers, and yes its a great album, i have it sitting on a shelf here.

[jtimonen]

Great song. Superb Peter Ellis vocals.

You might also want to check out the song "Midnight Queen" by Peter Ellis` new band "Monument" -> best described as a perfect blend of classic Iron Maiden and Judas Priest....both the music and the vocals :)

[DeathDuoCovers]

This song needs a ripping guitar solo to honor Dio.

[ADayToRemember709]

Iron maiden lol

[theraj662]

The singer sounds a lot like Geoff Tate.

[stickmaster546]

Definitely reminds me of Maiden but with their own touch to it. Awesome song!

[jodycrown]

has a slight ozzy vocal sound. still, i think this one is the best produced track they have done. i really like the sound of this one. GTO sounds good, but this sonically sounds good, tight, things mixed really nice.

Which was the previous band of the singer? His voice sounds familiar to me, it's probably a power metal band not widely known from what I can remember.
