The Cross - Hand Of Fools

A video I made for Hand Of Fools by The Cross. Written by Spike Edney and Peter Noone.

Lyrics:
Oooh, time
Time
Time

Streets echo the last retreat
Dust falls to the ground
A mother cries help

While walking in paradise
Look around and you'll see
We're stripping it bare
Soon they'll be no place to turn

Who plays the hand of fools
With who's God given right
It's outta control
Don't it show

While profit oils the big machine
And we've short changed the facts
Where does it stop
And the life blood is slipping away - everyday

And who plays the hand of fools
With who's God given right
It's outta control
It's outta control

And who plays the hand of fools
In a war torn and savage place
It's outta control
And it chills to the bone

And who plays the hand of fools
With who's God given right
It's outta control
It's outta control

And who plays the hand of fools
In a war torn and savage place
It's outta control
And it chills to the bone

And who plays the hand of fools
With who's God given right
It's outta control
It's outta control

Who, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Who, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Who, oooh, oooh, oooh
Who, oooh, oooh, oooh

Who, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Who, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Who, oooh, oooh, oooh
Who, oooh, oooh, oooh
Who

Za, za, zoo

Why. The cross wrote some stuff that queen later rerecorded. Those things turned out to be at least minor hits. Rodger is a terrific singer...

[SaraChekov]

Roger I love you! you're fantastic!!!

[alpisko]

a great song...

[RogerTQ]

@coelho4187 @coelho4187 but it was sung by Freddie and in this case it was no "real" Cross song.

In Fact Roger uses many "sounds" created by Queen. (Fat bottomend girls and the "fantasy" of BohRap on "shove it"!)

[poochickenone]

I like this cross song, a lot of RTs songs he wrote in the 80s have more of a reflection on today.

Even though I didn't think Roger write this one.

[Geisterjaeger85]

Cool video

[doctor627who]

saw the cross about 5 times always a great show and roger should sing more!!

[sweetelflady]

Beautiful song, wonderful Roger, a good video! well done!

[coelho4187]

Heaven for Everyone: originally by The Cross in '87 (I think), then of course on Made in Heaven in '95.

[romavictora]

what did Queen record that was a CROSS song?

[RogerTQ]

...and even though QUEEN recorded some of the songs later, there was still enough really good stuff left for the Cross.

Great vid Dave, nicely put together.
