U.F.O. - Love To Love (1977) (Remaster w/Lyrics) [720p HD] ~ORIGINAL VIDEO~

[Video #29] from http://www.youtube.com/user/MetalGuruMessiah the address for MetalGuruMessiah's Musical Paint Box! Check out my other videos!

The 29th video in my series is the rock opus "Love To Love" from U.F.O.'s 1977 album Lights Out.

This 7+ minute song was just one of the great things about U.F.O.'s classic and critically acclaimed Lights Out album. It's just a seriously epic rock ballad, with some absolutely brilliant guitar work from Michael Schenker and Paul Raymond (rhythm).

I wanted to create videos for some of my favorite U.F.O. songs, and although I was already pretty far along with videos for two other U.F.O. tracks, I just couldn't get "Love To Love" out of my mind.....so I halted the other two and began work on it.

I knew going in that it was going to be difficult, actually a monster for several reasons.....it's looooooong, contains numerous wildly varying sections defined by extreme tempo changes, and (usually the most daunting challenge of all, for me at least) the lyrics provide very little to hang images on.

I also wanted to work a couple of clips of the band performing into the song. Actually, there is only about 3 very brief clips used over and over. A few more clips would have helped, there were obvious spots that called for them, but I never got around to plugging them in.

I've worked as hard, or maybe even harder, on this song as on any of my previous videos.....and it never really cooperated and worked the way i had hoped. I struggled to make it find any cohesiveness. I achieved some eventually, but this was surely one of the most difficult videos I've ever attempted.

If you don't like it.......just close your eyes......and enjoy the tune.......cause that's one thing that is perfect! LOL!

[Lyrics]
Oh it's been too many times and I can't go back
Night bars, guitars, rundown motels like shacks
What it mounts up to I don't want it at all
Lost you and I want you today
(1) Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
To be something, to be near you
Don't say that youll never know
Love to love to love you
[INSTRUMENTAL]
Half the time it could seem funny
The other half is just too sad
This west bound moon's only rise and fall
Lost you and I want you today
(1) Repeat
To be something, to be near you
I don't know where I'm goin' to
I've tried and I need you to stay
[INSTRUMENTAL]
