. - Heaven’s Hung In Black (Hi-Res Audio, 4K-Ultra-HD, Lyrics)

. is an American heavy metal band formed in 1982 by Blackie Lawless, who is the only remaining original member of the band. They emerged from the same Los Angeles scene that spawned Van Halen, Mötley Crüe, Dokken, Ratt, Quiet Riot, Guns N’ Roses, Great White, L.A. Guns, Leatherwolf and others. The band’s popularity peaked in the 1980s, yet they continue to record and tour, making them one of the most enduring of the West Coast heavy metal bands. . gained notoriety for their shock rock themed image, lyrics and live performances. They have sold over 12 million copies of their albums. There has been much speculation over the origin of the band’s name, and whether it actually stands for anything, since it is written as an acronym. One possible interpretation is “White Anglo-Saxon Protestants“, being the original meaning of the acronym. The song “Show No Mercy“, the b-side of the band’s first single “Animal“, contains the repeated lyric, “White Anglo-Saxon / A violent reaction“. The original U.S. release of the band’s debut album . had the words “We Are Sexual Perverts“ inscribed on both sides around the label in the center, while “Winged Assassins“ is inscribed on the spine of the first vinyl pressing. When asked about the band’s name Lawless has avoided giving a straight answer: in one interview he answered, “We Ain’t Sure, Pal.“ In another, broadcast on the radio program Metal Shop, Lawless said that if you didn’t know what it meant (implying White Anglo-Saxon Protestant), “It’s a bug“. Blackie Lawless (.’s front man) commented for this song: “The title is from a quote from American President Abraham Lincoln when he saw the casualty reports from the battle of Gettysburg, and after reading that he said, ’Tonight the Heaven’s are hung in black.’ So I took that idea and I wrote it from a point of view of a U.S. soldier in Iraq who’s on the verge of dying and he’s standing at the Gates of Heaven but St. Peter tells him that because of all the fighting that has been taking place, they have no more room in Heaven, and that he must come back some other time. So based on that understand that the verses are St. Peter talking, and the chorus is the soldier.“ Lyrics I can’t take anymore I have no more wings I can’t take anymore The gates of heaven sealed Don’t you hear me Don’t you hear me Don’t you fear me Of never coming back Do you know what it’s like? When heaven’s hung in black I can’t take anymore Our walls are black and bleed I can’t take anymore No rooms here for your screams Don’t you hear me Don’t you hear me Don’t you fear me Of never coming back Oh, no more tears please Hanging heaven black No.. don’t you leave me to die! Don’t you leave me to die! Don’t you leave me to die! No.. don’t you leave me to die! And you’ll know what it’s like The wailing wall of sighs Hanging heaven black And you’ll know what it’s like When paradise is blind When heaven’s hung in black Time... How can you say that I’ve no time Am I blind ? Now you say that heaven’s blind, yeah Across the bridge of sighs, blind, time, time, oh Lord Don’t you leave me to die! No, don’t you leave me to die! Don’t you leave me to die! No Lord, don’t you leave me to die! And you’ll know what it’s like The wailing wall of sighs Hanging heaven black And you’ll know what it’s like When paradise is blind Painting heaven black Across the bridge of sighs You’re losing heaven’s light Heaven’s hung in black - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Notes by deep46blue for Friends, Artists, Composers, Photographers, Videomakers: ✔ If you would like to submit your track, visual or any else art for promotion. ✔ If you want to add any kind of information which belongs to the video (audio or visual) ✔ If you have any issues regarding any of the videos.
