    See in the flame of life
    And my spell is our lie
    Taste the love
    The Lucifer's magic that makes you numb
    The passion and all the pain are one
    You're sleeping in the fire
    Taste the love
    The Lucifer's magic that makes you numb
    You feel what it does and you're drunk on love
    You're sleeping in the fire
    I gaze and the flame and fire burn
    And cry out the name of which I yearn

    W. A. 'S. P. Шикарная группа, одна из лучших представителей тяжёлого рока. Вровень с Аксептом, Майденом, Аси диси
    , я на ней вырос. Музыка моей молодости. Я 69 года рождения. В предыдущем обзоре товарищ "критик" обвиняет их в несовсем на его взгляд хороших текстах. Это рок. Тут про голубую луну не поют. Для этого есть дешёвая российская эстрада, которая за последние 50 лет абсолютно не изменилась. Ничто её не берет. С уважением поклонник хорошей музыки.

    They sounded great in the 80s and just as good in 2000. Blackie's got stage stamina and a voice, can't say that about Motley Crue.
