테슬라는 1980년대에 활동한 수많은 팝 메탈 그룹들 중 인기의 면에 있어서 둘째가라면 서러웠을 그룹이다. 대표곡 'Love Song' 하나만으로도 여전히 국내에서 사랑 받고 있는 그들은 아직까지도 활동을 이어가며 질긴 생명력을 과시하고 있다. 본작은 그들이 라이코디스크로 적을 옮겨 발표한 2007년 신보로 귀에 착착 감기는 멜로디와 중력있는 연주를 통해 자신들의 기량이 녹슬지 않았음을 다시 한번 확인시켜주고 있다. 리메이크로 구성되어 있는 본작에서 가장 빛나는 순간은 단연 딥 퍼플, 에릭 클랩튼, 레드 제플린의 원곡을 다시 부르고 있는 부분들이다. .... ....

Takin' my time Choosin' my lines Try'n' to decide what to do Looks like my stop Don't wanna get off Got myself hung up on you

Places I've known Things that I'm growin' Don't taste the same without you I got my self in The worst mess I've been And I find myself starvin' without you

Oh please believe me, I'd hate to miss the train Oh yeah yeah oh yeah And if you leave me, I won't be late again oh no, oh no, oh no yeah, yeah I've got a feeling, yeah I've got a feeling
All these years I've been wandering around wondering how come nobody told me All that I was looking for was somebody who looked like you
I've got a feeling that keeps me on my toes oh yeah, oh yeah I've got a feeling that everybody knows oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah yeah, yeah I have hot a feeling, yeah Yeah
Everybody had a hard year Everybody had a good time Everybody had a wet dream Everybody saw the sun shine Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah Everybody had a good year Everybody let their hair down Everybody pulled their socks up Everybody put their foot down oh yeah

I saw a light, just up ahead But I couldn't seem to rise up from my bed I'm not alone, than I am People seem to think I'm superman But I watch for the love I'm living in the day of the eagle, the eagle not the, dove
It's like a weight, that brings me down If I don't move, I'm on the ground It's in my mind, Its in my soul It's telling me the things I can't be told It's a watch for the love Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove
Another day, another night I want to love, they want to fight I need the time, I got to be alone I got to meet a lover on my own I watch for the love Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove
People moving out, people moving in. Why, because of the color of their skin. Run, run, run but you sure can't hide. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Vote for me and I'll set you free. Rap on, brother, rap on. Well, the only person talking about love thy brother is the...(preacher.) And it seems nobody's interested in learning but the...(teacher.) Segregation, determination, demonstration, integration, Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation. Ball of confusion. Oh yeah, that's what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey. The sale of pills are at an all time high. Young folks walking round with their heads in the sky. The cities ablaze in the summer time. And oh, the beat goes on. Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul. Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growing up too soon. Politicians say more taxes will solve everything. And the band played on. So, round and around and around we go. Where the world's headed, nobody knows.
(Instrumental)
Oh, great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you. Just a ball of confusion.
Oh yeah, that's what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey. Fear in the air, tension everywhere. Unemployment rising fast, the Beatles new record's a gas. And the only safe place to live is on an Indian reservation. And the band played on. Eve of destruction, tax deduction, city inspectors, bill collectors, Mod clothes in demand, population out of hand, suicide, too many bills, Hippies moving to the hills. People all over the world are shouting, 'End the war.' And the band played on.
(Instrumental)
Great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you. Sayin'... ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey. Sayin'... ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey. Ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey. Ball of confusion.
Seventeen, a nature's queen You'll know what I mean Twenty-one, a long one You can see the numbers run Now you look so peaceful, Lyin' there asleep With the wings of God above you Before the spirits meet
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Shadow earth is closin' in Above the lamps in your street Lucifer goes walkin' Down for you to meet Minutes pass so slowly by The hands on your clock Heaven's door don't open When you knock
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
With the darkness closin' in Will the light reveal your soul? One sweet kiss On your clay cold lips Long, long sleep you'll never know Where do we go, where do we go Where do we go from here?
Seventeen, a nature's queen You'll know what I mean Twenty-one, a long one You can see the numbers run Now you look so peaceful Lyin' there asleep With the wings of God above you Before the spirits meet
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Take me across the water 'cause I need some place to hide. I done the rancher's daughter and I sure did hurt his pride.
Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah.
Well, there's a hundred miles of desert lies between his hide and mine. I don't need no food, no water, Lord, 'cause I'm running out of time.
Fightin', killin', wine and women gonna put me to my grave. Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin'. nothing left to save But my life.
Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah.
Stood on a ridge and shunned religion, thinking the world was mine. I made my break and a big mistake, stealing when I should have been buying.
All that fightin', killin', wine and women gonna put me to an early grave. Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin', nothing left to save But my life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life.
So I stood on a ridge and shunned religion, thinking the world was mine. I made my break and a big mistake, stealing when I should have been buying. I was stealing when I should have been buying, I was stealing when I should have been buying.
Stealing When I should have been buying Stealing When I should have been buying Stealing when I should have been buying Stealing When I should have been buying Stealing When I should have been buying Stealing, whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah Stealing When I should have been buying Stealing Rock and roll!
Bell bottom blues, you made me cry I don't want to lose this feeling And if I could choose a place to die It would be in your arms
Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you? Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back? I'd gladly do it, because I don't want to fade away Give me one more day, please I don't want to fade away In your heart I want to stay
It's all wrong but it's alright The way that you treat me, baby Once I was strong but I lost the fight But you won't find a better loser
Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you? Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back? I'd gladly do it, because I don't want to fade away Give me one more day, please I don't want to fade away In your heart I want to stay
Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you? Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back? I'd gladly do it, because I don't want to fade away Give me one more day, please I don't want to fade away In your heart I want to stay
Bell bottom blues don't say goodbye We're surely gonna meet again And if we do, don't you be surprised If you find me with another lover, oh
Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you? Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back? I'd gladly do it, because I don't want to fade away Give me one more day, please I don't want to fade away In your heart I want to stay I don't want to fade away Give me one more day, please I don't want to fade away In your heart I want to stay I don't want to fade away Give me one more day, please I don't want to fade away In your heart I want to stay
I met a gin-soaked bar-room queen in Memphis She tried to take me upstairs for a ride She had to heave me right across her shoulder 'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind
It's the honky tonk women Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
I laid a divorcee in New York City I had to put up some kind of a fight The lady then she covered me in roses She blew my nose and then she blew my mind
It's the honky tonk women Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's the honky tonk women Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's the honky tonk women Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune Something to make us all happy Do anything take us out of this gloom Sing a song, play guitar Make it snappy You are the one who can make us all laugh But doing that you break out in tears Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had We wouldn't have known you all these years
