All our times have come
Here but now they're gone Seasons don't fear the reaper Nor do the wind the sun or the rain (we can be like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper) We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper) Baby I'm your man La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la Valentine is done Here but now they're gone Romeo and Juliet Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet) 40,000 men and women everyday (like Romeo and Juliet) 40,000 men and women everyday (redefine happiness) Another 40,000 coming everyday (we can be like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper) We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper) Baby I'm your man La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la Love of two is one Here but now they're gone Came the last night of sadness And it was clear she couldn't go on Then the door was open and the wind appeared The candles blew then disappeared The curtains flew then he appeared (saying don't be afraid) Come on baby (and she had no fear) And she ran to him (then they started to fly) They looked backward and said goodbye (she had become like they are) She had taken his hand (she had become like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) |

Clock strikes twelve and moon drops burst
Out at you from their hiding place Like acid and oil on a madman's face His reason tends to fly away Like lesser birds on the four winds Like silver scrapes in May And now the sand's become a crust Most of you have gone away, you have gone away Oh, come Susie, dear, let's take a walk Just out there upon the beach I know you'll soon be married And you'll want to know where winds come from Well it's never said at all On the map that Carrie reads Behind the clock back there you know At the Four Winds Bar Hey, hey Hey, hey Four winds at the Four Winds Bar Two doors locked and windows barred One door to let to take you in The other one just mirrors it Hey, hey Hey, hey Uh, hellish glare and inference The other one's a duplicate The queenly flux, eternal light Or the light that never warms Yes, the light that never, never warms Oh, the light that never Never warms Never warms Never warms The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst Out at you from their hiding place Miss Carrie nurse and Susie dear Would find themselves at Four Winds Bar It's the nexus of the crisis And the origin of storms Just the place to hopelessly Encounter time and then came me... Hey, hey Hey, hey Hey, hey Hey, hey Call me Desdinova Eternal light These gravely digs of mine Will surely prove a sight And don't forget my doll Fixe the consequence Astronomy... a star...

So grab your rose and ring side seat,
We're back home at Conry's bar The blond girl with her tattoo, Reds and wine, cokes of course Oh my suzy, my suzy, Why did we ever start It's morning now, you'd never know The gin, the gin, glows in the dark, glows in the dark And underneath, the black light, Underneath it all Four and forty redheads meet, Come to doom 'til the dawn With threats of gas and rose motif Their lips apart like a swollen rose Their tongues extend, and then retract A redcap, a redcap, before the kiss, before the kiss. Doors like flint and window panes An endless shadow bar The owner's boys have gone to work To stop big deals behind the bar While outside on the turnpike They got this new hit tune Where thrills become as cheap as gas And gas as cheap as thrills One thrill and mundane here at last Expect the cross one more Lecherous invisible Beware the limping cat Whose black teeth grip between loose jaws Still ripe and fully bloomed A rose that's not from anywhere That you would know or I would care And the owners boys act most cheerfully Back home at Conry's bar When their patrons' thoughts at last Grow too big for their skulls And awful things are happening We've let this drama fold And now the time has come at last To crush the motif of the rose. So grab your rose and ring side seat We're back home at Conry's bar The blond girl with her tattoo Reds and wine, cokes of course Oh my suzy, my suzy Why did we ever start It's morning now, you'd never know The gin, the gin, glows in the da |

I Guess I'll See You Dancin' In The Ruins Tonight! Dancin' In The Ruins! Guess I'll See You Dancin' In The Ruins Tonight! There's Laughter Where I Used To See Your Tears.

Raise your can of beer on high And seal your fate forever Our best years have past us by The golden age of leather This was the night not long to come in the year of our Lord A.D. Where in a desert way-house, poised on the brink of eternity Four and ninety studded horsemen closed the knot of honor As only drunken soldiers can And passed from man to man, a wanton child to dead to care That each would find his pleasure as he might For this fantastic night was billed as nothing less than the end of an age A last crusade, a final outrage, in this day of flacid plumage And there was worn no cloth but leather Made supple by years of stinging cinders And here were seen the scars of age For age had been the common call for one last night together Down colored the sky (the ritual feast) Some had died (they were buried with their bikes) Each grabbed a rag (from a man with a sack) Torn strips of color (the red and the black) We made a vow to give it all we had to give We made a vow to die as we had lived They flew the colors, they began to fight They flailed at each other like bugs at a light Bodies and bikes beyond repair Smell of oil and gas in the air Then the wind whipped the desert with a giant hand And the humans and the Harleys caught the shifting sand And the old ranger weathered the storm And he topped the rise by the middle of morn He saw rippled dunes, calm and surreal And a glint of a shaft of chromium steel Golden age |

Well I'm up there beside the magic man And he layed some tricks for me He said you do need help my friend I whispered, obviously He laid a spread of Jacks and Queens And he begged me take my pick But every face that had your face I cried out, I am sick Chorus: Sick of hauling your love around Want to run my train alone But the engine tracks straight through your heart And weighs me like a stone Oh it's a hard love to love you it takes up all my time Having you so familiar like past lives and nursery rhymes So I gave away the pictures and your golden ring And the phone calls you sent me and the silver birds that sing Then the man he told me something that really brought me down Your things were blown away it's true but you were still in town Chorus: The magician left a message, it flashes when I hide Accept the chains of loving, Accept the rails remove yourself from her side Do without her love As I lay back in the speeding train, I keep it by my side I could mail a letter to you but I still have my pride Chorus Three times I've sent you back from me three times my boat's gone dry And three times I've seen the shooting shark lighting up the sky Oh it's a hard love to love you babe it takes my breath away The fourth time round is the last time round there's nothing else to say |

록 그룹중에는 음반보다는 실황 공연에서 진가를 발휘하는 그룹들이 많이 있는데 BOC
(Blue Oyster Cult)가 그 대표적인 그룹중 하나이다. 레이저 광선을 실황 공연 무대에서 처음 사용한 그룹으로 알려진 이들은 뉴욕 언더그라운드에서 활약한 브루스 스프링스틴, 패티 스미스 등과 함께 대중적인 성공을 거둔 실력파이기도 하다. 1970년 Soft White Underbelly 와 Stalk-Forrest Group 이 합쳐져 결성된 BOC는 1972년 데뷔 음반 'Blue Oyster Cult'를 발표하고 이듬해인 1973년에 커버를 보고 있으면 심한 현기증을 느끼게 하는 'Tyranny And Mutation'을 발표했다. 이 음반에는 이들 공연의 단골 연주곡인 Hot Rails to Hell 을 비롯하여 7 Screaming Diz-Busters 등이 실려있는데 묵직한 헤비메틀 사운드와 Donald Roeser, Eric Bloom, Allen Lanier, 3인의 기타연주는 팬들의 관심을 끌기에 충분했다. 1974년 'Secret Treaties'에 이어 1975년에는 2장짜리 공연 음반 'On Your Feet or on Your Knees' 을 발표하면서 Steppenwolf 의 Born to Be Wild 와 연주곡인 Buck's Boogie를 실었다. 1976년에는 그들의 최대 히트곡 (Don't Fear) The Reaper가 실린 'Agents of Fortune'이 나왔고 1977년에는 최고 걸작 Spectres가 발표되었다. 이 음반은 전작들에 비해 다소 사운드가 약해졌다는 평가를 받았으나 발라드인 I Love the Night를 비롯하여 주술적인 Nosferatu 와 영화로 만들어져 유명해진 고질라를 노래한 Godzilla등이 담겨있다. 공연에 자신감이 있는 BOC는 1978년 2번째 공연음반 'Some Enchanted Evening'을 발매했고 1979년에는 다소 평범한 'Mirrors'를 1980년에는 'Cultosaurus Erectus'를 발표하였다. 1981년 BOC는 The Doors의 기타리스트 로비 크리거를 초빙하여 그룹으로서는 3번째 실황 공연 음반이었으며 더블앨범인 'Extraterrestrial Live'를 발표 하였는데, 이 음반은 이들 BOC의 국내 최초 라이센스 발매반이기도 하다. 이 라이센스 음반은 더블 음반에서 곡을 간추려 싱글 음반으로 발매가 되었는데, 그로인해 아름다운 커버까지 싱글로 발매되는 아쉬움을 남겼다. 1970년대 초중반 헤비메틀 사운드와 악마적인 공연 분위기 연출로 인기를 끌었던 BOC는 80년대 들어 'Fire of Unknown Origin'(1981), 'The Revolution by Night'(1983)등을 냈지만 세월의 흐름을 어쩌지 못하고 점차 잊혀져 가는 그룹이 되었다. 블랙사바스와 어깨를 나란히 하던..."악마의 음악"이라는 평을 들었던 그룹... 레이저 광선을 이용한 공연은 "Blue Oyster Cult" 의 트레이드마크였다... 몽환적인 분위기와 사악하고 그로데스크한 이미지가 결합된 Live는 당시('70)로는 획기적인 사건이었다... 때문에 종교단체와 보수 층으로부터 거센 반발을 불러 일으키기도 한 락계의 악동들이다... 이 앨범은 이들의 싱글로는 최대의 성공을 거둔 "(Don't Fear) The Reaper"(12위)가 수록된 '76년 4집 앨범이다... 미국 뉴욕 출신의 그룹인 이들은 헤비메탈의 원류(原流)를 논할 때 빼놓을 수 없는 중요한 그룹이며...이들의 사운드적 특성은 '60년대 후반을 휩쓴 사이키델릭과 블루스 리바이벌에 의한 하드락 대신 로큰.롤의 부기 사운드와 리프 중심의 심플하고 강력한 사운드로 정평이 나있는 그룹이기도 하다... |

By silverfish imperetrix, whose incorrupted eye
Sees through the charms of doctors and their wives By salamander, drake, and the power that was undine Rise to claim Saturn, ring and sky By those who see with their eyes close They know me by my black telescope Your green tree mantle from which these things derive A lens of quartz and refract spoke that crystal lens Whose crystal rope once bound me to those Doctors and wives When my vision was oh, so cloudy And I saw things through two eyes I am a sailor on the raging depths And I know a thing or two Back to the corner mates and over the side Yes I know a thing or two By silverfish imperetrix, whose incorrupted eye Sees through the charms of doctors and their wives By salamander, drake, and the power that was undine Rise to claim Saturn, ring and sky By those who see with their eyes closed you'll know me by my black telescope Before my great conversion when the ridge was closed Before my visit to the workshop of telescopes By silverfish imperetrix, whose incorrupted eye sees through the charms of doctors and their wives By salamander, drake, and the power that was undine Rise to claim Saturn, ring and sky By those who see with their eyes closed you'll know me by my black telescope |

from Miracle (기적) by Mark Isham [ost] (2004)
All our times have come
Here but now they're gone Seasons don't fear the reaper Nor do the wind the sun or the rain (we can be like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper) We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper) Baby I'm your man La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la Valentine is done Here but now they're gone Romeo and Juliet Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet) 40,000 men and women everyday (like Romeo and Juliet) 40,000 men and women everyday (redefine happiness) Another 40,000 coming everyday (we can be like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper) We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper) Baby I'm your man La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la Love of two is one Here but now they're gone Came the last night of sadness And it was clear she couldn't go on Then the door was open and the wind appeared The candles blew then disappeared The curtains flew then he appeared (saying don't be afraid) Come on baby (and she had no fear) And she ran to him (then they started to fly) They looked backward and said goodbye (she had become like they are) She had taken his hand (she had become like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) |
