Hm, what was theirs about?

I thought it might be a cover or something. >_> (Styx covering it I mean)

To my knowledge of the Styx 'Snowblind', it's about the highs and lows of taking snow. If you look up the lyrics, there's one site that had explained it. I don't know if it is still up. but JY sings the low parts. Like the person who took just came off of it. Tommy sings the High parts of the song, As from the veiw of the person who was off of it took it again. I can go more in depth but I'm havving to go soon for dinner. xp

Black Sabbath has a Snowblind but I don't what it is about. Snowblind was written by JY so maybe Black Sabbath covered it, but I've never heard of it being the same song...

Clearly they're two different songs about the same subject (cocaine use) as Black Sabbath wrote their version of it. I love Black Sabbath's version of it, because the music and lyrics perfectly encapsulate the mind of an addict...

The blindness, the denial of reality, the love for their addiction, the utter hopelessness of it...it's amazing.

Snowblind
What you get and what you see
Things that don't come easily
Feeling happy in my vein
Icicles within my brain (cocaine)

Something blowing in my head
Winter's ice, it soon will spread
Death would freeze my very soul
Makes me happy, makes me cold

My eyes are blind but I can see
The snowflakes glisten on the tree
The sun no longer sets me free
I feel there's no place freezing me

Let the winter sun shine on
Let me feel the frost of dawn
Fill my dreams with flakes of snow
Soon I'll feel the chilling glow

Don't you think I know what I'm doing
Don't tell me that it's doing me wrong
You're the one who's really a loser
This is where I feel I belong

Crystal world with winter flowers
Turns my day to frozen hours
Lying snowblind in the sun
Will my ice age ever come?



And...an MP3 of the song for those that haven't heard it: http://s43.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1F8FQ1WXUJQHV0MHBMX0V7Y9OV

And you're glad, why....? (just curious, as there are many different reasons to be glad about that)

I don't like Ozzy. Nor Black Sabbath. Over-rated druggy isn't my type.

Ozzy = over rated druggy.

Black Sabbath however isn't. And seeing as Ozzy didn't actually really do anything for them it's not fair to judge them by him. Especially considering that he was only with them for about the first 10 years out of a 30 + year career.

But if the band had Ozzy in it, I probably don't want to listen to it. Anyways, I just don't like their music.

Right, because the vocalist makes the music....


Just one thing...if the Styx song is about cocaine use also, then how do the members of Styx not qualify as overrated druggies, too? xp

Oh yes. I may have just ******** with the sacred cow, but I went there. ninja

If the Styx fans are going to hi-jack the banner thread, I have every right to hi-jack the Styx thread. xp

Tommy Shaw might have done drugs when he was younger, but he is still coherent now. Oh, sorrow, we're sorry about the banner thread. We moved back to the right thread... eventually.
