Eclipse - Wake Me Up Lyrics






Holy wars, holy stories
Protecting a man made cross
Kill yourself get the glory
Rewarded in heaven above

An angry man he bought a gun
Held hostage he snapped and lost it all
He blew 'em up could not be stopped
Blamed it on "god said so"

Wake me up, wake me up I'm dreaming
Wake me up, somebody
Wake me up, wake me up I'm dreaming
Wake me up, wake me up I'm dreaming
Wake me up, this world is crazy
Wake me up, wake me up I'm dreaming

One god's right one is wrong
And sex is a sin to avoid
Dressed in black sings the same song
We are the chosen the few

Now where's the joy and where's the love
Or is it a way to get control
Manipulate, says hell awaits
Telling us "god said so"

Wake me up, wake me up I'm dreaming
Wake me up, somebody
Wake me up, wake me up I'm dreaming
Wake me up, wake me up I'm dreaming
Wake me up, this world is crazy
Wake me up, wake me up I'm dreaming

    Hello all!

    Let me tell you about Neptune! What's happened to this cult band is more or less unbelievable. For how many band can be apart for 30 years and still has the urge to play again, with heart and soul?

    After 30 years apart, Neptune is now back! Armed with with a new record deal, the album will be entitled "Land of Northern" it will be a fantastic 16 page limited special edition, featuring remastered sound, song lyrics, band photos and story and original fantasy cover artwork. To be released in Feb/Mars 2018 by Sonic Age Records.

    "Neptune is widely considered by most heavy metal gurus as one of the best unsigned Epic Metal bands from Sweden in the 80's. With an image and song writing style like a cross between IRON MAIDEN, HEAVY LOAD and MANOWAR, the band penned some great classic heavy metal tunes and managed to gain a cult status among demo collectors and underground metal fans around the globe"

    Read more about this fantastic story on: www.neptune.nu

    Watch & listen to the first song on the upcoming album: https://youtu.be/GO4zzGadqRU

  29. T.... S....

    Reminds me of 80s era Dokken interpreted through the sensibilities of Scandinavian kids who grew up without Nu-Metal toxifiying their brains.

    T.... S....

    We used NU-Metal albums to put our beers on to cover the table...Cheers!

  30. p.... o....

    Aerosmith in Madrid, you're fucking great , you rock 🤘

  31. T.... Q....

    the way this song fades out is so cool

  32. T.... R....

    great video!

  33. R.... N....

    Enter drums very best...! :-)

  34. A.... W....

    Is it only me who thinks the lead singer kinda looks and sounds like Erik Gronwall from H.E.A.T??

    A.... W....

    I always thought it was!!!

  35. v.... ....

    Nope not Jake E Lee. He actually plays & sounds like Zakk Wylde during his Ozzy years especially "No Rest for the Wicked"

  36. y.... g....

    ronnie james Dio resucited...brutality. more progresive... hi from venezuela for us

  37. S.... ....

    These should totally tour with Crazy Lixx and H.E.A.T... Throw Danger Danger in there for bonus points.

  38. D.... G....

    84 people who downvote this are dead inside.

  39. D.... S....

    cool stuff. very catchy riffs. 80s forever minus the glam

  40. j.... r....

    https://youtu.be/-AxZjcmQNmA

  41. C.... P....

    me transmite una fuerza impresionante la manera de vivirlo! love metal!

  42. M.... M....

    In addition to the others, the bass sound and bass playing are awesome whatsoever, remind me of Bob Daisley.

  43. b.... ....

    It’s a real badass! I like it!

  44. D.... D....

    To Fall in love from the 1st sound! this is really cool!

  45. m.... ....

    These guys are good!   I am an 80's rocker and love to find bands that are keeping the torch burning!    If you like these guys, check out Black Tora, Ragdoll, Electro Nomicon, and Mach22.   Young bands that are rocking!

  46. m.... ....

    great band!

  47. B.... D....

    Am I the only one who thinks drummer Robban Back is/was the best thing about this band? That guy plays with so much perfect energy, rhythm, passion, enthusiasm, persona, and power! Too bad he left :<(

    B.... D....

    I agree ! the drummer is the best thing about this bamd,or "was".. I should say! He stood out the second I started listening to the song. Great power with precision, reminds me of Dio's first drummer (name?) but plays hard and fast..

    B.... D....

    +m.patrick nogueira But the band is a great band, all musicians are top shelf... singer has a great voice...but the drummer did stand out amongst them all....

    B.... D....

    Bill Day Yeah he was great but dont worry the new drummer is incredible - I have seen him live he was amazing

  48. a.... ....

    So... to the people who say "Rock is dead. There's no good rock out there anymore." need to dig deep and find groups like Eclipse and SUPPORT them!!! Buy their albums. Buy their tickets. Buy their gear and spread the word.

    a.... ....

    The people who said that are idiots.
    Across Europe, rock is very much alive: from Iron Maiden, to Beast in Black; Eclipse's Erik Martensson even created Nordic Union, and W.E.T., rock is dead for those mainstream-zombies who would consume any music that's been forced to them as "mainstream".

    a.... ....

    Make Rock N' Roll Great Again! \m/

    a.... ....

    Its funny Im reading your remark 2 years later.Yes this band is great.I found out about them on Pandora. I was on my 4 by faith station another great band.

    a.... ....

    Fuck Gene Simmons. Rock will never die!

    a.... ....

    Discovered them today. Totally inspired!

  49. B.... D....

    T.... K....

    w????????????tf

    T.... K....

    Tastes of human the most sensitive natures and emotions for sound generally are so universal, so personal,so different, so untouched from all till now in history ever...except for one and only Ingeneer...only and our mighty Lord.
    God was creator, not any mortal ant or piece of dust, ashes, of us... Remember? Whole new oceans of some unknown universes...so unique like fingerprints for every single man or woman...and polemic abt some or someone`s tastes, gently word for name I`ll use ow, are too infantile...Or listen and enjoy...or don`t and be Tesla someone else...Please and no offence, bcs I was totally honest just like you are...Silence is the best friend of grown human bean...Sense of the own...like in song-masterpiece of the modern and lighty music in last 100 years...Giants Depeche Mode in their old classic, fanatic fans saying, hymn of them...ENJOY THE SILENCE...and world is (mine)yours...Live and let other to live...so simply and spiritual for basic everyday soul-goodness, harmonies of all of us...without any personal voices or deep calling only known in personal...NO VOICE and FREE FIRE, NO SURRENDERS !!! ;) LOL

    God bless you, stay good and happy...Cheers !!!

  67. b.... ....

  74. D.... A....

  75. j.... b....

    Kinda reminds me of new Queensryche

  76. N.... ....

    โยกหัวแปป

  77. n.... ....

    Scandinavia are the best at melodic hard rock

  78. S.... M....

    STARTS OUT JAKE E LEE , ENDS LIKE DREAM THEATER ( ILL PAY FOR THIS LOL)

  79. m.... r....

    Drummer reminds me a bit of Zoltan Chaney. Very charismatic. I saw Zoltan play drums on Vince Neil's tour, he was INSANE.

    m.... r....

    @metalhead relic Never knew that. Thank you for that information. Now I need to research a bit more.

  80. J.... R....

     falta de originalidade. músicos bons mas musica fraca.

  81. L.... M....

    i love this band !

  82. D.... S....

    this drummer is very crazy \m/

  83. R.... G....

    Greatest band I've never heard of. You guys are fantastico!!! Im spreading your group name and sound to everyone!!!

  84. f.... ....

    finally a sign the bad old days of the 90s and 00s are coming to an end

  85. e.... ....

    Guitar work sounds like the best Jake E. Lee from the 'Bark at the Moon' era. Cool song.

    e.... ....

    :) Totally. Nice to hear some else who is a Jake E. Lee fan. Bark at the Moon was wonderful and so was Badlands. Thank you....you made my day, my friend.

    e.... ....

    Jake E Lee is awesome. Most underrated guitarist ever.

    e.... ....

    Well , Jake E Lee is the most underrated player ever. Not knocking Zac or Randy. Just hope he's healthy now.

    e.... ....

    I agree..totally jake e Lee...awesome

  86. a.... r....

    princess of the dawn-Accept

  87. �.... �....

    в phenomena  он пел?

  88. F.... T....

    Very Journey/Night Ranger sounding with a bit more good drum sound

    F.... T....

    not even close to those bands and btw, Journey and Night Ranger are totally different,  but all of them are damn good, including these guys. I hope they keep it up. Cheers!  

  89. C.... R....

    where are the shots of the bassist? lol. i saw him one time.  great song though wow...

  90. D.... S....

    The new kramers! hehehehe

  91. M.... C....

    Strait Killer !!!! 
    Love it ...

  92. R.... m....

    This is so cool, my kinda stuff.

  93. M.... K....

    so wake me up,,, \\~//

  94. R.... E....

    Rock on!!!! I'm diggin' this:)

  95. H.... M....

    Great song - shades of Whitesnake's - Wings of the Storm' from Slip of the Tongue all over the place - but great song nonetheless.

  96. H.... M....

    Holy shit man - What a fucking intro? How the hell did I not know of them?

    H.... M....

    I'm loving that Berklee guitar kid or at least his influences and the Tommy Lee influenced drummer always fun. I'd love to hear them get heavier and write some killer heavy but hard rockin' tunes with matching vocals. 

  97. T.... M....

    strength and commitment...yes...very strong..
