Rainbow - Spotlight Kid Lyrics
You don't know what's happening, you want to go home
But there's nowhere to hide
You walk out on stage, your first time alone
The crowd's going wild
And you feel so alive
They love you but you're in love with the spotlight
You're the spotlight kid
Jokers and women they hang 'round your door
They're all part of the scene
Just like a junkie you've got to have more
It's a pleasure machine
And you fly every night
But the dressing room mirror don't lie
They love you but you're in love with the spotlight
Your audience died, faded away
Leaving you on the stage
It's been so many years since that first matinee
It seems like an age
Encore one more time
For the ghosts of the past in your mind
They love you but you're in love with the spotlight
You're the spotlight kid
You're living in a dream
You're the spotlight kid
You're in love with the spotlight

Rainbow Spotlight Kid Comments
この頃のミュージックは創造力が違うんだよね!何か楽しませてくれる!
With the mighty Joe Lynn Turner on vocals, a good time is always guaranteed!
This and Difficult to cure are by far the best songs on the album.
El duelo Blackmore/Airey sencillamente magistral. El tema, pura energía y vitalidad del mejor rock.
That's a great album cover. It could pass for killing joke.
The doctors look like aliens that abducted someone and are about to do some work on someone
This sounds like Highway Star. Underrated album.
I don't know why this album is slagged on Allmusic. It's deserving of four stars.
@Roc Johnson I don't go to them for reviews (or anywhere else these days). It's probably because it's commercial sounding.
Мощный драйв , отличная техника , красивые мелодии -- это Радуга Блэкмора !!! Вещь просто супер !!!
Any of you ever listened ... of fear of not being enough... this is the song.
Mr. Blackmore ❤️
Rainbow kicking ass all over the place spotlight kid
Слухаю всю жизнь!!!!
Я тоже

81年発表でコレ⁉️あまりにも古臭すぎるだろ。楽曲センスもテクニックも、70年代ロックから進歩ないね。
80'sはロックの黄金時代で、ヴァン・ヘイレンやイングヴェイ等の時代の先駆者が次々に台頭した時代だからな。
そういうヴァン・ヘイレンもイングヴェイも今だに同じ事やってるがな。
@TheTenfoureight さん
イングヴェイはマンネリだからなぁ‥‥ヴァン・ヘイレンもご隠居状態だし。だけど何処のグループだって時代に合わせて、作風を変えてるもんだぜ。デヴィッド・ボウイだってそう。70sと80sでは別物。
いくら何でも70年代ロックに固執するRainbowは、時代遅れすぎる。
Как возможно играть на гитаре со скоростью балалайки?

Malmsteen totally ripped this song off for Jet To Jet. I'm surprised no law suits were filed as it's a total steal. That's coming from the man who said I was never influenced by his playing?? ! Yeah sure man, whatever.
Malmsteen talks out of his arse.First time I saw there he was-shoulder length black hair,black outfit with white boots,scalloped white strat etc etc.I thought "WTF?"No wonder the Alcatrazz drummer burst out laughing when he saw him!Then later he releases the "Inspiration" album half of the songs on which are Purple/Rainbow. Kidding no-one fat boy!
@spinozacelt Yeah he ripped off everyone especially Uli Jon Roth who has much more soul all the way back to Hendrix whom he apes his every move. I think he likes to believe he's a master but nothing more than a plagiarist a fast one albeit!
@Veganomics Malmsteen CAN play but to deny the Blackmore influence is idiotic.Also,ur right stole so much from Uli John.The guy is such a bore and really a terrible musician.his latest "opus" Blue Lightning is fucking awful.One trick pony-not fit to be mentioned in the same breath as masters like Ritchie and Uli John.
@spinozacelt I agree he is an unbelievable guitarist, lightning fast. I have 4 of his albums but rarely listen to them. I cant stand it for more than a few tracks they all start sounding alike. Too much preponderance of scales with little vibrato and feel. It's cold and mechanical. I remember when he was comatosed after a crash in 1988. When he recovered everyone wondered if he would slow down and play with more soul but he came back twice as fast and with even less soul! I'm not sure he even has one, he's got a massive ego instead and yes he is a OTP. Personally I prefer Jimi, Richie, Page, Gilmour, Schenker, Uli Jon Roth and people of that ilk. They may not be as fast but they have so much class and feeling. Richie says it all with one note he can't do with a 100!!

Riff at 2.30 sounds like a phrase from classical music`s piece...that`s why is Blackmore the best one after Hendrix
I'd put him with page after Hendrix
In my opinion Blackmore better, than Hendrix😃
I used to listen to Hendrix before,but now I like Blackmore more than Jimi....i think that Ritchie`s riffs are more poetic and phrasing has more meaning.Both of them are revolutionary artists(Hendrix`s technique and Blackmore and heavy metal),very influental.
Blackmore the Best
このアルバムを買ったのはたぶん中学校3年の冬休みだったような気がした、またボーカルが変わったよと、言われたが、今回もいいねーと思っていたよ、リッチさえいれば
Rata Blanca eres tu ???}
estupendo solo de don airey, en ninguna version en vivo, ni siquiera en covers hicieron este solo de studio, una maravilla
Ywing Malmsteen is an idiot... he said "I do not owe anything to Ritchie Blackmore" but his all career sounds like this solo... Mr Blackmore the best....
In the beginning he was influenced but then came into his own
Fuck Yngwieeeee
You are idiot
Yngwie is best!
Malmsteen have never denied Blackmore influence in his playing and career, he always speaks in high end regard of Rirchie, but truth is yngwie can kick blackmore's ass any day of the year, any hour, anytime. Ritchie is so overrated, I mean he is good, but not that good.
Listen some Bluesounds once and a while...
Who the f is spotlight kid?
Sonic the hedgehog
The Spotlight Kid.. That was me when I was 23..the good ol days

Пиздец!
リッチー最高!

やっぱくそかっこいい
Tenes toda la razón!!!
素晴らしい曲を有り難うございます(*^▽^*)🎵
Love the guitar solo but the synth almost ruins it.
Blackmore is idol malmsteen
Даааааа!!!!!Во силища.
What's the awesome synth instrument that starts at 2:46 ?
Музыка моей юности!
Я тоже!
Yngvie definitely did rip off the the main rhythm on jet to jet from here, I am glad some one pointed it out to me, I would have had no idea if I hadn't seen the post on jet to jet, which is still a good tune, but is pretty much plagiarism when it comes to this song .
Well you obviously don't know anything about Yngwie than! Only guitarist on which Yngwie would pay a homage is Blackmore,nothing more nothing less just a nod to his Master ;)
@Vlado Petrovski I new yngwie's idol is blackmore, this is beyond that though
BOBBY GODINELLI

THANK YOU RITCHIE AND THANK YOU JOE LYNN TURNER!

Who is this
Rainbow
Ritchie Blackmore, guitars; Joe Lynn Turner, vocals; Don Airey, keyboards; Roger Glover, bass and Bobby Rondinelli, drums = Rainbow 1981.
old memories- i played this song in Sweden- now im in Finland
Лучшее соло Эйри!!
Случайно не знаете, есть ли эта вещица в исполнении Дио? Я нигде не могу найти ее в его исполнении. Может Дио не исполнял ее никогда? 🤔Мне это даже кажется странным.
@Алик Такати Dio пел 1975-80
@Юрий Коваленко А, вот оно что! Как жаль! Его бы чувственные,колоритные интонации и мощную энергетику в эту песню! Эх! Спасибо Вам за отклик.😊
Great solo and one of the greatest rock riffs
👍❤🇺🇸🇬🇧😉
Thank you mr. Blackmore
At 01:59, fasten your seatbelts, we have lift off! :D
