UFO - Venus Lyrics

2019 Still stands Up!! Bam

It's too killer

its way too good

"Paul Raymond"(R.í.P)🎸🎹😎👊

What a gem

Great song, i lovet,,,,,,,,,,

Yngwie Malmsteen and Eddie Van Halen are the technical guitarists, Michael Schenker is the emotional one :-)

2019 🤘🤘🤘 👍👍👍

hear it live and your mind is blowing away.....

UFO's Walk on Water album is a masterpiece carved in solid Hard Rock and Metal
🤘

Man, Schenker was meant to be in UFO. And where he should have stayed.

Is this song a subtle warning about cocaine?

A great song, with fantastic keyboards and rhythm guitar by Paul Raymond, who sadly passed away the 13th of April 2019 and will be missed immensely.
R.I.P. Paul Raymond

One of the best UFO albums, like Lights Out, to me...
Rip Paul Raymond

Simply wonderful - timeless classic

2019 Still Here......Classic

This song should be blasting into the galaxy and intergalactic space to fill the universe. So universal and well composed and played and sung with passion

Ufo best line up 👉 Phil Mogg / Michael Schenker / Andy Parker / Pete Way And Paul Raymond🎸😎👊

No Doutb...The Best LINE Up👉 Phil Mogg / Andy Parker / Paul Raymond / Pete Way And Michael Schenker 😎👊

Well to me this song really got me moved... ur know what that means..peace n no sweat

Killer album and my 2nd fave by UFO since Obsession is #1

Best line up UFO Michael Schenker a monster 🤘.

Killer song by the best band ever.

Simply special and spectacular song "venus" greatest UFO : Object undificated

One of the best songs from Schenker/Mogg ever.

Hi love this song

Never understood the two albums that followed after this great classic album.

line up...Mogg, Schenker, Parker, Raymond André Way Big Bang👏👏👏👏

My favourite track off an unbelievably strong album! After hearing this guitar outro for the first time I played it over and over again, cranked up to the point just before my eardrums started to bleed!!! Michael Schenker's playing on this album is truly legendary, and it is one of those times in Rock music history when it all just 'came together' to create something EPIC.

Просто обалденная вещь!!!!!!

just can't quit it, Michael, great guitar work here, a pleasure for my ears, awesome licks, catchy riff and the melodies are unbelievable...

ufo has some of the best riffs in hard rock. so uncommon in the genre

a kick ass cut~

One of Schenker's many stunning performances

Being a fan from day one and from Michael Schenker, this song and album I consider it as Obsession volume 2

most lead guitarists cant go on and on like Michael Schenker does without repeating something. this end solo is wailing but melodic f-ing incredible

Schenker is one fire at the end of this song. No one like him just amazing

Best reunion album of any band!

I cannot find this on Itunes :(

played this tape till the wheels spun off

Venus impresionante tema

People can say what they want but Schenker and Mogg made UFO. Their best work comes when these two come together although I thought Chapman gave them a different enjoyable sound, the Schenker days were by far the best. Seen them twice lately and although he is a good player his style does not warm to the UFO sound. Michael plays with so much emotion and heart that you can't teach. He is a Genius !!!!!!!!!!!

what do you think of those 2 lame albums that followed?

Covenant and Sharks are very good albums also, not great like Lights Out, Force It, No Heavy Petting, Phenomenon, Obsession or Walk On Water , but still very good.

so damn good ......8 persons have no plan about good music !!!

This is why rock willl never die.

~UFO~ We were able to see this tour when you played at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano . Getting to meet you ALL was great as well after the show .... did seem odd that everyone in the band stayed inside to sign autographs except Michael Schenker who we got to meet at his trailer .
Long Live Rock and Roll ------------

PURE CLASS

the most unheralded album (and one of its very best) in UFO'S catalouge. Why they felt the need to put remakes of doctor-doctor and lights out is beyond me as this is a super strong album with ZERO filler trax and rocks hard from beginning to end. And michael schenker is on frickin' fire, as always byt you can tell he was really into doing this recording and his chops were ready to go. If you dont have WALK ON WATER, buy it now!! You will spin it a half dozen times in a row before you stop playing it.

"Why they felt the need to put remakes of doctor-doctor (...) is beyond me (...)". I read an interview on a Brazilian heavy metal magazine in the 90's. They explained that the cover that Iron Maiden (with Blaze Bayley) recorded in '94 was so fresh and heavy that it made them want to re-record it in that fashion. And Iron Maiden's version truly awesome :-)

Killer album start to finish

2 years before, in 1993, he released the first Thank You album, I just wonder which came first, I guess using the acoustic for chord progressions on that album helped him to comeout with the amazing melodies on this album... 2004 "You Are Here" album is pretty good melodically too, with Vinnie Moore

i agree. vinny is very good.

WALK ON WATER was way too short IMHO. Never needed the remakes and those solo project tracks.

rock at its finest!

simplemente un discazo de estos 5 genios no se puede pedir mas ......

The best comeback song with that typical UFO feeling - dark, melancholic, a catchy riff and a good potion of melody...Michael plays really on the top, my dear Eddie Van Halen...greetings from Hardrock Holmes

wingerrattdokken - damn, love me some ufo but your handle is my top 3!!!!!!!!

I cant stray away from one description I heard that also is deadly accurate. "Its a masterpiece!"

Michael Schenker's solos in this song sound very Gilmour-esque...

I do with my guitar.
The chorus it's easy.

Michael Schenker's Temple of Rock is in full force with the album "Spirit On A Mission". There are videos for the songs "Vigilante Man" and "Live & Let Live". Meanwhile. UFO are out with their "A Conspiracy of Stars".

Have seen them at House of Blues 2 out of last four years. Luv Vinnie Moore but no comparison to the late 70's early eighties Schenker and then way under rated Paul Chapman. No replacing Michael. Ever with anyone!

Walk on Water 1998. Reunion album as such

This song was on Covenant album

This song is off the 95 release Walk On Water. The first album to feature the "Classic Line-up" of Schenker, Mogg, Way, Raymond and Parker since 1978's Obsession.

Just great guitars solos and an incredible song. I think one of the best UFO albums.

Must purchase this album. 

Phenomenal

When this album came out in 1993-95 (or there about), it was like they picked-up where "Obsession"  (1978)  left off......This album is great.

I know that there's no possible way that you can be saying that all that awesome Paul Chapman music between Obsession and Walk On Water didn't raise the hair on the back of your neck!  And especially the album that came out right before Walk On Water......................."HIGH STAKES AND DANGEROUS MEN!"  I hope your'e lucky enough and smart enough to find it. It's the Crowned Jewel of my UFO collection! It's an absolutely awesome disc with a guitar player by the name of Lawrence Archer! If you listen to this disc, and can actually spit the words out of your mouth that you don't like it, then I just can't bring myself to consider you a TRUE UFO fan!!!! YES!!!! I love schenker and all of the schenker stuff..........But he wasn't the band!!!!! UFO is Phill Mogg's band.......and the musicians that he feels comfortable with...........the musicians that "get off" on playing the music that he set out to play 40+ years ago!!!!!!!  DUHHHH!!!! It's about Phill Mogg's band, and the few musicians that are still with him today......................THE BAND KNOWN AS UFO!!!!!!!!!!!

No Mogg no UFO. No Schenker no UFO. No Place to Run and a few others are nice to listen to, but they don't compare with the Schenker stuff. Schenker and Mogg always will be UFO to me.

@3to5andglassy Absolutely.

+David Lake Laurence played awesome on "Back Door Man", now he plays at X-UFO/House of X

Not to deny that the schenker stuff is incredible and iconic because it is but man High Stakes is awesome AF she's the one, dont want to lose you, burnin fire, one of those nights to single out a few tracks and i like aint misbehavin and misdemeanor about as much. I know its crazy to some but those are my 3 favorites and ive heard em all but conspiracy of stars has some of their best songs since then the killing kind is wow.

There are times during the first two minutes that sound like an imminent breakout..., a taste of things to come, and then....

Schenker manages to shame an entire generation of shredders in one song.

are you kidding me or anyone else.

Peter Schopf cant agree more! 🤘

Amen bro!

There was a period after walk on water during the unforgiven album days when michael was alternate picking like YJM, seriously. Listen to the solos in Unforgiven they're pretty damn awesome. So it's not like he can't classically shred, he just chooses not to . The point here is that when he's with UFO he writes incredibly catchy songs and if the base is good then his solos are just that much better over that base.

Excelente hard...Linha do Deff Lepard, Thin lizzy, Triunph, entre outros.
Virtuosismo e criação típica dos anos 70.

The whole album kills from start to finish.

love this song thanks for the post

Here I am listening to this again. Nobody beats Michael.

PURE PERFECTION!

Cracking album. Back to riffage

Fantastic song, great lyrics and the leads are absolutely phenomenal .

UFO......THE "classic lineup".......Mogg, Way, Schenker, Parker and Raymond.....possibly the greatest rock bad to ever exist.

Love it! I agree! Amazing Brits!

Michael Schenker is from Germany. Although the band is from Britain.

He did live in England quite a lot, since joining UFO.... So, I guess its OK to call him Brit ...

Dmitriy Ryabin Schenker is from GERMANY, can you read?

but I love Danny Peyronel, too :-)

Wow , what an incredible song with such an awesome and tightly woven intensity of all these awesome and vocal instruments, by far one of the most brilliant guitar runs ever played and recorded , ... just WoW I hope all the upcoming rockers get a chance to hear and take this band to heart as i was lucky enough to do in my day, Rock on sisters and brothers.....

I played that tape till wheels spun off::!

Dude,ive been looking for this album for long, a friend of mine made me a tape without the title;I played guitar for years  but this song realy inspired me to get serious at a low point,,, thanks man

This song leaves me at a loss for words. Nearly perfect

This song , if it had gotten any airplay, would've been the best anthem ever. yes and this album is so amazing. When Moog isn't fighting with Schenker magic happens but these two are destined to be at each other's throats and that tension makes for great music. *Sigh*. Schenkers playing is like having a beautiful woman that can go skanky when you need her to be that way and be an angel when you want her that way too. Oh and ofcourse she's unpredicable making you nutz and happy at the same time. At least that's how I feel when I hear him playing.

...very articulate, and deadly accurate...great post, Z!...

yeah man!

Well said!

UFO ON !!!!

Stopped by a bullet is a unbelievable, fucken song. one of the best solos he came up with. Listen closely and youll understand. axeflyer, UFO, MSG 4 EVER. axeflyer MD.

If you haven't already.. google "Michael Schenker's Temple of Rock" and look into what he does these days. Both tours and albums.. Don't think you'll regret it!

SAW THIS WHEN THEY CAME BACK---WALK ON WATER----KILLER ALBUM--

Great Song by a great band.

One of my all time favs.

as a maiden fan, I FUCKING LOVE THIS

Couldn't hold back, thanks for uploading this and any UFO tunes. The vocals and lyrics are are uplifting, then you add Schenker and his flying V licks, then it's oh so close to ecstasy and I not refering to sex, just listening pleasure.

A brilliant song, the ideal second track on "Side 1".

I reckon the Venus in the lyric is cocaine rather than a woman.

Love Schenker, going to see him again at M15, UFO is playing 2 weeks later, I'm stoked.

ufo fkn rocks

Beautifully put....take a bow, Spazzoboxer.

I love them sens I was a teenage. 40 years a go...oh shit, I am old. Sweden

I believe this band is every bit as good as Black Sabbath, jUdas Priest or any other 70s metal artist.

Holy fuck this is good.....

totally agree buddy fukin awesome

This whole album was a great surprise. These guys really stepped up to the plate on this one .U.F.O. is never the same without Schenker..

Actually, it's Amaj, not Am, the first time it's Em-G-D-A (D-A), the 2nd time it's Em-G-D-A (A-G)

Em - G - D - Am is the basic progression, w/ some embellishment at the end of each rep

If possible can anyone give me the guitar chords to the riff? I can't make out what they are and I need to learn this amazing piece.

america radio touched this piece,just to fell to let it go and never to be heard again.what a fing crime...

increibleeee!

Love it....

amazing guitar sound

this is one of them songs that carry you away ,roll your eyes and feel the brilliance of ufo on and on
