This makes me realize I haven't really listened to the album to the point where I really KNOW all the songs. Time for more spins!!!

If you have one of those iPhones, where when you set an alarm, you can pick a song, it should be a great one to wake up to. It starts out with a keyboard blaring away like a trumpet!  Then the short drum burst followed by a duet Russell &  Davie, with fast paced beats. It sounds like a boxing match the way it just punches away at you.
Then the lyrics kick in, and the nice melodic refrain from Bernie.  I didn't hear much guitar work until about three minutes in and I really heard some beautiful licks from Mick. Then at 4:25 some beautiful swirling guitar work kicks in  I am  thinking it's a guitar could be a keyboard, but really sounds great. Lyrically the song gets in your head and with such a catchy chorus.  "There's a golden light shining down on me on an empty road somewhere there's an angel guide, helping me survive."  

Another great song on the new CD and this song is a great example of how tight Russell and Davey play together. A beautiful song up-tempo with a scrumptious tasty rhythm section throughout. So far the cd is 7 for 7 in my book!  It exceeds even my all Heep is good Heep perspective!!

I love all the Bleep from Uriah Heep!
