B.Y.H. Lyrics

In 1981, the metal struck like thunder
The harmonious noise all linked in one voice
A croon across the nation

My soul was ripped and torn, I couldn't resist the power
The music I heard, the thunderous words
My gate to liberation

It made us rock it made us lose our self control

Bang Your Head - Stand United

It was the spark, the flame, setting our hearts on fire
Creating our dreams, our lives and our means
We're howling with desire

We came to rock we came to lose our self control

Bang Your Head - Stand United

The years kept passing by
No wind of change could bring us down
Cause we are one my friend
We stand together 'til the end
This is our destiny
Our will, our life our honored crown
Our dream is ours to dream
Our beat's out beat forevermore
Now, Templars, bang your heads and unite

It made us rock it made us roll forever more

Bang Your Head - Stand United
Bang Your Head - Stand United

Bang Your Head!
Bang Your Head!
Bang Your Head!
Bang Your Head!

Genius Annotation

[Bang Your Head] tells the story of what I felt when I bought my first metal album in 1981. The album was Saxon’s Strong Arm of the Law. I’m describing the feeling that I felt inside when I heard that album. That was my big step into it. The funny thing is, I had dinner with Biff [Byford] a few weeks ago in London. And I said “you know what, it’s exactly 30-years ago I listened to Saxon’s Strong Arm of the Law” and I described that feeling on this album, and now I’m sitting having dinner with you! That was a great feeling.
