Default 41. Standing On The Outside

This is the START OUT OF HELL & ARRIVE TO HEAVEN topic.
Let's Go to Rock 'n' Roll!!!!!!

Standing On The Outside (9)

I think this is the best song on the album. A very good melody with deep emotions. The music and the lyrics is melting. You can feel the pain in every rhythm, in every beat!

But there is the hope too. He waits the love, the light again. He has to be careful cause running out of time. This vision Michael Whelan's able to depict very well...

My score: 9



Average: 8.63 (103.5/12)

I think that this song is together with the title song the best piece on the album. It's a very melodic ballad and Meat's voice sounds also very good.

8/10

Definatly one of the top two songs on the album.
This is a great song.The music and Meat's voice have a very haunting quality.I also think that the lyrics are very good.

I just love this song.It's not one people enthuse about much,but i love it .It might not be as powerful as some but the lyrics are simply beautiful. I love the line
"There's got to be a soul somewhere that shines for me.."

simply beautiful

9/10

This is an OK song. Pretty strong vocals but a weak arrangement.
7/10

My fave on the BBIS album.
I'm hooked on it. I could listen to this song forever...

This is a "lost souls" song.
... I'm so tired of bein' all alone... there's got to be a soul somewhere that shines for me...

Meat's vocals give me the goosebumps!

9/10
