Iron Maiden Vídeos - Fear of the Dark

2003 foi o ano que o Iron Maiden despertou para boa parte da nossa galera, especificamente para o Kbça, Girino, André e eu. Tudo que conheciamos se restringia, naquele momento, a um cd do Fear of The Dark e o Rock in Rio. Em ambos os albúns, uma coisa sempre nos surpreendia: Fear of the Dark. Aquele coro inicial feito por 250 mil pessoas era de arrepiar. Me recordo, que naquele período, os recursos para download eram limitados, com a predominância dos programas p2p. Outro problema era que a Internet de banda larga ainda não fazia parte das vida da maior parte da classe média. Mesmo assim, o Kbça ainda teve a raça de fazer um download da música no citado festival de 90 MB com sua net discada. De lá pra cá, a proximidade da nossa galera com o Iron só aumentou.

Curiosidade: justamente hoje, a banda vai fazer um show no Rio de Janeiro.



I am a man who walks alone
And when I'm walking in a dark road
At night or strolling through the park

When the light begins to change
I sometimes feel a little strange
A little anxious when it's dark

Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a constant fear that something's
always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's
always there

Have you run your fingers down
the wall
And have you felt your neck skin crawl
When you're searching for the light?
Sometimes when you're scared
to take a look
At the corner of the room
You've sensed that something's
watching you

Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a constant fear that something's
always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's
always there

Have you ever been alone at night
Thought you heard footsteps behind
And turned around and no one's there?
And as you quicken up your pace
You'll find it hard to look again
Because you're sure that
someone's there

Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a constant fear that something's
always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's
always there

Watching horror films the night before
Debating witches and folklores
The unknown troubles on your mind
Maybe your mind is playing tricks
You sense, and suddenly eyes fix
On dancing shadows from behind

Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have constant fear that something's
always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's
always there

When I'm walking a dark road
I am a man who walks alone
