My most favorite Paul Rogers tune......

 

In the beginning, I believed every word that you said,

Now that you're gone my world is in shreds.

Oh, you loved me and left me,

You took all the things that I needed so bad,

I'm standing here wondering where is the love that I had?

Oh, give me silver, blue and gold,

The colour of the sky I'm told,

My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue.

 

 

In the beginning, yeah,

There was something of love that was mine,

Now that it's gone, whoa, I'm cryin'.

 

 

Oh, the time that it takes for a love

To grow cold is a wonder to me,

I'm walkin' around with my head

Hangin' down, tell me where is she?

 

 

Give me silver, blue and gold,

The colour of the sky I'm told,

My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue.

 

 

Don't forsake me 'cause I love you.

Don't forsake me 'cause I love you.

Give me silver, blue and gold,

The colour of the sky I'm told.

My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue.

Give me silver, blue and gold,

The colour of the sky I'm told.

My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue.

Now, give me silver, blue and gold,

The colour of the sky I'm told.

My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue, yeah.

 

 

Oh, don't forsake me 'cause I love you.

Don't forsake me 'cause I love you, yeah.

Had another post on this when I scored a couple tickets to Bad Company's [likely] last tour together in Tulsa with 3 of the 4 original members.

 

As I commented then, Paul just has the perfect rock voice, classic rock anyway. Perfect mixture of pitch clarity and raunch.

 

Sadly, I had tickets to The Firm when they were here and got sick and gave them to a friend. Of course, he said it was awesome and even liked Page's playing in The Firm better than when he saw Zeppelin. Perhaps just less wasted by then . . .??

 

And as far as the whole Queen thing, trying to replace Freddie was just a dumb idea period. Some lead singers aren't replaceable. Wasn't Paul's fault . . .

 

Kinda like if they ever tried to replace Geddy Lee in Rush.

I actually dislike the fact that when Paul Rogers joined Queen they started playing Bad Company songs.

Imho Paul Rogers ruined it and I don't like him [thumbdn]

Damn Yankees played Night Ranger tunes,Styx tunes and Nugent tunes,none of those bands were performing at the time,was like icing on the cake imo,,,i agree ya cant replace Freddy but i personally thought Paul did an awesome job. And +1 to Silver Blue and Gold [thumbup] awesome song !!
