| Scandal feat. Patty Smyth - The Warrior (HQ AV) |
 |
From 1984's The Warrior's self-tittle
smash-hit "The Warrior" by Scandal feat.
Patty Smyth.
Review Band.- Scandal was a rock band from
the 1980s fronted by Patty Smyth. Formed in
1982, the band's two biggest hits were
"Goodbye to You" (1982 - #65 U.S.) and "The
Warrior" (1984 - #7 U.S.)
Guitarist Zack Smith formed the mainstream
pop/rock band Scandal after playing in
various groups, including ones that featured
Dee Murray and Davey Johnson of the Elton
John band. Scandal's lineup was secured in
1982, with the addition of vocalist Patty
Smyth; the rest of the band included bassist
Ivan Elias, guitarist Keith Mack, keyboardist
Benji King, and drummer Frankie La Rocka.
After opening for acts like the Kinks and
Hall & Oates, the band released their debut
single, "Goodbye to You," in 1982; their
self-titled debut album followed soon
afterward. "The Warrior" was released two
years later. The title track was a Top Ten
hit and the album went platinum. However,
Smyth left for a solo career the following
year, causing the band to break up.
Review Patty Smyth.- Patty Smyth (born June
26, 1957 in New York City, New York, USA)
first enjoyed mainstream success in 1982 as
vocalist and lead singer of the band Scandal.
That band's self-titled debut release became
Columbia Records' biggest selling EP ever,
and was followed by a further hit in 1984,
"The Warrior" reached number seven on US Pop
charts.
In the mid-'80s, Smyth became friends with
Valerie Bertinelli and her then-husband,
Eddie Van Halen. When David Lee Roth left the
band Van Halen, Eddie Van Halen invited Smyth
to replace Roth as the band's lead singer.
Smyth declined the offer.
Smyth dated punk musician Richard Hell for
two years; their daughter, Ruby, was born in
1985. In April 1997, Smyth married John
McEnroe; the couple have two daughters, Anna
and Ava.
Following two solo albums in 1987 and 1992,
she secured a further hit record via a duet
with Don Henley of The Eagles; "Sometimes
Love Just Ain't Enough" peaked at number 2 in
the US charts and went gold. Its parent
album, Patty Smyth, also went gold and
featured an additional Top-40 hit with "No
Mistakes", as well as "I Should Be Laughing",
a minor hit. She had previously recorded with
Henley as a backing vocalist on several songs
on his albums Building The Perfect Beast and
The End of the Innocence.
She subsequently co-wrote the 1994 song "Look
What Love Has Done", nominated for a Grammy
and an Academy Award after its inclusion on
the soundtrack to Junior. Further soundtrack
commissions resulted in her penning the theme
tune, "Wish I Were You", to the 1998 hit
movie Armageddon.
As a result of her renewed popularity,
Columbia issued a retrospective album,
Greatest Hits -- Featuring Scandal. Two new
songs were included, including "Carnival
Lights". The song, co-written with Bob Thiele
Jr., concerned her mother's, Betty Smyth,
years as a trapeze artist. Smyth set out to
promote the album on an acoustic tour,
employing ex-Bullet Lavolta guitarist Duke
Roth as her sideman.
Note: Patty Smyth is sometimes confused with
Patti Smith, the early punk musician.

Long ago, for many years
White men came in the name of GOD
They took their land, they took their lives
A new age has just begun
They lost their GODS, they lost their smile
they cried for help for the last time.
Liberty was turning into chains
But all the white men said
That's the cross of changes
In the name of GOD - The fight for gold
These were the changes.
Tell me - is it right - In the name of GOD
These kind of changes ?
They tried to fight for liberty
Without a chance in hell, they gave up.
White men won in the name of GOD
With the cross as alibi
There's no GOD who ever tried
To change the world in this way.
For the ones who abuse His name
There'll be no chance to escape
On judgement day
In the name of GOD - The fight for gold
These were the changes.
Tell me - Is it right - In the name of GOD
These kind of changes ?
Tell me why, tell me why, tell why
The white men said:
That's the cross of changes ?
Tell me why, tell me why, tell why,
In the name of GOD
These kind of changes.
