September 03 Aces High - Iron MaidenA quattro giorni dal settantesimo anniversario dello scoppio della Seconda Guerra Mondiale, ho scelto di commemorare l'evento con questa stupenda canzone degli Iron Maiden, che ricorda la Battaglia d'Inghilterra e lo strenuo combattimento della R.A.F. contro la Luftwaffe. Dal discorso di Winston Churchill del 4 giugno 1940: « We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas
and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender » There goes the siren that warns of the air raid Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak Out for the scramble weve got to get airborne Got to get up for the coming attack. Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines Remove all the wheelblocks theres no time to waste Gathering speed as we head down the runway Gotta get airborne before its too late. Running, scrambling, flying Rolling, turning, diving, going in again Running, scrambling, flying Rolling, turning, diving Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die (want you) Run, live to fly, fly to live. Aces high. Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers Let off a sharp burst and then turn away Roll over, spin round and come in behind them Move to their blindsides and firing again. Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us Ten me-109s out of the sun Ascending and turning our spitfires to face them Heading straight for them I press down my guns Running, scrambling, flying Rolling, turning, diving, going in again Running, scrambling, flying Rolling, turning, diving Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die (want you) Run, live to fly, fly to live. Aces high. Tratta dall'album "Powerslave", 1984
