| 1. Starfire
Whoa oh oh oh oh listen here
So many faces cold and worn stranded in this world
So little time there's no rewinding must be strong and carry on
As the light of the moon catches me catches me I live I live
As the stars shimmer bright for me for me I live I live
I am the foot |

Казалось бы только недавно я покупал данный альбом по лицензии CD-Maximum, а уже шестнадцать лет прошло. И возвращаясь в прошлое, помнится я думал, что подобного рода сольники у Йорна будут, сродни сольным работам Котипелто, выходить время от времени, но не станут основным занятием вокалиста.
Шутка ли, но история пошла вразрез с моим предсказанием, позволив мистеру Ланде петь в куче различных проектов, но основным оставив именно его сольное творчество. И, лично мое мнение, всему виной, безусловно, амбиции норвежца. Человек посчитал свои взгляды на музыку гораздо более весомыми, нежели его участие в коллективах с другими основными композиторами.
"Starfire" получился вполне себе удачным стартом сольной карьеры певца в первую очередь благодаря умеренности собственного эго. Ланде не стал бросаться с места в карьер, а потому песни собственного сочинения разбавил каверами на хиты таких легенд, как, например, Journey и Deep Purple. Он не постеснялся взять узнаваемые песни, типа "Burn", что по большому счету располагает к нам Йорна как "своего парня".
Также, в 2017-ом, "Starfire" может быть интересен тем, что голос Йорна звучит практически кристально чисто, и лишь редко проскакивает, ставшая сейчас визитной карточкой, хрипотца в голосе.
В целом, альбом выдерживает проверку времени, и спустя шестнадцать лет слушается вполне легко. Да, многие фишки норвежца, ставшие сейчас нормой, здесь только начали зарождаться, но материал на альбоме удивительным образом органично вписывается в историю сольного творчества Йорна Ланде. Хороший старт. |

Первый сольник Йорна Ланде наполовину состоит из кавер-версий, в числе которых песни Deep Purple, Foreigner, Journey и др. Собственные труды норвежского певца также выдержаны в хард-роковом ключе и смотрятся не то, чтобы здорово, но, как минимум, достойно. Безусловной удачей стала заглавная вещь, вполне подошедшая бы для Ark. |

Перед нами первый сольный альбом норвежского Ворона рок/метал сцены. Если вы любите мелодичный хард-рок с вкраплениями прогрессивных элементов и мощным харизматичным вокалом, вам обязательно надо послушать это творение Йорна и Ко.
За те 48 минут, что звучит альбом, вы звёздным огнём пронесетесь по Миру, лунной походкой пройдетесь по острию лезвия, погрустите о расставании с любимой, увидите Землю, объятую огнём, задумаетесь о бренности этого мира и о том, что есть человеческое счастье, заглянете в Бездну Зла, в очередной раз поскулите об ушедшей любви и, наконец, у Врат Слёз услышите отчаянный крик пророка о приближающемся Судном Дне. Я уверен, что эта замечательная музыка, великолепный вокал Йорна и сильные тексты песен не оставят вас равнодушными.
На альбоме присутствуют пять кавер-версий популярных хитов прошлого – "Edge of the Blade" (Journey), "Break It Up" (Foreigner), "The Day the Earth Caught Fire" (City Boy), "Burn" (Deep Purple) и "Just the Same" (Jefferson Starship). Йорн смог вдохнуть в них новую жизнь. В его исполнении они зазвучали еще ярче и насыщеннее (только "Burn" без гениальных инструментальных партий Лорда и Блэкмора звучит послабее оригинала).
В общем, блестящий сольный дебют, заслуживающий высокой оценки. А за шедевр "Starfire" (просто потрясающий драматизм) Йорну вообще можно прижизненный памятник поставить. |

I am the eyeglass of a blinded man
In the heat of desire I'm a starfire falling down from the sky
Whoa oh so many choices where will they lead us don't know where to go
Pray for the children for they are the future teach them how to play
As the light of the moon catches me catches me I live I live
As the stars shimmer bright for me for me I live I live
I am the footprint in the sand I am the wind that sweeps the land
I am the eyeglass of a blinded man
In the heat of desire I'm a starfire falling down from the sky
As the light of the moon catches me I live I live
As the stars shimmer bright for me I live I live
I am the footprint in the sand I am the wind that sweeps the land
I am the eyeglass of a blinded man
In the heat of desire I'm a starfire falling down from the sky
I am the sunshine and the rain I am the hurt I am the pain
I am the soldier without a name
So many voices voices voices so little time there's no rewinding
I am the sunshine and the rain I am the hurt I am the pain

Turning on me after all we've been through
You want trouble then that's just the way it will be
You're caught up in the power a blue magical maze
Now the circle is broken in a spellbinding rage
Better see if you're holding the wrong edge of the blade
Hey oh oh if it's sharp if it cuts enjoy yourself hey

3. Break It Up
Made myself a prisoner I locked myself away
Can't remember the last time I saw the light of day
Don't wanna face life feel I've been betrayed
I want you to tell me where our love went astray
So can't you wait one more minute
Why can't you wait one more day let's get it straight
'cause it's a big mistake so let's think about it aah aah aah

Never ever want to break it up oh no

You say you've thought about it but you sound so cold

You won't listen you say it's way too late
That something is missing and now you just can't wait

Mm so I ask myself what's wrong with me how could I be so blind
You know she tried to give me everything I still couldn't see
Now as I watch our love slip away

4. Forever Yours
So you say you don't love me anymore
Something died deep inside of you
And you say you still care but not the way it supposed to be
As if I was a stranger after all these years
It's so hard to understand
Now I'm only half a man and I can't take it no
Baby can't you see what your love has done to me
I'm gonna love you forever forever I'll be yours
Lady please never say never
For I can't let you go I won't let you go no no
We brought life to this world a boy and a girl
And they will remind us forever
Of the love that we had we had something special
Now baby can't you see what you've done to me
I'm gonna love you forever forever I'll be yours
Lady please never say never
For I can't let you go I won't let you go
If you find me somewhere in your heart
Maybe we can make a brand new start no
I'm gonna love you forever I'm gonna love forever
Forever I'll be yours please never say never
Please never say never for I can't let you go
Without your love without your love
Oh no can't believe it's true it's true oh no no
5. The Day The Earth Caught Fire
The day the earth caught fire
We stood outside the world was laughing
And in the city square they cast umbrellas to the sky
The sun above my head was burnin' greedy red
The horns began to blow three cheers for Jericho
The first evacuee I was headed for the sea I saw them
The roadside refugees the boys
With bloody knees who waved
Abandoned cars that lay too tired to drive away
A world in flames today was all the papers had to say
Run for your life the earth's caught fire
Run for your life the earth's caught fire run run run
Run for your life the earth's on fire
Run for your life the earth's on fire run run run
The streetcar prophet said
You thought that God was dead I warned you
The sinners and the saved
They fell down to their knees and prayed
Believers held their breath and stoned a witch to death
The leaders and the led said blow the bloody reds away
Run for your life the earth's caught fire
Run for your life the earth's caught fire run run run
Run for your life the earth's on fire
Run for your life the earth's on fire run run run
Run for your life the earth's caught fire
Run for your life the earth's caught fire run run run
Run for your life run for your life
Run for your life the earth's on fire run for your life
6. Gate Of Tears
Yeah yeah aah aah aah aah aah
On a mountain of madness madness at the top of the world
Looking down at the people leading their crazy lives
I saw the token token the seal has been broken
We've built the tower way too high
Dreams being shattered the rise and the fall
Hear the sound of judgement day judgement day
Prepare to meet your maker
When they ring that bell it's heaven or hell
We've been tossed we've been crossed
Since the beginning of time we've been lost
Looking for reason walking on broken glass oh oh
My eyes are bleeding the rise and the fall been waiting for so long
At the the gate of tears we cry is there a place for you and I
Gazing at the starlight hoping for a free flight
Oh oh aah aah aah aah aah
On the mountain where the light breaks breaks that's where you'll find me
Where the rain falls down on the stone surround
I am the preacher man preacher man the voice of the promised land
We've turned up the power way too high
My eyes are bleeding the rise and the fall it goes on and on and on
At the gate of tears we cry is there a place for you and I
Is there a place for you and I is there a place for you
Gazing at the starlight hoping for a free flight
Hoping for a free flight oh oh hoping for a free flight
Dreams being shattered the rise and the fall been waiting for so long
Since the day that we were born good and evil we've been torn
Is there a place for you and I is there a place for you
Gazing at the starlight hoping for a free flight
Hoping for a free flight hoping for a free flight
At the gate of tears we cry is there a place for you and I
Is there a place for you and I is there a place for you
Gazing at the starlight hoping for a free flight
Hoping for a free flight hoping for a free flight
I am the preacher man the voice of the promised land
Hear the sound of judgement day day
Prepare to meet your maker
7. Burn
Hey the sky is red I don't understand
Past midnight I still see the land
People are saying the woman is damned
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand
The city's a blaze the town's on fire
The woman's flames are reaching higher
We were fools we called her liar all I hear is burn
I didn't believe she was devil's sperm
She said curse you all you'll never learn
When I leave there's no return
The people laughed till she said burn
Warning came no one cared
Earth was shakin' we stood and stared
When it came no one was spared still I hear burn
You know we had no time we could not even try
You know we had no time
You know we had no time we could not even try
You know we had no time aw aw aw aw aw aw aaw
The sky is red I don't understand
Past midnight I still see the land
People are saying the woman is damned
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand
Warning came no one cared
Earth was shakin' we stood and stared
When it came no one was spared still I hear burn
Whoa oh oh oh whoa oh oh oh burn
8. End Come Easy
She could fly like a bird in the sky
With the wind beneath her wings
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ambition
She took off she burned out
Ooh ooh ooh the end comes easy
He could dive into the sun
And fade the moon away
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ambition
He took off he burned out
Ooh ooh ooh the end comes easy
The world unfolds day to day
We're moving too fast
And we can catch all the pain
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ambition
We're going down we're burning out
Ooh ooh the end comes easy oh oh oh
Oh the end is down ambition oh oh
Aah ah aah aah ah aah
9. Just The Same
Aah aah aah ah ah aah aah
Hey hey oh oh hey hey heh oh hey hey yeah
There's a light from afar like some distant star
It doesn't really matter where you are where you are
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
One man was happy one lived in sorrow
Overseer said they'll meet tomorrow ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
One man was wealthy one had to borrow
Overseer said they'll meet tomorrow ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
There's a light from afar like some distant star
It doesn't really matter where you are where you are
Moon's silver face dark shadows on the wall
Light playing games as evening falls ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
And when the sunshine can't warm your heart again
Soar with the starlight on the evening wind ooh ooh ooh
There's a light from afar like some distant star
It doesn't really matter where you are ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh oh
There is a way even though your heart is broken
Now by the close of one door another opens now
Leave your heat wide open now the door will open
One man was happy one lived in sorrow
Overseer said they'll meet tomorrow ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
One man was wealthy one had to borrow
Overseer said they'll meet tomorrow
It's just the same ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's just the same ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh it's just the same ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's just the same ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh it's just the same ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's just the same it's just the same
There's a light from afar like some distant star
It doesn't really matter matter where you are
10. Abyss Of Evil
You wake up in the morning and you shake your weary head
You look for the sunshine but rain falls down instead
Lost in the wilderness there is chaos everywhere
Win or lose pick and choose we are the children of despair
Roll the dice pay the price look for a reason
Wise man show me which way to go
Tell me what you know tell me what you know
Do you know the wonders of the world
Digging to the core digging to the core always wanting more yeah
No time for healing get down on your knees and pray
There was one shot in the dark a stranger in the park
And I was only one step away
Spinning the wheel chains of steel to the crossroads we sail on
Wise man show me which way to go
Stay away from the abyss of evil
Where the monsters and demons collide
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
On your journey to paradise ooh oh oh
Roll the dice pay the price look for a reason
Wise man show me which way to go
Keep away from the abyss of evil
Where the monsters and demons collide
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
On your journey to paradise
Stay away from the abyss of evil oh
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
On your journey to paradise oh oh look away
Stay away from the abyss of evil
