Black Sabbath é uma banda de heavy metal britânica formada no ano de 1968 em Birmingham pelo guitarrista e principal compositor Tony Iommi, o baixista e principal letrista Geezer Butler, o vocalista Ozzy Osbourne e o baterista Bill Ward. Desde o início, a banda passou por diversas mudanças na formação, com o guitarrista Iommi sendo o único presente em todas elas. Originalmente era uma banda de blues rock, que logo adotou o nome Black Sabbath e começou a incorporar ocultismo e histórias de terror em suas letras, além de usar guitarras com baixa afinação. Apesar desses dois temas serem comuns, eles também compunham canções que tratavam de instabilidade social, corrupção política, os perigos do abuso de drogas e profecias apocalípticas resultantes de guerras.
A formação original teve seu fim em 1979 com a demissão de Osbourne, devido a seu vício em álcool e uso de outras drogas. Ele foi substituído por Ronnie James Dio, antigo vocalista do Rainbow. Após gravarem dois álbuns com Dio, o Black Sabbath enfrentou inúmeras mudanças de integrantes durante as décadas de 80 e 90, que incluíram os vocalistas Ian Gillan, Glenn Hughes, Ray Gillen e Tony Martin, bem como vários bateristas e baixistas. Em 1992, Iommi e Butler juntaram-se a Dio e o baterista Vinny Appice para a gravação do disco Dehumanizer. A formação original reuniu-se em 1997, quando gravaram o disco ao vivo Reunion. O último álbum de estúdio do Black Sabbath, intitulado 13, foi lançado em junho 2013 e contou com Iommi, Butler e Osbourne.
O Black Sabbath é usualmente citado como um dos pioneiros do heavy metal. O grupo ajudou a definir o gênero com lançamentos como Black Sabbath (1970), Paranoid (1970) e Master of Reality (1971), tendo vendido mais de 70 milhões de cópias durante sua carreira. Eles foram definidos pela MTV como "a maior banda de heavy metal de todos os tempos", e foram classificados em 2º na lista dos "100 maiores artistas de hard rock" do canal VH1. A revista Rolling Stone colocou-os na posição 85 de sua lista dos "100 maiores artistas de todos os tempos". A banda foi induzida ao UK Music Hall of Fame em 2005, ao Rock and Roll Hall of Fame em 2006 e já venceram duas vezes o Grammy Awards na categoria Melhor Performance de Metal.




Oh no, here it comes again
can't remember when we came so close to love before
Hold on, good things never last
nothing's in the past, it always seems to come again
again and again and again

Cry out to legions of the brave
time again to save us from the jackals of the street
Ride out, protectors of the realm
captain's at the helm, sail across the sea of lights

Circles and rings, dragons and kings
weaving a charm and a spell
Blessed by the night, holy and bright
called by the toll of the bell
Bloodied angels fast descending
moving on a never-bending light
phantom figures free forever
out of shadows, shining ever-bright
Neon Knights!
Neon Knights! all right!
Cry out to legions of the brave
time again to save us from the jackals of the street
Ride out, protectors of the realm
captain's at the helm, sail across the sea of lights
again and again, again and again and again

Neon Knights!
Neon Knights!
all right!

I feel unhappy I feel so sad
I lost the best friend
That I ever had
She was my woman
I loved her so
But it's too late now
I've let her go

I'm going through changes
I'm going through changes

We shared the eve's
We shared each day
In love together We found a way
But soon the world
Had its evil way
My heart was blinded
Love went astray

I'm going through changes
I'm going through changes

It took so long To realize
That I can still hear Her last goodbyes
Now all my days Are filled with tears
Wish I could go back And change these years

I'm going through changes

I'm going through changes
WALK AWAY RENEE
THE LEFT BANKE
SONGWRITER: Michael Brown, Bob Calilli & Tony Sansone

ALBUM: THE BODYGUARD: ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK ALBUM
LABEL: ARISTA RECORDS
GENRE: R & B
YEAR: 1992

"Walk Away Renée" is a song written by Michael Brown, Bob Calilli, and Tony Sansone for the band the Left Banke, released as a single in July 1966. Steve Martin Caro is featured on lead vocals. After its initial release, it spent 13 weeks on the U.S. charts, with a top spot of number 5.
The song features an oboe solo played during the instrumental bridge of the middle portion of the song. Brown got the idea from the flute solo from the Mamas & the Papas song "California Dreamin'" which had been recorded in November 1965 but wasn't a hit and in heavy rotation until early 1966. The arrangement also includes a lush string orchestration, a jangling harpsichord part, and a descending chromatic bass melody. Its production was credited to World United Productions, Inc., but the session was produced by Brown's father, jazz and classical violinist Harry Lookofsky, who also led the string players.
Rolling Stone placed "Walk Away Renée" at number 220 in the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song returned to nationwide charts with cover versions by The Four Tops (1967) and Rick Price (1993).




And when I see the sign that points "One Way "
The one we used to pass by every day

Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame

From deep inside the fear that I forced aside
From deep inside the pain that I chose to hide

Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries

Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries

Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall
Still find a way to haunt me, though they're so small

Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same

You're not to blame
EVEN IF MY HEART WOULD BREAK

I've been around this world
I've been a lot of places
Seen a million faces
In a thousand towns
But when I looked into your eyes
I knew I found Heaven
And I've been wantin' to tell you
I never wanna let you go

It may be winter and heat on
But what I'm feeling is summer in my heart

Is it too familiar to say "I love you"
Would you be suspicious if I asked your name
Tell me, what would it take
to really convince you
that I'm gonna love you
even if my heart would break

I see a better day
I can feel it coming
I can hear it calling
in the winter night
Could you turn this man
into a true believer
when you left your traces
on that moonlit night

It may be winter and heat on
But when I'm with you, with you
It's summer in my heart

Is it too familiar to say "I love you"
Would you be suspicious if I asked your name
Tell me, what would it take
to really convince you
that I'm gonna love you
even if my heart would break

It may be winter and heat on
But when I'm with you, with you
It's always summer in my heart

So let the mountains tumble
Tumble to the sea
Let the rivers overflow
It won't bother me
Let the stars go out tonight
Cuz I can see them in your eyes
And I wanna love you
even if my heart would break
(Even if my heart would break)

Is it too familiar to say "I love you"
Would you be suspicious if I asked your name
Tell me, what would it take
to really convince you
that I'm gonna love you
even if my heart would break

Even if my heart would break
I'm gonna love you
Even if my heart would break
I'm gonna love you
Let the stars go out tonight
Cuz I can see them in your eyes
And I'm gonna love you
even if my heart would break

(Even if my heart would break)
(Even if my heart would break)
(Even if my heart would break)
Yeah, yeah
(Even if my heart would break)
I'm gonna love you
Even if my heaaarrrt would break
(Even if my heart would break)

(Even if my heart would break)
