I don't know if it is the greatest but one of them, I am sure. Underrated as well even by Bruce. I think he thinks we do not care about this song. 😊 "Kill Devil Hill" is way better than Rain On The Graves, for instance.
this might be in reference to the place of the wright brothers first powered flight (kill devil hill, kitty hawk north carolina). this came out not too long after bruce got his pilot license.
It totally is, it is about their daring ordeal of being flight pioneers. It's really an incredible lyrical representation of the feat: Blood brothers of angels, now hear us (The Wright brothers, of angels, since they are bound to fly) We earthbound your offspring, don't fear us (earthbound as in, we are not originally flying animals) God willing will rise up be near you (rising to the angels, who fly) So open your arms now and take us (us I suppose, the rest of humans, who after their discoveries will be able to fly as the angels) ... And so on, with so many other beautiful takes...It's truly a metal gem
What an amazing song and such a poetical way of describing the first manned flight - a masterpiece of song writing showing Bruce's genius as a song-writer.
Couldn't have said it better..... The whole song is fire but that outro gives goosebumps and vivid picture of an ocean sunset with blowing sand and crashing waves.... Love this song
A true masterpiece & my password for everything.
Please play this song live! The greatest song of all time IMO.
Dude, that would be amazing!
