    There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
    There comes the sound of the guns sending flak
    Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne
    Got to get up for the coming attack
    Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines
    Remove all the wheel blocks, there's no time to waste
    Gathering speed as we head down the runway
    Gotta get airborne before it's 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
    Won't 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 to come in behind them
    Move to their blindsides and firing again
    Bandits at eight o'clock move in behind us
    Ten ME-109's out of the sun
    Ascending and turning our Spitfires to face them
    Heading straight for them I press down my guns
    Rolling, turning, diving
    Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
    Rolling, turning, diving
    Rolling, turning, diving
    Run
    Live to fly
    Fly to live
    Do or die
    Won't you run
    Live to fly
    Fly to live
    Aces high

    Thanks for everything you do Tommy. You are one sent by God to fill our voids with all your work.

    Tommy, hear me well,
    For I have a tale to tell,
    Of music that stirs the soul,
    And lifts us to heights untold.
    Your voice, a weapon of sound,
    Echoes through the air and around,
    With power that shakes the ground,
    And leaves all who hear spellbound.
    And Fear of the Dark, your cover's great,
    It fills us with a fiery state,
    Of passion and energy that's innate,
    And makes us believe in fate.
    And Aces High, oh what a sight,
    It soars through the skies like a knight,
    With glory and honor, a pure delight,
    A masterpiece that's pure and bright.
    Tommy, keep singing with all your might,
    For your music brings us light,
    And though the world may not be right,
    With you we can conquer any fight.

    What an amazing experience to see, hear an feel those emotions from your songs.
    Fantastic tight musicianship, and a great sence of humor (especially the picks on Joakims forehead😂😂)
    All in all, my deepest and cincerest respect for what you do, the history behind your songs.

    Tommy might be the most skilled musician on the planet. Not even joking, His singing is up there with the best professional singers. His guitar playing is flawless and can shred as good as anyone Then you have bass, piano that Tommy also plays. With all that Tommy still has to record the tracks, create the drums, and mix the whole thing. Lastly shoot a video and edit that. its totally insane what Tommy is doing. With that said, simply find me a singer and guitar player that on the same level as Tommy. I dont think there is one.

    Brilliance and awesomeness overload right here! Man, you took an already classic 80s heavy metal anthem and elevated it to a whole new level of epicness! How is that even possible I really don't know. I just can't understand it! All I know for sure is that you delivered yet another hall of fame worthy performance! No guestions asked, no holds barred, hands down this is the best cover I have ever heard of this song and it stands proudly alongside the original! At least for me! I mean the energy, the passion, the raw power in your voice... second to none, dude! And that finish was just the icing on the cake! Holy f@#$, man! That style singing suits you perfectly!!!! I know I've said it numerous times before, but I will say it again: I think Geoff Tate most definitely should be next. "Take hold of the flame" or "Walk in the shadows" or whatever, man. I really think tou should give it a shot. I"m sure the result will be 🔥🔥🔥🔥Anyways, keep blowing our minds away, bro! Have a great Weekend!.. 😉🤘🤟
