Dirkschneider & the Old Gang - "Where The Angels Fly" (video)

On the horizon
Where the sea meets night
I see the face of a warrior

We hear them crying
In the fading light
A shadow falls on a foreigner

They long for the distance
They reach for the sky
At the end of a rainbow
Risin' up high

Where the angels fly
Where the angels fly

They fall in silence
With a saddening sound
And all that's left's a memorial

The skies still wonder
Neither lost nor found
Remaining humble and glorious
They long for the distance...

Where the angels fly
Flying high
Where the angels fly
At the end of a rainbow - risin' up high

They roam the heavens
On wings of gold
A shining light full of harmony

With no surrender
Not a lie untold
Forever now and eternally

They long for the distance...
Where the angels fly...

Τρία πρώην μέλη των Accept, ο Udo Dirkschneider, ο Peter Baltes και ο Stefan Kaufmann, ενώσανε τις δυνάμεις τους. Η μπάντα ονομάσθηκε Dirkschneider & the Old Gang και το (πρώτο;) δισκογραφικό αποτέλεσμα της συνεργασίας είναι το single (και το βίντεο) του τραγουδιού "Where The Angels Fly", για το οποίο ο Peter Baltes είχε πει τον περασμένο Μάιο: 

«About a month ago Stefan and I where asked to write a song for Germany's Musikkorps to say Thank You to the frontline workers all around the world who have been risking their lives day in and day out during the Corona crisis. These are certainly challenging times and we are all affected one way or another. Let's salute all those who ran into the fire saving lives. They are the true angels.» 

UDO: «Three of the former Accept mates are reunited again! After having released our new record WE ARE ONE successfully, we are proud to present a very special video: “Where the Angels fly“. It also contains another aspect oft he "We Are One" philosophy: for the first time for ages, Udo Dirkschneider and Peter Baltes are singing togehter again on one song! Next to them, also Stefan Kaufmann is involved in the song and in the songwriting.» 

Peter Baltes: «Here is the new Video for the song "Where the Angels fly". It was really a lot of fun working with my old bandmates again. Stefan & I wrote the song to say Thank You to all the front line workers around the globe fighting this deadly Virus. My wife and I had Covid for several weeks. We are all clear now. So I am back working in the studio. I wish for all of you to stay healthy.»
