Vandenberg - "Friday Night" (TopPop 1982)
During the week I'm only half alive
Wasting my time all day from 9 to 5
They think I'm slow and I'm a lazy guy
They should see me now, I'm here in your town
I'm blowing the fuses right out
Friday night - gonna let it go
Dynamite - ready to explode
My boss says I'm not working hard enough
Don't even know that I sleep on the job
I'm only interested in rock 'n' roll
I'm using the week to save energy
I'm recharging my batteries - ow!
Friday night - gonna let it go, yeah
Dynamite - ready to explode
Friday's okay
I get my pay
Spending all night
On rock, women and wine
Oh-oh - I'm allergic to those working days
Oh-oh - but I must survive till Friday, Friday, Friday
Friday night - gonna let it go, yeah
Dynamite - ready to explode
I just can't wait till
Friday night - gonna let it go, yeah
Dynamite - ready to explode, oho
Friday night - Friday night
Dynamite - that's the night that I like, that I like
Friday night...
Wasting my time all day from 9 to 5
They think I'm slow and I'm a lazy guy
They should see me now, I'm here in your town
I'm blowing the fuses right out
Friday night - gonna let it go
Dynamite - ready to explode
My boss says I'm not working hard enough
Don't even know that I sleep on the job
I'm only interested in rock 'n' roll
I'm using the week to save energy
I'm recharging my batteries - ow!
Friday night - gonna let it go, yeah
Dynamite - ready to explode
Friday's okay
I get my pay
Spending all night
On rock, women and wine
Oh-oh - I'm allergic to those working days
Oh-oh - but I must survive till Friday, Friday, Friday
Friday night - gonna let it go, yeah
Dynamite - ready to explode
I just can't wait till
Friday night - gonna let it go, yeah
Dynamite - ready to explode, oho
Friday night - Friday night
Dynamite - that's the night that I like, that I like
Friday night...
Ο Adrian Vandenberg έγινε ευρέως γνωστός στο μουσικόφιλο κοινό από την θητεία του στους Whitesnake. 66χρονος Ολλανδός κιθαρίστας, ο οποίος ξεκίνησε την δισκογραφική του καριέρα το 1978 με τους Teaser (και τον ομώνυμο δίσκο τους). Ακολούθησαν οι Vandenberg κυκλοφορώντας (το διάστημα 1982-1985) τρία albums.
Τα τελευταία χρόνια δημιούργησε τους Vandenberg's MoonKings με απολογισμό δύο "κανονικά" και ένα ακουστικό album. Εν έτει 2020 επαναδημιούργησε τους Vandenberg με τον Ronnie Romero (Rainbow, The Ferrymen, CoreLeoni, ex-Lords of Black κλπ) στα φωνητικά (έχει αποχωρήσει πλέον), τον Randy van der Elsen (Tank) στο μπάσο και τον Koen Herfst στα τύμπανα, ενώ συνεισφέρουν ως καλεσμένοι καλλιτέχνες όπως ο Rudy Sarzo ή ο Brian Tichy.
Το αποτέλεσμα της επανασύνδεσης το ακούμε με την κυκλοφορία του τέταρτου δίσκου των Vandenberg υπό τον τίτλο "2020" που "βγήκε" πέρυσι. Το τραγούδι "Friday Night" μας "έρχεται" από το μακρινό 1983 και τον δίσκο "Heading for a Storm", ενώ κυκλοφόρησε (την ίδια χρονιά) και αυτόνομα (ως single) με το "This Is War" στην δεύτερη πλευρά του βινυλίου.
Το βίντεο της σημερινής ανάρτησης προέρχεται από την Ολλανδική μουσική τηλεοπτική εκπομπή TopPop και φιλμογραφήθηκε στις 23 Φεβρουαρίου του 1982 (δηλαδή πριν την κυκλοφορία του δίσκου που περιλαμβάνει το τραγούδι)...
