Doro - Angels Never Die - Song: Bad Blood

Angels Never Die is the fourth solo album of the German female hard rock singer Doro Pesch. The album was released in February 1993 and was produced by Jack Ponti and Vic Pepe. The two producers had worked with Alice Cooper on the hit single "Hey Stoopid" and had produced minor glam metal bands like Surgin’ and Baton Rouge. The sound and musical style of Angels Never Die is very similar to what can be heard on the second Doro solo album, alternating heavy rock tracks with large choruses and power ballads, in the vein of the declining pop metal that had dominated the American rock charts for the first part of the decade.

The album was not published in the USA and had limited success in Europe. However, the video for the song "Bad Blood" was voted best anti-racism video during the first MTV Europe Music Awards ceremony in 1994

"Bad Blood"

[Chorus:]
Bad blood, rivers run dry
Thunder comes and the children cry, bad blood
Never can change, no one here to blame
Bad blood, older than time
Followed me down from my father's tribe
Bad blood, making me shake
Running through my veins, bad blood

Too many questions, so many unanswered times
Most times the finger points at me
In my confusion, might slip and cross the line
I'm not to blame for all you see
You can't help me, it's in my soul
Pray for mercy, nowhere else to go

[Chorus]

In my confession, I swear and cross my heart
I stand before you what I am
Gunpowder ready, just waiting for a spark
And those before me understand
Please protect me, keep me safe
Heaven help me, save me from this fate

[Chorus]

I'm swimming hard and fast
Against the time
Lost in a flood
Of ancient fire

[Chorus]
