Jeden ze základních kamenů hardrockové muziky 70. let a skupina, která naznačila další ubírání rockové hudby směrem k heavy metalu. Pozdější metalové proudy navazovaly i na jejich složku textovou a ideovou (okultismus, mysticismus apod.)....

Píseň: Ear In The Wall

Interpret:
Black Sabbath
Album:
The Dio Years
Hello can you hear me
I might not be alone
Don't see anyone near me
But I just won't go home again
Lets meet in the morning
I just can't speak tonight
This is more than a warning
Be silent till it's light and then


You know I'll be there
Waiting for someone to believe me
Remembering it all
Makes my flesh start to crawl
I've seen an ear in the wall


This time it could prove it
But you've heard this all before
Cry wolf and you're moving
To a special kind of danger zone
I need a witness
Somebody just like you
So bring an exorcist
A wizard and the Holy Ghost


You know I'll be there
Waiting for someone who believes me
Remembering it all
Makes my flesh creep and crawl
I've seen an ear in the wall


One more reason one more time
Someone's searching through my mind
Now where am I suppose to go
It's not who you are it's who you know
What's it gonna be


I knew you would answer
I'm the curiosity
You could miss a chance because
The fool might see reality
There it is in the corner
You must be going blind
What's wrong were you born before
Your god invented eyes


It's got to be there
Grinding away at my secrets
It's going so dark
And you can't see at all
I'll turn on some lights
So you're sure not to fall
It's next to the eye in the wall
