Laugh like the head of Apollo
Young and strong on the wings of tomorrow
Rise up in millions get off your knees
Dispelling the demons
In the valley of danger
We all work together, sculptures in sorrow
With love light to follow, on
Sweet head of Apollo
Rage hard, into the light
Rage hard, doing it right, doing it right
Rage Hard, against the dark
Rage Hard, make your mark
Let the tournament begin
Don't give up and don't give in
Strength to rise up, strength to win
Strength to save the wor(l)d from losing
Rage Hard, into the light
Rage Hard, doing it right
Rage Hard, against the dark
Rage Hard
Rage!
Rage Hard
Though blue eyes of children
They shine without fear
Hope is the future, with oceans of cheer
Nothing to fear
There's nothing to fear
Though laughter of angels resounding
From heaven keep fighting the favours
Of charlatan saviours, charlatan saviours
Rage hard, into the light
Rage hard, doing it right, doing it right
Rage Hard, against the dark
Rage Hard, make your mark
Let the tournament begin
Don't give up and don't give in
Rage hard, into the light
Rage hard, doing it right
Rage Hard, against the dark
Rage Hard, make your mark
I don't know which way to go
My love's like driven snow
When we past the test of time
My love you shall be mine
And if only, lost and lonely
Is all that's wrong with me, we' ll be free
Be free, be free
Laugh like the head of apollo
Young and strong on the wings of tomorrow
Rage Hard
Rage Hard
Let the tournament begin
Don't give up and don't give in
Rage Hard, into the light
Rage Hard, doing it right
Let the tournament begin
Don't give up and don't give in
Strength to rise up, strength to win
Strength to save the wor(l)d from losing
Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Rage Hard (04:15)
German TV appearance in october 1986.
This was my dads favourite frankie laine song, and when us kids were growing up he'd sing it to us, ok "sing" is maybe not the best word to describe it. "Im not singing it wrong frankie recorded it wrong" was his response to us kids when he got the words wrong(only dads are allowed to do that!!).
Sadly dad died in february 1994.
"Now that Frankie has joined him upstairs maybe he will teach him the proper words" was the comment my mum made when Frankie Laine died."but i doubt it"
Bye Dad.

I love this song. Every time my family gets together and people have a few, this is one of the songs that gets requested. To be honest, we always mix up the verses, but, still, it's great to hear. Thank you for posting.

Have not heard this for over 50 years. Just as I remembered it on the old 78 record. Thank you markalson1938,

True. The reason I held onto Command Peformance was because it includes "Rose, Rose I Love You" a song my parents recalled to me when they learned I was dating a Chinese girl named Rose.

Any idea if "Command Performance" was ever issued as a CD? I'd love to get hold of it. If memory serves, "Gandy Dancers' Ball" was also on the LP; another great but little known song of his.
