BURNING THE WITCHES

(Burning the Witches, 1984)

“It was my first song ever on a record! I thought that was so cool. my guitar player wrote the lyrics and they’re definitely metal lyrics, ha ha! We always play it live. I still love it.”

FUR IMMER

(triumph And Agony, 1987)

“I wanted to write the most hardcore, brutal metal song ever, and then this ballad came out! It’s about a deep friendship that will last forever. I have the lyrics tattooed on my arm.”

ALL WE ARE

(triumph And Agony, 1987)

“that song took me to places that I never thought I’d go. It got heavy rotation on mtV. We did the video in los Angeles in the river basin where Terminator 2 was filmed! It’s our biggest anthem.”

I RULE THE RUINS

“this is usually our opener. It has a good drive and a great metal riff. the lyrics are full of self-confidence. I’m really proud of that one.”

THE FORTUNETEL­LER

(true At heart, 1991)

“I wrote The Fortunetel­ler in Nashville with a guy called Gary Scruggs. I went to a fortune teller in lA, and told Gary the story. It’s a very unique song; a beautiful, soulful ballad.”

LOVE ME IN BLACK

(love me In Black, 1998)

“that song is so unique. I wrote it with a guy called Jimmy harry and we just hit it off right away. I loved him so much, I asked him to produce the album and it worked out great.”

TAUSEND MAL GELEBT

(love me In Black, 1998)

“this was produced by [German industrial crew] Die Krupps and it’s a song about past lives. I was always very curious about that. I really believe that everyone has many lives.”

IT STILL HURTS

(raise Your Fist, 2012)

“It was the last duet I did with lemmy. It’s very soulful and very sad. Whenever I hear his voice on that song, my heart just melts away. I love the melodies.”

SOLDIER OF METAL

(Forever Warriors, 2018)

“Soldier Of Metal is a song for the fans. they can count on me forever. I will always soldier on, you know? I love the melody, the feel and the sincerity of this song. I mean it!”

LIVING LIFE TO THE FULLEST

(Forever United, 2018)

“this song reminds me of lemmy and all the great times we had, living it up. he lived his life the way he wanted to. he was a free spirit, and a really big idol and role model for me.”
