I SPEED toward 21 questions with legendary rocker...

Mmmm great dawning all my electric rocker friends. Today is a day like none other. Today is a new day. A day for living and living happily without the concerns of worldly, the concerns of the weakened economy, the inflated prices, our dwindled securities, the lack of healthy, the lack of love. Today is a new day and we can all decide on how we are going to spend this rotation. Personally, I am going to hang with my electrics, cook a fabulous healthy, enjoy a great wine, and share with my closest the mysterious working of DESTINY….
….which prompts me force quit my i-tunes and allow random to pick today’s ELECTRIC FEATURE…..
R U ready? Ok. Here I go. I am a tad nervous. R u sure ur ready? OK. OK. So I am force quitting “Devil Inside” and now have restarted itunes and have hit play and…….
ooooooo baby……
…….Today’s TASTY ELECTRIC FEATURE IS……

..DIO..

I Speed At Night
(21 questions to legendary metal rocker/lyrist RONNIE JAMES DIO in parenthesis)

Alright,
Dark touches, send rushes through the brain

(mmmm I have experience the dark chills myself Ronnie, and my first question is…Is there a source behind these rushes from Dark touches? I read that u were raised Catholic? Is this true? Is this an experience that fuels your lyrics?)

Black's whiter, burns brighter than the flame

(As I writer, I find this sentiment especially interesting. Black can stand for so many things, as can the word white. So Question 2: Is it just the hypocrisy of language or do you find black to truly be brighter then white, even though black is merely the absence of light.)

No shadows. Just whispers in the wind

(No I don’t suppose in blackness there can be any shadows. Question 3: What exactly is the wind whispering to you, Ronnie?)

No faces. Just places to begin

(Question 4: How can one see faces or anything else, if there is no light?
Question 5: How can you see to know where to begin?)

I just come seeking pleasure

(ahhhhh pleasure in the depths of darknesss…. Mmmmm but Question 6: Doesn’t a little light make everything more pleasurable? I mean, lights out is fine, but does that not then fully rely on an active and vivid imagination instead of sight?)

I hate the light

(Sorry to hear about your hatred of light.
Question 7: Do you know what has caused such hatred?
Question 8: Has not your hatred made you a very wealthy prosperous?
Question 9: Do you like being successful?
Question 10: Since your success, do you find it more difficult to find inspiration? Question 11: Since your success, do you find it more difficult to hate?)

I speed at night
I speed at night
I speed at night
alright

My demons, they seem to disappear

(Question 12: How can you see anything, Ronnie, in the darkness? Demons or angels?)

No vision. I only see to hear

(Question 13: How can one be as successful as you have been, without vision? So again, what are you hearing in this dark that has caused your great success? Question 14: Do you question this source?
Question 15: Can you rely on this source?)

Protection, I never needed none

(Question 16: How is it that you feel so secure in this world of dark in which you live?)

Direction just nowhere near the sun

(Question 17: Does heading in the opposite direction of the sun not cause any distress, or do you believe that dark will always exist?)

You've got some stairs to heaven. You may be right

(Question 18: Do you believe in heaven? And to clarify, I don’t have know of any stairways, but I do believe in the power of love and with the lights turned BRIGHT!)

I only know in my world, I hate the light
(Question 19: Is it true that you came up with the devil horns hand gesture?
Question 20: Does the MAFIA still exist?
Question 21: Ronnie Dio and the Prophets? Why the name of this early band and thank you for letting me toss out my questions at you. I love your metal mind and soul. Let’s do a face-2-face to chat about the source of inspiration.)

I speed at night
I speed at night
I speed at night
I speed at night
Alright

LOVE IS IN….SPREAD IT….GIVE IT….REAP THE ENLIGHTMENT.


Today’s BUNNY CHALLENGE: Say something nice to a human and don’t forget the devil horn gesture and a ROCK ON afterwards.

Hope you have an AWESOME.
