A generation after the phrase heavy metal was first coined, | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
those characteristic lip-biting guitar breaks, a mutation | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
of the blues, met the contemporary urban blues of New York rappers. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
The result was the blockbusting LP Walk This Way | 0:06:56 | 0:06:59 | |
and the two were put together by our live turn tonight, Run DMC. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:03 | |

# The lady said, "Yes, man", smiled and he smiled back | 0:07:42 | 0:07:46 | |

# When I'm alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall | 0:10:01 | 0:10:03 | |
# And in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call | 0:10:03 | 0:10:06 | |
# Telling me I need a girl who's as sweet as a dove | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
# For the first time in my life, I see I need love | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
# There I was giggling about the games | 0:10:11 | 0:10:14 | |
# That I had played with many hearts, and I'm not saying no names | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
# Then the thought occurred, tear drops made my eyes burn | 0:10:17 | 0:10:20 | |
# As I said to myself, "Look what you've done to her" | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
# I can feel it inside I can't explain how it feels | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
# All I know is that I'll never dish another raw deal | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
# Playing make believe pretending that I'm true | 0:10:28 | 0:10:30 | |
# Holding in my laugh as I say that I love you | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
# Saying amor, kissing you on the ear | 0:10:33 | 0:10:36 | |
# Whispering I love you and I'll always be here | 0:10:36 | 0:10:39 | |
# Although I often reminisce I can't believe that I found | 0:10:39 | 0:10:42 | |
# A desire for true love floating around | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
# Inside my soul because my soul is cold | 0:10:44 | 0:10:47 | |
# One half of me deserves to be this way till I'm old | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
# But the other half needs affection and joy | 0:10:50 | 0:10:53 | |
# And the warmth that is created by a girl and a boy | 0:10:53 | 0:10:55 | |
# I need love... # | 0:10:55 | 0:10:57 | |
Everybody, put your hands in the air and wave them slow from side to side. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:01 | |

# It's deja vu whenever I'm with you | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
# I could go on forever telling you what I do | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
# But where you at? You're neither here nor there | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |
# I swear I can't find you anywhere | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
# Damn sure you ain't in my closet or under my rug | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
# This love search is really making me bug | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
# And if you know who you are why don't you make yourself seen? | 0:11:49 | 0:11:52 | |
# Take the chance with my love and you'll find out what I mean | 0:11:52 | 0:11:55 | |
# Fantasies can run but they can't hide | 0:11:55 | 0:11:57 | |
# And when I find you I'm gon' pour all my love inside | 0:11:57 | 0:12:00 | |
# I need love... # | 0:12:00 | 0:12:02 | |
Everybody, clap your hands real slow and we gon' get busy like that. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:06 | |

# So I dig into my pocket, all my money is spent | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
# So I dig deeper but still comin' up with lint | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
# So I start my mission, leave my residence | 0:15:30 | 0:15:32 | |
# Thinkin' how could I get some dead presidents | 0:15:32 | 0:15:35 | |
# I need money, I used to be a stick-up kid | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |

# But now I learned to earn cos I'm righteous | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
# I feel great, so maybe I might just | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
# Search for a nine to five, if I strive | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
# Then maybe I'll stay alive | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
# So I walk up the street whistlin' this | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
# Feelin' out of place, cos, man, do I miss | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
# A pen and a paper, a stereo, a tape of | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
# Me and Eric B, and a nice big plate of | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
# Fish, which is my favourite dish | 0:16:09 | 0:16:12 | |
# But without no money it's still a wish | 0:16:12 | 0:16:14 | |
# Cos I don't like to dream about gettin' paid | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
# So I dig into the books of the rhymes that I made | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
# So now to test to see if I got pull | 0:16:19 | 0:16:22 | |
# Hit the studio, cos I'm paid in full | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |

-You were writing rap from the moment you were a small kid, really, weren't you? -Like nine years old. | 0:56:43 | 0:56:48 | |

outside freestyling about what everyone in the neighbourhood | 0:56:51 | 0:56:54 | |
had on and he, you know, attracted this big crowd and it was, like, | 0:56:54 | 0:56:57 | |
just so fun and I was so fascinated by it, and that's pretty much when | 0:56:57 | 0:57:01 | |
