44 Minutes

[ch29]

I don't know if any of you are heavy metal fans, but Megadeth has a song called "44 Minutes" on their new album "Endgame." The song is about the North Hollywood Shootout from 1997. The album comes out on 9/15/09. You can listen to the song at www.myspace.com/megadeth.

Interesting find, thanks for sharing.

The music itself isn't bad... but the lyrics are just kind of weird. Although, if this was most artist the lyrics would have been something to the effect of "Those idiot cops are lame and should have all died. Long live Phillips and Matasareanu!!!" Or something.

Good gawd, it's been ages, but I actually saw Megadeth in concert...good stuff too, they didn't miss a note, absolutely spot on perfection when they play live.

Here are the lyrics I found.

Baptized in a firefight
Hot blood running cold as ice
44 Minutes of target practice
All hell breaking loose
All blood washing the porch
Down to a firefight, with a pocketknife...

Some of the lyrics on the net are wrong, but i think the chorus is supposed to be:

Baptized in a firefight
Hot blood running cold as ice
44 minutes of target practice
All hell is breaking loose
Outgunned, watching the force come to a firefight
With a pocketknife
Getting screwed until they shot Achille's heel
And brought down the beast
