A Song for the Stalkers

Recommended Posts

This is, in my opinion, the perfect song for you stalkers out there. This is actually a pretty good tune by Queensrÿche from 1986 "Rage for Order" (yeah, super big hair, leather, make-up, chains all that screaming rock stuff :P). The song was written by some guy name Dal Bello in '84...anyway...

So, for you stalkers, and stalkees, I hope you'll relate:
Quote


I like to look at shadows sweating on the wall
I get excited when I hear footsteps in the hall
Outside your balcony I have a room with a view
And I'm watching you
I dial your telephone each and every afternoon
I wait by your door till you're asleep at night
And when you're alone I know when you
Turn out the light

I'm gonna get close to you
Oh-oh-so close to you
I'm gonna get close to you
I'm gonna get close...

You fumble for your keys
I'm six or seven steps behind you
I'm so close to you
Are you terrified of me? What do I know about you
How did I find out?
You think I'm a fool or maybe some kind of lunatic
Say I'm wasting my time buy I know what to do with it
It's as plain as black and white

I'm gonna get close to you
Oh-oh-so close to you
I'm gonna get close to you
Oh so close

If you knew my infinite charm
There'd be no reason to be so alarmed
Maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm right
Mybe I'm some kind of lunatic
You say I'm wasting all of my time
But I know what to do with it
It's as plain as black and white

I'm gonna get close to you
Oh-oh-so close to you
I'm gonna get close to you
I'm like a hungry criminal
and your protection is minima
So minimal



:P Go ahead...make the call! :D:P
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Hey Max!

I can't be 100% certain because I wasn't THAT into the Big Hair metal (I can hold my own) but I'm quite sure that the Dal Bello 'guy' you refer to is actually not a guy.

Lisa Dal Bello had a single out called Let's Tango in 1987 that I just can't forget, so I did some digging.

given that bio, I'd bet my last jump ticket that she's the Metal Queen that penned the stalker song >:(

No bet...but the possibility of an obsessive woman is certainly feasible!! :D
