    I was a black nerd back in the 70s and 80s. Watching Star Wars and listening to hard rock. I got teased mercilessly. Today I am comfortable in my skin and happy to say that this is one of the many songs I blasted on my boom box instead of rap LOL. I have zero regrets. This song is sheer PERFECTION!!!

    This is one of my favorite Rainbow songs. One reason I like Rainbow so much is because a guy who looks like an Italian who moved to Hawaii to be an undercover cop, is in the same band that Ronnie James Dio was in. I love both Dio and Graham Bonnet.

    I was taking bass guitar lessons back in the early 80's at a local music shop, one day the owner said he had a special treat for everyone who was taking music lessons and to come to the studio he had in the back of the shop on a particular day. So on that day I went out of curiosity to see what was going on, Rainbow was there and they did a live performance for us, they put on a great show and it was cool to get to meet them!

The descending line-cliché employed in the verses is such a standard device, it's a dead give away that he is very familiar with the tricks of the trade. You don't find that in Sabbath tunes that marry the melody to the guitar riff. Then there's the good old whole-tone-up modulation to takes us back into the chorus after the mid-eight breakdown.
