Lyrics

I like to dream, yes, yes Right between the sound machine On a cloud of sound I drift in the night Any place it goes is right Goes far, flies near To the stars away from here

Well, you don't know what we can find Why don't you come with me, little girl On a magic carpet ride

Well, you don't know what we can see Why don't you tell your dreams to me Fantasy will set you free

Close your eyes, girl Look inside, girl Let the sound take you away

Last night I hold Aladdin's lamp And so I wished that I could stay Before the thing could answer me Well, someone came and took the lamp away I looked around, a lousy candle's all I found

Well, you don't know what we can find Why don't you come with me, little girl On a magic carpet ride

Well, you don't know what we can see Why don't you tell your dreams to me Fantasy will set you free

Close your eyes, girl Look inside, girl Let the sound take you away

You don't know what we can find Why don't you come with me, little girl On a magic carpet ride

Well, you don't know what we can see Why don't you tell your dreams to me Fantasy will set you free

Steppenwolf: Gold-Their Great Hits (1971)

Dunhill Records

[freaxs-blog]

Hey music fam! 🎶 Dive into the wild world of Steppenwolf with me! Let's rewind the clock to the late '60s when the iconic rock band emerged from the cosmic dust.

In 1967, Steppenwolf was born in the heart of Los Angeles. The founding members included the visionary John Kay, the guitar of Michael Monarch, Goldy McJohn on keys, Rushton Moreve on bass, and Jerry Edmonton holding down the beats.

Steppenwolf's lineup saw a few changes over the years, but the heartbeat of the band, John Kay, remained a constant force. Fun fact: The name "Steppenwolf" was inspired by Hermann Hesse's novel, reflecting the rebellious spirit that defined their sound.

Their journey soared with hits like "Magic Carpet Ride" and "The Pusher," but it was the anthem of the open road, "Born to Be Wild," that catapulted them to legendary status.

Let's talk about that motorcycle-revving, freedom-celebrating anthem! "Born to Be Wild" roared onto the scene in 1968 as the soundtrack for the counterculture, forever linking Steppenwolf to the spirit of rebellion.

Their self-titled debut album in 1968 set the stage for their wild ride. Packed with raw energy and psychedelic vibes, it's a timeless gem that still shakes the speakers.

Did you know Steppenwolf was the first band to use the term "heavy metal" in their song "Born to Be Wild"? Talk about setting the stage for a genre!

Let's keep the rock 'n' roll spirit alive! Follow for more musical journeys, classic rock tales, and your daily dose of sonic nostalgia. 🎸
