...and I've got such a long way to go to make it to the border of Mexico

sooo I RIDE LIKE THE WIND

I always liked this song. A lot of fun.

The Christopher Cross version is cool as well.

I know most hate Destiny, but I've always really liked that album.

Me too. Songs like I CANT WAIT ANYMORE, or RED ALERT are great.

I love all 80s Saxon albums. I even like Rock The Nations.

The only albums I find somewhat hit and miss are Forever Free and Dogs of War - however even those albums both have some very strong songs.

One of my guilty pleasures.

I like Destiny a lot but imo it's a weaker album for Saxon.

Both Destiny and Rock the Nations are comparatively weaker than the earlier albums.

Rock The Nations is imo at least the strongest of the two and closer to say Crusader or Innocence though not quite as good as either of those albums. My only gripe with RTN is that it can be too samey at times.

Maybe it's just me, but Destiny seems to me like a commercial version of Innocence Is No Excuse.

My fave cover song. I would love to hear saxon play this song live and be there

I believe dogs of war to be a very very solid album, but it just needs repetitive listens to really get into it.

I'm a huge fan of saxon, which are among my top 5 favourite bands, but i also admit that Biff's vocals are not very strong.
