This song really shows just how much Metallica was influenced by Diamond Head. Most of these riffs, you can point to a Metallica song, and say "hey, that's sounds kinda like that riff from __"
I think the verse riff of Seek and Destroy sounds a lot like the verse riff from this one, just with more palm muted Es.
Everyone is talking about how they can see how this led to Metallica. Moreso, I'm hearing how this came from Led Zeppelin. During the bridge, I hear elements of Achilles' Last Stand and Whole Lotta Love.
Over and under, do you go down to the sea
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Sweet and timely caress, dear babe fulfillin' me
I can feel her heart, it is beating down inside
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Tasty, tasty, tasty, tasty
Into her valley, all her charms taste of love
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Fragrance of my dreams, yeah go down, take my love
Oh yeah, yeah
Taste my bitter wine,
'Cause there's something boiling up inside
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Tasty, tasty, tasty, tasty
Faster, love
Make me go
Shoot me
Faster, faster
Love, sucking my love
Oh Lord, sucking my love
Oh Lord, sucking my love...
