"Lift Me Up" is the first single from The Wrong Side Of Heaven And The Righteous Side Of Hell Volume 1, the upcoming fourth studio album from Five Finger Death Punch, and is the fifteenth single overall from the band. The song features Rob Halford, lead vocalist for Judas Priest. Halford joined the quintet at the Revolver Golden Gods Awards ceremony on May 2, 2013 to premier the tune, with lead singer Ivan L. Moody referring to himself as being "the guest" on the song.[1]

Premise [link]

According to Moody, the composition was about overcoming routine roadblocks and less-than-ideal circumstances in life. He then goes on to say that while most of us weren't born into wealth, if life deals you a bad hand, you still have to play with the cards that life deals you. Moody closes by stating that the song is intended to inspire and that if you play your hand right, you might still come out on top.[2]

Video [link]

The song begins with Moody singing the first verse along with the chorus, followed by Halford singing the second verse and the two of them singing the final refrain.[3] The current lyric video features dark skies, lightning as well as microorganisms attacking one another.[4]

    Lift Me Up (Yes song)

    "Lift Me Up" is a song by the progressive rock band Yes. It was the first single released from their 1991 "reunion" album Union. It reached the number-one spot on the Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart in May 1991, and stayed at the top for six weeks. It also charted on the Billboard Hot 100, their last single to do so.

    Background

    Following Yes's 1987–88 tour to support the Big Generator album, singer Jon Anderson left the band and formed a new group with 1970s-era Yes members Steve Howe (guitars), Rick Wakeman (keyboards) and Bill Bruford (drums). As their new band Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe, the quartet released a self-titled album and went on tour.

    Meanwhile, the remaining members of the "official" Yes, guitarist Trevor Rabin, bassist Chris Squire, drummer Alan White and keyboardist Tony Kaye, continued work on a follow-up to Big Generator. Among the songs recorded was the Rabin- and Squire-penned "Lift Me Up", the lyrics of which allude to homelessness:

    The two competing bands had fought for the rights to use the "Yes" name, with the Squire/Rabin/White/Kaye faction filing suit to prevent Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe from using the name "Yes" during their tour promotion. However, once both factions were signed to Arista Records, the record label decided to combine the musicians' efforts and produce an album, Union, featuring songs from each group. "Lift Me Up" was one of four Rabin or Squire songs included on the album; its follow-up single, "Saving My Heart", was another.

    Lift Me Up

    by: Darren Hayes

    When I'm down on my luck and im searching for my soul
    When i'm feeling too much and i start to lose control
    When i'm down so low that even enemies dont wanna know
    You still care for me say a prayer for me and i know
    Ooo I like you hangin' round
    Cause you lift me up when i am upside down
    Ooo you are my favourite sound
    Cause youre always down for
    Lifting me up like an angel when i hit the ground
    Feel your arms all around me when im feeling down
    Lift me up like an angel when i hit my low
    when your arms are around me
    i don't wanna let you go
    When i'm lost along way and I can't face another day
    And if i stumble on the road and if i cant carry the load
    And if i lose my faith, and kindness,and generosity
    Would you hold my hand?
    Say you understand my pain
    Ooo i like you hangin' around
    Cause you lift me up when i am upside down
    Ooo you are like an angel when i hit my low
    When your arms are around me
    I don't wanna let you go
    Lifting me up like an angel when i hit the ground
    Feel your arms all around me when i'm feeling down
    Lift me up like an angel when i hit my low
    When your arms are around me
    i don't wanna let you go
    Its been a long hard road and its only just begun my friend
    And this i know you helped me carry the load
    Cause you're always down for
    Lifting me up like an angel when i hit the ground
    Feel your arms all around mewhen im feeling down
    LIft me up like an angel when i hit my low
    Well youre always around
    Youre my favourite sound
    Lift me up like an angel when i hit the ground
    Feel your arms all around me when im feeling down
    Lift me up like an angel when i hit my low
    When your arms are around me

    I don't wanna let you go
    Cause you lift me up now
