1. 'Eruption' was formed in 1974 in London by vocalist Precious Wilson, lead guitarist Greg Perrineau, bassist Morgan Perrineau, keyboardist Gerry Williams, and drummer Eric Kingsley. Wilson was born in Jamaica and she moved with her family to Great Britain at the age of seven. The other members of the band came from different parts of the Caribbean and Africa. In 1975, their winning of an RCA Soul Search Contest in England brought them a record deal and their first single "Let Me Take Your Back in Time" (1976) figured prominently in the soul charts. In 1977, Boney M.'s producer Frank Farian took Eruption under his wing and signed the group with Germany-based Hansa Records. Their 1978 cover of "I Can't Stand the Rain" was a big hit internationally, reaching number five in Britain and number 18 in the U.S. (it was their only U.S. Top 40 entry). The success was sealed with "One Way Ticket," which went to number nine in the U.K. the following year. Precious Wilson left the group in 1979 to pursue a solo career and she was replaced with Kim Davies. Eruption disbanded in the mid-'80s and Wilson is the only member of the original lineup who is still active. Though successful as a solo artist, she sometimes tours under the name Eruption with her new group.
2. ERUPTION is a Slovene Thrash metal band that unites the legacy of speed, thrash and classic metal, forming it into their own unique sound. The band was formed in late 2004. They are known for menacing riffs, hard hitting beats, soaring vocals and killer live shows!
3. Another band called "Eruption" was a German avantgarde band founded by Conrad Schnitzler. Eruption performed free-form, improvisational, experimental music, some of which resembles industrial music. A few pieces do have discernible melodies and/or strong rhythmic elements, at times resembling Conrad Schnitzler's earlier work with Tangerine Dream on their Electronic Meditation album. Eruption is notable more as an incubator for later, highly successful Krautrock/Kosmische Musik bands and for the influence the various musicians had on one another than for their releases, which came more than 35 years after the music was recorded.The self-titled album, recordeded in 1970 featured the trio of Freudigmann, Schnitzler and Wolfgang Siedel and was a limited released on the Qbico label.
4. Eruption is a UK Happy Hardcore Producer, Chris Brown. He has many releases on the United Dance Label, and has worked with other prominent producers including DJ Sy, and Force & Styles.

Using electronic effects on acoustic instruments is making the specific dimension of sound. Eruption is active since 1997, and had numerous performances all around Europe.

Go Johnny Go
Eruption Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trying to find a place to lay his head
For he knew for sure that no one cared
So he tried his best now everywhere
Go Johnny Go, Go Johnny Go, Go Johnny Go
Go Johnny Go, Go Johnny Go, Go Johnny Go, go, go
Listen John B. you are so young
There is a place, somewhere over yonder
Where you can go, to see some wonders
Where even birds don't need to fly
Keep on walking, come to eleven
Won't belong, before you reach your heaven
Keep on walking,...
Keep on walking,...
Keep on walking,...
Go Johnny Go, Go Johnny Go, Go Johnny Go
Go Johnny Go, Go Johnny Go, Go Johnny Go, go, go
Oh, he was a lonely boy from nowhere's land,...
Listen John B., you are so young,...
Keep on walking, come to eleven
Won't belong, before you reach your heaven
Keep on walking,...
The lyrics of Eruption's song Go Johnny Go depict the story of a lonely boy from nowhere's land who is searching for a place to belong.

The chorus of the song tells Johnny to keep going despite the difficulties he faces and that there is a place he can go to where he will find wonders and even birds won't need to fly.

The second verse addresses him directly, telling him that he is still young and has a whole life ahead of him. It encourages him to keep walking and eventually, he will reach his "heaven." The repetition of the phrase "keep on walking" reinforces this message of perseverance and resilience. Overall, the lyrics of Go Johnny Go are a poignant reminder that no matter how difficult life may seem, one should never give up hope and keep pushing forward.
