1) Helix (formerly known as The Helix Field Band) is a Canadian hard rock and heavy metal band. They formed in 1974, and are best known for their 1984 single "Rock You". The original lineup was formed by drummer Bruce Arnold, and consisted of lead vocalist Brian Vollmer, guitarists Ron Watson and Rick "Minstrel" Trembley, keyboardist Don Simmons, and bassist Keith "Bert" Zurbrigg. However, their most well known lineup, and the one that recorded "Rock You", was the 1980s version of the band: Vollmer on vocals, accompanied by guitarists Brent "The Doctor" Doerner and Paul Hackman, bassist Daryl Gray, and drummer Greg "Fritz" Hinz. The history of the band has been marked by many lineup changes, with Vollmer being the sole constant member and only remaining member of the original lineup. Although Hackman was killed in a tour bus accident in 1992, the surviving members of the 1980s lineup reunited in 2009 for an album and have continued to tour since 2011. Watson died in 2019. Simmons died in 2021.

Heavy Metal Love
Helix Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She's my heavy metal love
She plays guitar just like a ringin' the bell
She's my heavy metal love
Leather and lace, you know what I've found
She's my heavy metal love
When the lights go up, she gets down
[Chorus]
I like the caress of steel
It's the hard edge that I feel
Heavy metal love
She's my heavy metal love
Ooh yeah heavy metal love
She's my heavy metal love
She's not the kind of girl
You bring home to mom
She's my heavy metal love
She's dirty and mean
But she's lots of fun
She's my heavy metal love
[Chorus]
Heavy metal love
She's my heavy metal love
Ooh yeah heavy metal love
She's my heavy metal love
Yeah!
Heavy metal love
She's my heavy metal love
Ooh yeah heavy metal love
She's my heavy metal love
Heavy metal love
She's my heavy metal love
Ooh yeah heavy metal love
She's my heavy metal love
The song "Heavy Metal Love" by Helix is an ode to the heavy metal subgenre of music and the passionate love that can come from it. In the first verse, the singer describes his "baby" as "hard as nails" and "plays guitar just like a ringin' the bell" which highlights his admiration for her musical talents. The use of "leather and lace" in the second verse exemplifies the stereotype that many heavy metal musicians and fans alike often incorporate into their fashion choices. The chorus further emphasizes the sentiment of the song, with the singer stating that he likes the "caress of steel" and the "hard edge" that comes with heavy metal music.
The overall theme of the song is one of rebellion and excitement. The singer acknowledges that his heavy metal love may not be the kind of girl you bring home to your mom, but he still revels in her "dirty and mean" personality traits. The fast-paced, guitar-heavy music perfectly encapsulates the wildness and intensity of the heavy metal scene, allowing the song to fully capture the essence of this genre of music and its culture.

You probably liked the Scorpions live the best, but
Quiet Riot had a pretty solid sound as well. Canada
had some kick a## bands in the days April Wine,
Triumph, and of course Rush being top dogs! The
world sure enjoyed the sounds of Canada. And you
are 100% right about the time going. All the girls I
took to those good concerts are all grandmas' now!
Those poor grandkids stuck with Taylor Swift, Lady
Goo Goo, and the other non-sense music that you
hear today. It is not all bad, but it will never be what we
listened to decades ago.
