1) No Mercy - is a pop and dance music group formed by three guys, Milli Vanilli mastermind Frank Farian in Florida in 1995, consisting of twin brothers Ariel and Gabriel Hernรกndez, from Miami, Florida, and Marty Cintron III from New York.
In 1996, No Mercy released their debut album titled My Promise (it was self-titled in the U.S.) and produced four Hot 100 hits, including โWhere Do You Goโ, (a cover of La Boucheโs โWhere Do You Goโ) which hit number 5. This was followed by the single โPlease Donโt Goโ which reached number 21. Next up was "When I Die", and that was followed by a cover of Exile's "Kiss You All Over" which was a huge U.S. dance floor smash, hitting the number one spot on Billboard's Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart.
No Mercyโs second album, More, included singles such as โHello How Are Youโ, โMore Than A Feelingโ (originally recorded by Boston) and โTu Amorโ also achieved success- but was never released in the U.S.
In 2002, a single, โDonโt Let Me Be Misunderstoodโ, was released to gauge support for No Mercyโs third album. The producer decided to instead rework the songs for solo artist Daniel Lopesโ debut album, Shine On, in 2003. No Mercy are featured on the track โSummer Angelโ of Lopesโ album.[citation needed]
In October 2007, No Mercy have released their new album โDay By Dayโ under a new Australian based Independent Record Label โShow No Mercy Entertainment pty ltdโ.
The โOcean Drive Remixโ of their track โWhere Do You Goโ is featured in the film, โA Night At The Roxburyโ.
2) No Mercy - was a speed/thrash metal/hardcore band formed in the mid 1980s in Venice, California. The band was started by lead vocalist Kevin Guercio, guitarist Mike Clark, bassist Ric Clayton and drummer Sal Troy. Guercio recorded a few demos and the tracks on the Welcome To Venice compilation in 1985 before being fired and replaced by Suicidal Tendencies lead vocalist Mike Muir. Muir signed them to his independent label Suicidal Records.
In 1987 No Mercy released their first and only album Widespread Bloodshed... Love Runs Red, and were about to record their second album with many new songs already written but Ric Clayton and Sal Troy quit and, instead of recruiting new members, Mike Muir decided to โmergeโ the two bands by having Mike Clark join Suicidal Tendencies.
Clark took over much of the songwriting duties for Suicidal, shifting itโs style more to a melodic thrash metal sound similar to No Mercyโs and what would have been No Mercyโs second album became Suicidal Tendenciesโ third album: How will I laugh tomorrowโฆ when I canโt even smile today.
In 1989 Suicidal released the Controlled By Hatred-Feel Like ShitโฆDeja Vu compilation. Many of the songs on it, including โWaking The Deadโ and โControlled By Hatredโ, were re-recorded by Suicidal from the Widespread Bloodshed album.

Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood
No Mercy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sometimes I feel a little mad
But don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel
When things go wrong I feel real bad.
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
If I seem edgy, I want you to know,
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems, and I get my share,
And that's one thing I never mean to do
'Cause I love you,
Oh,
baby - don't you know I'm human
I have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself, Lord, regretting
Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Don't know I'm human
Don't let me be misunderstood
Don't know I'm human
Don't let me be misunderstood
Sometimes I feel '
Don't know I'm human
Oh baby
You're so smooth
Babe
Cuz I'm hear a song in soul ohhh
Babe ohh nooooo
Don't let me be misunderstood
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.
The lyrics to No Mercy's song "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" speak to the vulnerability and complexities of being human. The opening lines begin with a plea for understanding, as the singer asks if the listener truly understands their feelings and inner turmoil. Sometimes, they admit, they can become upset or difficult to deal with, but they stress that this does not mean they are a bad person. Rather, the ups and downs of life can get the best of anyone, and it can be easy to feel overwhelmed or lost.
The chorus of the song is where the message really comes through. The singer declares that they are "just a soul whose intentions are good" and begs for help from a higher power. They do not want to be misunderstood or judged too harshly for their mistakes or flaws, and they hope that others will give them the benefit of the doubt. This sentiment is tied up in the idea that love can conquer all, as the singer repeatedly pledges their love to the listener.
Overall, "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" is a song about empathy and compassion. It highlights the ways in which people can struggle to communicate their true feelings and intentions, and how easy it is to be judged or misinterpreted by others. Through its lyrics, the song encourages listeners to be more understanding and open-minded, and to approach life's challenges with grace and forgiveness.

I watch it nearly every day. It cheers me up. The original was from 'The Animals' = Eric Burton and Alan Price. Both very talented musicians. They were my favourite 1960s group from my area = Newcastle Upon Tyne.
