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 Hernández, 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 “Where Do You Go”, (a cover of La Bouche’s “Where Do You Go”) which hit number 5. This was followed by the single “Please Don’t Go” 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 Mercy’s second album, More, included singles such as “Hello How Are You”, “More Than A Feeling” (originally recorded by Boston) and “Tu Amor” also achieved success- but was never released in the U.S.
In 2002, a single, “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood”, was released to gauge support for No Mercy’s third album. The producer decided to instead rework the songs for solo artist Daniel Lopes’ debut album, Shine On, in 2003. No Mercy are featured on the track “Summer Angel” of Lopes’ album.[citation needed]
In October 2007, No Mercy have released their new album ‘Day By Day’ under a new Australian based Independent Record Label ‘Show No Mercy Entertainment pty ltd’.
The “Ocean Drive Remix” of their track “Where Do You Go” is featured in the film, “A Night At The Roxbury”.
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 “merge” the two bands by having Mike Clark join Suicidal Tendencies.
Clark took over much of the songwriting duties for Suicidal, shifting it’s style more to a melodic thrash metal sound similar to No Mercy’s and what would have been No Mercy’s second album became Suicidal Tendencies’ third album: How will I laugh tomorrow… when I can’t even smile today.
In 1989 Suicidal released the Controlled By Hatred-Feel Like Shit…Deja Vu compilation. Many of the songs on it, including “Waking The Dead” and “Controlled By Hatred”, were re-recorded by Suicidal from the Widespread Bloodshed album.

No Mercy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you ever left me
If I ever lost you
This heart of myne would be dying
Shadows would shine out the sun
It would be a whole dark world
Without your love beside me
And how do I survive
Here in my life
Make me walk across across the burning sands
Make me hold the whole weight of the world in my hands
Baby don't don't don't make me live without you
I'd never make it
Don't , don't , don't make me live without you
Live without you
Maybe I need you too much
Never needed anything the way I need your touch
If you ever go I'll go crazy
Take away the home that I own
Take the very air that I breathe
My very heart and soul
But bahaby
Don't take your love from me
'cause if I don't have you here
I don't have a thing
Make me walk across , across the burning sands
Make me hold the hole weight of the world in my hands
Baby don't , don't , don't make me live without you
Live without you
Make it through the day
Make it through one night
Without the one that I need in my life
Baby don't , don't , don't make live without you
Live without you
Live without you
I need you here in my arms
As long as I live
As long as I breathe
I need you here
Beside me
Make me walk across , across the burning sands
Make me hold the whole weight of the world in my hands
Baby don't , don't , don't make live without you
Live without you

I don't know what I would do
I cannot imagine what I would do
If you ever left me
If you ever went away from me
If I ever lost you
If I ever no longer had you
This heart of myne would be dying
My heart would be slowly losing life
Shadows would shine out the sun
The world would be dark and bleak
It would be a whole dark world
The entire world would be dark
Without your love beside me
Without your love next to me
And how do I survive
How can I go on living
If I don't have you here
If you are not here with me
Here in my life
Here in my existance
Make me walk across across the burning sands
Make me go through unbearable hardship
Make me hold the whole weight of the world in my hands
Make me bear too much weight
Baby don't don't don't make me live without you
Please do not make me exist without you

Take the very air that I breathe
Take the very oxygen I depend on
My very heart and soul
My very essence and core
But bahaby Don't take your love from me
But please do not withdraw your love

Make me bear too much weight
Baby don't don't don't make me live without you
Please do not make me exist without you
Make it through the day
Get through every day
Make it through one night
Endure a single night
Without the one that I need in my life
Without the one I require in my existence
I need you here in my arms
I want you in my embrace
As long as I live
For the duration of my life
As long as I breathe
For every breath I take
I need you here
I require you to be here
Beside me
Next to me
Make me walk across across the burning sands
Make me go through unbearable hardship
Make me hold the whole weight of the world in my hands
Make me bear too much weight
Baby don't don't don't make me live without you
Please do not make me exist without you
Live without you
Exist without you
