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 ↴
We look at it's face
It'll be me looking at you
Glad to be in one place
See the full moon
We look at it's face
It'll be me looking at you
Imagine ourselves alone in the world
Lying to each other wouldn't do
Cause we own each other's memories
Spend all our days
If we pack and away ?
Our decision is complete
Baby, let's say goodbye
When you look up to the sky
And see the full moon
We look at it's face
It'll be me looking at you
Glad to be in one place
See the full moon
We look at it's face
It'll be me looking at you
See what we've done
And you feel where we've gone
Let's not spoil the good we have
Lost the fear, lost the faith
Imagine ourselves alone in the world
We'd be bored to tears
Baby, let's say goodbye
When you look up to the sky
And see the full moon
We look at it's face
It'll be me looking at you
Glad to be in one place
See the full moon
We look at it's face
It'll be me looking at you
Glad to be in one place
See the full moon
We look at it's face
It'll be me looking at you
See the full moon
Uh...the full moon...
The song "Full Moon" by No Mercy explores the idea of two people in a relationship who are facing the decision to break up. The singer of the song suggests that they have come to the realization that they can't agree on anything and lying to each other wouldn't help. However, they also recognize that they have shared memories that they own together. The song encourages the idea of not letting fear or lack of faith prevent them from moving on from the relationship. The singer suggests saying goodbye and accepting that when they look up at the full moon, it will be a reminder of what they had and how they were able to be together in one place.
The use of the full moon in the song is symbolic of the finality of their decision to part ways. The moon is often associated with transformative energy and change, which is fitting for the subject matter of the song. Additionally, the imagery of looking up at the moon suggests a distance between them that cannot be overcome. The singer acknowledges that they are looking at the same thing, but they can't find a way to agree or stay together.
Overall, "Full Moon" is a poignant and melancholic song that explores the idea of letting go of a relationship that was once solid but has now become untenable. It encourages a sense of acceptance and reflection on what has been shared.
Line by Line Meaning
See the full moon
We admire the full moon
We look at it's face
We gaze upon the moon's surface
It'll be me looking at you
Our eyes meet when we both see the same full moon
Glad to be in one place
We're happy to be together in the same location
Imagine ourselves alone in the world
If we were the only ones alive on earth
Still couldn't agree on anything
We can't come to a consensus even if we're the only two people left
Lying to each other wouldn't do
Dishonesty in our relationship won't help us
Cause we own each other's memories
Our shared history and experiences bind us together
Spend all our days
We dedicate all our time
If we pack and away ?
If we choose to leave
Our decision is complete
We've made up our minds
Baby, let's say goodbye
We've decided to end our relationship
And you feel where we've gone
You can sense our journey and progress
Let's not spoil the good we have
We shouldn't ruin the positive aspects of our relationship
Lost the fear, lost the faith
We no longer feel afraid or invested in our relationship
We'd be bored to tears
If we were alone, we would be unbearably bored
Uh...the full moon...
