1) TNT is a hard rock band… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least 11 artists called TNT.
1) TNT is a hard rock band formed in Trondheim, Norway in 1982, by vocalist and rhythm guitarist Dag Ingebrigtsen , guitarist Ronni Lé Tekrø , bassist Steinar Eikum and drummer Morten "Diesel" Dahl . They released their self-titled debut album the same year — their only album that features Norwegian lyrics — and got a hit with the single "Harley Davidson". In August 1983 Morty Black replaced Steinar Eikum on bass, and the following year American vocalist Tony Harnell became TNT's new frontman, making his debut on their album Knights of the New Thunder with the temporary stage name Tony Hansen. That line-up recorded one more album, Tell No Tales in 1987, before "Diesel" Dahl decided to quit one year later, after some turbulent times within the band. Tell No Tales - as co-written by Dahl - produced TNT's biggest hit, the single "10,000 Lovers (In One)".
Kenneth Odiin became TNT's new drummer, but recorded only one album with the band, Intuition in 1989, before he left. His replacement was John Macaluso, who played on the albums "Realized Fantasies" and "Three Nights in Tokyo" (both released in 1992). The same year they decided to take a break, choosing to focus on various solo projects. In 1996 the compilation "Till Next Time" was released, and Tony Harnell, Ronni Le Tekrø and Morty Black reformed TNT with drummer Frode Hansen. That line-up recorded two albums, Firefly in 1997 and Transistor in 1999.
In 2000 Morten Diesel Dahl came back to TNT, 12 years after he left. The band started working on their new album "My Religion", which was released in 2004. Months after the album release, Morty Black decided to quit, and Sid Ringsby took his place for the following concerts.
TNT's new studio album, All The Way To The Sun was released in the fall of 2005. A single, "Sometimes" was released on July 25th, but was only available in Norway. The same year Victor Borge replaced Sid Ringsby as their live bassist.
Tony Harnell left the band in April 2006 for both personal and professional reasons, although he is collaborating with iMagic Films and producer Darren Paltrowitz on a live DVD featuring his performance with the band in Madrid, Spain from April 1, 2006. The DVD is intended to be released in Japan in August 2006 and elsewhere in the world in September 2006.
TNT are still alive and kickin' - and are proud to introduce the new man behind the mic: Singer Tony Mills from Birmingham, England. Tony Mills is one of Europe's most respected hard rock singers, mostly known for his work with UK Melodic Rock act Shy and his solo artiste releases of recent years. Tony has worked along side such names as Cinderella, Dokken, Cozy Powell, Meatloaf, The Sweet and many more and will add a new and exciting dimension to TNT as the band enter a new era. It is an unbelievable coincidence that Mills' band Shy were already booked to support TNT at the Polar Festival on June 30 in Storsteinnes, Norway before Harnell's departure. This concert for TNT will be fronted by the ex-vocalist Tony Harnell as a farewell show for him.

A Fix
TNT Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got dreams that I can't lose
Don't you force me now to choose
Cause I will
Turpentine will never cleanse me
Black tar stains have made me
Well the sand I've walked on
And I love it still
Chorus:
But I need a thing or two
White light against the blue
Words that I know are true
I need a fix of you
I got rocks under my bed
Sleep is something that I dread
Sometimes I have to get wasted
To shut down
Chorus:
But I need a thing or two
White light against the blue
Words that I know are true
I need a fix - a fix of you
The lyrics of TNT's song "A Fix" centers around the theme of addiction, specifically the addiction to a person. The opening lines, "I got stones down in my shoes, I got dreams that I can't lose," paints a picture of a person weighed down by their desires and aspirations. The following line, "Don't you force me now to choose cause I will," is a statement of defiance towards those who may try to come between the person and the object of their addiction.
The next line, "Turpentine will never cleanse me," is a reference to the idea of using turpentine as a solvent to remove dirt or stains, but in this context, it means that no amount of purification or cleaning can rid the person of their addiction. The line "Black tar stains have made me" refers to a physical manifestation of a drug addiction where black tar heroin can leave track marks on the user's skin.
The last two lines, "Well, the sand I've walked on claimed me, and I love it still" speaks to the idea that the person is enamored with their addiction and the familiar places and experiences that come with it. The chorus, "But I need a thing or two, white light against the blue, words that I know are true, I need a fix of you," reveals the object of the person's addiction - a specific individual.
The second verse continues the theme of struggle with addiction, with the line "I got rocks under my bed, sleep is something that I dread." This is a metaphor for the feeling of being burdened and preoccupied by addiction in a way that intrudes on other aspects of life. And "Sometimes I have to get wasted to shut down" confirms the idea that the person needs to numb their pain or distract their thoughts with substance abuse.
Overall, "A Fix" is a powerful song that delves into the complexities of addiction and the all-consuming nature of love and desire for another person.

I got stones down in my shoes
I have issues that follow me everywhere I go
I got dreams that I can't lose
I have aspirations that are too important to let go of
Don't you force me now to choose
I won't compromise and make a difficult decision
Cause I will
I will stand my ground
Turpentine will never cleanse me
I'm too deeply flawed to be healed by an easy fix
Black tar stains have made me
I'm marked by my past experiences
Well the sand I've walked on claimed me
My life and the places I've been have helped shape who I am
And I love it still
Despite the hardships and struggles, I wouldn't change a thing
I got rocks under my bed
I have unresolved issues that haunt me
Sleep is something that I dread
I struggle with insomnia due to my problems
Sometimes I have to get wasted to shut down
I turn to alcohol as a means of escape from my troubles
But I need a thing or two
I'm searching for something to help me cope
White light against the blue
I need a guiding light to help me through dark times
Words that I know are true
I need honest and genuine advice
I need a fix - a fix of you
I need your help and support to get me through this
