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.

TNT Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Night
Just like a moving target in a street fight
Break down these barricades let the gates
Begin to fall
Gotta stop take a look live every moment
Or lose it all
Shine on, shine on
No border will come between us
Forever
We are strong together
On wings of freedom let the change
Begin to inspire
We are the new survivours in the crossfire
Don't need arrogance in the streets and
In the sky
Stop take a look ceal with the moment
Or live a lie
Forever
Shine on, shine on
No border will come between us
Forever
We are strong together
Ah can't you see we're getting strong
Shine on forever
(solo)
Stop take a look ceal with the moment
Or live a lie
Forever
Shine on, shine on
No border will come between us
Forever
We are strong together
Forever
Shine on, shine on
No border will come between us
Forever
We are strong together
Shine on, shine on, shine on

The opening line implies that we are constantly on the run and are in a constant battle, much like a moving target in a street fight. However, we are encouraged to break down barricades and let the gates fall to embrace life to the fullest. The chorus repeats the phrase "shine on" as a call to never give up and to stay strong. The lyrics also emphasize that no barrier or border can come between us if we are united, making us a force to be reckoned with.
The second verse reiterates the theme of living in the moment and facing it with clarity. The lyrics suggest that we are the new survivors in the crossfire and do not need arrogance in the streets or in the sky. The words imply that unity and not pride will make us strong. The bridge of the song references the "wings of freedom" and suggests that by letting the change inspire us we can move forward and stay strong.
Overall, the lyrics of the song Forever Shine On are encouraging and uplifting, calling on us to take charge of our lives and stay strong through unity and support.

Ronni is such an underrated player. He's heavy yet full of melody and Harmony.

Recuerdo que la 1ra y única vez que oí de este grandioso grupo fue cuando mis primos llegaron a Perú desde los EEUU por los finales de los 80's y trajeron con ellos unos cassttes llenos de música de grupos que jamás escuchásemos aquí en mi ciudad natal, cuando derrepente sonó esta canción😦 y me dige WHAT'S GOING ON!!!, y fue que desde ese momento amaría hasta el día de hoy esta canción y al grupo TNT con varias otras canciones, TONIGHT I'M FALLING FOR YOU..., for example!!!. VIVA EL HEAVY METAL EN TODO EL.MUNDO!!!🤟❤
@patricksheppard585
Seriously......how can a band be any better......WORLD CLASS MUSIC here people....this is great ROCK........at it's finest......Tony and Ronni......simply THE BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!
@michellemondragon2400
TNT didn't go completely unnoticed by Americans, however they were only really well known among the music community because they were so good. It's really a shame they were definitely one of the best bands from that time!
@theaterdreamer
I was in college when Intuition was released. I'd only been listening to TNT since a little after Tell No Tales came out. These guys were absolutely revered amongst my friends, almost all of whom were musicians.
People with good taste in hard rock/metal know their songs. I still play TNT like crazy to this day. Still can't play half of Ronni's stuff, but I'll keep trying until I drop, haha.
@jfo3000
Harnell just kills it every single time. The greatest vocalist.
@J1Z06
I was 13 when I heard "Knights Of The New Thunder" and was simply blown away by it! Every album after that simply rocks! I saw Tony and His band last Thursday at a local brewery and was floored! The Guy is 60 and still has it!! He could school Dickinson and Halford!! TNT simply rocks!
@djrossetto3992
Best Heavy Rock album EVER!!!!
@SuperBenblake
Tony Harnell is an amazing vocalist and his writing partnership with Ronni led to a lot of great songs and great albums. I personally think, now this an opinion, Europeans or Euro/American bands piss all over today's crap!
@theaterdreamer
If I didn’t see your user name, Benjamin, I could totally look at this post from five years ago, and think I wrote it. My thoughts exactly. Tony and Ronni made some killer stuff.
I’m an American, living in Texas. With a few exceptions, most of the rock and metal I listen to now comes from Europe. I’m big into symphonic metal acts like Nightwish, Epica. They’re sonically much more interesting to me than this shit coming from American rock bands. The musicianship here seems to have taken a nosedive where rock and metal are concerned.
I still love Dream Theater, Fates Warning...still listen to my Savatage, Kamelot. But they’re the exceptions, unfortunately.
