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.

My Religion
TNT Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm never letting it go
This is my truth, this is my way
There's no better drug, I need it every day
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, like a virus
Running through my veins
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, it's never gonna change, baby
I'm sinned, I'm burned, tarnished and stained
Not an angel but I feel no regret or shame (yeah)
I bleed my words, I drain my voice
But when you love me, I don't have any choice (yeah)
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, like a virus
Running through my veins
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, like a fire
Burning down my pain
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, it's never gonna change, baby
This is my religion
My religion… yeah
This ain't no game, this ain't no lie
I'm gonna live it every minute till the day I die
I don't care much for those who doubt
I'm not living for them, that's not what it's about
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, like a virus
Running through my veins
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, like a fire
Burning down my pain
Hey, hey, hey, yeah c'mon, c'mon
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, it's never gonna change, baby
This is my religion
My religion, my religion
My religion, my religion
The lyrics of TNT's song "My Religion" speak to the deep connection that music can create in someone's life. The first two lines of the chorus, "This is my life, all that I know, it's who I am, I'm never letting it go" suggest that the singer sees music as his primary identity and passion. He goes on to describe it as "my truth" and "my way," indicating that it is both his personal belief system and way of navigating the world.
The song also references a sense of addictiveness to music, portraying it as a "virus" and "drug" that the singer needs "every day." Despite any negative consequences or pain that may come along with this passion ("I'm sinned, I'm burned, tarnished and stained"), the singer implies that he has no choice but to continue pursuing it.
Ultimately, the lyrics of "My Religion" suggest that music is more than simply a hobby or form of entertainment - it is a deeply ingrained part of the singer's identity and way of life. By describing it as his "religion," he emphasizes that it serves a similar purpose to a traditional faith, providing guidance, comfort, and meaning in his life.

FYI, those time stamps you have in the description are actually track lengths. Youtube automatically links them to the corresponding position in the video. So, when you click them, they take you back to that specific location in the video, instead of to the actual track locations.
