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 Harnell, Lé Tekrø and 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 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.

As Far as the Eye Can See
TNT (NOR) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Out of the clouds you came and
Froze my heart
Running alone
I never thought of changing
But now i can't forget you
The days are lost without you
And i'm searchin'...
As far as the eye can see
Is much too far for you to be
As long as you're lyin' here
That's all i need to know
I was afraid
You were a gamble in my lonely world
(fear was easy)
I know you'll be here in the end
I'll keep searchin'...
As far as the eye can see
Is much too far for you to be
As long as you're lyin' here
That's all i need to know
I'm dreaming of long summer nights
I'm searchin'
If your eyes could see
What you mean to me
Oh , when you're lying here
That's all i need to know
As far as the eye can see
Is much too far for you to be
As long as you're lyin' here
That's all i need to know
The lyrics in TNT's song "As Far as the Eye Can See" speak to a love that was unexpected, but now consumes the singer's thoughts. The first verse explains how this love "froze" the singer's heart, indicating that they were not initially receptive to it. However, over time, the singer has come to realize how much they need this love, with the lyrics "I never thought of changing / But now I can't forget you / The days are lost without you." The chorus emphasizes that the singer's love interest doesn't need to be far away for it to be overwhelming - "As far as the eye can see / Is much too far for you to be / As long as you're lyin' here / That's all I need to know." The second verse describes how the singer was initially scared to pursue this love, but is now assured that it will be worth it in the end. The lyrics "I'll keep searchin'..." suggest that the singer is still looking for something, possibly the courage to fully commit to this love. The song ends with the singer's declaration that as long as their love interest is with them, they don't need anything else.
Overall, the lyrics express a deep and consuming love that was unexpected but has become integral to the singer's life. The theme of searching is present throughout, as the singer is searching for the courage to fully embrace this love and for a deeper understanding of what this love means to them. The chorus emphasizes the overwhelming nature of this love, with the singer feeling like their love interest is all they need despite the vastness of the world around them.

Summer of rain
A time of immense sorrow and depression.
Out of the clouds you came and
You appeared in my life suddenly and unexpectedly.
Froze my heart
You left me feeling cold and devoid of emotions.
Running alone
Living life without purpose or direction.
I never thought of changing
I was content with the way I was living before you came along.
But now i can't forget you
You've left an indelible mark on me and I can't shake you from my thoughts.
The days are lost without you
Life is meaningless and hollow without you in it.
I'm dreaming of long summer nights
I long for a time of happiness and warmth.
And i'm searchin'...
I'm constantly seeking a way to be with you again.
As far as the eye can see
A limitless distance that I cannot fathom.
Is much too far for you to be
You may be out of reach, but I refuse to give up on us.
As long as you're lyin' here
As long as we're together, everything is alright.
That's all i need to know
Nothing else matters as long as we are together.
I was afraid
I was scared you would break my heart.
You were a gamble in my lonely world
You represented a risk to my isolated existence.
(fear was easy)
It was easy to be afraid and to think the worst of our situation.
I know you'll be here in the end
I have faith that we will overcome any obstacle and end up together.
If your eyes could see
If you only knew how much you mean to me.
What you mean to me
You mean everything to me.
Oh , when you're lying here
When we're together, nothing else matters.
That's all i need to know
Our love is all that truly matters.

Why can't the music of today be as good as this
Vendetta Knight
It's only getting worse, too
AHMED RAMZY
Great song from times gone by. Great years. The 80s were the best years for me.
LightofGod9
Underrated band. Ronnis' technique and Tony's vocal range (that's what happens when both your parents are soprano opera singers) brought technical and songwriting legitimacy to TNT. These guys never got the recognition they deserved.
soni damara
All metalhead know tnt band....
Emer Garcia Vocal Coaching
Totally agree, here in my country only a few knows about this great band.
James Rapp
One of the best hair bands ever...great vocals...great musicians.....awesome
Michael Park
Love this song and the memories it brings I play the whole album regularly.
GnR190
My favorite song of the "Tell no Tales" album, TNT is such an awesome band!
Godziller
As long as we get more bands like this to just take the world by storm again it would be alot better for me
