11) VEGA were one of several Andalusian and Spanish bands who flourished in the mid- to late seventies by making music that blended flamenco, folk and jazz at times with English progressive tendencies, often resulting in a colorful and rich fusion sound. Acts like TRIANA, CAI, MEZQUITA and AZAHAR would establish themselves as the preeminent players on these scenes, along with the more contemporary counterparts like LOS CANARIOS and ALAMEDA.
12) VEGA was a German hip-hop duo that released the single Ich chille in 1999.
In this vein VEGA combined Andalusian instrumentation (and sometimes traditional arrangements) with a less well-defined progressive bent, emphasizing instead a heavy flamenco influence and the showcased guitar work of band leader Tómas Vega. Vega had been a member of the earlier Spanish band LOS GRIMMS, and would also, along with bandmate Jorge Pardo, lend his name to a couple DOLORES (Pedro Ruy Blas) records in the same timeframe.
The group released three albums in three years, each accompanied by one single. The first two are heavily imbued with flamenco-driven fusion compositions, while the final release 'Sol de Oscuridad' seemed to be more intended as an attempt at commercial success with vocals and repetitive, less original arrangements. The band was already in its death throes by the time the third album released.
VEGA were a minor player in an ample line of Spanish and Andalusian prog bands of the seventies and eighties. While their contributions don't generally rank among the greatest acts of that segment, they are worthy of recognition and inclusion in these ProgAcrhives.

13) VEGA is a three-piece heavy stoner rock band hailing from the 'VEGA' star. They traveled the interstellar star-ways of the multiverse in their dark matter-fueled VEGA-van, intent on spreading their riff to passing planets. Lights years into their journey they happened upon a planet that caught their attention: this planet was unlike any of the other desolate and in some cases, down right primitive planets they had visited since they started their galactic tour. This planet was Earth and they found it akin to their homeland; such as it was cut from the same great cosmic cake as VEGA. It had majestic mountains, vast oceans, extreme deserts, beautiful flowered plains, and industrialized modern cities. All Earth's inhabitants, from intelligent lifeforms to basic single-celled organisms, were identical to VEGA-ns and lived indistinguishable lifestyles and had similar habits to the people of their home-star. Earth even had music: just like VEGA. VEGA decided to stay on this strangely familiar, yet completely foreign sister-planet and lay down their sweet-star riffs as ambassadors to their beloved VEGA.

Freund sein
Vega Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Schmerz in der Brust, wenn ich schrieb
Wollte raus, aber wusste nicht wie
Doch ich wusste, dass mein Rap sonst stirbt
Und wenn zuhaus' ist
Wo sie mich verstehen muss ich weg von hier
Muss zurück zu den Wiesen und Wald
Wenn ich sprech' bring ich Riesen zum Fall
Aber Freund sein, bedeutet auch Nein zu sagen
Kein Thron ist besetzt, ich bin Chef ohne
Und dieses Volk fordert sechs Kronen
Und ich lauf mit dem Stab in der Hand
Schwarzes Gewand, durch die Straßen im Land
Und ich schlag wenn es knallt
Aufstehen und vorrennen freund sein heißt
Dass man raus geht und Wort hält
Ein ganzes Land ist auf den Beinen wegen uns
Jungs, ich kann's verstehen
Auch wenn über uns der Himmel
In zwei Teile zerbricht
Dennoch weichen wir nicht
Das heißt Freund zu sein
Keine Schläge so hart, dass wir aufgeben
Das heißt Freund zu sein
Das heißt Freund zu sein
Nur der Regen der fällt, Leben ist schnell
Gegen die Welt das heißt Freund zu sein
Das heißt Freund zu sein
Oft kopiert, aber niemals erreicht
Das heißt Freunde von Niemand zu sein
Und alle reden vom Beginn einer neuen Zeit
Und ob ich's auch spür'? Ich
Bin eine neue Zeit
Sagt mir, seht ihr das nicht?
Was für Feuer willst du spitten
Wenn der Regen dich trifft?
Meine Stadt ist keine Gegend für dich
Ob du echt oder nicht bist
Ich seh's im Gesicht
Und auf der Straße kein Blei, das dich rettet
Nichts ist teurer als
Falsche Entscheidungen treffen
Und sei dir sicher, meine Leute vertrauen
Und diese Krone bringen wir heute nachhaus'
So machen wir das bei uns
Noch immer King in der Booth
Will Sorgen im Alk ertränken doch
Sie schwimmen so gut
Mit deiner Scheiße wirst du
Weiterhin nicht fame
Denn Freund zu sein bedeutet auch
Als einziger zu sehen
Ein ganzes Land ist auf den Beinen wegen uns
Jungs, ich kann's verstehen
Auch wenn über uns der Himmel
In zwei Teile zerbricht
Dennoch weichen wir nicht
Das heißt Freund zu sein
Keine Schläge so hart, dass wir aufgeben
Das heißt Freund zu sein
Das heißt Freund zu sein
Nur der Regen der fällt, Leben ist schnell
Gegen die Welt das heißt Freund zu sein
Das heißt Freund zu sein
Oft kopiert, aber niemals erreicht
Das heißt Freunde von Niemand zu sein
