1. A band from Hanover, Germany.
2. An experimental artist from Detroit, Michigan.
3. A hardcore band from New Hampshire.
4. An alias of Robert Fleming, a multi-instrumentalist based in Los Angeles, California.
5. A band from Minneapolis.
6. An inactive solo project of Oliver Francis, a rapper-producer based in Columbia, Missouri.
1. Victory was formed in Hanover, Germany in 1984 from the remnants of the band Fargo. Apart from bass player Peter Knorn, there were two guitarists, Tommy Newton and John Lockton, as well as drummer Bernie Van of Graaf forming the group. After they originally worked with singer Pedro Schemm - after a small interlude with the later Thunderhead shouter Ted Pullit - the singer Charlie Huhn joined, who had formerly played with Gary Moore and Ted Nugent. By recommendation of Scorpions guitarist Rudolph Schenker the band was guided by David Krebs' (of Scorpions and Aerosmith fame ) management.
2. Victory’s music is a fusion between Soul music and Folk Music. She was raised in Detroit before moving to New Jersey at age twelve. Whether Victory is performing classics or original compositions, she has a way of tailoring each song with her voice and guitar to fit her unique style. Some people say that Victory is in the lane of Tracy Chapman, Roberta Flack, and Nina Simone. But beyond those three, Victory brings an entirely new youthful element to the music world, an indescribable spiritual depth mixed with her youthful interpretation of sound influencing her artistic expressions. Moreover, Victory colors a lot of her musical arrangements with rich jazz chords as she is rooted and grounded in Jazz tradition.
3. Victory is a hardcore band from southern New Hampshire. They were formed in 2005 and played together for two years. They recorded a demo of 2 songs with most notable song being "breaker". They got a big fan base following and played shows in the boston area as well as the local new hampshire venues. They later went onto record a 5 song ep. Right after being recorded the band broke up.
4. Victory is the music project of Los Angeles-based multi-instrumentalist Robert Fleming who produces new songs that are at once fresh, familiar and focused. ‘Demonstrations’ was the first offering from Victory, a 7-song EP self-released in September 2011 and his first full length is set to see the light in April 23rd, 2013. Victory crafts a sound that is both a throw-back to psychedelic 60′s British rock as well as an homage to today’s thriving independent music scene.
5. Victory hail from Minneapolis and are formed from ex-members of Eightysixed, Pist & Broke, Subversives and The Virgin Whores. The collective experience of the members fit together well and gives off a chemistry that reflects in the tightness of Victory’s sound. Victory delivers straight up American Oi! like a steel toe to the face. Victory’s hard edged sound is fueled by lyrics based on the experiences of afghan war veteran and front man Dan and the bands struggles with being working class in a crumbling economy. Very promising debut EP ''Laced Up'' contains four juicy street punk tracks and there’s no dead weight.
6. Victory is the now-inactive alias of Missouri-based rapper-producer Oliver Francis. Though self-described as a 'band,' it was a solo project in reality. Under the moniker, he released one full-length project titled 'I Don't Want This Anymore', before moving on to other musical endeavors.
Seen The Light
Victory Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a fantasy
You came to me
But I couldn't see
You wear a disguise
The ice maiden hides
You turned my head
Just one look
Not a word was said
I couldn't believe
How you made me feel
Walking the highwire
Wild nights of thunder
Drowning in passion
That you don't feel at all
You plan was set
You laid your bet
If it's what you want
Then it's what you get
You play with such ease
A sparkle and tease
You're beautiful
And you know it too
A Venus trap
I fell for you
A magnetic pull
So easy to fall
Walking the highwire
Wild nights of thunder
Drowning in passion
That you don't feel at all
Now I've seen the light
Gonna run for my life
Seen the waves come crashing in
The current sucks me down
Danger signs and warning bells are ringing
See the light
Now I'm gonna run for my life
You played your game
A steady aim
And that was me
I can't break free
You feeding the flame
With each breath you take
My heart is weak
My vision blurred
You captured me
The torture hurts
This love's a disease
And I need release
Walking the highwire
Wild nights of thunder
Drowning in passion
That you don't feel at all
Now I've seen the light
Gonna run for my life
Seen the waves come crashing in
The current sucks me down
Danger signs and warning bells are ringing
See the light
Now I'm gonna run for my life
Walking the highwire
Wild nights of thunder
Drowning in passion
That you don't feel at all
Now I've seen the light
Gonna run for my life
Seen the waves come crashing in
The current sucks me down
Danger signs and warning bells are ringing
See the light
Now I'm gonna run for my life
The lyrics of Victory's song "Seen The Light" tell a story of a person who falls in love with someone who initially seemed perfect in every way. The song compares the rush of falling in love to ecstasy in a fantasy. However, as the relationship unfolds, the singer realizes that their lover was deceptive and hiding behind an ice maiden facade. The lyrics describe the singer's realization that their love is not returned and that they have been ensnared in a trap.
The lyrics illustrate the emotional turmoil of the singer as they realize that they are drowning in a passion that is not being reciprocated. The imagery in the song is powerful, with references to being caught in a high-wire act and waves crashing in. The singer ultimately decides to walk away from the toxic relationship, realizing that they need to "run for their life" and escape the danger they are in.
Overall, the song is a moving portrayal of the pain of falling in love and then discovering that the feelings are not mutual. It is a reminder that sometimes we need to walk away from relationships that are not healthy and that may be causing us more pain than joy.
Line by Line Meaning
Like ecstacy
It felt amazing, like the highest form of pleasure
In a fantasy
It felt like a dream, not real life
You came to me
You entered my life in some way
But I couldn't see
I was blind to your true intentions
You wear a disguise
You are not showing your true self
The ice maiden hides
You are cold and distant on the surface
You turned my head
You caught my attention
On the day we met
From the moment we first encountered each other
Just one look
All it took was a simple glance
Not a word was said
No conversation occurred between us
I couldn't believe
It was hard to grasp or accept what was happening

Walking the highwire
Living dangerously, taking risks
