Wake Up Dead
"Wake Up Dead" is a 1986 song by American heavy metal band Megadeth. It is a single released from their second album, Peace Sells... but Who's Buying?, and additionally the first single ever launched by the band. Along with the title track, "Peace Sells", this song is a live staple at almost every Megadeth show. It starts with a drum intro, guitar chords and descending bass intro and then more sustained chords, followed by Dave Mustaine's singing. The song is not an instrumental, it has lyrics and an extended bridge before the outro lyrics and is about Mustaine fearing revenge from his girlfriend after he cheats on her. It describes him sneaking into his bedroom trying not to wake her up, because she will kill him while he is sleeping. This was also the song that Megadeth played when guitarist Marty Friedman was auditioning for the band. The music video for this song features the band playing at a rock concert enclosed in a cage. As the video progresses, the fans go crazy and begin to jump around and climb the metal cage. American melodic death metal band World Under Blood recorded a cover version for their debut album Tactical. Vocalist and guitarist Deron Miller said "Our cover of 'Wake Up Dead', one of my favorite songs ever, is gonna scare the **** out of Dave Mustaine." (wiki)
