Biography

Mr. Mister was an American pop rock band active in 1982–1990. Prior to Mr. Mister, both lead vocalist Richard Page and keyboardist Steve George were in the band [a=Pages (2)]. The [url=https://www.discogs.com/master/261712-Mr-Mister-I-Wear-The-Face]debut album[/url] of the band was released in 1984. Their second album [Link] (1985) features the band's biggest hits "Broken Wings" and "Kyrie", both of which peaked at number one on US pop chart. After the release of the third album [Link], which was not as big of a commercial success as its predecessor, guitarist Steve Farris left the band. In 1990, the fourth studio album was recorded and completed, but the label decided not to release it; Mr. Mister disbanded shortly thereafter. After 20 years, the final album, titled [Link], was released by Page's own label in 2010. On May 16, 2023, all four members of Mr. Mister performed "Broken Wings" together at Page's 70th birthday party. This was their first performance together in 35 years. Lineup: Richard Page – lead vocals, bass Steve George – keyboards, vocals Pat Mastelotto – drums Steve Farris – guitar (1982–1988)

LYRICS

Last night I had a desperate dream, I was standing in the winter rain
Footsteps close behind me, somebody called out my name, ohhh
No magic mirrors can erase, these lines of living on my face
Lessons learned and last, ohhh, ohhh
Take this life - into my own hands, make this world - into my own land
Take this life - I'll take my stand, take this world - into my own hands
Take this life - into my own hands, I'll take my stand

I was walking in the summer sun, thinking that my life had just begun
How wrong could I be, ohhh, ohhh

Take this life - into my own hands, make this world - into my own land
Take this life - I'll take my stand, take this world - in my own hands
Take this life - into my own hands, take this world - I'll take my stand
Take this life - into my own hands, take this world - I'll take my stand

Take this life - into my own hands, make this world - into my own land
Take this life - I'll take my stand, take this world - in my own hands
Take this life - into my own hands, take this world - into my own hands
Take this life - I'll take my stand, take this world - into my own hands

Into my own hands, into my own land, I'll take my stand, into my own hands
