Uriah Heep is a British rock band, officially formed in 1969 in England, when record producer Gerry Bron invited keyboardist Ken Hensley (previously a member of The Gods and Toe Fat) to join Spice, a band signed to his own Bronze Records label. Sometimes jokingly referred to as "The Beach Boys of heavy metal" for their melodic songs, and trademark multi-part harmony backing vocals, although their music draws on diverse influences including psychedelia, gothic sound, progressive rock, hard rock, early heavy metal, jazz, and even country on occasion. Uriah Heep remains active today with its lineup since 1986. An album featuring new material will be released sometime in 2007.

Uriah Heep

Celebrate, celebrate
Dance to the music ...

Slippin' away, sittin' on a pillow
Waitin' for night to fall
Girl in a dream, sittin' on a pillow
This is the night
We're going to the celebrity ball

Satin and lace, isn't it a pity
Didn't find time to call
Ready or not
Gonna make it to the city
This is the night
We're going to the celebrity ball

Dress up tonight, why be lonely
You'll stay at home
And you'll be alone
So why be lonely

Celebrate, celebrate
Dance to the music ...

Sittin' alone, sittin' on a pillow
Waitin' to climb the wall
Maybe tonight
Wherever your dream goes
Woman alive
We're going to the celebrity ball

Dress up tonight, why be lonely
You'll stay at home
And you'll be alone
So why be lonely

Celebrate, celebrate
Dance to the music ...
