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.

First Touch Lyrics

Uriah Heep

I dreamed of all
The wonders in the world
And lovers that I knew
I saw so many good things
At one time
Mountains of emotion
Coming right into view
When I arose from my bed
I got that warm glow
At the back of my head
First touch, feel the power
Hear the thunder over me
First touch, out of nowhere
See the future over me
Then I dreamed about
The tenderness we shared
And how it makes us feel
Like every first encounter
That we have
When I think I must be dreamin
You tell me that its real
And here you are in my bed
I get that warm glow
At the back of my head
