La historia de Nazareth, una de las bandas más icónicas del rock, comenzó en Dunfermline, Escocia, en 1968. El grupo se formó con la unión de talentosos músicos locales: Dan McCafferty (voz), Manny Charlton (guitarra), Pete Agnew (bajo) y Darrell Sweet (batería). Estos músicos ya tenían experiencia previa en otras bandas locales, y su amor por el rock y la determinación de compartir su música los unió.
El primer álbum de Nazareth, titulado simplemente Nazareth, salió a la luz en 1971. Aunque no tuvo un gran éxito comercial, sentó las bases de lo que vendría. Con su segundo álbum, Exercises (1972), la banda comenzó a pulir su sonido y a ganar seguidores leales. Fue un preludio a la explosión que estaba por venir.
En 1973, Nazareth lanzó Razamanaz, producido por Roger Glover de Deep Purple. Este álbum marcó un punto de inflexión en la carrera del grupo. Canciones como "Broken Down Angel" y "Bad Bad Boy" se convirtieron en clásicos y ayudaron a la banda a consolidarse en la escena internacional del rock. Razamanaz fue un éxito rotundo y llevó a Nazareth a una gira mundial.
Look at you
You're the son of the neighborhood strays
You can walk in your prison for days
But you'll never get anywhere
It's a pain
But the shine on the edge of your blade
Couldn't give all the waiting away
You were recognized everywhere
Turn away
You are not just ashamed of yourself
You're a part of the scenery,damned to hell
Can't you see
We are not going to play at your games
We are not going to ask you for names
Or for some of your history
Did you know
That your father said it's all wrong
Just to keep it going along
It's a part of our mystery
It's our job, you see
You'll agree
There is no point in letting you go
We can wait till the end of the show
Till the audience fades away
Turn around
You can laugh at the mess in your room
It's a nightmare that never can end for you
Can't you see
We are not going to play at your games
We are not going to ask you for names
Or for part of your history
Did you know
That your father said it's all wrong
Just to keep it going along
It's a part of our mystery
It's our job you see
You'll agree
There is no point in letting you go
We can wait till the end of the show
Till the audience fades away
Turn around
You can laugh at the mess in your room
It's a nightmare that never can end for you
Can't you see
We are not going to play at your games
We are not going to ask you for names
Or for part of your history
Did you know
That your father said it's all wrong
Just to keep it going along
It's a part of our mystery
