Nightmare es una banda de heavy metal originaria de Grenoble, Francia. Formada en 1979, la agrupación ha dejado una huella imborrable en la escena del metal internacional. Su trayectoria se caracteriza por una mezcla de talento innegable, perseverancia y una constante evolución musical.
El grupo fue fundado por los hermanos Nicolas y Joe Amore junto con Yves Campion y Jean-Marie Boix. Desde sus inicios, Nightmare mostró una inclinación hacia un sonido pesado y oscuro, influenciado por bandas como Iron Maiden y Black Sabbath. Su primer álbum, Waiting for the Twilight, lanzado en 1984, los estableció como una banda prometedora en la escena del metal francés.
El debut discográfico fue bien recibido por la crítica especializada y les permitió ganarse una base de seguidores fieles. Aquellos primeros años fueron cruciales, marcando conciertos y pequeñas giras que ayudaron a consolidar su reputación.
El camino no fue siempre fácil para Nightmare. Durante los años 90, enfrentaron múltiples desafíos, incluyendo cambios en la formación y dificultades contractuales. Después del lanzamiento de su segundo álbum, Power of the Universe, en 1985, la banda se tomó un largo receso que duró casi una década.
Esa pausa resultó ser una etapa de reflexión y renovación. Yves Campion, como miembro fundador y constante fuerte del grupo, trabajó incansablemente para mantener viva la esencia de la banda. Fue en este periodo que comenzó a gestarse el regreso de Nightmare, revitalizado y con nuevos bríos.
En 1999, Nightmare regresó con una formación renovada y un sonido

Kidnap The Sandy Claws Song Lyrics
Kidnap The Sandy Claws by Nightmare [LOCK, SHOCK & BARREL]
Kidnap Mr. Sandy Claws...
[LOCK]
I wanna do it!
[BARREL]
Let's draw straws!
[SHOCK]
Jack said we should work together
Three of a kind
[LOCK, SHOCK & BARREL]
Birds of a feather
Now and forever
Wheeee
La, la, la, la, la
Kidnap the Sandy Claws, lock him up real tight
Throw away the key and then
Turn off all the lights
[SHOCK]
First, we're going to set some bait
Inside a nasty trap and wait
When he comes a-sniffing we will
Snap the trap and close the gate
[LOCK]
Wait! I've got a better plan
To catch this big red lobster man
Let's pop him in a boiling pot
And when he's done we'll butter him up
[LOCK, SHOCK & BARREL]
Kidnap the Sandy Claws
Throw him in a box
Bury him for ninety years
Then see if he talks
[SHOCK]
Then Mr. Oogie Boogie man
Can take the whole thing over then
He'll be so pleased, I do declare
That he will cook him rare
[LOCK, SHOCK & BARREL]
Wheeee!
[OOGIE BOOGIE] Oooooohooo! Yum,yum,yum,yum
[LOCK]
I say that we take a cannon
Aim it at his door and then
Knock three times and when he answers
Sandy Claws will be no more
[SHOCK]
You're so stupid, think now
If we blow him up into smithereens
We may lose some pieces
And the Jack will beat us black and green
[LOCK, SHOCK & BARREL]
Kidnap the Sandy Claws
Tie him in a bag
Throw him in the ocean
Then see if he is sad
[LOCK & SHOCK]
Because Mr. Oogie Boogie is the meanest guy around
If I were on his Boogie list, I'd get out of town
[BARREL]
He'll be so pleased by our success
That he'll reward us too, I'll bet
[LOCK, SHOCK & BARREL]
Perhaps he'll make his special brew
Of snake and spider stew
Mmmmmm!
We're his little henchmen
And we take our job with pride
We do our best to please him
And stay on his good side
[SHOCK]
I wish my cohorts weren't so dumb
[BARREL]
I'm not the dumb one
[LOCK]
You're no fun
[SHOCK]
Shut up!
[LOCK
Make me
[SHOCK]
I've got something, listen now
This one is real good, you'll see
We'll send a present to his door
Upon there'll be a note to read
Now, in the box we'll wait and hide
[LOCK, SHOCK & BARREL]
Until his curiousity
Entices him to look inside
And then we'll have him
One, two, three
[LOCK, SHOCK & BARREL]
Kidnap the Sandy Claws, beat him with a stick
Lock him for ninety years, see what makes him tick
Kidnap the Sandy Claws, chop him into bits
Mr. Oogie Boogie is sure to get his kicks
Kidnap the Sandy Claws, see what we will see
Lock him in a cage and then throw away the key!!!
Ha,ha,ha,ha!
[OOGIE BOOGIE] Sandy Claws.....
