Ahoi Metalheads!
The sound of the Full Metal Cruise is not only played by the bands, but there‘s also the official Full Metal Cruise anthem Hard on the wind. It was written by Avantasia guitar player Sascha Paeth, who will also play on board with Eric Martin and hold a guitar workshop.
What‘s even cooler: The anthem will be played on board at the arrival at Hamburg harbor at the 11th of May by the Full Metal Cruise All-Stars. So every landlubber will know that we are coming home.

Here are the lyrics, too, so you can learn them by heart:
Hard On The Wind
We're living in our world of plenty
and sail the seven seas
we came together here
to celebrate the steel
as we see the mainland's fading
we're ready for the go
and as our temper's rising
we're heading for the show
the ground is shaking - the ship is quaking
we feel the energy
nothing can ever take away
what we witness to see
come on let's face it
this could go on forever
hard on the wind
we're living a dream
we're breaking the boundaries of what we believed
a call for the wild, a journey of dreams
we're the kings of the world for a while
and like the wind keeps singing
the same old song again
each day's a new beginning
as the memory remains
like steel can carry us away
across the ocean wide
metal makes our souls fly high
and let's our minds unite
come on let's face it
this should go on forever
hard on the wind
we're living a dream
we're breaking the boundaries of what we believed
a call for the wild, a journey of dreams
we're the kings of the world for a while
hard on the wind
a fire ahead
together we live
these moments so unbelievable
and when our time here's over
we'll look back with grace
yearning for another marvel
ready for another pace
and each time from now on
when the cold wind beats my skin
I will be reminded of
the beauty of that din
come on let's face it
this could go on forever
hard on the wind
we're living a dream
we're breaking the boundaries of what we believed
a call for the wild, a journey of dreams
we're the kings of the world - kings of the world
hard on the wind
we're living a dream
we're breaking the boundaries of what we believed
a call for the wild, a journey of dreams
we're the kings of the world
We're living in our world of plenty
and sail the seven seas
we came together here
to celebrate the steel
