about

As a closer to the album, I decided not to go for a song by a typical artist, but an obscure theme song from an old TV series which I feel was kind of underrated. When I was a boy, M.A.S.K. was one of my favourite TV shows. It was one of those 80s animated series that came out alongside the likes of Transformers and G.I. Joe, but never got made into a movie.

Now granted, I look at the series and I don't think the plots, voice acting or humour is anything innovative, but the music and sound effects are by far some of the best I've ever heard. And bearing in mind it was composed by Shuki Levy who also composed great music for animated shows like He-Man & The Masters of the Universe, Inspector Gadget and the X-Men animated series, the quality's of no surprise to me. But when I listened to a spectacular cover by a man online by the name of Charley Corbiaux (which even earned personal praise from the original singer Larry Leon), that made me want to cover the main theme even more. If only I didn't struggle so much vocally...

lyrics

Masked crusaders working overtime
Fighting crime, fighting crime
Secret raiders who will neutralise
As soon as they arrive (at the site)

Trakker's gonna lead the mission
And Spectrum's got such super vision

M-M-M-M.A.S.K.
Is the mighty power that can save the day
M-M-M-M.A.S.K.
No one knows what lies behind the masquerade
M-M-M-M.A.S.K.
Always riding hot on V.E.N.O.M.'s trail
Come see the laser rays
Fly away

Vicious V.E.N.O.M. organising crime
Masterminds, masterminds
Illusion is the ultimate weapon
M.A.S.K. can use it right
Every time, any time

Trakker's gonna lead the mission
And Spectrum's got such super vision

M-M-M-M.A.S.K.
Is the mighty power that can save the day
M-M-M-M.A.S.K.
No one knows what lies behind the masquerade
M-M-M-M.A.S.K.
Always riding hot on V.E.N.O.M.'s trail
Come see the laser rays
Fly away

M-M-M-M.A.S.K.
Always riding hot on V.E.N.O.M.'s trail
Come see the laser rays
Fly away

Overtime fighting crime, fighting crime
Illusion is the ultimate weapon
M.A.S.K. can use it right
Every time, fighting crime
