Początkowy, lecz już wyraźnie ukształtowany heavy metal, można zaobserwować w muzyce grup Led Zeppelin i Black Sabbath. Jeśli chodzi o korzenie, to jedni upatrują prototypu utworu heavymetalowego w piosence The Beatles "Helter-Skelter" (z Białego Albumu) lub The Kinks "You Really Got Me", inni zaś za pierwsze utwory protoheavymetalowe uznają przeboje grupy The Dave Clark Five, szczególnie "Any Way You Want It" i "Glad All Over" z 1964 roku. Zresztą nurt zapoczątkowany przez The Dave Clark Five nazywa się heavy drum albo heavy bass, od ciężkiego, hałaśliwego i agresywnego brzmienia.

O.A.R . (Of A Revolution) - Hold On True
"Back in the day..."
Oh, it wasn't that far.
Not a day goes by that won't be in the back tomorrow.
Take today as a sample to you.
It looks cloudy outside,
What are you gonna do?
Well, we could get up.
Or we could get on down.
We could drive to the country or head downtown,
Maybe I'll join you too.

We could have been so much better off than before.
If we held on true.

Take today, and go walk for a while.
Well just sit back Jack and relax and enjoy a smile.
Well let your mind go...
For a minute or two,
Let your mind levitate for a delicate few.
Maybe I'll join you too.

We could have been so much better off than before.
If we held on true.

I said but lately I've been feeling mighty old.
I said the Sun has got me cracked this wind has got me cold.
And I'm so damn tired of losing my friends.
Every single time I go and lose my ends.
I say but that's okay, I'm on my way.
I don't appear near, but maybe I'll end up that way.
And in awhile when I realize there's something new.
But until then I got to hold on true... appartamenti in affitto Plotka lotto chybił trafił nieruchomości Suwałki drzwi szczecin
