00:02:15 - This song is about the sacrifices we make to achieve our goals.

00:02:35 - Twisted Sister was on the verge of developing and succeeding as a band when D wrote this song, but it was a long struggle to become successful.

00:02:42 - Snyder joined the band in 1976 and they gradually built a following in the New York City area with their live shows.

00:02:53 - His first album, Under the Blade, was released in 1982, followed by You Can't Stop Rock and Roll in 1983.

00:03:05 - It was during the recording of You Can't Stop Rock and Roll that Snyder wrote all the songs on Stay Hungry, including this track.

00:03:18 - Gonna Take It, and I Wanna Rock.

00:03:29 - For Snyder, the price of pursuing her dream of becoming a rock star was high, as it meant spending time away from his family.

00:03:37 - In an interview with Snyder, he explained,

00:03:39 - I had been away from home for four months away from my wife and son, and I couldn't even afford a phone call.

00:03:48 - That's how hungry the band was.

00:03:50 - I wrote, the price, inspired by those feelings at that moment.

00:03:59 - But the letter can be applied to each situation in the life of each particular person.

00:04:04 - We all must pursue a dream with sacrifice in order to achieve the goal.

00:04:12 - It is worth mentioning the great writer Paolo Colo who teaches us that.

00:04:17 - Pursuing a dream has a price.

00:04:19 - It can force us to abandon our habits, it can lead to difficulties, it can lead to disappointment.

00:04:25 - But no matter how expensive it may be, it is never that high.

the price paid by those who dared not pursue him.

00:04:38 - This song was released as the third single from the album Stay Hungry, after, we're not gonna take it, and, I Wanna Rock.

00:04:46 - A song that has all the components of an 80s ballad, hook, melody and song body.

00:04:51 - It did not chart, but the song became a fan favorite in the group's most popular ballad.

00:05:00 - I stay with the teaching that gives us a part of the letter.

00:05:03 - I will try, if I have to fall join me, a hundred times a hundred, no matter the price you have to pay.

00:05:10 - Excellent.

00:05:13 - Dee Snyder tells us.

00:05:16 - The price was written, um, a lot of people don't know how I used to write, but I would write the next album while I was recording the previous album, in other words, rather

00:05:26 - So the play was recorded. I was in the next room writing, you can't stop Rock'n'Roll.

00:05:30 - When you can't stop Rock'n'Roll it was recorded, I was writing Stay Hungry.

00:05:33 - Those first three albums were written before any success was achieved, which is really why they're the best three albums for Twisted, they're the most genuine, the most attitude from the street.

00:05:48 - Any commercialization that came in Stay Hungry came from production, company as far as music wise it came from you know from the gut. The price was written in a bathroom in England when I was recording Can't Stop Rock the Wall and somebody called up and you know I've been away from home for like three months or something like that. In those days you didn't have the money to fly your old lady over or call home every that night you like it was it just a way and I said yeah it's real tough I was telling them I said well that's the price you got to pay. That's a good time for a song. I wrote the price. The funny price story that I was thinking of is...

00:06:49 - How long I've wanted this dream to come true And as it approaches, I can't believe my proof

00:07:17 - I'm trying, oh, I'm trying For life, it ain't so right, I've got to know

00:07:29 - Oh, it's the price we gotta pay And all the games we gotta play

00:07:35 - Thanks for your wonder if it's worth it to carry on

00:07:41 - Cause it's a game we gotta lose Though it's a life we gotta choose

00:07:48 - And the price is all of life until it's done

00:07:55 - Time seems to have frozen But the mind can't be fooled

00:08:08 - As the days pass I discover

00:08:14 - Destiny just can't be ruled

00:08:20 - Hard times, oh, hard times

00:08:25 - For the price, yes surprise

00:08:28 - I'm gonna do

00:08:31 - Always surprise, we gotta pay

00:08:34 - And all the games we gotta play

00:08:43 - Cause it's a game we gotta lose

00:08:46 - Though it's a lie, we gotta choose

00:08:49 - As the price is our own life

00:08:52 - Until it's not

00:09:07 - Oh, it's the price we gotta pay And all the games we gotta play

00:09:57 - Cause it's a game we gotta lose Though it's a life

00:10:02 - We're gonna choose if the price is all the life until it's all gone.
