Blood, toil, tears, and sweat Blood, toil, tears, and sweat The phrase "blood, toil, tears and sweat" became famous in a speech given by Winston Churchill to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom on 13 May 1940. This was Churchill's first speech on 13 May 1940 to the House of Commons after having been offered the King's commission the previous Friday, to become Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in the first year of World War II. Churchill had replaced Neville Chamberlain on 10 May, and in this speech he asked the House to declare its confidence in his Government.
Love Like Blood (band) Love Like Blood (band) Love Like Blood was a German gothic rock/gothic metal band. The band's name comes from the song of the same name by post-punk band Killing Joke. Its nucleus consists of the Eysel brothers Yorck (vocals, lyrics) and Gunnar (bass). The band was active from 1989–2001 and is now on (indefinite) hiatus. Its early sound reminisces the style of the Fields of the Nephilim. They made their breakthrough with the 1992 album "An Irony of Fate", which marked the debut of English guitarist Mark Wheeler. This album showcased a transition to a more hard rock-influenced style. In
