Songfacts®:

  • The title track to Doro's twelfth album, "Raise Your Fist" is one of her metal anthems. In our interview with Doro, she told us the song's message: "We should all stand together and not take all the bulls--t. Fight the good fight."
  • Doro wrote this song with Andreas Bruhn, who was a guitarist/songwriter in Sisters of Mercy. He co-wrote six other tracks on the album with Doro.
  • This is Doro's favorite song from the album to perform live. "It's so much fun to sing along," she told us. "And usually I ask the people to show me their fists, and 10,000 fists come up in the air."
