I was going for how can someone like the really boring self-indulgent Leaves Eyes and not be down with a genuine fun-loving band like Blind Guardian.

Atrocity and Theatre of Tragedy were great in their times, but damn, just because you are married doesn't mean you should start a band together.

She likes Liv's vocals. And I think Andre's lead tone might be what bugs her or something. She's not too crazy about most power metal anyway, though.

Fool just another
Fool just another

I've been waiting
For signs of god
Create - enslave - behaved -
Everything is out of control

Leave me alone
Isolation bears hope
There's something else waiting
A promised destiny
Freezing me
I feel restless and low
These days full of sadness
How joyfully changed
Into fear
My freakshow will start tonight
Don't miss the right time

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

Everything is out of control
Everything is out of control
In my future plans
Everything is out of control
Noone's left to hurt
Everything is out of control
Sorrow's gone away

Broken memories
Walking upstairs
Step by step
I see the whole world burning
The poet dies in Newerland
How it burns

Hey, mother stubborn
I really hate you
If you say yes I will say no
Ashes to ashes
But dust won't be dust
If you go there
I will go back

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
Betrayed by sunrise
Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

Hey, father stubborn
You're ying
And I'm young
I feel alone
Who really cares
Born into ashes
To lose all the games
With a smiling face

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
And the dark dragons rise
Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

So I sit still in my room, today
Winter's here
In summer season
Shall I say
I was wrong
If I'm right
Farewell to my last hope

hooray for derailing threads!

and now to get it back on topic:

There are signs on the ring
which make me feel so down
there's one to enslave all rings
to find them all in time
and drive them into darkness
forever they'll be bound
Three for the Kings
of the elves high in light
nine to the mortal
which cry
[solo: Markus]
[Ref:] Slow down and I sail on the river
Slow down and I walk to the hill
and there's no way out
Mordor
dark land under Sauron's spell
threatened a long time
threatened a long time
Seven rings to the gnomes
in their halls made of stone
into the valley
I feel down
One ring for the dark lord's hand
sitting on his throne
in the land so dark
where I've to go
[solo: Markus]
[Ref:] Slow down and I sail on the river
Slow down and I walk to the hill
Lord of the rings




toggletoggle post by DreamingInExile   at Nov 29,2006 12:50am
ok...

So let me out of it
Out of the cold
To bring back light and hope for all

And so if I could get you in
Just for a little while
Into the songs of sorrow
You might understand

Where am I now
Beyond the dawn
(Where) hope's turned to dust
At all

Immortal love's
Fooled by the hands of doom
That love means death
I realized too soon

[chorus:]
Caught in the afterlife
I've gone too far
When sorrow sang softly and sweet
The air was filled with tears
Full of sadness and grief
When sorrow sang softly and sweet

I feel like screaming
But I can't breath in
Shall I wane right now
I will not leave this
World of living
Till she has said
Goodbye

Out in the cold
I still wait for her call
And her last kiss
It shall be release
I can't forget her
Her face will not leave
From the depths of my soul
I long for her

So I heard all about it
Her voice's so clear
She's woven both themes in there
Moved me to tears
The world shall hear this sad song
Song of sorrow song of grief
Can't change the way of his kind
Can't change the way of her kind

[chorus]

leaves eyes: I was wondering where the electronics/synths were coming from from, but then I saw that the drummer was using an electronic kit. It was cool that I could shoot their whole set, but I was mad about the no flash rule. Anyhow, they put on a really good and tight set. I was really surprised that the guy from atrocity came out (looks like he lost weight too). Honestly, I wasn't expecting that at all. Since I'm a fan of atrocity (and not much for LE), I was happier. He adds a heavier element and ands a lot to the stage presense. They played some songs I knew off the disc(s) I have... Which songs? Look at the set list. It's awesome to see a young crowd like this getting into a band with such old school roots.

I don't know where DIE was, but it's more that 25' away cause I didn't feel any spray.

mourning hall

bright eyes
valhalla
time stands still
punishment
skaids & shadows
this will never end
silence
imaginations
bard song
mirror outro

They played And Then There Was Silence? God damn do I wish I coulda stayed for that.

And the guy from Atrocity does vocals on like half the songs. He IS married to Liv, after all. And basically the whole band short of Liv is/was in Atrocity (And Liv does some vocals with them too)

Yeah, Leave's Eyes were pretty bad. Every song followed the same goddamn structure and their writing isn't very interesting. All in all they seem to just be a much less interesting Nightwish. But, I mean, it was ok for a little even though I don't like it, as I can usually enjoy nearly any band live for a little even if I don't like them, but when they were saying it was their last song for 4 songs in a row, that sucked.

Blind Guardian... wow, I don't know what I can even say. It was amazing finally seeing them live, and the set was amazing. I've never seen an audience so spent only halfway through a show. It was like, halfway through the audience had such a small amount of strength left that the majority of the people were using all their remaining energy just to scream and sing and as far as movement was concerned it was like jello just jiggling back in forth. I don't understand how I could still make noises with my throat at all by the end, 'cause I pretty much lost my voice 2 or 3 times, hahaha. Amazing.

I am also pissed I missed pizza and beer.

However Guardian was killer. The Bard Song sing-a-long wasn't as epic as I'd hoped, though.

I honestly really wasn't getting into Blind Guardian...their new drummer annoys the fuck out of me. And I'm not crazy about their new songs either. I still would've liked And Then There Was Silence, though, just for the sake of hearing the song live, even with the shitty-ass drummer.

blind guardian: wow... First off there were no amps on the stage at all. They just had a white sheet down behind then on which they showed movies. At the set went on, the colors of the movie got better and better. The next wow is the fact that that vocal... the blind guardian's singer ran right out and was in your face. Let me tell you, you could feel his vocie right in front. there were plenty of crowd surfers but they would be almost off the crowd and someone in the front row pulled off so many sneakers. That was pretty awesome. I hope whom ever did that posts here. Hilarious. the crowd surfers didn't seem to find it to be too awesome. When they got down the would just up like "WTF" at the crowd. About 5-ish songs into the set, they played FLY and so many people sang along. Looks liek someone bought the single! eh, that's not fair. The entire place was singing along to every song. I music admit, I only know:
mourning hall
fly
bright eyes
sillence
bard song
requiem
and I sort of knew valhalla.
Oh and when time stands still.
I waited around until bard song was played. but then headed towards the back door as they played it to capture all the lighters. Great show.

the JC session outback was A++.

That could be any cover, they're all similar, and the keyboard player writes a ton of the material, so that could really be any album.
