jagwil Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 How about this one. Lord of the Ages by Magna Carta. (1973) Lord of the Ages rode one night,Out through the gateways of timeAstride a great charger, in a cloak of white samiteHe flew on the air like a stormDark was the nightFor he had gathered the stars in his hand to light a path through the skyWhilst the hooves of his charger struck comets of fireBewitching all eyes that beheld them Lord of the AgesNobody knowsWhither he goesNobody knows Below a dark forest, in caves of black graniteThe children of darkness dwelled in oblivionBetraying one another in endless confusionFor the Lord of the darkHad bewitched them From time's first creationThe wise men and prophetsAnd all workers of magic had warned of the reckoningThe wind and the fireAnd the plague of destructionThat follows the paths of evil Far above the wide oceans and thundering riversThrough the sun and the rain and the turn of the seasonsRode the God of all knowingWhilst all about him, celestial companionsFriends from the void before time was wovenHonoured his crown with words of white fireAnd carried his robes of light Whither he goesNobody knows But in the peace of a valley a young child was bornFilling the night with his cryingAnd an old man gave thanks to the Lord of the AgesWhose battle is not with innocenceBut the birds of the air were silentKnowing the time had comeWhen time was forgottenThe waters were stilledAnd the mountains stood emptyFor the cities were deafLong, long ago 'Enough' cried a voiceAnd the earth was awakenedPoor and the rich felt the plague and the fireDeath and destruction rode out togetherTurning the world to a funeral pyre It was the Lord of the AgesGathering in the harvestThe Lord of the AgesGathering in the harvest And from the blood and the thunderOf men and their dyingHis eyes dark with sorrowThe Lord of the Ages gathered in his harvest But to the old and the helplessThe weak and the humbleTo the children of LightHis words of compassion breathed on them gentlyDissolving the darkness across the great valleyThat rumbled with fireAnd from the death and destructionThe Lord of the Ages carried the fruit of the harvestTo freedom Lord of the AgesNobody knowsWhither he goesNobody knowsjagwil2009-05-22 00:56:28
Joe Low Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 How about this one. Lord of the Ages by Magna Carta. (1973) Lord of the Ages rode one night' date='Out through the gateways of time...............Blah blah blah blah[/quote'] Ok it's a little bit iconic but very long and not as cute as mine and Nance's, and it's not even '80s at all. Oh well, what do you expect from the Grammarnator.

Wyatt Earp Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 What can I say. I am fortunate enough to have a 700 odd vinyl record collection and I spent the morning listening to a Jethro Tull album called Krest of a Knave and one of my all time favourite Tull tracks is Budapest.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPAJoxJyCxM
pastapouch Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 a song that I usually can't stop listening to once starting playing itUriah Heep Lady in Black She came to me one morning One lonely sunday morning Her long hair flowing In the midwinter wind I know not how she found me For in darkness I was walking And destruction lay around me From a fight I could not win Ah ah ah ... She asked me name my foe then I said the need within some men To fight and kill their brothers Without thought of love or god And I begged her give me horses To trample down my enemies So eager was my passion To devour this waste of life Ah ah ah ... But she wouldn?t think of battle that Reduces men to animals So easy to begin And yet impossible to end For she?s the mother of our men Who counselled me so wisely then I feared to walk alone again And asked if she would stay Ah ah ah ... Oh lady lend your hand outright And let me rest here at your side Have faith and trust In peace she said And filled my heart with life There is no strength in numbers Have no such misconception But when you need me Be assured I won?t be far away Ah ah ah ... Thus having spoke she turned away And though I found no words to say I stood and watched until I saw Her black coat disappear My labour is no easier But now I know I?m not alone I find new heart each time I think upon that windy day And if one day she comes to you Drink deeply from her words so wise Take courage from her As your prize And say hello from me Ah ah ah ...
