    Blind Guardian is the best band ever!!!!
    The sounds, the lyrics and everything is perfect with BG. They changed my life.

    Hrugnir , I must apologize.
    I didn't see the description. So I went on talking about something that you already had. Ironically humorous. Love this upload, love BG.
    God bless Blind Guardian

    The blood of sirens... on my hands... I can't wash away... I love this song! There's also another bonus: All the King's Horses

    I've looked in wikipedia and looked saw that this song is an alternative, darker version of fly. And you can hear it too, especially in the beginning.

    does anyone esle agree with me that blind guardian, sonata arctica, avantasia, and ayreon have invented a new metal genre..... broadway metal
    i mean all their music has a very theatrical and "play like" feel. Avantasia and aryeon even incorperate many singers, singing as different characters. it's so awsome
    long live blind guardian

    The most impressive thing is that these lyrics were completely freestyle, as Hansi himself said in this Q&A on reddit www.reddit.com/r/Music/comments/2uvpxn/comment/coc7u2e

    I'm amazed it took me so many listens to realize the connection between this and Fly. One day I was listening to this, humming along with it, ythinking it was Fly, when suddenly I was like "wait, that's not how the song goes".

  • @blackmajic13
    @blackmajic13 Před 15 lety

    It's nice to see actual Metal fans comment on a band like this instead of those people who try to start shit. .__. Anyways, didn't even know this song existed 'till just a minute ago. And I call myself a Blind Guardian fan. Dx I like "Fly" and this one in different ways, both good in their own way.

    @SkyeShade yes i know, i just remember a interview before album came out were he said this song was a dark version of fly,so i assumed it be a darker telling of peter pan

    Did you listen to it more than once? It's my favourite Blind Guardian song of all time, and I like every album they've put out, with my favourite album being IFTOS. So no, I'll have to disagree when you say it's a bit "tacked on".

  • @Hrugnir
    @Hrugnir  Před 14 lety

    @dlteodorian Why are you saying "Um Sorry"? That's exactly what I was saying in the other comments. The reason why I mention the Lemean Hydra in my blog entry is to show how clearly it is imagery used to say "The Beast" in the song.

    "The blood of sirens on my hands" Jesus christ, that part of the song is so fucking slow and dark. I bloody love it. "Dead song of Misereeeeeey". COME ON. This just screams badassery from every place possible.

  • @Rowanriver
    @Rowanriver Před 15 lety

    they have epic lyrics. Oh, and it's supposed to be two sides of the same story. "Fly" is the hero's (good) version, "Dead Sound of Misery" is the villain's (evil) version...at least that's what I've been told.

  • @Hrugnir
    @Hrugnir  Před 16 lety

    Wikipedia of "A Twist in the Myth":
    "Dead Sound of Misery" -- 5:18 (Digipak Bonus Track)

    when i first heard this song, I thought it was going to be 'Fly' from the point of view of the pirates of neverland. That would have been cool too, lol! This is ALOT more frightening and reminds me of Wayne Barlow's images of hell.

    And not to mention Sacred is a confirmed BONUS track.
    If that's a bonus track than the CD itself should be great.
    Then again, some times bonus tracks are better than the main album itself. *Cough cough * To create a Warlike Feel -Sonata Arctica's album Unia bonus track *Cough*

  • @KatBlunfroce
    @KatBlunfroce Před 16 lety

    I dunno how many times this must be explained. Fly and Dead Sound of Misery ARE the same song but Blind guardian made Fly from the perspective from a good guy or a hero and they made the song Dead sound of misery to be from an evil perspective. For example if there was a movie that had clips of like...i dunno lord of the rings is a fairly good example...but if two appossing sides were building armies, they could use "Fly" for the good guys and have "DSOM" for the badguys

  • @skullkrusher9
    @skullkrusher9 Před 11 lety

    Sorry, but the music theory snob is coming out of me. Both songs are primarily in minor keys, but the key was just changed in Dead Sound of Misery. The tonic of Fly is Eb for most of the song, while the tonic for Dead Sound Of Misery is Ab. Also, some of the melodies were changed in Dead Sound Of Misery.

    First of All, this is not a bonus track, second, Lucifer's Heritage wasn't going to be BG's band name. It was called Lucifer's Heritage a LONG time ago, then it's name changed to BG, it's not like "it was going to be" and something stopped it from becoming Lucifer's Heritage, plus lots of BG's songs criticize "Catholicism"(" was due to possible mispelling)
