Um mal wieder auf das eigentlich Thema des Threads zurückzukommen, ich hab mir nämlich gestern mit Hochzeit mein drittes Subwayalbum geholt.
Subway to Sally - Tag der Rache
Wenn einst der Himmel tobend, brüllend, rasend die Städte peitschend und das Meer zerblasend auf Erden wütet ohne Sinn und Segen dann stell ich mich dem Strafgericht entgegen
wenn plötzlich alles, was die Augen sahen zu Staub zerfällt, weil schwarze Reiter nahen wenn Menschenwerke fallen und versinken dann werd ich ihnen schon von weitem winken
dies irae, dies illa solvet saeclum in favilla (Tag der Rache, Tag der Sünden wird das Weltall sich entzünden)
dann stürzt auf uns ein Heer mit grellem Lachen und bläst zur Rache an dem kranken, schwachen und ach so jämmerlichen Erdentreiben zur Reinigung von Menscherbärmlichkeiten
ich werd nicht winseln und um Gnade flehen nicht auf dem Boden kriechen sondern stehen der Richter wird sich feierlich erheben dann zeigt sich was es wert war - dieses Leben
The royal stag stands proudly on the hill, Falling prey to man, his mortal foe Some men know naught of dignity or pride And strike with no respect their deadly blow
Yet still my lonely spirit soars Amid the mountains and the glen From my ancestrial burial ground I am MacIain... The name MacDonald echoes still Within the hearts of Highland men, My restless soul will never sleep I am MacIain...
The East is flanked by Buachaile Etive Mhór, At South the highest Bidian is here Of treachery no warning will they give But from Signal Rock betrayal sounded clear
Yet still my lonely spirit soars Amid the mountains and the glen From my ancestrial burial ground I am MacIain... The name MacDonald echoes still Within the hearts of Highland men, My restless soul will never sleep I am MacIain...
Yet still my lonely spirit soars Amid the mountains and the glen From my ancestral burial ground I am MacIain... The name MacDonald echoes still Within the hearts of Highland men My restless soul will never sleep I am MacIain... My restless soul will never sleep I am MacIain...
In remembrance of Alasdair MacIain MacDonald and his clan who were murdered in the Massacre of Glencoe, 13 February 1692
Wörtlich übersetzt hieße der ganze Satz anders, hierbei handelt es sich aber nicht um eine wortgetreue Übersetzung. Dichterische Freiheit und so, soll sich ja auch reimen.
Weil wir das schon länger nicht mehr hatten und weil ich auf den Song stehe :

SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT
Load up on guns and bring your friends It's fun to lose and to pretend She's overbored and self assured Oh no I know a dirty word
Hello hello hello how low ?
With the light out it's less dangerous Here we are now entertain us I'm too stupid They can't change us Here we are now entertain us A mulatto An albino A mosquito My libido Yay
I'm worse at what I do best And for this gift I feel blessed Our little group has always been And always will until the end
Hello hello hello how low?
With the light out it's less dangerous Here we are now entertain us I'm too stupid They can't change us Here we are now entertain us A mulatto An albino A mosquito My libido Yay
And I forget just why I taste Oh yeah I guess it makes me smile I found it hard it was hard to find Oh well whatever nevermind
Hello hello hello how low?
With the light out it's less dangerous Here we are now entertain us I'm too stupid They can't change us Here we are now entertain us A mulatto An albino A mosquito My libido Yay a denial
So, aus gegebenen Anlaß poste ich auch mal einen Text - im Gedenken an einen großen Musiker. Ich habe ihn aus dem Lied rausgehört, hoffe es ist alles richtig.
JOHNNY CASH: HURT
I hurt myself today to see if I still feel. I focused on the pain the only thing that´s real.
The needle tears a hole the ol´ familiar sting. Try to kill it all away but I remember everything.
Refrain: What have I become, my sweetest friend? Everyone I know goes away, in the end. And you could have it all, my empire of dirt. I will let you down, I will make you hurt.
I wear this crown of thorns, upon my liar´s chair. Full of broken thoughts I can not repair.
Beneath the stains of time the feelings disappear. You are someone else I am still right here.
REFRAIN
If I could start again, a million miles away, I would keep myself, I would find a way.
Wird wohl kaum einer nachprüfen, ob jedes Wort stimmt oder nicht. Außerdem geht es darum ja gar nicht. Wo wir aber schon dabei sind, mache ich auch mal wieder einen...
Nightwish
Crownless
Crownless again shall be the queen Trophy on her grave still remains unseen A boat on the river confessing the sins The Riddler revealing the deep hidden things
Crownless again shall be the king A gull covered in oil with a broken wing A hitcher on a road alone and lost Iron sharpens iron - a truth that once was
Mine is the Earth and the sword in the stone Mine is the throne for the idol One fleeting moment and it is all gone Crownless again Will I fall?
Roaming on razor-sharp castles Ruling all but myself (Now my night is laid to sleep)
One fragrant rose worth ten times what I am A crippled begging a coin braver than I ever was Reflection from me - Devil dressed in white Chasten the being Become what I once was
Mine is the Earth and the sword in the stone Mine is the throne for the idol One fleeting moment and it is all gone Crownless again Will I fall?
Und weil ich es gerade auf Viva Plus gesehen habe und sie am Summer Breeze so genial fand:
Within Temptation Mother Earth
Birds and butterflies Rivers and mountains she creates But you'll never know The next move she'll make You can try But it is useless to ask why Cannot control her She goes her own way
She rules until the end of time She gives and she takes She rules until the end of time She goes her own way
With every breath And all the choices that we make We are only passing through on her way I find my strength Believing that your soul lives on Until the end of time I'll carry it with me
Once you will know my dear You don't have to fear A new beginning always starts at the end Until the end of time She goes her own way
What is it, that we're struggling for? I don't quite see it anymore Life kicks us in the teeth Yet something makes us crawl back for more
Blood and tears upon the altars of our lives we shed Blood and tears until the sweet release we share in death Hours like days, weeks feel like years Decades of Tears Yet somehow...
We'll lose the things we've fighted for Each rise is followed by a fall We'll lose the ones we love, the ones we most adore Yet go on... We go on
Blood and tears upon the altars of our lives we shed Blood and tears until the sweet release we share in death Hours like days, weeks feel like years Decades of Tears Yet somehow everything seems so worthwhile For a moment
What is it that we're waiting for? Looking forward to, preparing for? Life kicks us in the teeth Yet something makes us crawl back for more
Blood and tears upon the altars of our lives we shed Blood and tears until the sweet release we share in death Hours like days, weeks feel like years Decades of Tears Yet somehow everything seems so worthwhile For a moment
The giant's lost And all round him Destructed - for what? They all knew what it meant But they couldn't change it Lord they have gone too far Leave them alone
It's all gone What is left behind On a desert we called earth When the last whale went away Did they ever see the tears?
Don't fear your last step From the theatre of pain And the children will love your singing From the sea The sea is calling Now we've to leave it
The sea was clear On the day I was stranded Answers I'd known To keep this all alive But I can't change it Forever
Now I'm gone And it seems that life had never existed So we left the dark and cold All I left behind are my tears
Don't fear your last step From the theatre of pain And the children will love your singing From the sea The sea is calling I hear them calling
ZitatGepostet von Ray_Dan ey? Power Metal von Nigthwish. Muss gestehen das ich nicht viel von Tarja und co. kenn. Aber Power Metal?
Ich finde, die sind größtenteils schon seeehr powermetalig, auch wenn das mit Frauengesang anders rüberkommt als mit Männergesang - es fehlt so der Kneifzangenfaktor.
