There's a picture out there of the mummy of Ramesses the Great, a.k.a. Ozymandias. The man for whom the words were written, statues built, empires laid to waste.
All that is left of that man, that glory, that pomp and might, is a leathery corpse in a box.
That's too bad that she passed away, she had a really beautiful voice that deserves to be listened.
I still want to know where I can get a copy of this song (or the CD it was in). Legally, of course. I tried to search for the CD but could not find it anywhere, it was always out of stock.
I would like to know more about this song. I'm familiar with the poem, and this song adaptation is really good, both as an adaptation and as a song. I would like to know if I could (legally, of course) get an mp3 of this song anywhere. Also, what is the name of the singer? Are there other songs sung by her? Her voice is really good. Thanks in advance.
very good work. My 10 y.o. son is learning this poem....it's nice to have pictures to bring it into perspective and a song to make memorization easier. Thanks for your work. He really likes the music.
Poets are the hierophants of an un-apprehended inspiration;
the mirrors of the gigantic shadows which futurity casts upon the present;
the words which express what they understand not;
the trumpets which sing to battle, and feel not what they inspire;
the influence which is moved not, but moves.
Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.
- Percy Bysshe Shelley, “A Defense of Poetry”

A lesson in humility, if nothing else.

Impressive... Most impressive.
A wonderful adaptation of a great poem, fitting to the greatness of Ramses II. *thumbs up*
