Haha this song is not religious at all, just like all Metal opera songs. They're about opening your eyes and see the world by yourself, not other's words and dictations...sorry to disappoint you :)
I'm continually amazed by people's ability to bring uninformed, retarded arguments about religion (on both sides) into practically any video on youtube. I get that there's a religious motif to this song, but like, it has a very specific theme, which no one is ever talking about.
@Makkabee82 It very much has to do with Jesus and angels, since the plot of the story revolves around the catholic church and christian faith. If you actually tried understanding, not only the lyrics of this song, but also all the other Metal Opera songs, you'd find out that each and every one of them is an act in a play.
You think the author of the Chronicles of Narnia believes in talking lions and magical closets? It is fiction, regardless of 'spiritual matters'.
It's funny. I only discovered Avantasia a few months ago. I'm always nervous clicking on a new song, afraid I won't like it, and ruining the perfect record they have going so far (I have liked everything I've heard). And it always turns out to great anyway.
@Elusareth emmmm, no offense, but you don't have to like or dislike everything, if you don't like it, you don't have to click the 'tumbs down' thing and ruin it's perfect record :D
@Gavchavyeo Wait, what? The only videos I've ever disliked are really juvenile 'home videos,' or blatant spamming/trolling videos. I don't ever dislike music or movie clips. If I don't like the band, I just avoid the video, and if I don't like the particular song, I just go find another.
I'm not really sure what brought that up though. I didn't say anything about a perfect record with the dislike button. I just meant a perfect record of me liking EVERY Avantasia song I've listened to so far.
Well, I have to say that I like the guitar work of the first two albums better than the guitar work of the latest Avantasia albums (The Scarecrow Trilogy") Paeth sucks :X
This has been one of my favourite songs of all time for about 5 years. I highly recommend Fairyland - Score To A New Beginning if you can't get enough of songs like this.
@semanray shit yeah that'd be awesome! and im pretty sure hansi has been a guest singer for an edguy album (one of the earlier ones) so its definitely possible
err... you know... it's a sarcastic quote from scriptures...-_-'... as a mockery, not as in applause. Finish it: ''...in revelation, soul castigation, Fire will burn us away''...
i noticed that people told you to fuck off on one of dream theaters songs. i think it was panic attack. well im telling you the same thing: NO ONE HAS HEARD OF DEATH DESTROYER!!!!
Holy shit what the fuck is this?..Oh i know is epic..is power...its DAMN REAL MUSIC!!!!!! it makes your balls fall off from all the thrill you experience hearing this fuckin song!!!
Damn it, Tobias sounds like a crow, compared to the king, as "he`s not the one, if he only knew..." 2:07 - At this time, I literally jumped from my seat, screaming "That`s Kiske, I bet my golden ring, I`d recognize this voice ANYWHERE!!!"
from 2:48 to 3:25 damn dude i hear that part and all i wanna do is grab my bass and call my band and do a fucking song there which that intensity and power
