[SuicidalSweetheart77]

The first time I heard this song, I took my copy of the Complete Works of Poe, went to my nana's grave, and read the whole night. So peaceful...

I had to find a song to well represent Edgar Allen Poe in my history class and I'm using this song :D

*Adds to list of favorite Voltaire songs* I've been a fan for a while can't belive it took me so long to hear this song.

[Kyuuketsuki8Neko]

i think it's so awsome that he sings about Edgar Allan Poe, I really love Poe, and to hear it back in such an awsome song,, love it <3

more artists should remember, or sing about Poe ^^

Actually there are a few. I have a few videos of Sopor Aeternus who since quite a few of Poe's poems, such as Dreamland, The Sleeper, and Conqueror Worm (all three of which is on my youtube). Also Omnia does a version of The Raven (also on my youtube). Check them out if you like!

I sang this song while reading edgar allen poe in a the cemetery where my family is buried. So surreal... yet calming. I love the raw insane side of Voltaire, but his songs like this.... they hit it home for me.

In fact if u say u are atheist like me people think u are satanic -_-

Thank you, everyone, for the comments. It is always great to get feedback!

I really don't think it is necessary to have 'Music' written during the instrumental, because the whole song is music. Also, this song follows a typical 'Verse chorus' song form and is relatively predictable in regards to when the vocals will and will not be singing, so overall it's rather superfluous and ambiguous.

@TheScreamingCarrot

I use to do this to all my videos (In my more recent ones, I'm not sure if I have done it or not). It is basically just a way to fill the screen as the music plays. Sorry you don't like it.

You did a very good job at this! The picture is perfect for the song and adds more feeling to it as well!

Beautiful video ♥!

Aha, never heard before of a band named after our philosopher. Nevertheless it's a great song !

Voltaire is...well he should really be his own genre. He's great to listen to (if you have a sense of humor, though he has his serious songs as well). Thanks for listening. I should be putting up more Poe based songs later when I have time. I know there are a few more Sopor songs by Poe. I also want to do the Jabberwocky by Omnia, etc...It is simply finding the time to make them all.
