The March of the Swordmaster - Rhapsody (Of Fire)

[NebaNow]

What is wrong with this song??? It's just too damn epic.

[WheresYourSuit]

This may sound stupid but which lore/stories these guys sing about?

[Kariakas]

@WheresYourSuit Pretty sure Luca Turilli has created his own Dungeons and Dragoons style fantasy world and all the stories in it. Not sure if he based it on anything other then his own imagination.

[mikkouhl]

this is fuckin awesome.

[KentaroDragonBreath]

tourdion...

[bittrFULL]

its pretty hard to get any of their albums in finland... and ive listened all songs in mixed order so i realyy dont know who the swordmaster is... Dargor, maybe?

[irimawen]

@bittrFULL Kron. =;)

[bittrFULL]

@irimawen its says that kron is evil and thgen theyre hailing him... does that make sense?

[irimawen]

@bittrFULL My bad, sorry. Kron is the warmaster, although said swordmaster should be "reborn from the blood of his God, the warmaster Kron." I mixed it all up. *blushes*

[Steinmetal4]

I'd fucking love to do a black metal version of this song. Keep the clean vocal chorus for the.. er.. chorus but add some really deep voices or something. The verses would be all growl. Maybe I just want to hear Abbath sing, "Ride! Die! Sacrifice!"

[lilith287]

aaaaa es lo mejor del mundo

[WenGlen2]

la melodia principale è ispirata da una ballata medioevale (lo ha detto turilli).

quindi non alla canzone di branduardi che tra l'altro stimo tantissimo e così anche i rhapsody

[blackfiremagic99]

@WenGlen2 il tema principale è tourdion,una stupenda ballata medievale...questo tema è stato ripreso da decine di artisti,mi viene in mente blackmore con i blackmore's night e soprattutto la riproduzione dei corvux corax,eccezionale

[Lich137]

I doubt anyone really cares what genre it is.

Long live Rhapsody :D!

[x080395]

This was the first Rhapsody song I've heard. And I still love it :)

Ride! Die! Sacrifice!

[Dalkia777]

Awesome Song!! 

[BigBossReixen]

9 people didn't march to hunt the darklord. :)

[TheMarvelGeek]

Nice a metal remixe of the song "tourdion"

[JaggedHart]

Wow... Just wow.

[MentalWyro]

Do you have a free mp3 link I could have for this song, or no?

[DurasDrum]

@MentalWyro Nope. Either find it yourself, or buy the album. I'm just here to share my favourite music, not give out free songs.

Sorry.

[MentalWyro]

@DurasDrum Fair enough. I digg.

[Waldimart]

@MentalWyro What about buying the CD on Amazon?

[kidkaos113]

It is symphonic metal but more correctly its folk-metal :)

[DurasDrum]

@kidkaos113 I don't think Rhapsody is considered folk metal, to be honest.

[kiksaybebe231]

@DurasDrum that's true... But this song has folk elements.... I'm not saying that Rhapsody is folk.... just this song :D Greetings!

[wolfbane135]

@kidkaos113 Only this song.

[melindoro]

@kidkaos113 folk metal ? LOL

[prinsenavislandet1]

@kidkaos113 oh no you are so wrong. symphonic metal: yes! folk-metal: no!

[woolcladlad001]

@kidkaos113 Fuck you, dumbass! They're not folk-metal, you're just too folk to understand what symphonic metal is.

[SventheCrusader]

@woolcladlad001 Way to be classy to someone who was misinformed. The Internet is such a polite place.

[SventheCrusader]

@woolcladlad001 Wow, and you even think you can tell me how to behave on an entity with total anonymity! Seems you're about twice as misinformed as the guy you were attacking, buddy. Oh, and pro tip from someone evidently far wiser than you, just because someone is misinformed about a simple genre doesn't mean they dislike the music or should, as you so intelligently put it, "go listen to some country shit." Maybe you could try, you know, politeness next time. It might make you more friends.

[radip]

the lyrics are wrong in several places

[daedra83]

RIDE! DIE! SACRIFICE!

This is what I scream when I'm about to come when having sex with my wife!

[AndreDj112]

@daedra83 hahahahahaha

[hardcoreoma]

RIDE ! DIE ! SACRIFCE !!!!!!!

[Betenkurt]

they are gods!

[FruitOfHavoc]

magari se vi leggete i commenti precedenti, potete scoprire che branduardi è solo stato il primo a plagiare Tourdion del francese Zoltán,composta durante il rinascimento. per scriverci una canzonetta che c'entra pure poco con lo spirito originale del componimento. per quanto mi piaccia branduardi, i plagi son ben altri. (che so, ligabue che copia chiunque e punta pure in alto rubando intere canzoni a ramones, gunsNroses, rem).

[Aryanor86]

This is the original one.. auhauhauhahu "Angelo Branduardi - Donna ti voglio cantare"

[MWaser]

No

[Aryanor86]

@MWaser Yes

[bloodyscyther]

plagiata brutalmente da "donna ti voglio cantare" di branduardi...lol

[AbyssinianLife]

beatuftil song no??

[IamAnHeroHa]

The guy on the left looks like Dio!

[KodiakDipper92]

yeessss luca turelli is so beast!

[SimoneKojiroRemia89]

Donna ti voglio cantare di Angelo Branduardi, sentitela e dite cosa ne pensate ^^

cmq grandissimi rhapsody!!! tra i migliori gruppi di sempre !!!

[armeckthefirst]

my favorite draonland song is their manowar cover "power of thy sword". i like the faster songs like this better than the slow ones.

[pacco78]

the original version of this song is a renaissance song called Tourdion. you can search "Renaissance music - Tourdion by Arany Zoltán" on youtube!

rhapsody rocks!

[ZAK31591]

This is the best band in existence! Long live Rhapsody of Fire!

[XMacaonX]

Increible... Me encatan todas sus canciones y su historia. Larga vida a Rhapsody!!

[MrForien]

Into the ray of the sun,

March our hero hunting the Darklord... <3

[australia007queen]

stupenda!magnificent!

[bebelina]

garras de amor?

[ivonne184]

q cancion tan vacana la mejor del mundo viva rhasody y hp para los demas

[jjthe11]

Rhapsody Rules.

[vicbennu]

explendida canción poderosa

[fleshhammer5]

ive talked to patrick guers. no fucking joke. on myspace lol. it was only a couple replys long. but its cool as fuck that we talked. our conversation was actually about why rockstars dont reply to myspace messages from fans and shit lol, it was quite ironic lol

[JacksonHugh]

SACK THE FRIES!

XD

[Bazza37]

YES

[jjthe11]

the first guy on the left of the screen

Is that ronnie james dio

[DurasDrum]

Nope. That's Patrice Guers.

Look him up,he's an AMAZING bass player.

[jjthe11]

he does look like ronnie james dio though

but ill look him up

[DurasDrum]

Yeah, I've noticed haha.

[Critdizzle]

No. It is a known fact that Dio cannot appear in the smae picture or record as RoF, because the resulting epiness would cause the universe to implode.

[naoaceitanenhumnome]

he looks like dio, but he is the Rhapsody's bassist... and he is taller than Dio, and younger too xD

[n0wacK]

I gotta say, although i should be hating on this like any person in their rite mind would, i actually really like luca turilli and rhapsody. Fucking epic if u ask me if u dont like them u just gotta do more acid :)

INTO THE RAY OF THE SUN< MARCH OUR HERO HUNTING THE DARKLORDFIGHT FOR THE FALL OF HIS POWER< FIGHTING THE STORM THE ROAR OF THE THUNDER< ALLY OF THE SUN AND THE MOON< GREAT SWORDMASTER RULE!!!

[DurasDrum]

Why would would call a person hating this "on the right mind"?

You sould like you're talking about a taboo subject or something. It's only symphonic metal, dude.

[sinfoniazul]

I want that hair.

[DruidAssasin]

the bold or the others.

:D xaxaxaxa

[sinfoniazul]

Hahahaha. The others

[GermanDulcimer]

Takes a while to grow....I know what I am talking about :P

[methosSohtem]

this song sounds like tourdion - corvus corax but metal version = win

[MrThefoxtoyou]

dude in the middle of the pic look's like frodo

[metal123498]

dont you dare speak of him that hes a genius!!

[DurasDrum]

Jesus, chill out, he didn't insult him or anything.

[DurasDrum]

Thanks a lot, I bet I'll think of Frodo whenever I see Luca's face from now on. :/

[GodofGlam92]

RIDE! DIE! SACRIFICE!!!

[meusisto]

@GodofGlam92

What's the meaning of it?

[ThePablo198]

Great song!

[jummaaja]

and I ask the wind for the fall of the King! part of lyrics is wrong. make it right =)

[DurasDrum]

Oh wow. Good job pointing out my "mistake" and not even bother to correct it. How the hell do you want me to "make it right =)" otherwise?

I've searched. All lyric sites give me the same thing.

If you're going to make a claim, the least you could do is back it up.

[jummaaja]

they sing "Air, the wind for the fall of the King!"

Just keep listening to it and you spot it too.

[DracoTheFirst]

If you listen realy exakt, you can hear that he sings "And i" like at the same time. That is to say in a way like it sounds he skip or say somthing else, but not.

[spineshivers]

I don't understand why bands don't release on the back of their cds or on their sites the lyrics of the songs that are on that cd. It's a decent solution to this.

[metal123498]

they do, at least in the booklets of the 2 cd's i have (legendary tales and symphony of enchanted lands II: the dark secret)

[HonorThroughTheBlade]

This song makes me want to do epicly epic things of epicly epic proportions, like headbang while wearing my epicly epic Rhapsody of Fire shirt and listening to all the epicly epic Rhapsody CDs that I own. Which would include all their studio albums. Sounds like a good day to me.

[fluuuuuuuuffy]

Here's an EPIC

Hahahaha :-)))

For you!!

[baumblatt11]

thats epic xD

[HonorThroughTheBlade]

Nay, it is EPICLY EPIC.

[metalpsips]

WHAT AN EPICLY EPIC COMMENT FROM AN EPICLY EPIC FAN LIKE MEEE!!!im wearing a Rhapsody shirt now

[rothyn88]

i think this song is great... =)

[rothyn88]

what!? O.o they don´t sound nearly the same...

[Sbanfi22]

This isn't the rhapsody's song... they copy by Angelo Branduardi : Donna Ti Voglio Cantare

[metal123498]

thats called a cover and its pretty common in the music business so i dont see the problem as long it is a fucking great song

[DurasDrum]

Lol'd at "they copy".

Thanks for the laugh.

[hail6and6kill]

no...this is a medieval theme

[ChrisC2I]

Angelo Branduardi added different lyrics to a song named Tourdion by Pierre Attaignant.

You can look that up, there are tons of versions on Youtube.

[keiterbug]

Freaking Epic!.. great song

[theFFVIguy]

Great swordmaster rule!

[alexandera5a]

ride die sacrifice

[CottoComeUnFegatello]

O trogloditi!!! questa è Donna ti voglio cantare di Branduardi!!

RIDICOLI!!!

ps Turilli puzzi

[pratolli]

Prima di tutto è l'incotrario,poi sei TU ridicolo. Ma ora basta con sto flame,ti reporto come spam e fine (sei n00b)

[LordDarthViadro]

HAIL! HAIL!

Brave Rhapsody!

MARCH! MARCH!

Great Rhapsody!

[Draedrian]

Epic is the Test

Epic is the words

Epic is the BAND!

[MichealCobra]

This song is really good, and even better it broke my writers block.

[DurasDrum]

Right on, excellent. I hate writer's block.

[jjthe11]

RHAPSODY RULE'S

[MIKandLUH]

RHAPSODY GRANDI!

[eljuakko]

powerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr oooooooooooo is fuckin amazinggggggggggggggggggg

[falco4eva]

R H A P S O D Y

[AzumangaDiohFan4Eva]

@falco4eva FTW!

[dominusetdeus060644]

i love this band and this song :D

[machimetalthor]

VIVA PERON CARAJO!

[BurstflaKk]

EPIC!

[virtus941]

I usually hear Fabio in high tone ^_^ but his tone in this song is nice too :D ROF FOREVER!!!

[theFFVIguy]

The Warrior of Ice is a true hero.

[MajorStardust]

lol, they copy "Donna ti voglio cantare" from Angelo Branduardi

[warmsteel]

Love this

[DurasDrum]

Good for you.

[Ultima228]

I can't believe i've forgoten just how epic RoF can be sometimes, what would be awsome is if they did a cover of Dream Evil's the Chosen Ones, or maybe HammerFall's Blood Bound i can't belive that they have done only 1 cover, but they are epic, and probably the only metal band with a forum about themselves too!

[metal123498]

they actually did 2 covers. this 1 and power of thy sword ;)

ROF 4 EVA!!!

[Ultima228]

Im pretty shure this is an original isn't it? As far as i know it is...... then again maybe i'll ask on the site.... if i get around to it

[DurasDrum]

Really? I'm pretty sure many metal bands have their own official forums. O.o

[Ultima228]

Nope, only RoF does, the other bands i listen to have a website but not a forum, im not shure about Metallica cause there kinda big too

[DurasDrum]

That's odd.

Though, I only know Rhapsody's forum and HIM's forum.

[Darthwannabe]

I know :D I love reading the lyrics, getting to right near the end and i notice theres still 2 minutes left! meaning SOLOS and other cool great shit!

[metalheart1979]

This is just more than awesome song. Could it qualify to Top10 of metal genre ever? Probably. :) I know, I know... To many to set Top10. But if I had to listen to 10 songs only 4ever, and could choose them - than one would be there 4 sure. 10+ out of 10 and thx 4 lyrics.

[username1p]

who wrote this annoying song?

[DurasDrum]

The Gods.

You have horrible taste in music.

[Ultima228]

Clearly your deaf, OR you simply cannot deal with this style of metal, if you don't like it don't show up here and whine about how its crap, because its not and it will just get me to yell at you

[Blackbeast123]

Now this is music. Come to sweden Rhapsody !

[ONNIHOLTTA]

awesome <3

[tethgar]

IM with DurasDrum People need to be nicer.

[Watchyou12]

Durasdrum, when Iisten to rhapsody, I only search clips from you, because youre the only one putting LYRICS. You rule! thanks:)

[DurasDrum]

Thank you!

[t1sk1jukka]

omg this is absolutely great

[BurstflaKk]

cant stop singing it loll..soo epic

[bajsibyxan900]

to framax80 OMG who the hell cares?!!

[DurasDrum]

What a friendly comment.

Enjoy your block, you pompous asshole.

[framax80]

it's the only italian group that i love :D and i'm italian :P

[theFFVIguy]

I really want Staropoli's hair.

[DurasDrum]

I know, right? It's fucking sexy.

[generosos87]

hey FFVIguy heres a thought, on the topic of final fantasy i seriously think square should get copyright on the story of the emerald sword saga from rhapsody for a new ff game or soemthing else ykno. i love that story and would love to see it in an rpg it would be fucking epic as hell

[xxwarcryxxx]

grande rhapsody

[Alexander71229]

Esta canción es basada en "Tourdion(Quand je bois du vin clairet)" compuesta por "Pierre Attaingnant" en 1530.

[Ultima228]

Dunno if this is a cover or not but this is STILL one of my all time favorite songs by them, its just simply KICK ASS

[LucaTurilli89]

DurasDrum nice uploading of Rhapsody. I wanted to upload all of it too but maybe I was Too Late ;).

[Scorp89pl]

play minstrel play.. :)

great cover !

[000Six]

This is a cover?

[Scorp89pl]

yes, it base on traditional folk song, which plays blackmore's night :)

[000Six]

Oh cool, did not know that. Thanks.

[theFFVIguy]

Is Blackmore's Night the folk song this is based on?

[Scorp89pl]

Blackmore's Night play song "Play minstrel play" I think (but I'm not sure) that this is song composed several centuries ago (they play that kind of songs in their arrangement).

But Rhapsody play it completly differently. In their own fantastic way :)

I hate covers that are playin in the same way.

Covers should sounds like this. Diferently :)

[princeitalyIT]

La canzone più bella che io abbia mai sentito.

princeitaly96

[capirex1987]

ahah mò non esageriamo. è bellissima però sisi

[theFFVIguy]

This is just about the coolest band ever.

[scatmanscott]

...wow...

[kurgens]

excellent way to mix renaissace and metal

[nightfireivey]

Yep. Rhapsody is awesome!

[Ethaninja]

Aw man I gotta go to my local music shop and get this cd. I love this band.

[Ultima228]

One of my all time favorites from Rhapsody of Fire, its pure kick ass and always epic

[Gatamorgana]

they were still Rhapsody when this album came out.

[Kevlord22]

The swordmaster really rulez :D

[charlieRicketts]

beautiful. absolutely beautiful.

[Thelegend528]

fucking amazig!

[Zeth3X]

Rhapsody for life!

[Ultima228]

Oh its good to be back, Rhapsody of Fire FTW!!!

Great song one of my favs

[warmsteel]
