Turn on annotations for lyrics! Or see below...

Got woken in the night,
by a mystic golden light.
My head soaked in river water.
I had been dressed in a coat of armor. They called a horse out of the woodland.
"Take her there, through the desert shores."
They sang to me, "This is yours to wear. You're the chosen one, there's no turning back now."

The smell of redwood giants.
The banquet for the shadows.
Horse and I, we're dancers in the dark.
Came upon the headdress.
It was gilded, dark and golden.
The children sang.
I was so afraid I took it to my head and prayed.
They sang to me, "This is yours to wear. You're the chosen one, there's no turning back."
They sang to me, "This is yours to wear. You're the chosen one, there's no turning back."

There is no turning back.
There is no turn.
There is no turning back.
There is no turn.
There is no turning back.
There is no turn

This song makes me think of a sweaty barbarian riding through a foggy forest of skinny, high trees, battling through a horde of robots that wield tridents.

The Cardigans haven't released anything in many years which kinda proves my point. Can you name a single swedish act that have relesead anything at least the past 5 years or so, without using google?

Adele is from the UK.

I could say the same. The reason I replied is cause you said the UK had the best music when we all know it's a total lie. Your reply totally provoked me. I had to reply.
