Legends Never Die - Age of Warlords - Blackmores night- Locked Within The Crystal Ball

Here in the spotlight this moment is ours
No one can stop us, we're one with the stars
I feel the waves begin to rise
far across the ocean deep within your eyes.
Silently watching as they fall
I can see the future locked within the crystal ball..
Strike up the lightening, hear my call
Feel the light electric dancing through the air
Here by the ancient castle wall
Can you see the future locked within the crystal ball..
Here in the Spotlight This Moment is ours,
No one can stop us we're one with The Stars..
Quiet by nature, standing tall
cold stone circles, they have seen it all
Caught like a ghost from yesterday, shadows down the hall
Are locked within the crystal ball...
Fire, water, earth and sky
Mysteries surround us, legends never die!!
They live for one moment, lost in time, I can hear them call
they're locked within the crystal ball...
I feel the waves begin to rise
far across the ocean deep within your eyes
silently watching as they fall
I can see the future locked within the crystal ball...

It is diversity that makes all humans special

when cultures mix and share ideas Advances in art, science and thought take place

[matmohair1]

According to F. Donald Logan (The Vikings in History, cit. Montgomery, p. 24), "in 839, the Rus' were Swedes. In 1043, the Rus' were Slavs." The Scandinavians were completely absorbed and, unlike their brethren in England and in Normandy, they left little cultural heritage in Eastern Europe.

The Varangian were the byzantine armies special guards and shock troops

They were first made up of Norsemen but were later supplemented with Russians, Saxons, Irish and even franks

Medieval Arab and Persian travelers do not use the word Slav which is a mistranslation

But they used the word Saqaliba which referred to eastern Europeans in general

Hello thanks for the comments

First of all I know that the Swedes where Germanic and the Russians where Slavs

If you study both early Norse and early Rus history you will discover that they both shared a similar warrior culture and that many Viking armies did include Russians as well

Some Russians where also allies of King Harald Hardrada

@matmohair1 - We did not have the same worrior culture, tell me one source who support youre claim. We became the Slavs rulers and as In Normandy Russia got its name.

@matmohair1

at 0:30, it states "against the Connacht raiders, Saga of Tain Bo Cuailgne" who's Saga of Tain Bo Cuailgne? i tried reseraching for him but nothing, and whats his background since he can't be Kelt since he is raiding but perhaps he is Scythian for we (Eranians) call the Scythians - Saga/Sag-ha since the Saga spoke an Eranic language, it is most likely what they called themselves since "Scythian" is Helenified version of the oiriginal Eranic name

@matmohair1 What is the song is that Celtic Women band?

[CaroltheBarbarian]

Galla Placida is a familiar name. Did she end up being executed herelf?

[joonte1010]

The Rus were ruled by Swedish Vikings (Rurik,Oleg e.t.c) And the Swedes remained there as overlords for a long time, Later they adopted the Slavic Mythology and language and the Viking era in the East was over.
