One of the best and funniest songs I've ever heard. This is the real version but it still sounds the same as in the movie "This is Spinal Tap". If you saw that movie, you might have realized that this song was played live and they didn't play the song wholly so this is the full and real version of one of the greatests songs I've ever heard.

Here are the lyrics:

In ancient times,
Hundreds of years before the dawn of history.
There lived a strange race of people...the Druids.
No one knows who they were, or...what they were doing...
But their legacy remains...
Hewn into the living rock of Stonehenge...

Stonehenge!
Where the demons dwell
Where the banshees live and they do live well
Stonehenge!
Where a man is a man and the children dance
To the pipes of Pan...

Stonehenge!
Tis' a magic place,
Where the moon doth rise, with a dragon's face
Stonehenge!
Where the virgins lie
And the prayer of devils fill the midnight sky...

And you my love, won't you take my hand
We'll go back in time,
To that mystic land
Where the dew drops cry, and the cats meow
I will take you there
I will show you how....

And Oh how they danced...
The little children of Stonehenge
Beneath the haunted moon...
For fear that daybreak, might come too soon...

And where are they now?
The little people of Stonehenge...
And what would they say to us,
If we were here.........Tonight.......

  • the lyrics are still more meaningful than the average Rush song

  • This is a truly beautiful composition. Listen to it.

  • @jackal59 I hear some resemblance to The Oath by Kiss

  • i love the part where the tiny stonehenge comes down and the dwarves start dancing! I practically couldnt breath from laughter.

  • @sevewone Maybe if they did heavy metal in doubly...

  • Those stones dont look to be 18 inches high !

  • @UniformConfusion I hear some Rush, some Tull, and a little bit of Uriah Heep circa "Demons and Wizards." And, just to make it better, the drummer for most of the film (Ric Shrimpton) was played by Ric Parnell, the drummer for Atomic Rooster.

  • @UniformConfusion Rush had their heyday a little later. In my opinion, the song was intended as a parody of heavy metal interest in the occult / paganism as well as the glam scene (hence the silver glitter eyeshadow that Nigel and David wear in the movie)

  • @davidl9999 rockumentary*

  • @UniformConfusion. Yeah, "This Is Spinal Tap" was a movie about a "fake" heavy metal band put together by Rob Reiner (of All in the Family fame) to mock heavy metal in a comedy skit for the "The TV Show" pilot episode (that didn't become a series) in '79. It turned out that the band was good, so "This Is Spinal Tap" came out in '84 as a mockumentary about the band that sort of never was. Except they were, and sometimes still perform (as of 2009).
