Blackmore's Night - Loreley (Live)

Great live version of this song from the album Ghost Of A Rose

Lyrics:
-------
Merrily we sailed along
Though the waves were plenty strong
Down the twisting river Rhine
Following a song...
Legend's faded storyline
Tried to warn us all
Oh, they called her "Loreley"
Careful or you'll fall...

Oh, the stories we were told
Quite a vision to behold
Mysteries of the seas in her eyes of gold...
Laying on the silver stone, such a lonely sight
Barnacles become a throne, my poor Loreley...

And the winds would cry, and many men would die
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...

You would not believe your eyes, how a voice could hypnotize
Promises are only lies from Loreley
In a shade of mossy green, seashell in her hand
She was born the river queen, ne'er to grace the land...

Oh, the song of Loreley
Charms the moon right from the sky...
She will get inside your mind, loveley Loreley...
When she cries "Be with me until the end of time"
You know you will ever be with your Loreley...

Suits. The Loreley is a rather tricky bend of the river Rhine (Germany). Wrecked shipmen claimed they saw a naked blonde sitting on the rocks singing an enticing song.

yeah!!!, you're very right, one of the reasons why I love this song is because it reminds me of a blonde friend of mine ^_^

Great tune. Classis Blackmore tone and picking on the intro and solo.

With the plentitude of mindless swill on the music market these days it is truely refreshing to hear Blackmore's Night.

Blackmore´s Night took money for the cancelled concert in Svihov castle.

Two weeks the promoter tried to contact BN to agree on compensation of the concert to their fans. Using the tickets from Svihov for the next concert was suggested. BN manager didn´t respond to e-mails and ignored phone calls although the full payment for the concert had been on BN bank account and all advance invoices of the providers´ had been paid.

The reason why everyone likes this chick is because she resembles Wifey and everyone wants to jizz on her face. :D

Whow... Ritchie Blackmore becomes better and better! Impossible to imagine he would come back to Deep Purple. I'm sure he would blow every other guitarist in this universe away...

Blackmore's Night is also great. But I wish he would play some concerts with DP again...

@Pitfossil I guess it was Candice before she married Ritchie.
