      Jean-Luc Cypher All the Noldor and Sindar are Eldar, so Adriano is still correct.
      The Eldar who saw Valinor, and the light of the Two Trees, are: Vanyar, Noldor and some of the Teleri.

    That's how I like Blind Guardian's cover arts: a simple (even childish) yet symbolic drawing, the band logo a little bit blurred, no fucking effects, no fucking photoshop.
    And the music speaks for it, and fits perfect to it. That's all.

      ALL religions come from sacred divine plant entheogens that take you millions of times deeper within yourself than ypour blind ego-mind of duality wants to go. Enjoy the following link- jaysongaddis.com/the-ayahuasca-wave/ . And ALL religions say that by only going deep into your darkness far beyond where your blind mind wants go, can you ever find light. After ten Ayahuasca ceremonies will you fully understand the infinite beauty of Blind Guardian songs like " Journey through the dark" and what it all really means,, and songs like "THORN" (dying before you die to meet your Soul in the 5th dimension"), and songs like "Lost in the Twilight Hall" (see all your past lives and see the cosmic universal design of how it interacts with your present life and the true Soul journey and the infinite meanings of what it all means, that your ego- mind is totally oblivious and totally blind to !!), and songs like this one "Quest for Tanelorn" - how who you think you are is all total illusion in your total blindness and total stupidity, , and of course songs like "Punishment divine" (the laws of Nature instead of a God in heaven - which implies separation of the ego-mind separated from Soul and humanity's total blindness to infinite beautiful laws of Nature and the Universe).. and of course songs like Otherland, which show everything you believe in this human society is a total web of lies,
      and songs like "Prophecies" by Blind Guardian that explicitly tell you that you must pass through the "RED Doors" of your darkness to find the light, hence why your lower 3 chakras are your ego and darkness, and the root chakra, the lowest chakra is RED (look it up) !! And don't worry, Mother Ayahuasca will take you to those Red doors far beyond the veils and blindness of your mind of thoughts, DEEP within you..
      . Do you think it's just a coincidence that every religion on the planet tells you to "Separate from thought", just as the bible says to separate from thought 5 times, symbolizing your silly belief of the physical is who you think you are in your total blindness - Taste - smell, touch, see, hear , in all your lies and you self-deception, your blind ego-mind always and forever in the illusion of time always lying to your-SELF .
      All thoughts come from the illusion of time in past or future in the left brain of blindness of the countless lies of the "I" and who you think you are, which are all lies. Hence why Jesus said: If you want to catch fish (wisdom), cast your nets on the RIGHT side of the ship (and ship always meant MIND in the ancient texts), and hence why you see statues of Buddha, shamans, and Shive always raising their right arm up, in total surrender of spirit and infinite truths of Soul in the 5th dimension (God and all that is, is SOUL
      Again, just as EVERY religion on the planet says in the scriptures- "ONLY in your darkest darkness can you ever find your light" .. as when you surrender to yoiur pain and all your demons and ALLOW them to devour you, they cannot actually dissolve you. The mind is stupid to fight demons because that is exactly what you become, you become the demonss you fight, as light fight nothing as its infinite self aware, but you have no self-awareness whatsoever as you are always fighting other ideologies by your silly beliefs, and you only believe your beliefs because you have no clue who you are. Because if you knew who you are and met your Soul (God and the universe within you), then there woulds be no use for beliefs of the blind mind) .. as you woul be led by 5th dimension of Soul in everything you do, not the blind duality of the blind mind of the 3rd dimension of the fake physical, as all matter is 99.999999999% empty space, and totally meaningless.
      but of course churches never teach to go into your darkness deep within you to keep you in ego blindness, as reaching for the light is what creates all your darkness within.
      As all people do all day in the blindness of their ego mind of reflect their own darkness onto others, and they have no clue that it is their own darkness they are seeing in others, as we are all sacred mirrors. The ego mind of thought is the blindest, by far the dumbest, by far the most self-defeating and self hating entity in the entire infinite Universe.
      Termites have more consciousness than the human thinking left brain mind. and that is not an exaggeration, that is the absolute truth. As of the infinite worlds of beauty, only humans are stupid enough to destroy themselves (each other) and their own planet at the alarming rate it's happening. There is no dumber and more blind entitiy in the Universe than the blind human mind of thought.
      when you meet your soul in the 5th dimension of consciousness, only then will you totally understand that everything I am telling you is true,. Otherwise you will always be a prisoner to your 3rd dimension mind of thought.
      If you cannot see God in all, then you cannot see God at all.
      Humanity is all about looking outwardly for Truths. That's why humans are fake, incredibly cowardly, unconscious, and lost. God is all about going inwardly for Truths. That's why God is real, incredibly genuine, is infinite Consciousness, and infinitely self-aware.
      '' Man is the most insane species, he worships an invisible God and destroys a visible Nature. Totally unaware that the Nature he's destroying is the God he's worshiping. '

    Side A
    1. Time What Is Time 05:46 Hide lyrics
    When the moonchild is crying
    And silence has broken
    The darkest truth
    The things she remembered
    Had never been her own
    Replicant or human
    I know the way to show
    What do I see
    What will I find
    Know the answer inside
    It's your last step
    Ref.:
    Time what is time
    I wish I knew how to tell You why
    It hurts to know
    Aren't we machines
    Time what is time
    Unlock the door
    And see the truth
    Then time is time again
    Whispering
    These dreams were never mine
    It's cold inside
    It's gone forever
    The things he saw
    Who can say what's wrong or right
    The vision of a free life
    His eyes had seen it all
    For what
    He's asking
    The vision, vision, vision
    I know it's all a lie
    I'll remember his past life
    And I'll remember time
    What did I see
    What have I done
    God I knew the answers
    When he felt so tired
    Ref.:
    Time what is time
    Come lock the door don't let me in
    I am the one Your destiny
    Time what is time
    Reality - It hurts me so
    When time is time again
    (Solo)
    Look into my eyes
    Feel the fear just for a while
    I'm a replicant and I love to live
    Is it all over now
    Only these years
    I'll leave but I'm singing
    Ref.:
    Time what is time
    He saw it clearly it's too late
    It does not heal but it lets us forget
    Time what is time
    We'll never know
    So don't take care
    Then time is time again
    Should I forget
    The way I feel
    God he knows how long I tried
    Feel there is no reason to cry
    I live my life
    In fortune dreams forever
    2. Journey Through the Dark 04:48 Hide lyrics
    Many songs I've written
    About the things I saw
    My inner soul's a wasteland
    I can't run away from here
    Try to find them
    All the lost thoughts in my mind
    I woke up on a hill
    So many times before
    Yesterday seems like a dream no more
    Frozen memories laughing
    They don't let me find the truth
    Am I born to be a king
    Or a jester of the fools
    Ref.:
    You're the mystical old bard
    on your journey through the dark
    Mystical old bard
    Your journey through the dark
    I can't remember my name
    I never knew how to find my home
    I can't remember my name
    come tell me where will it end
    I'm the chosen one
    To perform all these things
    But not for me
    In illusions and reality
    I'm on my journey through the dark
    I'm on my journey through the dark
    Ref.
    (Solo)
    I can't remember
    Will I ever find myself
    The distance is growing
    My hope has gone away
    A flash of light but nothing changes
    When will it end
    Which part of me remains
    Soon I'll be back
    On my ferryboat of tales
    Where oblivion reigns
    It will take all of me
    Ref.
    3. Black Chamber 00:58 Hide lyrics
    I am lost in the black chamber
    There's no way to turn back
    It takes me down forevermore
    And death would be so sweet
    I'm possessed by the old creature
    Who had planned all
    To take my soul
    Too late for me
    In my hands
    It liest I thought
    But I failed
    Now he's in me
    My soul is lost
    In his black chamber
    I'm gone
    4. Theatre of Pain 04:17 Hide lyrics
    The giant's lost
    And all round him
    Destructed for what
    They all knew what it meant
    But they couldn't change it
    Lord they had gone too far
    Leave them alone
    It's all gone
    What is left behind
    On a desert we called earth
    When the last whale went away
    Did they ever see the tears
    Don't fear Your last step
    From the theatre of pain
    And the children will love Your singing
    From the sea
    The sea is calling
    Now we've to leave it
    The sea was clear
    On the day I was stranded
    Answers I'd known
    To keep this all alive
    But I can't change it
    Forever
    (Solo)
    Now I'm gone
    And it seems that life had never existed
    So we left the dark and cold
    All I left behind are my tears
    Don't fear Your last step
    From the theatre of pain
    And the children will love Your singing
    From the sea
    The sea is calling
    I hear them calling
    5. The Quest for Tanelorn 05:57 Hide lyrics
    By the ruins he stands
    And he's waiting for me
    To enter Tanelorn
    His paths seems strange
    But they're always planned
    Seldom he succeeds
    About his own fate
    He tries to conquer it
    Again and again
    But at last he's almost
    A ruined man
    Not a king or God
    Who's searching for
    A place called Tanelorn
    Far beyond your dreams
    Ref.:
    On our quest for Tanelorn
    We lose our way
    On our quest for Tanelorn
    He's waiting
    He's waiting for me
    He's waiting
    He's waiting for me
    [Spiritus sanctus - vita aeterna]
    Darkness falling down on me
    Darkness - The eternal battle rises
    I know the answers
    Although they don't exist
    I'm just a mortal illusion
    Ref.
    (Solo)
    So I'm his companion
    Through space and through time
    His eternal servant
    He's calling me
    So I must leave
    To any life
    To another world
    Far beyond Your dreams
    To know the truth
    Just for a while
    He's longing for a place
    Where he can find himself
    Deliverance
    It could be everywhere
    How can he find
    He's waiting for me
    And for Your Tanelorn
    Ref.:
    On our quest for Tanelorn
    We lose our way
    On our quest for Tanelorn
    We lose our way
    On our quest for Tanelorn
    We lose our way
    On our quest for Tanelorn
    We're left alone
    Side B
    6. Ashes to Ashes 06:00 Hide lyrics
    Taste the poison
    Feel that this is life
    Hallowed be the game
    Of life and innocence
    God's waiting for him
    Join us at the road to fate
    There are no two paths
    Feel the pain
    Which steps into his life
    Agony
    He'll be crucified
    Death awaits
    Knocking at his door
    Agony
    Leave him
    The clock will strike the end
    Hell or heaven
    Reflect and fade away
    Ref.:
    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
    The life clock strikes and You obey
    Like a candle light that fades
    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
    When the life clock strikes You will obey
    Time isn't here to stay
    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
    the life clock strikes and You obey
    A light shows the right way
    Morning is whispering in my head
    Too late to say goodbye
    Too late
    The last breath's done
    Deliverance at all
    he's born to find this end
    I am the one
    The one who's calling
    Obey my call to the cemetary
    And don't be afraid
    To step into the dark
    Be sure that my voice
    will take You home
    Ref.:
    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
    The life clock strikes and You obey
    Like a candle light that fades
    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
    When the life clock strikes You will obey
    Time isn't here to stay
    (Solo)
    No hope he'd waited so long
    This can't be God's will
    He surrendered long ago
    There was no real chance
    Ashes to ashes and dust will be dust
    Ashes to ashes, you all will be dust again
    The clock had struck the end
    Up to heaven
    Reflexions fade away
    Ref. (1st)
    Taste the poison
    Feel that this is life
    Hallowed be the game
    7. The Bard's Song - In the Forest 03:10 Hide lyrics
    Now You all know
    The bards and their songs
    When hours have gone by
    I'll close my eyes
    In a world far away
    We may meet again
    But now hear my song
    About the dawn of the night
    Let's sing the bards' song
    Ref.:
    Tomorrow will take us away
    Far from home
    No one will ever know our names
    But the bards' songs will remain
    Tomorrow will take it away
    The fear of today
    It will be gone
    Due to our magic songs
    There's only one song
    Left in my mind
    Tales of a brave man
    Who lived far from here
    Now the bard songs are over
    And it's time to leave
    Noone should ask You for the name
    Of the one
    Who tells the story
    Ref.:
    Tomorrow will take us away
    Far from home
    Noone will ever know our names
    But the bards' songs will remain
    Tomorrow all will be known
    And You're not alone
    So don't be afraid
    In the dark and cold
    'Cause the bards' songs will remain
    They all will remain
    In my thoughts and in my dreams
    They're always in my mind
    These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men
    And elves
    Come close Your eyes
    You can see them, too
    8. The Bard's Song - The Hobbit 03:54 Hide lyrics
    Out in the distance
    There's so much gold
    The treasure that I've found
    Is more than enough
    Far to be the hill we've to go
    Over the mountain and seas
    To the old hill
    Where the old dragon sleeps
    Blind in the dark dungeon's night
    So God please take me away from here
    And Gollum shows the way right out
    I'm alive
    (Solo)
    The dying dragon brought trouble and pain
    And horror to the halls of stone
    I'll take the mighty stone
    And leave the dwarves behind
    Ice and fire and forest we passed
    And horror in the halls of stone
    Trolls in the dark
    The dawn took them all
    Caught in the wood
    By the wooden kings' men
    But now I'm alone
    'Cause I've made up my mind
    By the spell of gold
    The king under the mountain
    Will risk the great war
    Oh what a fool
    He's losing control
    So I am trying to find a way
    Blind in the dark dungeon's night
    Then darkness comes from the northern side
    And Thorin clears his mind
    9. The Piper's Calling 00:59 instrumental
    10. Somewhere Far Beyond 07:30 Hide lyrics
    I came from far
    Beyond Your reality
    The ocean of time
    It's the odysee of mine
    I am the narrator
    And now I'll tell You
    Where I've been
    And what I saw
    And how it ends
    Welcome to the wasteland
    In a world which is turning faster
    Where I'm alone for a while
    It's turning faster
    Away from light straight to the dark
    The march of time it has begun
    I'm caught in an ancient dream so bright
    And then the march of time begins
    The man in black he waits
    Behind this last task
    It's full of pain
    To sacrifice the only son
    The legions of the lost
    Wait in the old mine
    They try to stop me
    The battle it has begun
    So I'm not afraid
    To walk down to the wasteland
    I'm so alone on my way
    And I don't fear that dusty godforsaken path
    Somewhere far beyond
    Ref.:
    Somewhere far beyond
    The march of time it has begun
    Somewhere far beyond your reality
    And then the march of time begins
    Look at my soul
    And behind
    There are some things
    I've to hide from You
    I'm following the black man
    I'm losing control
    And I don't care
    What's happening to the boy
    Welcome to the new world
    One more step to the dark tower
    And my whole body's in flames
    I'm looking for Those healing things to be prepared
    The march of time it has begun
    I'm caught in a prisoner's dirty life
    And then the march of time begins
    The prisoner did bring the healing spell
    The queen of shadows found herself in pain
    And death brings answers to us all
    What will I find
    When the dark tower appears
    Will it be the end
    Or just a new quest after all
    I am the narrator
    And now I'll tell You
    Where I'd been
    And what I saw
    And how it ends
    (Solo)
    Ref. (2x)
    Look around and see
    The world is turning fast
    Faster day by day
    Somewhere far beyond
    I'll try to change it
    If I can - Somewhere far beyond
    There's only one chance
    And it lies - Somewhere far beyond
    Somewhere far beyond
    The march of time it has begun
    The march of time it has begun

    The more I listen to Blind Guardian, the more I love them. They are one of my all time favourite bands, and I'm not even that big a fan of metal. But ever since I first heard them six years ago, I've been a fan.

    • @Leyrann
      @Leyrann 7 лет назад +1

      From this album on, I would consider all albums except for A Twist in the Myth legendary... Though A Night at the Opera is included mostly because of And Then There Was Silence. That alone makes an album legendary.

    Apart from everything else about this epic album, those vocals on this record alone, are probably the most unearthly and unbelievably great vocals I've ever heard in my life. Both the layering, and Hansi's voice on its own. Among my top 10 albums for sure. Every song is killer, the production is stellar and powerful yet retains that amazing rawness at the same time, and the covers which are not here (cuz bonus tracks) are excellent too, especially their take on Queen's Spread Your Wings.

    • @toddvandell85
      @toddvandell85 5 лет назад +1

      @MrDR7no
      Hansi's voice reminds me of Twisted Sister's Dee Snider's voice on the up-tempo parts where he's scream-singing.
      (I like Dee's voice, so it's a compliment.😒)

  • @Hailstorm273
    @Hailstorm273 8 лет назад +23

    With the exception of three songs, I haven't heard any of this album before. Here's what I think about the songs from this listen.
    1. Great album opener. I have a feeling that it might be a highlight. The beginning felt a bit misleading, kind of like Majesty does, but that's a good way to catch the listener off-guard.
    2. Even better than Time What Is Time.
    3. This is a short song, but I love how it shows a softer side to the album.
    4. Another great song from the album. Slower than the first two songs, but it trades its speed for more symphonic elements.
    5. Tanelorn. That's a name I first heard in a song from At the Edge of Time, so I thought that maybe there is some sort of connection. Whether that's true or not, that doesn't change the fact that this song is epic. It makes you feel like you're a part of the story when you listen to it. Easily the best song so far!
    6. Seemed to be the darkest song on the album. It's also one of my favorites on here. This whole album just seems to be getting better and better with each song so far.
    7. Ah, yes, the single from the album. I liked it a lot more than I ever expected it to, since when I had Memories of a Time to Come I thought the song was overrated. Upon hearing it here, now I understand why the song is loved so much.
    8. I always liked this song. Picks up from the first Bard's Song nicely now that I've heard it in context. The ending kind of drags on, but other than that, no complaints.
    9. Not much to say here. It's just an interlude. The bagpipe melody is nice, but I didn't feel like it set up the final song that well.
    10. Somewhere Far Beyond is absolutely incredible! It's the best song on the whole album, and one of my favorite songs by them overall. The band couldn't have ended this disc in a more perfect way.

    • @robertdemeter5793
      @robertdemeter5793 7 лет назад +5

      It's fucking beautiful. This magical band is loaded with beautiful Spiritual truths in their music catalog. It's very deep so you have to look beyond what people tell you what the songs mean. Don't follow "labels" of what other people say the songs mean as the mind can only label things at the surface of images and is blind, as these songs all mean YOU in many deep ways that the left-brain thinking ego mind of thought cannot see or understand.
      In one of my Ayahuasca ceremonies after total surrender of the ego as I surpassed the illusions of death, eye was given the sword of light from the Universe. The sword of Light came through me in magical beauty as I was downloaded massive amounts of knowledge love and wisdom through my heart chakra. This magical sword is far beyond how you see a sword in a picture in the illusions of images as this sword is multi-dimensional as I became "one" with the sword, the sword was me and I was the sword, as ONE in infinite beauty and magic. The sword of Light is only to be used for love and light and becoming in full awareness of my Soul purposes and missions on this planet to help awaken humanity out of the countless illusions of society. Not a sword that can ever be used to harm anyone or anything.
      And through that experience I was taken back to this album that I listened to as a young man in the early 1990's, and Mother Ayahuasca showed me this Blind Guardian album cover and she said to me: " You see Robert, You have always been one of the chosen ones, and you will always be one of the chosen ones" .. and she showed me what a sword really means (that has absolutely nothing to do with what silly humans think a sword means as the blind human mind takes everything beautiful and sacred and twists it in countless lies)..
      The album cover is an Ayahuasca circle, with the Shaman playing Ayahuasca icaro's at the top through some kind of flute in the shape of an Ayahuasca vine on his chest, the flute at the bottom pointing to the light at the center of the circle. And he's elevated above everyone else sitting on a stool and wearing a crown (not just a hood like the others). And he also has a condor sitting on his shoulder (the highest flying bird that also has the ability to shift between Spiritual dimensions). In Ayahuasca art you will see the condor depicted quite often, and for infinite good reasons. Ayahuasca is the oldest and purest, and is by far the most effective form of Spiritual practice on the planet. Nothing could be more obvious as you listen to this album ;-)
      I so clearly remember as a child listening to heavy metal during the 1980's, & entire worlds opened up for me, bands such as Iron Maiden, Testament and other great bands such as "Death" and Queensryche ( "Roads To Madness" by Queensryche for example is an Eternal Spiritual Truths classic), etc. A little later on in the early 1990's I got into the beauty of Blind Guardian with their beautiful album 'Somewhere Far Beyond". So many beautiful things that fake bands like metallica and ac/dc could never come close to offering. I never understood when people would tell me that Heavy Metal music is far too heavy to get into and too overwhelming. I always laughed, since I was a child, how people would tell me that this isn't music, but only loud cannons firing.
      I ALWAYS laughed as they tried so hard to sway me, but could never sway me an inch. From family members to friends to pathetic pastors in churches (and let me tell you that you will NEVER find more fake people on the planet than fear-monger pastors and priests in churches), as nobody hates our beautiful Mother Earth and Nature and divides people's more with hatred than pastors in churches, and they mostly hate themselves. And I never once cared for their blind and pathetic opinions, I always laughed hysterically inside. I always laughed hysterically how they couldn't "get it." . Because to me, when listening to heavy metal, it was always a blissful sweet symphony of beauty !!
      For me, it was always so soft, and wonderful, so welcoming, and Magical !! I feel so sorry for the humans that have no capability to ever understand the beauty of real heavy metal music, because heavy metal has so many beautiful Spiritual messages from the infinite Universe that the blind ego-based mind of duality is afraid to see, and afraid to understand.
      Mother Ayahuasca showed me in infinite ways how Heavy Metal music was so vital and so beautiful in so many magical ways for my Spiritual growth. And this magical band of beauty, Blind Guardian, was absolutely Massive and monumental for my Spiritual journey of the Universe of be-ing and infinite truths of beauty of Light and Spirit. ;-) .. Mother Ayahuasca showed me how my Soul always chose the right bands and the right music, far beyond my mind. Intuitively I knew it all along... but my goodness Mother Ayahuasca showed me so many deep Spiritual truths in deeper ways of infinite understandings of Spirit, that the blind ego-mind that lives in the illusion of time and the illusions of duality, is totally incapable of understanding..

    Esse álbum junto com o temple of shadows do Angra entra na minha lista dos álbuns mais empolgantes do "power metal", sempre volto a escutar, diferente de outras bandas de power metal que acabam enjoando rápido.

    Does anybody know where can I find music similar to 0:00 - 0:0:40 ? I really liked The Bard's Song but I don't want to ruin which is my favourite song at the moment by listening it gazzillion times.

      +Nacho Romero In terms of Blind Guardian, Fiddler on the Green (Demons and Wizards), Skalds and Shadows, and A Past and Future Secret are a good place to start.
