Omg, I LOVE listening to Christopher Lee's voice! He has like the coolest, darkest, doomest voice ever! I want that voice. And man, he can sing too! And act! Is there anything that man can't do?!
Oh man, does this bring me very nostalgic moments. I was 16 back then when this album was released. Sadly when Joey had joined as manager, it was the beginning of the end of Rhapsody.
Right...they can't be commercialized a lot, what they play i's not an easy listening kind of music...people listen to what you make them listen: many of them just don't have the culture to choose what is good or bad. Rhapsody is a great band, and won't be just a shooting star...Luca's Italian/Trieste accent is really HEAVY by the way...makes me always laugh (don't get me wrong, I'm Italian too!). HeavyMetal&Rhapsody 4ever!
I LOVE their italian accent, it's so nice hearing them speak... I wish they had more songs in italian One of the best bands ever! They should make a movie with their tales... With Christopher Lee, of course!
It's 'triestine' accent :D The accent of people who live in Trieste, Italy. They speak English in this funny and nice way. I lived there and I know Alex Staropoli :)
I was saying to myself all the time while seeing this video "O my gods, I love these guys... wow! this is amazing! history! "music history" -quoting Mr. Lee
I don't know, I might snicker a little bit at the plastic crown, but then I would immediately avert my gaze and claw out my vocal cords as an act of atonement.
I have the Vision From the Enchanted Lands DVD, and it has a Making of the Dark Secret documentary, but it is different from this. It is longer, but doesn't have some of the parts from this documentary. What is this from?
@penguinofhell That's funny...I always thought Norris' powers manifested after he was spoken to -directly- by Sir Lee. What is even more miraculous about this exchange is that it all happened in the scant time it took Sir Lee to comment offhandedly on the weather. "Hmm, looks like rain. Pity." Shortly thereafter, The legend of Chuck Norris began.
he's just thinking "yes, I have a crown. It's about time I got one. I'm amazing!" seriously though this guy could go anywhere, he could go into a godamn macdonalds wearing a crown, robe, an ornate sword and and carrying a gnarled wizard's staff and it would just fit, no one could question it and no one would.
The next album they should make should involve more Film-score as they mentioned in this video. I don't get that film feel with Chaos of Eternity and The Sea of Fate album. More albums like the Enchanted Lands sagas would be so epic. Especially with our technology as opposed to 2004
Yeah it's really well said. But Rhapsody isn't well known because their music is not commercialized. I believe it must remain that way. This IS the special spicey.... Hyper-commercialized artists are popular only for a short while, and after that everyone forget about them. Rhapsody may have had a (rather) weak popularity, but they have kept it from the beginning to the end.
Textual backstory may sound interesting on paper, but the musicianship tells the story in a way that transcends spoken language. Plus, less narrations means less likelihood of those godawful spoken interludes where Luca/alex try to talk around their accents and in the process sound truly absurd and kill the mood entirely.
@MOLRobocop It would be the most well-spoken porno in the history of pornos! No mere starlets for Sir Lee; only the finest of theatrically trained women would be interested in roles. It would be the first skin flick to debut on Broadway, to universal acclaim, no less.
Me neither. I guess Americans like myself cannot grasp Rhapsody's popularity because our popular music is just adolescent bullshit. One of out most popular songs at the time has lyrics that consist of almost nothing but,"Shake shake shake shake shake shake shake."
love rhapsody.. I think Joey from manowar liked rhapsody so much he tried making the last manowar album sound more symphonic..=P bad choice, so boring. oh and christopher lee rules.

"I'm Christopher Lee, and I'm sitting here in this recording studio"
Even when Christopher Lee talk it's epic
I love Christopher he is the best actor/singer in the world.
Christopher Lee + Rhapsody = EPIC WIN!!!
I hope Christopher keeps his career going as long as possible.
Omg, I LOVE listening to Christopher Lee's voice! He has like the coolest, darkest, doomest voice ever! I want that voice. And man, he can sing too! And act! Is there anything that man can't do?!
Incredible voice, legendary actor.
Sir Lee is a genuine king!
Oh man, does this bring me very nostalgic moments. I was 16 back then when this album was released. Sadly when Joey had joined as manager, it was the beginning of the end of Rhapsody.
Christopher and Rhapsody will go down in Metal History
too cool this cd im very proud to have this experience live^^
Great! Genial!
Rip my favorite actor and thank te band of all good moment whit him
I can't argue with that. He's one of the most epic people to ever live.
With one POSSIBLE exception of adult movies ;) great touch of humour from a brilliant man.
luca turilli and haerman ly are the most populari guitarists and the best of this world and cristopha lee too
I Love Christopher Lee
Daaaaamn, Mr. Christopher Lee's voice is so great, amazing =D. Rhapsody ftw!!!
Excellent video, explained some things for me.
i like how thickly italian Turilli is "No?"
Probably the only man that could wear a crown and a priest's uniform, and make it look badass.
Turilli's voice is cool.
That is AWESOME!
@Aigoth When this album came out, the band was called Rhapsody, but since Triumph or Agony came out, they're now called Rhapsody of Fire.
Right...they can't be commercialized a lot, what they play i's not an easy listening kind of music...people listen to what you make them listen: many of them just don't have the culture to choose what is good or bad. Rhapsody is a great band, and won't be just a shooting star...Luca's Italian/Trieste accent is really HEAVY by the way...makes me always laugh (don't get me wrong, I'm Italian too!).
HeavyMetal&Rhapsody 4ever!
Loved Luca Turilli's English :)
That video is so awsome, just in the metal you see that beautifull pice of art. The voice of cristopher lee is really awesome.
Most unique metal group ever, new cd out in 3 days, and I have loved christopher lee since his days doing splatter movies and Im 20
I LOVE their italian accent, it's so nice hearing them speak... I wish they had more songs in italian
One of the best bands ever!
They should make a movie with their tales... With Christopher Lee, of course!
It's 'triestine' accent :D The accent of people who live in Trieste, Italy. They speak English in this funny and nice way. I lived there and I know Alex Staropoli :)
WELL SAID DUDE!!!
HAIL TO RHAPSODY, LUCA and ALEX!
I was saying to myself all the time while seeing this video "O my gods, I love these guys... wow! this is amazing! history! "music history" -quoting Mr. Lee
if christopher lee went out for a walk in those clothes people wouldn't laugh. they'd bow down and worship
Damn I was hoping to christopher lee in an adult movie.
"I just flew in.. few days ago, and we did three days of recording.. for orchestra, 80 pieces. And choir. And that was really good."
Baritone voice?! That's one of the best bass-voices I've ever heard!
What he ment to say"so a buch of europeans took me to burger king and i got this cool hat. And after i got this cool hat i sang for them"
I don't know, I might snicker a little bit at the plastic crown, but then I would immediately avert my gaze and claw out my vocal cords as an act of atonement.
I have the Vision From the Enchanted Lands DVD, and it has a Making of the Dark Secret documentary, but it is different from this. It is longer, but doesn't have some of the parts from this documentary. What is this from?

excelente!!!n_n
Rhapsody was right Christopher Lee is the best choice for them
"... AND IM SITTING HERE IN THIS RECORDING STUDIO" hahaha!!!
he's just thinking "yes, I have a crown. It's about time I got one. I'm amazing!" seriously though this guy could go anywhere, he could go into a godamn macdonalds wearing a crown, robe, an ornate sword and and carrying a gnarled wizard's staff and it would just fit, no one could question it and no one would.
because he can that's why he can wear whatever he wants
@chris4laura
It's his birthday, and Luca took him out to Burger King.
LOL!
Agreed, the man is epic.
I knew it looked like Christopher Lee - I just didn't think it would be him! Cos I only have one song... Thunder's Mighty Roar.
omg!!! i never knew that chris lee did the voice over.... thats way cool XDDD i knew it was familiar though, go me.
@MessengerForte Funny thing is that he actually played in a softcore adult movie.
Christopher Lee could make a porno win an academy award.
still... he IS a king
"One should try everything in life except incest and folk dancing"!
i cracked a few ribs laughing at that!
Why does Christopher Lee have the buger king crown on? :p
When did Joey DeMaio became Rhapsody manager and is he still their manager?
@OceanicMetal Even though I really like both of those shows, I couldn't agree with you more.
Folk-dancers disliked this video.
I like Mr.Lee´ jacket xD
does chris lee always wear a crown?
The next album they should make should involve more Film-score as they mentioned in this video. I don't get that film feel with Chaos of Eternity and The Sea of Fate album. More albums like the Enchanted Lands sagas would be so epic. Especially with our technology as opposed to 2004

Is it still called rhapsody of fire?
with the "possible" exception hehe
@GerpieLPs oh gosh that made me lol
I sure know how that is. I made a video comparing Rhapsody to Soulja Boy. Even though SB is popular, he is not good.
That is just what I was saying. I was saying that America's taste in music for the most part is very poor compared to the rest of the world.
we italians are the best arent we?
Gods i love Christopher Lee....i wish i could dress up like that and get away with it
Holy shit "maybe with the exception of adult movies" HAHAHA
😘
Except adult movies?!?
So, no Dracula Has Risen IN The Grave, then?
Textual backstory may sound interesting on paper, but the musicianship tells the story in a way that transcends spoken language. Plus, less narrations means less likelihood of those godawful spoken interludes where Luca/alex try to talk around their accents and in the process sound truly absurd and kill the mood entirely.
hahahaha hes just sat there in a shit looking crown, hahaha looks like a burger king advert
@POCKETFA
and we all if that's possible..and while sex play the guitar and speak Italian .God bless you :)
@MOLRobocop It would be the most well-spoken porno in the history of pornos! No mere starlets for Sir Lee; only the finest of theatrically trained women would be interested in roles. It would be the first skin flick to debut on Broadway, to universal acclaim, no less.
Yeah! The lord of the rings!
Marry Me Luca!!
Me neither. I guess Americans like myself cannot grasp Rhapsody's popularity because our popular music is just adolescent bullshit. One of out most popular songs at the time has lyrics that consist of almost nothing but,"Shake shake shake shake shake shake shake."
Why is he dressed like the burger king?
Check out Eugenie from 1970.
they're absolutely italians XD
anche io
...except adult movies...
(I know) :D
italskej přízvuk v angličtině je nejhustší xD
hes a regular.
love rhapsody..
I think Joey from manowar liked rhapsody so much he tried making the last manowar album sound more symphonic..=P bad choice, so boring. oh and christopher lee rules.
hes funny when he talks in english hehe
seriously?!
luca turilli's english is a really disaster XD!!!!!!!!!!!!!
