All,

Sadly Ronnie James Dio passed. I've been a fan throughout his career. His passing got me thinking about his music. With Black Sabbath (on the album Heaven and Hell - - - one of the best Sabbath albums imo), I was brought to mind the song "Children of the Sea". I am 3/4 of the way through "Memories of Ice" and I thought this was the perfect song to represent the history of the Barghast. Link to the song on YouTube: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=DJQQWbr4cXM.


I welcome your comments.

Lyrics
In the misty morning, on the edge of time
We've lost the rising sun, a final sign
As the misty morning rolls away to die
Reaching for the stars, we blind the sky

We sailed across the air before we learned to fly
We thought that it could never end
We'd glide above the ground before we learned to run, run
Now it seems our world has come undone

Oh they say that it's over
And it just had to be
Ooh they say that it's over
We're lost children of the sea, oh

We made the mountains shake with laughter as we played
Hiding in our corner of the world
Then we did the demon dance and rushed to nevermore
Threw away the key and locked the door

Oh they say that it's over, yeah
And it just had to be
Yes they say that it's over
We're lost children of the sea

In the misty morning, on the edge of time
We've lost the rising sun, a final sign
As the misty morning rolls away to die
Reaching for the stars, we blind the sky

Oh they say that it's over, yeah
And it just had to be
Oh they say that it's over
Poor lost children of the sea, yeah

LOOK OUT! the sky is falling down!
LOOK OUT! The world is spinning round and round and round!
LOOK OUT! The sun is going black, black
LOOK OUT! It's never never never coming back, LOOK OUT!

A rather late response, but for the whole week I was mourning Dio.

Throughout the weed I listened only to Dio's songs. Too bad Cannibal Corpse didn't play any tribute to him on May 16th concert here in South Florida.

This song does, in fact, remind me of the Barghast. Nice finding.

Sounds like a decent week

haha, yeah, would be if my brother left the house every once in a while to give me space to smoke one or 5 blunts, eh?
