@@jamesb7616 He would sure have loved that... or thinking about it, he might have prefered a good German beer or Guiness and sing the "bard Song" at the top of his lungs with you. He enjoyed Blind Guardian with his friends in Wacken open air and his friend still keep telling me funny stories about their "adventures". They still do miss him a lot, as do I.

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 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 No one should ask you for the name Of the one Who tells the story Tomorrow will take us away Far from home No one 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, dwarfs and men And elves Come close your eyes You can see them too

[@jimenezromain405]

This is so fcking beautiful and reminiscent of the modesty that live in them I love how the meaning of the song appears when performed live : when Hansi stops to sing and the public starts singing on its own for some long seconds, you know that their bard’s song will remain and their stories will be remembered even after them. It always takes me to the throat

Jaw droopingly beautiful, a masterful performance of voice guitar and wood wind. Truly brilliant. Loved the small use of vocal fry, I love that one of voice as long as it’s not over done. Two guitarists that compliment and feed off each other, rather than the usual fighting for glory garbage. Well done guys.
