Amen. And don't forget the Battle of Lepanto. Tired of people today trashing the Crusades and Crusaders. They fought for what they believed in and most of them sold property and exhausted what they had to fight for Christendom. It's very fashionable to dis them today but most people I hear doing this have no idea of the history of the Crusades. God Bless those who fought for what they believed in.

You also have to consider that the crusaders fought a defensive war in that they after 750 years of Muslim attacks on Christian countries tried to reconquer one former Christian country.

@@tchitcho5169 Saladin is not considered as one of the 10 greats general of all times by military historians. One of the reasons is that Saladin was was quite good at running away. For example after the battle of Montgisard were Saladin's army was destroyed by Balduin IV of Jerusalem or after the battle of Arsuf, where Saladin's army was destroyed by the crusader army under Richard I Lionheart of England. Saladin had the fortune that all his more comptent enemies died before him (Balduin IV / Nur al Din) or had to leave the holy land because of troubles at home (Richard I). In that regards he was like Philippe August of France who also managed to survive all more competent enemies. (Henry II and Richard I of England) and won against a incompetent leader (John without Land)

Funny how the followers of Ishmael and Isaac have been fighting over 2 centuries and have not found the way of peace. One professes to follow a Saviour who was forgiveness, love and peace , yet lusts for the battlefield even with citizens of their own country. Wonder what Abraham would say today. Maybe sending Ishmael away caused a rift that will never be conquered because they never learned to live as brothers. I think the last verse sums up humanity pretty well, the only Wiseman is the fool.

If you read the history of the crusades you would think differently. Most of them were a rag-tag bunch of mercenaries who tended to fight battles with anyone they came across, whether Jews, Muslims or Christians. They killed a lot of innocent people on the way to the holy land. Many of them never got there, choosing to settle in Byzantium instead.

I think you may have missed the point of the line. You'll notice it was spoken by The Fool. I think the implication is that the fool has an overly romanticized view of the crusades. The message of the song, I think, is that war has always been evil, for the same reasons as today. The choruses, "I am the king" vs "God is our king," reflect two different worldviews - one of self-worship, on the part of Saladin, and one of religious fanaticism, on the part of the crusaders. Obviously these are not historically-accurate portrayals of the figures involved, but fictionalized to make a point as a sort of a parable. The song of the crusader is still with us, the song is saying - but it was always one of greed and evil. Alternatively, one could argue that the claim of greed and evil is false, and that a noble song of the crusader is still with us. In either case, don't listen to the Fool - he's wrong.
@TheOneAndOnlyMrTinoАй бұрын
It depends on whether you see the fool as a fool or a jester. Often, the fool is employed as a proto-stage to a wise man or wisdom as such. Or a sharer of unexpected insight. Moreover, don't ignore the juxtaposition of wise man - fool. The stanza further explicitly contrasts the wise man's search for truth in the past, whilst the fool pragmatically looks at the present. And remarks that the wise man's desire and life's work to reproduce what got enemies together nowadays is impossible due to a lack of purity, taken over by greed and evil. I personally don't see a trace of your reading if you respect the archetypal uses of wise man and fool. I guess we can agree it's an intriguing lyrical presentation and a lot of food for thought:)
@ManFromThePitsАй бұрын
@@TheOneAndOnlyMrTino This is true! However, I would argue that first, there was never purity (supported by preceding verses, in which the crusaders are presented as violent religious fanatics), and second, a lack of purity does not imply a lack of goodness. Due to the apparent naivete of the fool in this stanza, I would argue that he is not a jester, but is in fact a fool. The wise man is a hopeful figure, imagining that, and I quote, "could it be that way again?" Depending on your interpretation of the preceding verses, he might be considered naive in his belief in the nobility of the crusaders, or just idealistic. Either way, he is looking for solutions and hope, while the fool just dismisses the past and its ideals as dead, while the present is hopeless - a very nihilistic, and in my opinion, foolish position to take. Yes, there are greedy and evil men fighting today, but so were there in the past, and while Jerusalem may be lost, the song of the Crusader need not be, for there are also still good men fighting today, sometimes on the same side as the evil ones. TL;DR: You made an important point about the symbolism of the fool. However, looking at the larger context of the song, I suspect your interpretation may be mistaken.

However misguided those before us were, the great driver for them was belief in something above them. Christian or Muslim. Today we slaughter each other for the profits of faceless men.

Great song if a little historically inaccurate.

Richard I (the lionheart) particapated in the 3rd crusade and was not exactly an example of christian mercy,ordering the execution of 2500 muslim prisoners after the siege of Acre in 1191. Richard I (the lionheart) never actually attacked Jerusalem but did defeat Saladin at the battle of Arsuf 1191.He never returned to England dying at a siege in France.

"What do I do now?" said the wise man to the fool, "I have spent my whole life searching, to find the Golden Rule, Though centuries have disappeared, the memory still remains, Of those enemies together, could it be that way again?" Then the fool said "Oh you wise men, you really make me laugh, With your talk of vast persuasion and searching through the past, There is only greed and evil in the men who fight today, The song of the Crusader has long since gone away.................................................................

This song is fantastic history! I have been living in Jerusalem for 3 years and I completely understand why people have fought and died over such a majestic city. Though I don't appreciate the carnage of Jews, Christians, and Muslims during the Crusades, this song is a wonderful story and the poetry is touching...not corny...

There is No One Righteous (Psalm 14:1-7) 9What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; 10As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: 11There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. 12They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. 13Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: 14Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: 15Their feet are swift to shed blood: 16Destruction and misery are in their ways: 17And the way of peace have they not known: 18There is no fear of God before their eyes. (Romans 3,9-18)KJV

Actually, Richard the Lionheart never laid siege to Jerusalem. But a beautiful song nonetheless!

He had a Peace treaty written in 1197 , that was the only time Richard the the Lionheart set foot in Jerusalem. I did Late Medieval history ( focusing on the crusades).

I was planning to create God in my pet fish's image this afternoon. Am I still allowed to do that?

Robert Niven Sadly, he was quite orthodox, but he has since died and been flushed down the toilet. I think his powers are now more infernal than divine.

Yes but the meaning and the story are everything. My love of this type of thing is very strong , I like the feeling and the history in this kind of story telling, somewhat like broadsword by Ian Anderson. FANTASTIC.

I can understand your comment, and I and I doubt anyone else would argue with that - it's just the whining that bugs me and the fighting over religion. It's pathetic. I like DeBurgh because he doesn't always sing about love and a woman he thinks is sexy in a red dress, oh wait, nevermind ;)

I remembered seeing him in concert in San Antonio, Texas in 1978 or 79! He was the opening act for Peter Frampton! He said that he hoped one day that he would become the main act! I feel he never accomplished his goal but did have some success! The Crusader and the Devils eye were my favorite songs of his!

Chris certainly did reach his goal! I have been to the Rock am Ring festival in 1985 where he was listed as headliner before U2 and Joe Cocker with an audience of 70.000 people. And he was absolutely amazing.
