@@Tyrband A quick question. Why have you not released or re-released more of your albums on vinyl? I know that I'd absolutely buy "By the light of the northern star" on vinyl. The market is there for it, since interest in vinyl today is the same as it was 29 years ago. Is there any reason why you have not?

LYRICS: Days are long and nights are cold, the rivers run I'm swept away down distant paths, the road goes on From the halls of the free to the tower of torment Where treasures lie in mountains high The silent fields of stars so far and wide The oceans of infinity, the great divide In the heavens on high is a light so lonely The evening star that shines so far When home is far behind and ever the long roads wind I keep your memory in my mind, one day I'll repay in kind For so long as I've gone and so far I've wandered The evening star has shone thus far River rushing, waters wide, just north of there Oh would that I was home again and home was here And the fire was warm and the wind would whisper You're home again, on roofs the rain When home is far behind and ever the long roads wind I keep your memory in my mind, one day I'll repay in kind For so long as I've gone and so far I've wandered The evening star has shone thus far When home is far behind and ever the long roads wind I keep your memory in my mind, one day I'll repay in kind For so long as I've gone and so far I've wandered The evening star to me you are.

To be a man that is gone. Making money far from home. Having the ones you love far away. Wishing for the rain. Having my house smell of burning wood and cooking meat." When home is far behind. And ever the long roads wind. I keep her memory in my mind. One day I'll repay in kind." Anybody understand what that feels like to be gone and promise that the emotion I feel when you are on the road is reciprocated? Everytime, And I mean everytime this song comes on... I think of home...and my son. The bed I share with my wife, and of course the woman that said she would help me destroy the world.... She is my Sif and I protect her like Midgard.
