We live and die like all the rest Every summer has its sunset every year Love and hope put to the test Every grain of comfort holds the seed of fear And I loved you long ago And I love you still But the roads that we have travelled took us far apart Scattered to the four winds Someday we will find the time to heal And I loved you long ago And the scars that bear my name are the wounds that never heal But the road that we have travelled took us far apart And I love you still And I loved you long ago
Basura mejor que aproveche esa voz con los grandes iron Maiden por qué como solista no tiene nada que hacer, eso es como manejar un Ferrari en carretera destapada
I could see why he wants to do some solo albums. Maiden can play and like to play fast but sometimes an artist likes to slow it down a bit and use his or hers vocals more as an expression. Ballads give the fingers a rest between fast playing a set so it's not so bad. great song
Хей хора, никога до този момент, не бях чувал Брус да пее толкова нежно и чувствено ... Колко пъти ще откриваме Пол Дикинсън в този живот? М-р Дикинсън , винаги носи изненади със себе си.
Everyone seems to think this song is about spring. It is not because the day in question is the Winter Solstice, the first day of winter. In Tears of the Dragon the day 'he' waits for is the winter sun. It is the same in a couple other of Bruce's songs. There are many repeating precepts in his songs like frozen emotions, tears he couldn't cry, walking alone, much time passing, etc. Bruce in his songs actually indicate that his songs are a prophecy about a specific personage that he gives the alias of Wicker Man that will come at the end of time. The seed that reveals itself is the same seed as 1 Corinthians 15:38 and Isaiah 66:22. The earth that renews is the new earth of Revelation 21 and Isaiah 66:22. Others may write some of the songs he sings but since the precepts are the same throughout his solo career as well as when he is with Iron Maiden it is clear that the inspiration for the songs come from him. At least that is the way I choose to see it.
It's 2021 and I've just heard this track for the first time while watching Scream For Me Sarajevo. Going to have to look for some more of his solo music now.
It's so funny, that there are quite some song titles that first Bruce used in his solo career, and than they became titles of Maiden songs: Wicker Man, The Alchemist, Man of Sorrows (I don't know, if I forgot any)
Funny enough it seems Tobias Sammet was inspired by iron maiden and Bruce Dickinson. Because on Edguys Mandrake album he has a song called Jerusalem. On Avantasia the Metal Opera part one, Sign of the Cross and The Tower.
Never paid attention before to the lyrics of this song, but I loved it, my husband showed it to me, a very fan... Now we are not together anymore and this song becomes bittersweet to me... So much meaning and our sad ending written on it...
