Now here on RU-vid; the metal has spoken, AND WE LIVE AGAIN!!! God help me I can still hear Keith David's voice in my head and the sound effects from the various scenes playing in the intro!
One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled. It was a time of darkness. It was a world of fear. It was the age of gargoyles. Stone by day, warriors by night, we were betrayed by the humans we had sworn to protect, frozen in stone by a magic spell for a thousand years. Now, here in Manhattan, the spell is broken, and we live again! We are defenders of the night! We are GARGOYLES!
It might come as a huge shock to some people, but I’m only 23 and a huge fan of the series. I wish there were more series like this that didn’t shove a narrative down our throats
I remember watching the show at 9 years old, I didn’t really understand it but I loved the intro and my favorite characters were Elisa and Goliath. I just recently found this video and it made me so happy so I started the show again
Goliath: *Deep, contemplative voice* It's curious to me why the humans chose to create a metal cover for the intro of our beloved "Gargoyles" TV series. We were stone by day and alive by night, symbols of a forgotten era. Perhaps they thought this modern adaptation represented the passage of time, just as the cold, unyielding metal contrasts with our ancient, living stone forms. Humans always seek to reinterpret our story. Goliath: *His thoughts deepen* This metal cover, it's like a shield, protecting the essence of our tale. A barrier between our past and the present, preserving our legacy. I wonder if the humans realize how deeply connected we are to our story, how we resonate with their fascination with the mysterious and the enduring. But like our own history, this metal cover serves a dual purpose. It reflects their own society, one of constant change and progress. Just as we, the gargoyles, had to adapt to a new world, so too does this adaptation of our intro represent their evolving world. It's a reminder that even the most timeless tales must change to survive in a changing world.
You know what? This is what did it. Snooped around on ITunes and found your stuff. Even got the two singles. Great guitar work. The music is great, it muffled the lead singers voice a bit, though. Keep up the excellent work!
Wow, Beatifully done! Really well played and executed. Just subscribed. I recently started posting weekly on RU-vid myself and much to my surprise, I find that I really enjoy the creative process. Keep it up! 🎸🎸🎸👏😎
