Roland If I was to ride Falcor in The Neverending Story, this would be my soundtrack for it. The guitar/keyboard duels are to die for. A bit corny? Maybe. Fun to listen to? Absolutely!
If you're into Fantasy Power Metal à la Twilight Force, Dragonland and Fellowship you have to go on this journey! One of my favorite releases of 2023 🧙✨🐉 Favorite track: Midsummer's End.

Elased Top class Melodic Power Metal! I love this breathtaking keyboard - especially in duet with the guitar solos! Add to that a brilliant singer and you've won me over - even though I'm not really a Power Metal fan.

Verse: The pain is gone But the scars they're still remaining From that day when we fell from the sky And so you know The truth will be here for you When the universe decides it's your time Prechorus: One stormy cloud, on a winter's night When a trusted soul betrayed me Stabbed me like a knife I’ll walk away, and I’ll seal my fate I’ll take my own life to avoid all the pain From the lies, the fear The pain I felt inside my heart Chorus: On and on into the universe Sing a song for old memories A broken heart can't sing a melody But true friendship is a symphony On a comet's tail kissing the moon crest sky Dancing high on icy stars The journey begins with what lies within And at least I can feel true emotions Flowing from my heart and soul Chorus Outro: Don’t you cry Just make a wish and try Your heart will soar to the sky Forever more

Verse: The fear of the night The voices and what they're saying Deceit in their eyes The knives from their darkness always cutting Why do I feel so hated I opened my eyes I see things for what they are now A fairytale dies The oceans of icy fire wash away all the blind eyes They turn to her hate Chorus: I cry deep inside Knowing that they welcome my pain and the lies But the forest will see that I've reached my destiny And I'll never turn back towards their kind With a roar of thunder screams life to the stars And I'll fly with rainbows The power of the heart All my dreams will come true Now that I'm free from you The path untraveled Will lead me out of darkness Verse: Time passes by Another day to be thankful Away from their kind My power is overwhelming. Fly away This woods is pure perfection The sun in the sky The tides of the ocean shifting The moon in the night I stare at its light and wonder Where to now I'm soaring so far from their hate Chorus

Verse: All alone in this senseless time Seeking silence deep within (Can you hear the call of the moon, the sound of your beating heart) (A nightmare too real) Broken roads filled with emptiness Winding back through peaceful days (Ruins of your past will arise, scarred by the burning lies) Deep inside a power you will find Steel yourself and you will free your mind I’ve lost it all (you will survive) I cannot see (you shut your eyes) The clouds are dark (we see it) All throughout the universe, it’s everywhere But the winds of change are in the air! Chorus: And I pray - The earth and sky will heal my wounds before Darkness consumes my heart and soul The shadows of my past which haunt me Died in silence long ago Verse: Can't you see there's no sense in it Fear and doubt are laid to rest (Rising from the ends of the Earth, to the crown of the distant skies) (A new day begins) Here and now at the break of dawn Grief and sorrow fall away (Fading from the one final bastion of your dreams) Deep inside a power you will find Steel yourself and you will free your mind I’ve seen the light (it has begun) It calls for me (your time has come) The nightmare ends (forever) All throughout the universe, it’s everywhere But the winds of change are in the air! Chorus

Verse: Once long ago A time to be free The flag on the fortress Proud for all to see In a land where blades grow dull And armor left to rust Heroes will fight for all Righteous and just Pre-Chorus: And now- Under the raging thunderstorm Caught in the icy rain Rise March into a battle again Chorus: Tell me you won’t go Say it can’t be so You’ve seen it all a thousand times An army left to die Lost in wonder in a sea of stars Here and now Rise and fall One last time Verse: In from the cold And in from the dark Scholars of the ages Seers of beyond And the prophecy was told The words on the stone Heroes will stand before Demons alone Pre-Chorus: And now- Under the grey skies, falling down Falling down in the rain Rise March into your battle again Chorus: Bridge: Rising from the ashes like a phoenix Fighting back the reason that you know Seek all the answers you desire Storming through the wind and ice and snow Pre-Chorus: Chorus:

Premonitions 03:16
Long on the road left un-wandered On the hills where I feel no despair On the whim of a dream I see into lands unknown Long on the road filled with sorrow When the light, seemed so far away On the whim of a dream I walked out into the morning sun Hear the sound The word, the song One little secret in my mind Out of the shadows and into the light I go From the hills of near To the mountains far Over valleys carried by the wind Through the plains of ice Over waterfalls When the visions come to life Now I see past the shadow In a time of pure destiny On the whim of a dream I see what my life was meant to be Late in the night on the cold winter snow When stars all align in wonder Out of the shadows and into the light I go

The Oracle 08:07
Age old night turn into light Only in solitude will you find A spell to be cast A time to be heard, to be free The shroud of an old mystery And here in the dark The answers to life I divine Hear the sound of ancient whispers Telling secrets in my mind Feel the breath of life Hear the angels sing (A hero's born, a twist of fate, future tales of kings) Far over mountains and seas To an age old land of prophecy With an ardent call and dreams of one for all The oracle saves our world One final moment in time From the astral planes on wings of virtue In a court of singing angels at least one will know your name And a throne of sunlight rises on a brand new day In darkness shines a light Before the end of times with futures divine Long ago and across the sea Lost and far away from me Hear the call, see the signs lonely and waiting Feel the fire, hear the thunder Once more inside of you waiting for peace There you find body and mind Lost and torn asunder Hold on to your dreams and fantasies Knowing once you hear his name You will never be the same From the cosmos, once more in solitude I divine By sunlight (We are the keepers of the light) By moonlight (We are the watchers of the night) We see a miracle (We feel the fire) A trial by fire in these souls Draw the sword from stone You shall soon be king! (A tale of woe, a twist of fate, freedom you will bring) Hear the sound of ancient whispers Telling secrets in my mind Slay the beast of night Let your freedom ring (A hero's born, a twist of fate, hear the angels sing) Far over mountains and seas To an age old land of prophecy With an ardent call and dreams of one for all The oracle saves our world One final moment in time From the astral planes on wings of virtue In the hallowed halls of heroes at least one will stand and fight And raise a sword in freedom at the dying light Forever we stand strong And march on till the end with futures divine From the hills of near To the mountains far Over valleys carried by the winds of power and might Through the plains of ice Over waterfalls With a vision true (And a heart of gold) When the angels sing (You will be their king) Far across the sea (You will find your peace) When the future comes to light All the answers I divine

Miracle 05:25
Verse: See the ancient spirits cry Form the earth and paint the sky Of a brand new world Late at night a rainbow shining bright And we meet our destiny tonight. Chorus: With these Miracles, these Miracles I hear the sounds of nature in my heart With these Miracles, these miracles I hear the sounds of nature in my heart Verse: Star light, star bright Close your eyes and have the wish to live for fight Soaring high and dancing on the stars And we meet our destiny in time Chorus Verse: See this world in a broken crystal ball Look deep inside and the truth you will find We all lose our way But we still carry on all through our lives Chorus: Listen to the secrets of the mystic sea of wonder Then you will see that all your dreams come true On and on we will go To the land of these miracles

Verse: Sunrise, and all our hopes and dreams They lay before us Herald to a world of doom Dancing in the sunlight Feel the rays of love consume A final destination Cloudless sky at noon Bleeding hearts in tune Chorus: Sing a tale of mourning All the pain in life will come to pass Midsummer’s dream turned to dust Is this the beginning of the end Goodbye my friend Verse: Pale moon is rising soon The fear will burn inside you Lost alone and confused Winds of change break through Golden laughter true Wither and withdrew Chorus Bridge: Nightfall eternal Descending, internally screams (Seize the day, break away, seek the answer) In time all life will fade Before Midsummer Chorus

Verse Singing beneath the sky at sundown Sonnets tell the tales of renown Words caught on a breeze of sorrow And the lucid melody follows Pre chorus Thoughts trapped in the wind Blown far away, lost as a whim Over seas to distant shores One more rhyme, fables of war Chorus In the end of time we sing the song to end it all Fate. Love. Death. and Hate. words lay unbroken Verse Venture on the road far traveled As the tale begins to unravel Scenes portrayed by a tongue impassioned Of a journey misled and blackened Pre chorus Thoughts trapped in the wind Blown far away, lost as a whim Over lands and home to thee Tale of a fate that’s meant to be Chorus (repeat) Verse Whisper of tragedy woes and passion Spreading words of deeds turned ashen Recalling the nature of man is unsound Flawed and plenty of foe abound Verse Kings destined to save the crown, Rather leave the land unbound. Heroes fight for our way of life, Let us share in their glorious strife. Pre chorus Thoughts trapped in the wind, Blown far away, lost as a whim. Over seas, to distant shores, One more rhyme, fables of war. Pre chorus Thoughts trapped in the wind, Blown far away, lost as a whim. Over lands and home to thee, Tale of a fate that’s meant to be. Chorus In the end of time we sing the song to end it all. Fate, Love, Death, and Hate, words lay unbroken.

Far from the reaches of mountains and seas In the land of the mystical cold running streams Whispers and echoes around Calling my name here in this woods Deep, deep in the night The magic and power of spirits arise before your eyes And you will know The truth you believe will be real right before you The sun will set and the woods come to life In the valley of the true and the free Where the birds fly high as the wind blows through the trees The leaves of the autumn and rite of the spring Is the light that shines on these woodland nights Dark clouds and from the stormy skies Fall the rain waters pure to the infant seeds of life In time the world will set things right As the years go by on these woodland nights Search for an answer search all you like To the call of the wild, the wolf's mighty cry Nightfall will come and we shall be one For one final day, and one hour more (Forever more) Far, far on the road Together I want you to be with me Right here by my side And you will know the magic and power of love lies before you The sun will set and the woods come to life And far from the reaches of the mountains and seas In the land of mystic cold running streams We all see the sunrise as the world comes to life As the years go by on these woodland nights
