Númenor - "Stargazer" (Rainbow cover)

High noon,
Oh I'd sell my soul for water
Nine years
Worth of breakin' my back
There's no sun
In the shadow of the wizard
See how he glides,
Why he's lighter than air?
Oh, I see his face

Where is your star?
Is it far,
Is it far, is it far?
When do we leave?
I believe, yes, I believe

In the heat and the rain
With whips and chains
To see him fly
So many died
We build a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
Just to see him fly
But don't know why
Now where do we go?

Hot wind,
Moving fast across the desert
We feel that
Our time has arrived
The world spins,
While we put his dream together
A tower of stone
To take him straight to the sky
Oh, I see his face

Where is your star?
Is it far, is it far, is it far?
When do we leave?
Hey, I believe, I believe

In the heat and the rain
With whips and chains
Just to see him fly
Too many died
We build a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
To see him fly
But we don't know why
Ooh, now where do we go

All eyes see the figure of the wizard
As he climbs to the top of the world
No sound, as he falls instead of rising
Time standing still, then there's blood on the sand
Oh, I see his face

Where was your star?
Was it far, was it far?
When did we leave?
We believed,
We believed, we believed

In the heat and rain
With the whips and chains
To see him fly
So many died
We built a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
To see him fly

But why
In all the rain
With all the chains
Did so many die
Just to see him fly
Look at my flesh and bone
Now, look, look, look, look
Look at his tower of stone
I see a rainbow rising
Look there, on the horizon
And I'm coming home,
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
Time is standing still He gave me back my will
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Going home
I'm going home
My eyes are bleeding
And my heart is leaving here
But it's not home
But it's not home
Ooh

Take me back
He gave me back my will
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Going home
I'm going home
My eyes are bleeding
And my heart is leaving here
But it's not home
But it's not home
Ooh
Ooh
Take me back, take me back
Back to my home ooh, ooh, ooh

Númenor, ένα ακόμη συγκρότημα με όνομα εμπνευσμένο από τον κόσμο που δημιούργησε ο J.R.R. Tolkien. Μας έρχονται από την Σερβία κι αρέσκονται στο πομπώδες / συμφωνικό power metal με black metal "πινελιές" (κυρίως στα φωνητικά). Οι ίδιοι πάντως "υπογράφουν" ως "Epic Power Metal".

"Sword and Sorcery Metal" αποκαλούν το μουσικό τους ύφος. Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει τέσσερις "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους, τέσσερα EPs, τρία singles και δύο split (μαζί με τους Forlorn Wisp το ένα και με τους Advent Sorrow το άλλο).

Το ντεμπούτο τους ("Colossal Darkness" - 2013) θα επανακυκλοφόρησει τον επόμενο μήνα (Ιούνιο από την Elevate Records με δύο bonus τραγούδια - διασκευές. Η πρώτη αφορά τον ύμνο των Rainbow "Stargazer" και σας παρουσιάζουμε το σχετικό lyric video. (Η άλλη διασκευή είναι το "Flash of the Blade" των Iron Maiden.)
