Celtic Hard-Rock music, only original songs !
Story behind the song
I was always an admirer of the music of Angelo BRANDUARDI and I always liked specially the song "Il Signore Di Baux "... I recently learnt that an English version of the album "Cogli La Prima Mela" was recorded in 1980... As I always wanted to make an English version "Medieval-Rock" of this song for DERRING-DO, thanks to the help of the text already written by Keith CHRISTMAS "The Lord Of Baux", it was thus easier to me to make this "cover" about which I dreamed for several years... Here it is, enjoy !
Lyrics
* THE LORD OF BAUX *
(Keith CHRISTMAS / Angelo BRANDUARDI)
1) Overlooking the valley below
High on the edge of a mountain
Stands the mighty castle of Baux
A dark and cursed ruin
The echoes of a thousand knights
Come riding o'er the keepStone
And at their head with ghostly sight
Gallops the Lord of Baux
His spirit seeking rest...
2) On barren stones he built his lair
A monument to power
And he kept his bride a prisoner there,
Locked in the highest tower
Inside the fires were burning bright
With wine-lit eyes...
3) A-gleaming they sang, the battlements rang
With ballads of sword and long-bow
The bravest of all though sat before
So silent and cold the Lord of Baux...
4) High o'er the ivy-covered keep
The marching steps are ringing
And watching the birds fly to the sea
A sad-eyed girl is weeping
Never so kind and fair a maid
Never so sad a story
Slowly she pined her life away
Surrounded by...
5) His glory and fame, the travellers came
To carry the news for all to know
That always alone his face of stone
So silent and cold the Lord of Baux...
6) Overlooking the valley below
High on the edge of a mountain
Stands the mighty castle of Baux
A dark and shattered ruin
The echoes of a thousand knights
Come riding o'er the keepstone
And at their head with ghostly sight
Gallops the Lord of Baux...
