Talking of covers
Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble of Shadows - Dio N'arap (Black Sabbath's Paranoid)
This is just fucking bizarre, but unbelievably brilliant.
"Finished with the dark side
If no longer helps me with my mind,
Still Saturn's rites connect us
Black-dressed I am falling back from time to time...
All day long I think of things
But nothing seems to satisfy,
I cannot bear the dead stand-still,
The blind search, unable to find my own life...
Can you help me?
Who will set me free?
I need someone to show me
The things in life that I can't find,
I can't see the things that make true happiness
I must be blind.
Make a joke and I will sigh
You might laugh but I will cry,
Happiness I cannot feel
And love to me is so unreal.
And so as you hear these words
Telling you now all of my state,
I tell you to enjoy life,
I wish I could,
Soon it might be too late...!!!"
And now I'm on to Tabor C'alan O'itana (A National Acrobat). Anna-Varney needs to release a whole disc of this shit.
