Blind Guardian - New Orchestral Song Sample Online


German power metallers Blind Guardian have posted a preview of the orchestral version of "The Bard's Song - In the Forest", which will appear on the upcoming release Memories Of A Time To Come, due out January 20th, 2012. More album details have been revealed here.

The band also commented: "'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the Twilight Hall Santa Guardian and his band of dark elves put the finishing touches on a gift for all the bad boys and girls in Blind Guardian land. Santa Guardian thought it was unfair that 'The Bard's Song - The Hobbit' was re-recorded for Memories Of A Time To Come but 'The Bard's Song - In the Forest' didn't get any special treatment."

"Using his own special brand of persuasion, Santa Guardian 'convinced' the band to make an orchestral version of 'The Bard's Song - In the Forest' for inclusion on Memories Of A Time To Come. Santa's gift to every Blind Guardian fan is a 95 second preview of this song. The whole Blind Guardian family wishes you and yours a very happy holiday season. See you in 2012!"

Music was my life, music brought me to life and music is how I will be remembered long after I leave this life. When I die there will be a final waltz in my head that only I can hear.

Omg lolz mad boner status. No but seriously, this was amazing; this is likely going to be the best album of 2012.

EDIT: Oh, I thought that this was an entire album if rerecorded songs; turns out only three are. Ah well.

I'm going to go take a few pills which will put me to sleep until January 20th, 2012 so that I can wake up and just listen to this album already!

Not bad, not bad. But I still prefer the original song.

It is humanity who must pay homage to the greatness of the Universe... not the Universe to the human narcissism.

It's unusual to hear Hansi singing whole song again
