Mind blown! Would love to hear how it went from this to the final cut, so different.

This is amazing. Like,...wow. i like this one just as much as the "final" versio, both work so perfectly... and yet such different feelings

I've always heard stories about how this song is related to Hansi in a personal sense as it was written when his father passed away but I never understand the connection lyrically from the version we all know, however when I listen to this demo I completely get it. This song is so sad, you can tell exactly what kinda mindset he was in and how that affected his writing. It is fantastic, totally relatable, and a look into his heart.

thanks for posting. I enjoy listening to the BG demo's- in my opinion the raw, unedited sound gives the song much more feeling. dont get me wrong, the studio recordings are still awesome.

Chorus 2: Lord why they take it away Far from the crowds Back to the ground the earth will say And the wind will tell it's tale Lord why they take it away Far from the crowds Back to the ground the earth will say And the wind will call his name Outro: I'm left in middle earth alone By the golden ring The runes are written down in it It's sad but true Now it's gone away This is what I understand, and I have no clue why Youtube deleted the word wraps of my post :-/

Verse 2: There's only one song, left when he die Tales of beyond what Lived far from here The bard's songs are finished Bear it in mind No one had answers the answer is time The story teller

Verse 1: Leave me alone Down at my own No one will know The bard but his song No one have seen And no one knows why Leave me alone in the shadows of time Leave my brother Chorus: Lord why they take it away Far from the crowds Back to the ground the earth will say And the wind will call its name Lord why they take it away Far from the crowds So far away And all the children cry

Outro: I'm left in middle of the lot By the golden ring The roots are written down and in It's sad but true Now it's gone away That's what I got, at least. There's that one line that doesn't make sense, but hey, that's what I heard!

Verse 2: There's only one song Left when he died Tales are behind what Lived far from here The bard's song's now finished Burning in mine No-one had answered "The answer is time" The story-teller Chorus 2: Lord why they take it away? Far from the crowds "Back to the ground" the Earth would say And the wind will tell his tale Lord why they take it away? Far from the crowds "Back to the ground" the Earth would say And the wind will call his name

Verse 1: Leave me alone Down at my own No-one will know The bard but his song No-one had seen And no-one knows why Leave me alone in the shadows of time Leave, my brother Chorus 1: Lord why they take it away? Far from the crowds "Back to the ground" the Earth would say And the wind will call his name Lord why they take it away? Far from the crowds "So far away" All the children cry

Even without understanding the song in its entirety. Am I the only one who thinks this lyrics is MUCH better than the final version?
