    ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄
    I was born in France, called the Maid of Orleans
    Led by the voices of the Saints
    I went to the Court dressed in men's clothes
    To save my people from the yoke
    I was given troops to destroy the English roots
    And to crown the Dauphin at Reims
    I'm not a man searching the glory
    I'm just the hand chosen to fight
    It's a long way to our freedom
    I was betrayed. I'm burning at the stake
    My own blood sold me in the battlefield
    Charles the King made no attemps to save me
    I won't be free till the day of my death
    The pyre is light. I see the end
    I'm not a man searching the glory
    I'm just the hand chosen to fight
    It's a long way to our freedom
    I was betrayed. I'm burning at the stake
    I'd rather die than live chained in this cell
    I hold to what I have already said
    I won't be free till the day of my death
    The pyre is light. I see the end
    I'm not a man searching the glory
    I'm just the hand chosen to fight
    It's a long way to our freedom
    I was betrayed. I'm burning at the stake

    I really didnt expect myself to like this, but her voice and the generic sound and the great story caught my ear. I cant help but dreaming away.. What a girl Joan of Arc was though. But it just shows how far determination and belief can get you. Though she was burned alive, she was only 19 years old and liberated more of France then any king ever could.

    • @R75423
      @R75423 5 років тому +4

      She was not determined and her beliefs made her a Saint. She was canonized in 1920. by Pope Benedict XV. and her trial was revisited already in 1456., twenty five years after her heroic death on stake.

      *****​ Alfred said in an interview that these new re-recordings are more a rock style version than a power metal version thats why the drums are "less" power metal even the whole new album Roberto didn't use china cymbals and the voice is in a lower tone cause thats his real singing when he joined the band he used to sing The new World, in the heart of stone in a high pitch live like Elisa used to. The solos are weak yes, cause Enrik in that time didnt record the solos was another member who already left the band many years ago. Enrik's solos are always weak and in an ugly tone

    • @IanHayes
      @IanHayes 6 років тому +3

      The re-recording is way too clean and pretty much robs all of the soul and energy from the song. The vocals are too soft and unemotional, and it's weird to hear a man singing the role of Joan.

    Born lowly Jeanne d'Arc daughter of a tax collector and farmer, who at the time was simply expected to marry and fade into obscurity. Yet to this day no one speaks of the lowly peasant girl Jeanne d'Arc who spent her life wishing for a prince charming to come. We speak of a girl who became a legend, we speak of the peasant girl who became St. Joan of Arc, we speak of the legendary Maid of Orleans, we speak of a patriot who united her nation and defied the might of England in Medieval France's darkest hour, and turned the tide of the Hundred Years War

    • @mikeshuba1000
      @mikeshuba1000 8 років тому +2

      +snakes3425 Pity about that whole Welsh longbow thing. That's why the "two finger salute" is the European equivalent to the American middle finger; the French would cut off the first two fingers of the right hand of any English archer they captured. They had the moral high ground by not executing prisoners but said prisoners would no longer be able to use a bow capable of putting a bodkin tip arrow through a French knight's armor at 300 yards. English archers would wave their fingers at French armies before engaging as a threat, basically meaning "I can use a 200 lb draw longbow, I have armor piercing arrows, and very soon I'm going to kill you with these two fingers."
      Seriously, look up the Battle of Agincourt.

    • @nutyyyy
      @nutyyyy 8 років тому

      +Mike Shuba That's a myth, why the heck would they bother performing a complicated operation of cutting off two fingers of a man that could more easily just be killed. Also arrows could rarely penetrate full plate harness, though they were certainly deadly against ordinary infantry in Gambesons or Aketins, or those clad in mail alone. If the Archer had good enough aim you could penetrate the gaps in the armour. In truth it was the English use of dismounted men at arms and better infantry tactics at a time when mountain Knights had lost their effectiveness, as well as superior leadership that gave them their victories during the hundred years war, though the longbow and the men who used them should not be scoffed at as it required a great deal of skill and practice as well as strength to use it.

    El cover que interpreto de helloween de la cancion halloween es increible, me gusta mas que la oriinal. Obviamente no es lo mismo interpretar una cancion ya compuesta por otro artista, que hacerle arreglos a la cancion. Igualmente increible esa version y Elisa Martin sin palabras.

    Spanish translation of the lyrics:
    (Traducción de la letra al español):
    Nací en Francia,
    fui llamada "La Doncella de Orléans".
    Guiada por las voces de los santos,
    fui a la corte vestida con ropa de hombre
    para salvar a mi pueblo del yugo.
    Me dieron tropas
    para destruir las raíces inglesas,
    y para cononar
    al dauphin (delfín) en Reims.
    No soy un hombre en busca de gloria,
    soy sólo la mano elegida para luchar.
    Aún falta mucho para (lograr) nuestra libertad,
    fui traicionada, estoy ardiendo en la hoguera.
    Mi propia sangre me vendió en el campo de batalla,
    Charles, el rey, no intentó salvarme.
    No seré libre hasta el día de mi muerte,
    la pira está siendo encendida, veo el final.
    No soy un hombre en busca de gloria,
    soy sólo la mano elegida para luchar.
    Aún falta mucho para (lograr) nuestra libertad,
    fui traicionada, estoy ardiendo en la hoguera.
    (Instrumental)
    Prefiero morir a vivir encadenada en esta celda,
    sostengo aquello que ya he dicho.
    No seré libre hasta el día de mi muerte,
    la pira está siendo encendida, veo el final.
    No soy un hombre en busca de gloria,
    soy sólo la mano elegida para luchar.
    Aún falta mucho para (lograr) nuestra libertad,
    fui traicionada, estoy ardiendo en la hoguera.
