    For the record, _that_ guitar solo is split between the two guitarists. _And Richaad did it by himself._

      Fun fact, that pac-man retro sound effect in the original is the sound of the lead guitarist breaking his whammy bar and a string at the same time, and he completed the remainder of the song with 3 strings and a broken whammy bar. They edited the sound to be a retro pac-man sound to fit with the song and distract people from it, so the guitarists in dragonforce are just as legendary imo. They just make more legends with every cover made of their song.

      I mean, it wasn't written for two people in the sense that it had to be played by two people. It was just played by two people by choice. Sam and Herman just take turns in pretty much all their songs, but each of them could play any of them solo if they wanted to.
      Not to diminish Richaad's skill in any way, it's still incredibly difficult to play.

    [Verse 1]
    On a cold winter morning
    In the time before the light
    In flames of Death's eternal reign
    We ride towards the fight
    When the darkness has fallen down
    And the times are tough, alright
    The sound of evil laughter falls
    Around the world tonight
    Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel
    Through the wastelands evermore
    The scattered souls will feel the hell
    Bodies wasted on the shores
    On the blackest plains in hell's domain
    We watch them as they go
    In fire and pain, now once again
    We know
    [Pre-Chorus]
    So now, we fly ever free, we're free before the thunderstorm
    On towards the wilderness, our quest carries on
    Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
    Deep inside our hearts and all our souls
    [Chorus]
    So far away, we wait for the day-ay
    For the lives, all so wasted and gone
    We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
    Through the fire and the flames, we carry on
    [Guitar Solo]
    [Verse 2]
    As the red day is dawning
    And the lightning cracks the sky
    They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
    With resentment in their eyes
    Running back through the mid-morning light
    There's a burning in my heart
    We're banished from a time in a fallen land
    To a life beyond the stars
    In your darkest dreams, see to believe
    Our destiny this time
    And endlessly we'll all be free
    Tonight
    [Pre-Chorus]
    And on the wings of a dream, so far beyond reality
    All alone in desperation, now the time has gone
    Lost inside you'll never find, lost within my own mind
    Day after day, this misery must go on
    [Chorus]
    So far away, we wait for the day-ay
    For the lives, all so wasted and gone
    We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
    Through the fire and the flames, we carry on
    [Instrumental Break]
    [Post-Chorus]
    Whoa-oh oh, whoa-oh oh, whoa-oh oh oh oh...
    Whoa-oh oh, whoa-oh oh, whoa-oh oh oh oh...
    [Guitar Solo]
    [Bridge]
    Now, here we stand with their blood on our hands
    We fought so hard now, can we understand?
    I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
    For freedom of every man
    [Chorus]
    So far away, we wait for the day-ay
    For the lives, all so wasted and gone
    We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
    Through the fire and the flames, we carry on

      When things were at their very worst:
      2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
      The first sign - the Earth will spin faster.
      The second sign concerns the sun, which will loom larger, brighter and begin to spin.
      Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
      Beaware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
      After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
      Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
      - will seem to rise from the dead
      - will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
      One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
      Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.
      - banking collapse was deliberately masterminded by the Antichrist
      - Antichrist will step in and create a false peace in the state of Israel by joining them with palestine in an unlikely alliance.
      - „He will recite extracts from My Teachings, which he will passionately proclaim from every secular stage in the world, until people sit up and take notice of him.“

    On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
    In flames of death's eternal reign we ride towards the fight
    When the darkness has fallen down, and the times are tough all right
    The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight
    Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel, through the wastelands evermore
    The scattered souls will feel the hell bodies wasted on the shores
    On the blackest plains in hell's domain, we watch them as they go
    In fire and pain, now once again we know
    So now we fly ever free
    We're free before the thunderstorm
    On towards the wilderness our quest carries on
    Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
    Deep inside our hearts and all our souls
    So far away we wait for the day
    For the lives all so wasted and gone
    We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
    Through the fire and the flames we carry on
    As the red day is dawning
    And the lightning cracks the sky
    They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
    With resentment to their eyes
    Running back through the mid-morning light
    There's a burning in my heart
    We're banished from a time in a fallen land
    To a life beyond the stars
    In your darkest dreams see to believe
    Our destiny this time
    And endlessly we'll all be free tonight
    And on the wings of a dream, so far beyond reality
    All alone in desperation, now the time has gone
    Lost inside you'll never find, lost within my own mind
    Day after day this misery must go on
    So far away we wait for the day
    For the lives all so wasted and gone
    We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
    Through the fire and the flames we carry on
    Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
    We fought so hard now can we understand
    I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
    For freedom of every man
    So far away we wait for the day
    For the lives all so wasted and gone
    We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
    Through the fire and the flames we carry on
