Feeling the march of the fury unleashed
Impaling the soldiers of God
Smell of sulfur hot on the wind
Left by the goatriders horde

The thundering roar of the cloven hoof
The goatriders' horse descends with the storm

I am eternal, I walk the night
I am the reaper of souls
Cold iron blades, they cannot stop me
Where I am from no one knows

I am in command
Impervious to fire, impervious to steel
Merciless vengeance dealt by their strike

Treachery stalking evil command
Cloven hoofed steed I ride
Armies of horns descend on the gates
Hatred burns their eyes

Impervious to fire, impervious to steel
Merciless vengeance dealt by their strike
Impervious to fire, impervious to steel

Walls of stone cannot stop them
Too weak are the spells of old
At the sound of their banshee cry
The hearts of all grow cold

Impervious to fire, impervious to steel
Merciless vengeance dealt by their strike
Impervious to fire, impervious to steel
Merciless vengeance dealt by their strike

Fueled by the fears of man
To slake the unquenchable thirst
I'm in command, I'm in command

I'm in command, I'm in command
I'm in command, I'm in command
The goatriders horde

    It's a song about a Horde, commanded by a horrible being who rides a Goat. Hence goatrider.

    It's also a tale of exploits, showing how the horde destroyed all in their way.

    Love the guitar, great single for the new album.

    i dont mean to be over analytical about this, but the devil has horns like a goat.... and it says impaling the soldiers of god.... so maybye they talking about some story where a satanic army is fighting a holy one, and the evil army is riding into battle on demons, which look like goats, and the song is from the point of veiw of the devil, cause it says im in command.

    I mean come on, riding a goat? your feet would drag on the ground, if youre allergic to wool ya sneeze and fall off, wool is itchy, and goats love to headbut. nuff said.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
