King Midas, a ruler known for his unsurpassed rose garden, finds a drunken, passed out Silenus (foster father of Dionysus). After taking him home, Dionysus tells King Midas he may have anything he wants in reward.
Midas wishes for anything he touches to become gold. However, this becomes a curse, after realizing he cannot eat, as food turns to gold as soon as it touches his lips. He ends up touching his daughter, turning her to gold.
I enjoy this song greatly, especially the new music video.
Ahh, another tale I am fond of...
