Manowar mean it when they sing about the "House of Death" and how they will "Fight Until We Die," and that's why you should love them, warts and all. Fortunately, the disc has enough tracks that do reach higher decibels, including the last four and disc-opener "Call to Arms," that are more indicative of what made Manowar great, namely heavy riffs and heavier attitude that, even when embracing an ethos that many would be embarrassed about, still comes off sincere. In fact, too much of this disc relies on similar cheeseball balladry that, try as it might to be gallant and heroic, really comes off as self-parody. No matter how big a fan of the band someone might be, it's hard to take the operatic "Nessun Dorma" and succeeding power ballad "Valhalla" seriously, as they sound like something Spinal Tap would have thought up when not worrying about amps that went to 11. Some want to think hope is lost see me stand alone I can't do what others may want then I'll have no home So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high Hear this song of courage long into the night So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high Hear this song of courage long into the night And the wind will bear my cry to all who hope. Personaly because of both the meaning and the sound of it, It's my favorite song of their's.Like most latter-day Manowar outings, Warriors of the World is a mixed affair rife with all of the clichés that make Manowar either Gods or an amusing joke, depending on what side of the inner circle you reside on. It seems to really scare the beejesus out of armed resistance when you have a C 130 gun ship strafing you and blaring out warriors of the world at the same time.Īll you have to do is go to a Man O War concert to hear them speak about it. Brothers everywhere Raise your hands into the air Were warriors, warriors of the world Like thunder from the sky Sworn to fight and die Were warriors, warriors of the world If I should fall in. Sounds kinda hokey but the effect is quite good. As a side note, they (along with a few other metal bands) gave permission for the the allies to use this song on PA systems when going into battle. Here our soldiers stand from all around the world Waiting in a line to hear the battle cry All are gathered here victory is near The sound will fill the hall bringing power to us all We alone are fighting for metal that is true We own the right to live the fight were here for all of you Now swear the blood upon your steel will never dry Stand and fight together beneath the metal sky Chorus.

Man O War has always been a big backer of the U.S. Waiting in a line to hear the battle cry. ( Heavy Metal i Rock ) by diplodo2 (Marcin) with 20 reads. Warriors of the World Here our soldiers stand from all around the world. Read Manowar- Warriors Of The World from the story Moje Ulubione Utwory. The song (although fantasy in nature) is about standing behind the troops that went to Iraq. Artist: Manowar Also performed by: Anna Maria Kaufmann Album: Warriors Of The World Traduceri: Bulgar, Croat, Finlandez, German, Greac, Italian, Maghiar 1, 2, Olandez, Român, Rus, Sârb, Turc Englez. Man O War and several other bands (like Iced Earth), did this from 2002 through 2004. This song was written to back the Iraq coalition. So there is the setting, but not the meaning. Man O War writes their music to the tune of fantasy warriors. Now we get to the overall meaning of the song. It's also a duel meaning, because it has to fit meaning of the ssong overall.
In warriors of the world the remark "I call them out and charge them all, with a life that is a lie" is that reminder. Warriors of the World United Lyrics: Here our soldiers stand / From all around the world / Waiting in a line / To hear the battle cry / All are gathered here / Victory is near / The sound will. Also along the way it been a staple for them to insert little reminders to the other groups that gave them a hard time ( groups like metallica) into their songs. They built their status up by producing their own stuff until they were noticed by a lable that stuck with them. So they did what few in the music industry can do. They were mistreated by other bands when they started and lables kept passing them by.
Man O War brought themselves up by the bootstraps so to speak. General CommentI guess you have to be a long time fan of the band to understand there work. Many stand against us, but they will never winĪnd in their final hour, they shall confess before they die!Īll who stand in my way, will die by steel We alone are fighting for metal, that is true
