Avatar - The Eagle Has Landed Lyrics






Cut through the clouds with the speed of a demon
I am as I was as I will be
Lord of this world can you hear me? I'm screaming!
God above all things beneath me

Oh! Ah ha ha ha!
What a sensation
What a sensation
Can you feel it?
Can you see what I see?
I'm drowning in lights
The lights

Ladies and gentlemen
Your hero has returned again
Everything is going to be okay-ay-ay-ay
Ladies and gentlemen
Your shepherd and your very best friend
Bow your head
The man is here to stay-ay-ay-ay

Pitiful one, you speak without seeing
Intruder, you came uninvited
The hunt has begun and soon you'll be bleeding
Stare at the night sky, ignited

Oh! Ah ha ha ha!
What a sensation
What a sensation
Can you feel it?
Can you see what I see?
I'm drowning in lights
The lights

Ladies and gentlemen
Your hero has returned again
Everything is going to be okay-ay-ay-ay
Ladies and gentlemen
Your shepherd and your very best friend
Bow your head
The man is here to stay-ay-ay-ay

Ladies and gentlemen
Your hero has returned again
Everything is going to be okay-ay-ay-ay
Ladies and gentlemen
Your shepherd and your very best friend
Bow your head
The man is here to stay-ay-ay-ay

    Moral of the story:
    Careful what you wish for because not all that glitters is gold.
    None of them were specific so dude gave them what they wanted not what they needed. He's playing a miracle doctor which was very common in the 19th and 18th centuries. Look at wishmaster the Djiin gave them their desires yet they weren't specific so it was a twisted gift.

    Avatar – one love❤️❤️

  21. B.... S....

    I love Avatar but I hate it when bands try their hand at "edgy political commentary".(Assuming the bald eagle and "screwing people over with different problems" metaphorically means what I think they do. My apologies if this is just folklore or whatever but it comes off as kinda pretentious regardless with its' seemingly blatantly obvious symbolism!) Yeah,people dick each other over. It has happened before "America" and will continue to happen after America. Everyone thinks they're group is "self righteous and good' and everyone else is "teh bad". I mean look at Germany during World War II or look at China even now and how they use surveillance, brutality from corrupt police, and a "social point punishment/reward system" to keep people in line. Then there was the South Africa incident in which white farmers were massacred. Before we came along Native Americans were already fighting each other. Lastly the EU is utter shit and their "open borders" policy has hurt far more people than it has helped. (Both on the immigrant/migrant side and the local civilians side. Yeah,some cultures actually CANNOT get along,what a shocker,amirite? Get ready for all that "cultural enrichment!" Good ol rape,child grooming,tossing gays from roof-tops, and murders committed over dumb barbaric religious doctrines,etc.! ) Humans are just assholes and not all assholes come from the same place. A more realistic depiction would have been all these represented "groups" already making deals then backstabbing each other when convenient instead of only one group being the dick-heads to everyone else.

    B.... S....

    You sound so butt hurt by this it's funny. If you don't like politics maybe stop listening to bands that make political songs? Do you only mind songs that can be interpreted as anti american? You probably like those that agree with your views. Almost every country in Europe has eagle as a national animal. It can be interpreted as government or state in general. I don't know what you imagine it means because it's pretty much up to interpretation. BigPharma? Snake Oil? Idk. And of course you must talk about immigration when you talk about EU. Pretty bold for you to criticize Avatar for bringing up politics and then immediately bring up politics. We in EU are just fine for now. Keep destroying climate and you will see real immigration crisis.

    B.... S....

    @Gabrielle Steinman I could flip it. Do you only like songs that are anti-American? And your voice isn't the voice of every European. I mean it's great "you're" fine but that's "you" as an individual. We can speak for ourselves but not others. (And there are plenty of videos on youtube with Europeans complaining about the state of things in their own countries,including being unhappy with identity politics,gender studies,censorship,political correctness,and open borders.)

    Hell, I like Avatar a lot but to be a fan do I have to kiss their asses and absolutely "love" everything they do? In my day we called such behavior that of a sycophant and a poser. "Be a fan" but never give up your capacity to think critically.

    Now assuming this all really is just some folklore about an owl warring with an eagle as some have suggested you have my apologies. But I don't see "no owl" and the eagle in question was represented as a bald eagle. That's very specific.

    And yeah, I am a bit patriotic. Not saying America is close to goddamn perfection but I enjoy living in a 1st world country where we can tell our government officials to fuck off in general conversation or I can say an offensive joke or recant lyrics in a rap song without being asked for "A license gov'nor!" or immediately being thrown in jail.

    B.... S....

    @Ben Sprague That is because this is just one of the songs of the album ("Feathers & Flesh") telling the story, this song specifically introducing the character of the Eagle. (It's the third track, right after the one introducing the Owl: "House of the Eternal Hunt")


    I think you have to remember that a song can be interpreted in many different ways. In fact, Johannes said in an interview that when making their music videos, the band deliberately avoids depicting the literal happenings of the song in the context of the album, so the band may explore whatever meanings it may contain.


    Perhaps "The Eagle Has Landed" is indeed about American interventionism... And I have to ask: is that really a big deal? Listening to it with the idea in mind, I can't help but laugh at myself. It becomes a song that paints a lament in parody, a catchy tune to sing along as a reminder! My country ain't perfect, and this very well hangs a true issue looking to be solved... Because, we can do better, ya know?

    B.... S....

    @HFx10 Ah,thanks for clarifying! I didn't know this song was one of many in a whole story thus I'm only getting a piece of it. It certainly makes sense.

    As for "American interventionism" I hate it too. I think the conflict in the Middle East is one we should have withdrawn from long ago as it has been going on since I myself was a teenager in the 90's. I just wish we could "let it go". As for our recent problems with The Mexican Crime Cartels? That issue is closer to home so we might be forced to do something regardless.

    My only point was no country on earth is perfect and we've taken our turns dicking each other over since time immemorial. It's not just one "evil league" responsible for all the world's ills.

  22. J.... C....

    I started playing hollow knight a couple months after finding this band and now this whole album just makes me think of that game.

  23. D.... ....

    i like how the lady in the fancy hat is the only one that looks at him like "bruh what the fuck are you wearing bro"

  24. A.... s....

    so fucking cool🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒

  25. C.... R....

    Can I see a cast list of this video?

  26. �.... �....

    Просто чудееесный клип. Приветик из России. ^^

  27. F.... g....

    What a sensation 😍

  28. I.... L....

    i think the video is about the united states, they go to somewhere they "fund" the place but in the end they are just toys to the government, thats what he means by the eagle, the symbol of north america the bald eagle.
    as examples i think of the oil wars in the middle east.

  29. h.... b....

    This song makes me thing of Red Dead Redemption 2 and the shit tons of Miracle Tonics you drink.

  30. A.... S....

    My life has found meaning since I discovered these guys!!!

  31. R.... R....

    Johannes is king even compared with Marlin Manson 😍

    Only thing I didn't like was that the guy giving his heart had the wound on his abdomen instead of his chest. Solid work otherwise.

    B.... D....

    That was probably intentional, I don’t think they would make that kind of mistake. Why they did that is debatable, though. Maybe a joke? Or maybe the guy couldn’t break the ribcage and had to reach the heart through the stomach. Or maybe there’s a hidden meaning. Either way, it was a fun little detail.

    B.... D....

    @Aitana Cruz Ok, that's a solid point. Imagine the agony of getting his heart in such way. On that note they always said a way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

    B.... D....

    @Binary Dark It's true but pulling your heart out is painful no matter how you do it, and in this case the man didn't seem to care about the agony.

    B.... D....

    @Aitana Cruz I can imagine. Although perhaps the reason he seems apathetic about his injuries is that the process surpassed his pain threshold. Just a theory, I don't believe I ever had that sort of damage done to me to attest to it.
