Lanegan, Mark - Emperpor Lyrics

My favorite voice in music today.

video is a total shit

I went on T almost 6 years ago and now I'm a baritone. Lanegan has been so fun to sing along to, especially this song.

Could you explain what "went on t" means? Thanks!

@Şah İsmayıl Xətai testosterone.

@Jonathan Hartmann so did Asche became a ftm? Woah m8...

@Şah İsmayıl Xətai it's possible. Don't want to assume, could also of had a growth disorder or testosterone deficiency. Would have to ask op.

@Jonathan Hartmann so it doesn't necessarily mean its a case of ftm. Thank you, I'm not a native speaker and have trouble this kind of stuff ))

I was in that park when a strange guy sat right next to me listening to Old Swan. I memorized a line so I could google it. I happened to discover a voice who I seem never to get tired of. Mark Lanegan is just perfect.

император внешне весьма напоминает одного там славянского царька...

Do not understand why Josh homme is not credited for the guitar section

who plays this track is Alain Johannes

Thanks to RIDE YOURE FUCKING BIKE ( a film of fox mountain bike )

One of the best artist ever!

Does have a certain 'Dandy' quality.

Emperor

I awoke in fright
No love, no one to save me
Night after night
So lonely, lonely baby
Why can't I get right?
All these demons to enslave me
Who is left to fight?
Just the emperor
Just the emperor
Just the emperor

On the water still
My boat violently shaking
I need another pill
Another bitter pill to wake me
Upon the window sill
The cat silently quaking
Who is left to kill?
Just the emperor
Just the emperor
Just the emperor

The battlefield is crossed
The flag and castle falling
Is the army lost?
Command no longer calling
Into an early frost
A few survivors crawling
Who could know the cost?
Just the emperor
Just the emperor
Just the emperor

love this song so much and so strong live like in Antwerp https://someonebangingonmydoor.wordpress.com/2017/11/27/mark-lanegan-band-trix-antwerp/

Dandy Warhols - Get off

Sounds like Dandy Warhols -get off

The legendary voice is back!! But what's the video about? And what country does it refer to?

Who directed the video?

Great musician you are mark

Оу, чёрт! Я конечно не критик, поправьте меня, это чёрт возьми "Йа". Ругать можно за недостоверные костюмы, ну уж извините, культ войны - это наша фишка, зачем же разбираться в чинах несуществующей страны, бесполезная архаичность.

Where the kid go?

Конец клипа изменён там у капитана ввс этот пидор отсасал!

If Tom Waits got singing lessons

Nice song, even I would prefer a rockier song.

Excelso.

ooooo just the emperor

Все клево, только The Dandy Warhols - Get Off

Просто вставлю комментарий на русском

А я прокомментирую по-русски!)

а я тоже прокомментирую в ожидании московского концерта

Get this legend back on the next Queens record!

Fuck yes, and nick oliveri

His voice...His baritonal tone....The obscure presence of the man himself: I can't remember anything so close to the damnation of the french decadent poetry and, at the same time, so amazingly modern. Mark Lanegan is by far the Lautremont of our times. He is not an underrated musician: he is an artist who will probably escape from the contemporary crowd comprehension to became a milestone later. Anyway, long live the Emperor.

Great analysis. I agree.

Agreed, very well put

Vincenzo Pasculli,well your view on this subject it is pleasant,but an exageration,not even Mark is no so damn or decadent,like he or anybody else is far from be a Lautremont,and much more far of be a RIMBAUD.

He is a lyrical genius and, most definitely, under appreciated.

Has anyone else noticed that this song sounds exactly like a slowed down version of the Dandy Warhols' "Get Off"?

I noticed that too :)

It sounds a little bit like Get Off, but it's a blatant ripoff of Iggy Pop's Passenger.

My favorite Voice!!!

Hey, mine too !! My favorite artist of all time!

i saw he two days ago in nonantola italy for the first time and he was amazing, i love Mark lanegan

Ebby anche io, a Milano! Favoloso come sempre

per me era la prima volta ed essendo il mio "salvatore" per vari motivi è stato ancora più speciale adesso terrò quel ricordo per sempre sulla mia pelle perche ho il suo autografo sul braccio fatto da lui adesso tatuato *-*

I was there ...me to ... He saved many but who's gonna save him? ♡

Best male vocalist ever

?!?!?!

Layne Staley? Chris Cornell? Axl Rose? Sebastian Bach? Phil Anselmo?

Seriously? Axl Rose? Sebastian Bach?

Ahhh ❤️

number 4 woo hoo!

That voiceeeeee

Just as good live as it is on the record......First?

If a tour has 20 shows&20 songs on the setlist I feel like I've missed 380 brilliant, unique experiences. Sooooooooo goood live.
