Rhapsody Of Fire - Flash Of The Blade Lyrics
As a young boy chasing dragons with your wooden sword so mighty
You're St. George or you're David and you always killed the beast
Times change very quickly
And you had to grow up early
A house in smoking ruins and the bodies at your feet
You'll die as you lived
In a flash of the blade
In a corner forgotten by no one
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
One man, and his honour
The smell of resined leather
The steely iron mask
As you cut and thrust and parried at the fencing master's call
To fear no mortal man
And now you'll wreak your vengeance in the
Screams of evil men

Rhapsody Of Fire Flash Of The Blade Comments
The best cover is Avenged Sevenfold :3
ficou foda!!
this made me diamonds and cry at the same time, this is the last song of the last album of the original rhapsody, and it breaks my heart (but i love it)
First they have us an outstanding cover of Manowar's Power of Thy Sword then they outdid that with this.
God bless Rhapsody of Fire!
This is like....the coolest album cover ever with a unicorn on it haha
Anyone who legitimaly says the A7X cover is better than this or the original is just plain out of their minds.
Strider Zero are you actually fucking retarded, maidens is the best and a7x is good af, this guys accent fucks it up
This would work for a Lodoss War amv for Parn.
Une plutôt bonne reprise pour un titre méconnu - et pourtant excellent - de Maiden !
Awesome álbum, awesome band!!
a7x.....thats all to say
juana valerio SHIT..... That's all to Say.
IRON FUCKING MAIDEN
Só Lione mesmo pra aguentar a responsa de cobrir o Dickinson.
Kinda sad that the most memorable song from this album is a cover. Certainly better vocals than the original though.
better than bruce? you must be joking
heroes of the waterfalls kingdom
You seriously think From Chaos to Eternity isn't memorable? Aeons of Raging Darkness? lol
six feet under did it better
six feet under's was worse than a7x's lmfao
at least avenged tried to do something different...
Probably.
6991Jon I would love that
you must be musically ignorant if you don't notice any differences.
MeloDeath86 Wow. The dumbest comment I've ever seen...
They did domething different, also worse.
Maiden of fire !
Süper!
Definitely fits for The Undertaker theme😂 it has the sound idk what to call
This sounds ten times better than the A7X version.
Well, the lyrics weren't changed. Avenged kinda pissed me off with that.
+Calleb Drow Agreed
lie again
Flash of the Blade is one of my favourite Iron Maiden songs and Rhapsody of Fire is one of my favourite bands. So... this is nice.
Oh man, perfect!!! Iron and Rhapsody
Mas alla de la version, hay que darle la derecha a cualquier banda que interpreta un tame de MAIDEN. significa que esta mas vigente que nunca. Maiden existe y seguira existiendo. y la version esta buena.
This is awesome , but i was expecting something more from Rhapsody , the best cover of this song is the one Avenged Sevenfold did , but none is better than the original.
I don't feel like a7x was able to really capture the "power" of the song. Power metal should stay power metal. They still did awesome though, really tough song to do for other bands not of this genre.
Erm Maiden are NWOBM not power. Power got it's inspiration from NWOBM.
guessing by "power" he didn't mean power metal, but the actual power of the song
Me gusta mas como la toca rhapsody q iron maiden
killer cover
my two favorite bands Avenged Sevenfold and Rhapsody Of Fire doing the same song... SO MUCH WIN
It's good, but not as A7X's cover ..
It really sounds like the original,
and A7X took it to a far cry world
WhiteFox are you serious? Avenged sevenfold kept it the same just added shitty vocals
Avenged sevenfold and this band, each cover doesn't sound any better than the other. Covers are not made to sound almost similar to the original they are made because the band that makes the cover enjoys the originals music and want to play that song, not to 1 up the other. In my o.p that is.My favourite to listen to is still the original because it's the first I heard
Think before you speak, you just insulted what probably is the best Power Metal band (after Helloween just because they created it) and one of the few bands that can actually make an awesome cover and match Bruce Dickinson's highs. Give a listen to them, insulting something without knowing it just makes you sound like an idiot.
From a die hard Maiden fan......I like this version better. Rhapsody of fire is an insane band that deserves almost as much respect as Iron Maiden (without maiden they wouldn't be here), still I like this version better and it's much better than A7X even though I like their version too.
Respect, this band has been around longer than you have been alive
much better than avenged sevenfold cover ;)
it's so quintessentially Iron Maiden, but so very Rhapsody as well, great cover, really
Dat voice... Damn, I've found a new band to listen to.
Its like this song is made to be covered, AX7 and Rhapsody do insane covers of this song, and of course the original is awesome as well
COMBO BREAKER to Avenged Sevenfold's cover lml!
The difference between Iron Maiden's, Rhapsody of Fire's, and Avenged Sevenfold's version of the song is the accent it's sung in (there's a couple other minor things but that's the big one). So your favorite version is gonna be the accent you like best.
Personally i like Avenged Sevenfold's best, but that's just me. I do like Rhapsody of Fire's intro best though.
Still a no.
i wasnt asking bro
Check out my cover of this!
If you are talking about styles this cover as well have the classic Rhapsody style, style which I have to say, I like way more than the Avenged one, it's a more original style, also the music and the vocals are superior, anyway this is just my opinion, music is about tastes, so you can't say a song is better than other just that you like it more, just sayin'.
P.S: Sorry if I wrote anything wrong my english is not very good :P
P.S.S: I find A7X cover pretty good too
Its the Italian.. Defiantly the Italian
Haha, one of my favorite Maiden songs. It is underrated, seriously underrated... thanks for the awesome cover!
Instead of fighting which cover is better, we all should agree that Iron Maiden made this masterpiece
Debating between this cover and A7Xs would be fun but I couldn't really compare. Both offer something different while mostly keeping the Maiden feel imo. Both covers are great. For this one in particular, the added synth and keyboards imo make the song feel a bit more epic.
@ChaosSwissRoll
@DarthKnightmare
@JonnyGR04
I believe you are mistaken. Avenged Sevenfold's cover is, pretty amazing. You may not like it simply because despite it being a cover, it still displays the Avenged Sevenfold style, and that's why I find it to be the best cover.
The keyboard is a nice addition.
Well, it is Rhapsody. Every person in the band is more talented at their individual instruments than the members in Avenged Sevenfold. Fact.
yeah, but the original is the best!
@NiggeliNG @wbysniper check out the videos i have made on my page.
@NiggeliNG agreed. but the guitar work cant compare. fabio's voice is sick.
@wbysniper i just think that fabio sings the chorus much better than bruce
@NiggeliNG it is a good cover dont get me wrong. but maidens cant be beat
@wbysniper i actually like this cover better than the original. fabio's voice is better than bruce's in the original version
this shit blows compared to Iron Maidens.
yo en lo personal ambas canciones son las mismas pero rhapsody of fire le dio una mejoria a la cancion no digo que una banda sea mejor que otra tocando, esas notas ya son de iron maiden, pero rhapsody of fire le dio su toque power a la cancion haciendolo que suene mas, como decirlo, ese toque que le mejora el sabor a las cosas, otros diran otra cosa por ser fans de iron mayden pero mirenlo asi, das un platillo y alguien le mete otras cosas, y acaso no mejoro el sabor?
@REVOisMYname avenged sevenfolds cover doesnt suck. its a great song and i dont blame them for wanting to play it. dont be a dick
@MetalZWakEGuitaR the avenged sevenfold has no vibrato in his voice, he sucks
iron maiden is insuperable
but... good cover
There isn't enough bass in this rendition, but it's a solid cover nonetheless
His accent just ruins it for me. too bad.
they have certainly made this epic song into a Rhapsody of Fire version... awesome cover - and Iron Maiden is awesome... Both are awesome...
One of the best maiden covers i've heard in a long while
this is my favorite version of the song <3
best song ever made
@Dalefan726 You're an idiot. According to your "logic", because I have a negative view on something means I'm jealous of it? The same logic can apply to you: because you commented negatively on me, you are jealous of me. Bye bye, fanboy.
@Aeolianshredhead someone sounds jealous to me
@destructionman1 A7x are pussy emo sellouts. Their vocals are demonstrably emo as are their lyrics. Emos have no place in metal as it allows mainstream sensibilities to saturate the genre. Necessary hate in fact.
@Aeolianshredhead Unnecessary hate. Both those bands, and Maiden, are different in so many ways.
@Aeolianshredhead unnessecary hate ryt der, the "mighty Rhapsody" talks about riding towards dragons all the time. Pretty faggy, this band is my 'guilty pleasure'.
This is infinitely better than Avenged Sevenfold's pitiful cover. Fabio Lione fucking dominates that pussy emo fag M Shadows. Fuck anyone who defends A7x over the mighty Rhapsody.
Esto es realmente precioso n_n
WHAT THE HELL!!!!
this is one my FAVORITES songs from The Irons!!!
Go Rhapsody!!
Awesome cover!!
=D
AWESOME halloween style rhapsody
AWESOME COVER! my congratulations tu Rhapsody :D
Nice. My one of my favorite maiden songs being exellently covered by one of my other favorite bamds :)
@SurvivorsOfTitanic I'm not trying to insult anything or anybody. I apologize if I have offended you or anyone else. I just forgot to say that it was my opinion. Peace out.
@AntonAdalsteinson
They're clearly an alternative metal band. And who cares if they didn't? At least they know how to write original songs and play instruments unlike certain unnamed pop artists. Of course you're free to have an opinion, but I'm just getting sick of metal heads insulting other bands that don't even deserve to be hated (ie. Dragonforce). And furthermore, why would you waste your time insulting a band you don't like rather than praising a band you do like (in this case Rhapsody)?
@SurvivorsOfTitanic Avenged Sevenfold hardly even counts as a metal band...
@Fuckavengedcockyfold Rhapsody of Fire has always been legendary, but I agree. This cover is awesome, but can't be compared to Iron Maiden.
Everything > Avenged Sevenfold
@Metalink187 yeah :p \m/
@xXxXLoveMetalxXx This cover kicks ass. End of the line. ;)
@FrozenMermaid666 yeah, can't agree more with you. i bet more than 60% of this video's comments are about people arguing about how bad this cover is compared with the original..unfortunately not everyone is open minded like us :)
This cover OWNS the cover of Avenged Sevenfold. Just the Lione's voice is enough humiliation...
@FrozenMermaid666 i agree with you. people think that covers are very bad compared with the original tracks. but with this song we see that this is absolutely not true :) covers can be as good as the originals
excellent cover. Loved it! ^^
I bet they saw Avenged's cover and just went "Wtf is this shit? I bet we could do it way more justice. . . "
@brando210387 ma vai a pulire le orecchie ai somari..
As great as the original!
2nd solo got the symphonic turilli style, more than the first one
Not as good as Iron Maiden of-course, but still, who has the voice of Bruce Dickinson?
As always , Rhapsody takes an awesome song and turns it up to 11. Kudos, Rhapsody of Fire, Kudos.
YEAAAAAAh
Total eargasm XD
