Spinal Tap - Stonehenge Lyrics
In ancient times
Hundreds of years
Before the dawn of history
There lived a strange race of people - the druids
Or what they were doing
But their legacy remains
Hewn into the living rock of Stonehenge
Stonehenge - where the demons dwell
Where the banshees live
And they do live well
Stonehenge - where a man is a man
And the children dance
To the pipes of pan
Stonehenge - 'tis a magic place
Where the moon doth rise
With a dragon's face
Stonehenge - where the virgins lie
And the prayer of devils
Fills the midnight sky
And you my love
Won't you take my hand
We'll go back in time
To that mystic land
Where the dew drops cry
And the cats meow
I will take you there
I will show you how
And oh, how they danced
The little children of Stonehenge
Beneath the haunted moon
For fear that daybreak might come too soon
And where are they now, the little people of Stonehenge?
And what would they say to us if they were here tonight?

Stonehenge! Commercial #5… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KR5eV0e-pKQ
lol, reminds me of the simpsons episode where these guys did a cameo. and there was that cliche about how in the 80s fans were so fanatical about their rock stars. and these guys did the demon horn salute while going "druids!" and the fans did it back at them
MU brought me here.
And the cats meow
The beat part is that they are actually playing and kick some ass 🤘🤘🤘
Was this at the jazz blues festival or at the blues jazz festival?
We're very big in Bulgaria
I know a lot of guitar player s make faces when they play, But those guys must really play in real life cos I can't cope with those faces they're pulling,Fukien hilarious,best film ever
Nobody knows who they were. Or...... what they were doing.
XD
Just went there today with my wife on our honeymoon.
No one knows who they were...or what they were doing.
Your Playing Jazz Twits.
No we're not doin fackin stone enge!!!
"And the Cats Meow"
It was almost crushed by a dwarf
Nigel's singing is what angels sound like
In ancient times
*Making a big thing of it would have been a good idea*
The peak moment of the greatest comedy of all-time.
The drummer wearing the mask cracks me up🤣
Had to have a look at this again. Hilarious. Spat out my morning coffee. 😂🤣
never gets old - like Stonehenge itself
It looks like a goddamned lucky charm! XD
I recall an interview with Geezer where a recounts a similar thing happening to Sabbath, only in reverse. They wanted a Stonehenge 30 feet across, and the builder made it 30 meters. It could not fit into the venues they were playing in at the time.
Stone'enge.
Not only one of the best scenes in the film, its brilliant writing
For all their crassness and childishness, this song shows that they’ve genuinely got talent when they try.
Their playing an amazing set and Nigel is shredding on the mandolin, then down comes the tiny Henge prop. They all look defeated-even at their best they can’t catch a break!
I hear Styx in this song. Is it just me?
This is how many people legitimately like spinal tap's music.
⬇️
No One Knows
Who They Were
Or What They Were Doing ,
But Their Legacy Remains .
Supernatural anyone??
No ones know who they were, or what they were doing.
Their faces are priceless when that thing comes down
The film only gets funnier ever time I watch it
Stonehenge, where a man is a man
TRIGGERED!
Sick song to be honest.
I played this song with a 2-foot replica of Stonehenge I made out of styrophome sitting on the drum riser. Killed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The greatest fictional band in Rock & roll history
Now I know where Nightwish gets all of their ideas from.
Smell the glove!
I've often thought this scene was a huge inspiration for Richie Blackmore's band Blackmore's Night.
Fuck the napkin!
This was the best 'Rock Music' pisstake ever devised! These guys just killed it! The argument scenes were worthy of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young!
an oh how dey donced
The beginning of the song is a total reference to Donavan's song Atlantis,. Only he was lame enough to do it for real. It's great when Spinal Tap does it though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAMYGzwUTK4
Lmao 🤣 I love it
The Simpsons brought me here....
hahahajahahwha love it
When the keys come in it’s as good as any rock song.
Только сегодня узнал, что это пародийная группа
I love the Roadie with the yellow cap and tee shirt
Cool guitar strap.
"Making a big thing out of it would of been a good idea"
A cricket bat solves all problems...
Mr Smalls, we're ready to audition bassists for Manowar now...
I'll bet the guys from Iron Maiden saw this & lost it laughing saying "Shit like this happened to US!!"
"No we're not fucking doing Stonehenge!!!"
fictional or real i love it!
actually... both taking reality and acted it on the specifics crowd
My favorite scene from Spinal Tap. And Nigel...😍
The Grateful Dead. Anyone?
Los busque por los simpson 😆
"Are we playing Stonehenge tomorrow night ? " , " !!! NO , WE'RE NOT PLAYING FUCKING STONEHENGE TOMORROW NIGHT !!!
I agree, where the cats meow is one of the finest lyrics ever.
cryiiiiiiinnngggg.....flippin hillarious
I worked as a roadie in the UK in the early 80's. This stuff is based on reality. You can't make this shit up. The rock music game is really this stupid.
Hundreds of years, before the dawn of history...
the part at the end is unironically fucking amazing
I have heard much worse rock songs from bands that (I think) were being serious. For example, Saxon's 'Strong Arm Of The Law' (about but being stopped and searched by plod): "The only speed we use is our cars". Lol!
all is all
Stonehenge (the cat's meow)
"where the dewdrops cry" :)
Didn't something similar happen to Black Sabbath? Something for the set got measured in inches but was built to the metric system measurements?
Where the dew drops cry, and the cats meow.
I actually think the song is kinda dope
I'd have to say this is my favorite scene in the movie but it's hard to pick. The looks on their faces and the argument back stage had me in tears the first time I watched it
Just came back from Salisbury and Stonehenge. Just saying.
I came from Supernatural!
"No one knows who they were, or what they were doing.." hahaha
Where the demons dwell!
Beginning of The Twilight zone!!
I just realize that Derek Smalls is the father of William Murderface Murderface Murderface.
Stone 'enge
This movie is gold.
2:17 Priceless!
The pipes of pan lmao
“Hewn into the rock of...Stone ’enge”. To give it its right proper Cockney pronunciation.
Good music and amusing movie, lick my love pump 😂😂😂
This is by far my favorite part of the movie.
1:04 - 2:04 FUCKING MASTERPIECE
Is this murder of the universe
That Stonehenge prop is the cat's meow.
Trump's wall!
Still better than anvil
_"No one knows...Who they were. Or...What they were doin'."_
Still better than Slipknot
"No one knows who they were, or what they were doing..."
This is every prog rock band of the 70's.
This movie looks fuckin’ hilarious, how is it that I am just discovering it now, over 30 years after its release??!! Well I wasn’t born when it came out, but still
The greatest moment in rock history
Can we just take a moment to acknowledge that in both this and Mighty Wind, a bunch of actors making spoofs of musical genres, made some damned fine songs in both.
