Arthur and the sword

I played my poem (set to music), Avalon, to a friend who loved it. "Wow, that would make a great theme for an album", although similar things have been done before (Rick Wakeman anyone?) and then he found me some songs by Henry VIII (of the UK) covered by so many people/groups. Well, I loved the challenge. This is a taster of what may come, butthey may not all be classically inclined. In fact I covered this new song (lyrics written today 30th Jan 2025) in several ways from this, classical, to cinematic and alternative rock. I think I am going to enjoy this but can't put a definitive finish date on the projects as current projects must come first. I do love this and is the first time I have tried to use choral themed styling, etc; must try again soon. Arthur and The Sword - Lyrics On that fateful summer day Fate was about to play A trick on powerful men of war. In a kingdom so divided A legend had provided A magical way to chose the greatest King OF ALL In days of old, when knights were bold, A boy of humble birth, With heart so pure, and spirit sure, Would prove his royal worth. The sword of might, Set in stone so tight, Awaited one so true, With strength and grace, he'd find his place, And destiny pursue. Young Arthur came, with no acclaim, Yet courage filled his soul, He grasped the hilt, with iron will, And claimed his rightful goal. The sword released, the whispers ceased, A king was born that day, With Excalibur, he'd lead for sure, And light the righteous way
