Band : Mr Bungle
Mr Bungle has changed the whole way I think about music and introduced me to lots of styles I didn't understand before.
Song : Master of the Wind (Manowar)
Maybe I should share the story with you. I was 14 perhaps, on the ninth grade anyway, and I was on this camp. Ummh...post-confirmation thing. Don't know if you guys have these things, but for those who don't know, confirmation is a christian thing almost everyone here go through, and if you want, you can participate some training after that, and then you can be a leader on confrimation camps. I don't do that shit in any way anymore, but at that age I was very christian.
So it was night, we were on this big cottage, girls and boys in the same BIG room. A bit earlier I had sat in a corner alone with my guitar, singing and playing Master of the Wind. I thought nobody listened. But soon someone (can't recall who) came and said "Why wouldn't you play us all the song you sang a while back there."
So I did. And they fucking liked listening to me singing and playing. The song itself became a big hit too, we played it on every camp to "kids", as we also used Amorphis' instrumentals for relaxing moments and so on....But the thing they wanted to hear me sing...it changed my life forever. I used to be shy as hell you know. I owe a lot to that particular song.
On the other hand it really can be quite bothering to have to sing wherever I go
Last year we were on this festival and it was 4 am and my friend came outside my tent when I was about to sleep, shouting "COME OUT AND PLAY MASTER OF THE WIND!!!!" And he wouldn't stop until I did
