[Orkide]

The moor

"In the pouring rain, nothing is the same."

 

[KjeXXXer]

can ye guess it? can ye? can ye?

that's right, The Grand Conjuration.
but R/HF and Deliverance are great too..

 

[Loeben]

Serenity Painted Death
White faced, haggard grin
This serenity painted death
With a halo of bitter disease
Black paragon in lingering breath

And next in normal voice.

Saw her fading, blank stare into me
Clenched fist from the beautiful pain

Back to pure rage...

Darkness reared its head
Tearing within the reeling haze
Took control, claiming my flesh
Piercing rage, perfect tantrum
Each and every one would die at my hand
Choking in warm ponds of blood
At last, weak and torn, I went down
Drained from strength, flickering breath

Cue awesome solo and finish in normal voice

Came with the moon
The wayward in concious state
Flanked and barred in destiny's end
Underneath with hope in laches
Swathed in filth, any would betoken
Starlit shadows on the wall
Finally there to collect me
From the bowels of sin

So I got carried away and turned lines into songs...

Master's Apprentice
pacing roads unknown
searching for a new home
desert in my eye
barren lands inside

The ending to end all endings...

pacing roads unknown
searching for a new home
desert in my eye
barren lands inside

I like the sounds of those ones. Pity the lyrics are total shit and a blatant use of the synonym generator.

[FuneralPortrait]

The 3 part harmony clean vocals in Funeral Portrait;
'And you are just like them all
Stained by the names of fathers
I'm meeting my downward fall
Leaving the throes to others'

 

[Rotten Flesh]

Growl:

Deliverance:

...Received no warning, from nothing to a life code...​

When:

...This day wept on my shoulders, Still the same as yesterday
This path seems endless, body is numb, The soul has lost its flame​

Clean:

Credence:

...captured by the night...​

Hope leaves: The whole ****ing song!

 

[EasyMoney]

Has no one said "eerie circles above the water" in Amen Corner....That is the signature MAYH, or Opeth lyric in general for me.

By the way it has taken me forever to sign up on this forum. It is sad, Opeth are in my top 5 since 1999 and I have refrained becoming a l33t forum whore.

 

[EasyMoney]

Ah I see Affinityband has already quoted that lyric.

 

[vashts80]

I love the Wilson-Wilson/Mike part in Bleak

Wilson: "Devious movement in your eyes"
Wilson and Mike: "Moved me from relief"

In fact, I love that whole song

 

[Braighs]

^

I too like the "eerie circles" bit
Mikael hasn't whispered since MAYH.
It was a good element. I don't see why he stopped.

more whisperings:

All your words are missgiven
You sleep in the light, yet the night and the silent water, still so dark
The evening trees moan as if they knew
At night I always dream of you

 

[NOONE]

But i love Mikes part in Ayreon's Human Equation, the best part is where he roars "You're better of deaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrgggggghhhhhhhhd!"

Which song is that?

It's from the song "Trauma".

I had that line in my head for a while and it was bothering me that I couldn't remember what Opeth song it was from. I spent 10 minutes reading through Opeth lyrics before realizing it was an Ayreon song!

 

[Dante's Inferno]

All clean parts of TDP is awesome.

Especially this one:
Pull me down again
And guide me into pain
And the following Ahhh's...

I'm very found of this one (Advent):
Shadows skulk at my coming
We survey the slopes

And this one (GOP):
Devil cracked the earthly shell
Foretold she was the one
Blew hope into the room and said:
"You have to live before you die young"

 

[all_sins_undone]

"Lepers coiled neath the trees
Dying men in bewildered soliloquys
Perversions bloom round the bend
Seekers, lost in their quest
Ghosts of friends frolic
under the waning moon"

^^ BWP. Best growl Mikael has ever done

Also the "Ghost Of Perdition, Saint's premonition's unclear, Keeper of holy hordes, Keeper of holy whores". Kicks ass

As for my favourite clean part, I love the chorus of "Godhead's Lament". As

Wow... umm... thats exactly what I think. Favorite heavy AND soft part. Anyways. Wow. Crazy. Good stuff.
