Ayreon - Into The Black Hole feat. Bruce Dickinson (Official Lyric Video)

Thanks for checking this out! To pre-order: I must say Into the Black Hole is one of my personal favorite songs on the Flight of the Migrator album. Particularly because of the amazing vocal performance of the mighty Bruce Dickinson. It was a true honor and pleasure for me to record one of my favorite singers of all time in my studio. I love the fact that his singing in this track is so different from the (often faster) Iron Maiden material. If you listen well, you can hear that in this re-mixed version I used some vocal lines that I didn’t use in the original version. I also think that especially the drums sound way more powerful than in the original version. Have fun exploring and let me know. Hope you enjoy this spacey video made by Dave Letelier and Wayne Joyner! Hugs from Holland, Arjen. LYRICS: “We have reached our first destination: the black hole in the Virgo cluster of galaxies. But what will we find inside? Its power is immeasurable. Our hopes and fears intermingle as we stand at the event horizon. Will its doorway transport us to our faraway planet Earth, or will its fury mercilessly tear us apart?“ A. THE EYE OF THE UNIVERSE A dark sphere surrounds us ... In the centre of the galaxy A hidden force has found us ... At the boundary of eternity Nothing escapes, not even light Beyond the mystical horizon We surrender to its might Gazing into the eye of the universe A deep roar is sounding ... As if the universe were crying My heart is pounding ... My every nerve is dying B. HALO OF DARKNESS I hear screams of fallen souls, sad cries of agony Within the void of this evil hole, deep inside the black Could it be my imagination, the mirror of my fantasy? A fear-induced hallucination Or is there no way back from the halo of darkness? Spirits - apparitions - misery - suffering Horrid dreams and dire visions rising up from the black Look away in disbelief, this cannot be happening The end has come, I bow in grief There is no way back from the halo of darkness C. THE FINAL DOOR Now silence devours us ... The calm before the storm Gravity overpowers us ... And leads us through the final door Feed me light, I’m the halo of darkness Feel my might, I’m the eye of the universe #ayreon #brucedickinson #waynejoyner #ayreonauts #blackhole #progressivemetal #progressiverock
