Name: Fire It Up by James Bisset
Duration: 5 min 8 s
Description: A song about hope and desire, disappointment and determination. Oh, and open heart surgery.

A track for Grey Malkin. I've seen murals of La Danse Macabre in Tallin, Estonia, and remnants in Lubeck Cathedral (the original burnt in bombing in WW2). The Dance of Death, also variously called Danza Macabra (Italian), Dansul Morţii (Romanian), Danza de la Muerte (Spanish), Dansa de la Mort (Catalan), Dança Macabra (Portuguese language), Totentanz (German), Dodendans (Dutch), Surmatants (Estonian), is an artistic genre of late-medieval allegory on the universality of death: no matter one's station in life, the Dance of Death unites all. The Danse Macabre consists of the dead or personified Death summoning representatives from all walks of life to dance along to the grave, typically with a pope, emperor, king, child, and labourer. They were produced to remind people of the fragility of their lives and how vain were the glories of earthly life.[1] Its origins are postulated from illustrated sermon texts; the earliest recorded visual scheme was a now lost mural in the Saints Innocents Cemetery in Paris dating from 1424–25.

Danse Macabre  - Ken Patterson

A brand new song for Easter 2016 by Caedmon. A 5/4 chorus leads to 4/4 verses based upon the ancient text 'The Dream of the Rood'.

Dream of the Rood

A song about hope and desire, disappointment and determination. Oh, and open heart surgery.

Longstanding member of cult folk-rock group Caedmon, going solo with that electric guitar and impossibly catchy, clever songs.
