[Tobias Sammet:]
Like a wheel I keep on turning
Straight ahead, it's got me burning
the melody ? the dignity,
something is speaking to me
Night is cold and my soul is battered
Not afraid for the first time now that I realize
We coincide, I'll never belong to the tribe
And a song is calling me to this ship of fools
[Chorus:]
Been dying for a sign when faith has been on the line
When you find your love on wasted grounds
You're taking to the sound, it's shelter from the rain
[Michael Kiske:]
No return from the way I've chosen,
Cast away - chasing rainbows - condemn the lie
And how could I make god believe I'm blind
We create by intuition,
call it fate ? the tounge of angels in our soul
Feel it resound and carry you over the grind
All that's left is a song giving shelter from the rain
[Chorus]
[Bob Catley:]
It's a dark and stormy night,
Ain't it funny what it takes to read the signs?
But I'm always there, I am the footprints to your right
Man overlooked when riding high, young and blind
In your darkest lonely night, heed a voice to take you higher
Take you higher
As you stumble through the ruins, let the spirit take you higher
and a soul
[Tobias Sammet:]
Oh, and a song
I can hear a song
[Chorus x2]

Avantasia is a symphonic metal/power metal project created by Tobias Sammet, vocalist and frontman of the power metal group Edguy. The project's title, a portmanteau of the words 'avalon' and 'fantasia', describes 'a world beyond human imagination' (a quotation from the booklet). Avantasia consists of a self-titled single, two full-length albums with the subtitle *The Metal Opera*, two EPs called *Lost in Space*, and the recently released *Scarecrow* trilogy. Sammet has involved numerous guests in the project, including Oliver Hartmann, Michael Kiske, Kai Hansen and Jorn Lande. Avantasia is considered one of the most important projects in the symphonic metal genre, appreciated for its epic melodies, fantasy lyrics and high-quality production. Among the most representative tracks are *The Great Mystery*, *Dying For An Angel* and *Starlight*.

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
