CMB - Weit Weg - by Rammstein CMBOfficial 2022-10-01 | Recorded two years ago, never had enough time to improve on the mastering. But it's a pity to throw it away. So we post it now, while trying hard to finish a new album, hopefully before the end of this year.Our blog: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comFB: facebook.com/CMBOfficial

CMB - Still Alive and Well (Cover) CMBOfficial 2021-08-11 | CMB is still here. After a (much too long) break, we're back. If you're tired of rap-pop, come over to the CMB oasis and take a break at the cool waters of clean 70's Rock.Olga couldn't be with us in the filming, although she is still alive... she is not too well (COVID). ;-(CMB web: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comfb: facebook.com/CMBOfficialMusic
CMB - Sonne (short version) by Rammstein CMBOfficial 2021-01-09 | Recently we have posted this on fb and had relative success with it. It's been kept unlisted for a while, so we make it now public on youtube.We've been quite inactive lately, but slowly we are working on a new short album, to be released sometimes this year. It will have a few good songs...Our site: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
Abyss dont look into - by CMB CMBOfficial 2020-08-01 | We make this song public now - better later than never. It's been released last year on our EP album 'Abyss'. For all our friends, this is a 'Hello', we've been inactive for a while, as a band, but we'll be back soon this year. To make it short: we've been really busy with other stuff - Stefan finished his first year in college, Olga won an essay contest in the state of Maine, Cornelia got a 2nd place, etc...More details will be written on our site, in a while.CMB site:: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comFB: facebook.com/CMBOfficialMusicOur Albums: childrenmedievalband.bandcamp.com
CMB live - Dark Ages (Medieval Light) CMBOfficial 2019-08-07 | Playing a gig in Maine, in front of a small audience. More details on our blog: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com/2019/07/30/the-farmington-gigThis song is from our great album "New Target" (youtube.com/watch?v=gvZAaIbg6dc). Interesting info - at this gig we played under a new name: Crossland Medieval Band.

CMB - My Parallel Universe - from the Abyss album CMBOfficial 2019-05-12 | CMB's latest EP album Abyss is available atchildrenmedievalband.bandcamp.com/. It is another step on the road of forging a new style - 'Tense Medieval Rock', representative for these 2020 years. The song 'My Parallel Universe' contains some of the important ingredients of the new style: calm tension, medieval flavor and original melodic lines. Also quite noticeable are the young drummer's complex fills executed during the chorus parts.CMB:Stefan - guitar, vocalOlga - keyboardCornelia - drumsOur site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comFB: http://facebook.com/CMBOfficialMusic
CMB - New Album - Abyss CMBOfficial 2019-05-04 | "(Don't Look Into The) Abyss" has been released as of today May 4th, 2019. Available at childrenmedievalband.bandcamp.comIt is a "medieval rock" EP with four songs. Original melodies and arrangements, also the lyrics hold a deep meaning and the songs are played with soul, albeit our mixing and producing (as usual) aren’t top notch.CMBStefan - guitar, vocalOlga - keyboardCornelia - drumsOur site: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB - Keine Lust (Rammstein cover) CMBOfficial 2019-04-29 | This is a COVER (remake) of Keine Lust by Rammstein! We do not own the song.We decided to use English lyrics for at least one reason: to make the R+ masterpieces more popular to English speaking audiences (most of which are trapped by the mainstream stuff). We also changed the song's meaning and made it into a protest song against liars (dishonest politicians, fake news, etc). So we are actually quite proud of our lyrics.Here they are:I feel kinda-lost x 4I'm feeling kind of lost because of liarsI'm kinda lost and burned by firesI always want the truth to hearBut all these liars have no fearIt's too much loss being lied againI'm lost not knowing whom to blameIs this a world of shameless lies?I'm kinda lost a truthful guySometimes I'm mad filled with disgustI don't like those who I can't trust - rahI feel kinda-lost x 3RAH! I feel kinda-lostI'm traveling and lost - guided by deceiversThe paradox of liars does brain feverWhen travelers meet a liarThey lose their way and land on fireIs this a world of shameless lies?I'm kinda lost a truthful guySometimes I'm mad filled with disgustI don't like those who I can't trustI want the truth to hearBut all these liars have no fearWhen I see their dirty tongues //outThen I feel hate and get mad, still so calmMe rest calm...CMB:Stefan guitar, vocalOlga - keyboardCornelia -drumsRecorded at Dima's Studio (Onesti, Romania) on April 4, 2019Our site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com

CMB - I was a Toiler on the Sea - by Stranglers CMBOfficial 2018-04-11 | The last of our "4-songs-acoustic-experiment". A cover of Stranglers - the most underrated rock band. In 40 years they made 40 great songs. "Toiler" is one of them.Stranglers is among our best favorite bands. The other 3 covers we made recently are: - a Beatles version of Mr. Postman (youtube.com/watch?v=_G4iBVb5R1w)- Badge by Cream (youtube.com/watch?v=QM1PJN4YV4g)- Spieluhr by Rammstein (youtube.com/watch?v=ka3YuBWkSlY)CMB (Children Medieval Band):Stefan - vocal, guitarOlga - violin, vocalCornelia - drum, vocalOur site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com

CMB - a Cream cover (Badge) CMBOfficial 2018-01-13 | An acoustic version of this Cream masterpiece. European electricity is 220V, so we didn't bring our equipment here. But we still accomplished this cover unplugged.CMB (Children Medieval Band):Stefan - guitar, vocalOlga - violin, vocalCornelia - drum, vocalOur site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB - Light Sabbath - from the New Target album CMBOfficial 2017-11-05 | CMB is listed under 'Neo-Medieval music', on Wikipedia, as the only USA band representative for this style. Here is one piece where CMB successfully blends hard-rock, hard-core and medieval into a unique new genre.Video made in March 2017, during the recording of the New Target album, recently released.Our site: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB Album Ad CMBOfficial 2017-09-06 | While visiting east-european country, inside former marxist block, Cornelia finds out that most radio stations are gross polluters. Listening to CMB is her only defense against 'earworms'. Fragments from CMB's new album are here: youtube.com/watch?v=gvZAaIbg6dcThe New target album can be found at http://www.nimbitmusic.com/childrenmedievalband and amazon.com/New-Target-Children-Medieval-Band/dp/B07584CQ9S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1505049076&sr=8-1&keywords=children+medieval+bandCMB site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB - just released new album - here are some fragments CMBOfficial 2017-08-29 | The "New Target" album is available at http://www.nimbitmusic.com/childrenmedievalband and amazon.com/New-Target-Children-Medieval-Band/dp/B07584CQ9S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1505049076&sr=8-1&keywords=children+medieval+bandThis is CMB's 2nd album, with ten original songs.

CMB - Medieval Light CMBOfficial 2017-04-17 | One of the ten songs from our upcoming album - "New Target" - to be released (hopefully) before September this year (2017). Watch also 'Tv-or-not-TV' (youtube.com/watch?v=Q5Ftcfai9cg).Due to personal issues we did the recording of 10 new songs, in a hurry. Still, this is going to be a major breakthrough – at least that’s what we hope. We know that the songs are very original, we’re developing a new style. Hopefully the huge crappy mainstream monolith will crumble a bit after the release of our swift and smart new compositions. Boy! We’ve got to brush up on our modesty…Okay, the songs are good, but the recording was rushed and details were missed. And it’s expected that the mixing and mastering is going to be a pain. So we don’t know for sure what the final product will sound like. Anyway, at least enjoy and spread around this video. It's a good concept.CMB (Children Medieval Band):Stefan - gtr, vocOlga - kbdCornelia - drumhttp://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB - TV or not TV (demo) CMBOfficial 2017-02-23 | This is a demo from our upcoming album 'New Target', supposed to be released sometime this summer.Lyrics:Tv or not Tv (Shakespeare?)Is that an addictionTo watch and learn what others say/doHow can you believe themWe have no clueWhy ye didn't learn from meI told you not to watch tvNow you got a dirty mind...Pixels under mal-laughThe healing potion made them dryThe poisoned vibes got flattenedBy heavy Sky.chorus...end = To clean the dirt easy't won't be-------------------------------------------------------------Children Medieval Band:Stefan - guitar, vocalOlga - keyboardCornelia - drum, vocalhttp://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB live - Money CMBOfficial 2016-08-09 | We make this public because it's a good one but very few came to see us. One of our live performances during this summer (2016). In the midst of all the media lies, here is a song about a simple truth: "we all need money". We think this is one of the most representative rock songs. Great riff, steady beat and rocky vocal. Written by Berry Gordy and Janie Bradford in 1959. A few years later Beatles made a strong version, with one of John Lennon's best vocals.More about our 3 live performances this summer: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com/2016/07/24/new-old-songsChildren Medieval Band:Stefan (14) - gtr, vocOlga (13) - kbdCornelia (10) - drmhttp://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB - Route 66 (B. Troup) - remake CMBOfficial 2016-07-04 | Our remake of a classic. Intended for a ReverbNation contest of originality - but we missed the deadline. Anyway, it's obviously original, so we post it here.Children Medieval Band:Stefan (14) - gtrOlga (13) - kbdCornelia (10) - drmhttp://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB - Hendrix - Watchtower CMBOfficial 2016-06-06 | One of the best Hendrix' songs. Played by us live at the fundraising event at Daly School in Bonita-California, on June 4th, 2016. Good vocal and solo from Stefan. More from this show: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com/2016/07/24/new-old-songsChildren Medieval Band:Stefan (14) - guitarOlga (13) - keyboardCornelia (10) - drumshttp://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB - End of Road (Official Video) CMBOfficial 2016-03-02 | STORYLINE: "While running from an evil monster, the kids reach the ocean, hoping the waters will part. But it's not happening. However, a toy trap, set by Stefan, apparently defeats the monster...."From our first album "Treasure Underground" (youtube.com/watch?v=PIpzWJusEbo). Far below the quality of Rammstein videos, but it's our original work and has certain value. LyricsEnd of roadOur journey's now stoppedWe've come a long wayThought the sea will partBut now we lost heartWhile walking we hopedThat the sea will part.. but There is no divide And our rise is blockedIt's end of the road...R.We have reachedEnd of the roadAnd waitFor the sea to partNot much can beMore confusing than thisFar from what we thoughtSomething is amiss.And there's no returnWhile walking we hopedThat the sea will part.. but There is no divide And our rise is blockedIt's end of the road...R.We have reachedEnd of the roadAnd waitFor the sea to partIt's so sadThat we have failedAnd noMiracle's unveiled.Still we hopeThe sea will part And we'll Safely walk out freeA live performance of the song (with a coarse voice): youtube.com/watch?v=xz_Cc13DAT4Our site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB - Threatened - by Stranglers CMBOfficial 2015-12-20 | Stranglers is one of our favorite bands. Out of their many great songs we choose Threatened.Children Medieval Band:Stefan (13) - guitar, voiceOlga (12) - keyboardCornelia (9) - drums, vocalTo those concerned that we don't look 'happy': Hey, Stefan here, thanks for your concern, but I'm almost 14 and nobody's forcing us. I'm the leader of this band (whenever my sisters don't give me a hard time) and we definitely don't like the 'shake-butt' disco or the 'bad-ass' evil metal many other kids enjoy. We like this song because it's clever and intense. Otherwise we like a lot of Beatles, which most kids don't enjoy (and that's one big reason why we don't look too enthusiastic). Anyway, we would be happier if more people would buy our first album "Treasure Underground". Thanks.http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB - Medieval Rosenrot - (by Rammstein) CMBOfficial 2015-10-21 | During the great chivalrous jousting at the Tournament of Phoenix, CMB was playing an acoustic version of Rosenrot - one of the best Rammstein's songs. In Poway - California, Oct.18th 2015. More about this show: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com/2015/10/20/rosenrot-at-the-amazing-tournament-of-phoenixLyrics:Stefan sang from memory in German (broken?), but the chorus was translated in English, for the sake of the american audience:Deeper wells are fresh and clean,Must be dug by men of steelRosenrot, oh RosenrotDeeper waters don't run stillCHILDREN MEDIEVAL BAND:Stefan (13) - guitar, vocalOlga (12) - violinCornelia (9) - drumOur site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpres.com
Children Medieval Band - Rock History - Past and Present CMBOfficial 2015-10-10 | Two songs played at the cocktail party of USACD Convention (Palm Springs, California, 2015). We like the atmosphere of this film, it's genuine and true as a live performance. Also Stefan's voice is changing a lot and the result is quite interesting.Talking About You (Chuck Berry in 1960) and Du Riechst So Gut - which is not the Rammstein's latest, but it portraits their style quite well.More info from this show: childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com/2015/09/21/double-doubleChildren Medieval Band:Stefan (13) - guitar, vocOlga (12) - keyboardCornelia (9) - drumshttp://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com

CMB live - Hippy Shake (by Chan Romero) CMBOfficial 2015-06-30 | An early rock piece played by Children Medieval Band at the San Diego FaIr 2015.

Children Medieval Band - first album: Treasure Underground CMBOfficial 2015-05-01 | Intelligent music made by young kids with modest instruments.Samples from our new album, released in April 2015 and available at http://www.nimbitmusic.com/childrenmedievalband1. End of Road - 0:002. U Don't - 1:163. Crashed Van - 2:334. Charts - 3:365. Treasure - 4:396. Wolves - 5:317 .IceScream - 6:348. Digging - 7:329. LifeGuard - 8:3810. CMB March - 9:37Children Medieval Band:Stefan (13) - guitar, vocalOlga (12) - keyboardCornelia (9) - drumsMore info: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comThe truth is we are not so crazy about the quality of the sound. It's under the standard of a professional album, and we simply consider it as "100% homemade". But still, we are confident this is a good thing and we hope you will appreciate the efforts put into this. We expect criticism, but we are already aware of all issues, and have rated ourselves, on a scale of 1-10:- Recording - 2 (due to low budget equipment)- Mixing - 4 (inexperience)- Mastering - 5 (except three songs done by others: Mark Aviles and ADG Mastering)- Performance - 7- Lyrics - 9 - Originality & non-conventional - 10- Avoidance of FE (frivolous-evil) - 10Since we like to exaggerate a bit :), we dare to say that this is one of the most original albums ever made by a kids' band.
Treasure Underground - by Children Medieval Band CMBOfficial 2015-02-04 | The first song from our first album (youtube.com/watch?v=PIpzWJusEbo). Not regular entertainment, it's just something else. Not professionally recorded, but overall a good project. The 10 songs album has been released in April, much later than scheduled. Unexpected difficulties always arise. The latest: an injury suffered by Stefan during a football game. Can't play guitar for a while.Stay tuned: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comA short "behind-the-scenes" clip is here: youtube.com/watch?v=-JrH4_uu5v8Technical info: the playing and singing is real, but along a recording made previously.

Children Medieval Band - Dance the Night Away (by Cream) CMBOfficial 2014-11-22 | In memory of Jack Bruce (1943-2014). This song is from the "Disraeli Gears" album, 1967. We've always wanted to play a Cream cover and learned bits of several songs (Sunshine on Your Love, World of Pain, Those Were the Days) but this seems to be more appropriate, after his departure. Recording details: the bass line is partially overdubbed, also Stefan added a second voice.Children Medieval Band:Stefan - voice, guitarOlga - keyboardCornelia - drumsOur site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
12 instruments played by 12 year old - LIVE! CMBOfficial 2014-11-10 | Stefan is trying to advertise his band (Children Medieval Band) and to promote Medieval music through his ability to play many instruments. Important: this is LIVE - not edited. We had a couple of videos like this in the past. This is the last one, shorter and more energetic. The song is Mohrentanz, composed by Tielman Susato (1500s, Germany).The harp is a bit out of tune - couldn't find the tuning key, tried with pliers, but didn't work too well.Children Medieval Band:Stefan (guitar)Olga (keyboard)Cornelia (drums)More info: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
CMB March - live in Escondido CMBOfficial 2014-10-27 | Children Medieval Band at the Escondido Faire, California 2014. Recording is a bit remixed. An interesting composition from our upcoming album. A fusion between a beautiful childlike melody written by Tielman Susato 500 years ago, combined into a heavier arrangement made by kids today.Our first album "Treasure Underground" will be released, hopefully, by the end of this year, in December.Other videos from the same event: Vikings - youtube.com/watch?v=PIFtulR_vhEVentures - youtube.com/watch?v=fOPZ5SuRgMIDu Riechst - youtube.com/watch?v=ImkJujkMBVAChildren Medieval Band:Stefan - guitar, voiceOlga - keyboardCornelia - drumsMore info about this event: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com/2014/10/21/hidden-show-in-escondidoLyrics:We try to reach a place Accomplish our goalBut we received insultsFrom any dumb troll.We know that bravery is notEnough to winNot even talent butAt least we're not meanDangers are waiting and we'reReady to fightNot many weapons justProtection from LightVictory matter lessBut honour is allEven if we won't succeedWe'll be standing tall.CMB - marching freeCMB - playing for thee
CMB - live at USACD - Du Riechst (Rammstein) CMBOfficial 2014-10-22 | Sept. 20th, 2014 - nice show, great audience. We had posted too many versions of this song already, but this performance was nicely energetic, a special show. And also, we recently found some crappy music with hundreds of millions of views- that's not fair, CMB should be more popular too. At the USACD Convention in Palm Springs, California - we've been invited there to play for the cocktail dinner party.The sound on most of our recordings is bad, more or less. Besides the cheap instruments, we don’t have good recording tools, no experience, no patience and no time to do it professionally.But CMB is a great young band, at least they can entertain people live. This vid is a proof.Children Medieval Band:Stefan - guitar, vocalOlga - keyboardCornelia (8 yo) - drumsCMB site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
Children Medieval Band - Ice Scream - and nobody cares:-) CMBOfficial 2014-10-02 | A song from the (still not released) CMB's first upcoming album "Treasure Underground". Live at Mira Mesa on Sept. 20th, 2014. Sound is so-so, but the video has something special. The video is about 'indifference' :-) The song is about something else. This was an interesting day for us, played two shows successfully.

Children Medieval Band - Charts - live at Across the Street CMBOfficial 2014-10-02 | We decided to post this public too, because the drumming is charming. It's a good composition, but poor recording.Children Medieval Band on Sept. 13, 2014, presenting their upcoming album "Treasure Underground" - at Across-the-Street club in San Diego. This song - Charts - is a reaction to how unfair the charts are towards great bands like Stranglers or Rammstein. We couldn't find any number 1 hit written by bands like these. Most popular bands have been already forgotten by their former fans. Superficiality? Something to think about.Lyrics:We've listened to a lot of rockFrom screamo back to beatThere are so many epic songsBut none of them ever became a hit.We learned how to select the bestAnd play it with our handsThat's how we got to know that Rammstein'sOne of the greatest bands. Ein, Zwei, DreiWe learned from our friends R+Count 'und' tryTo play it on guitarEin, Zwei, DreiWe count like our friends R+They won't lieBut truth may seem bizarre.We looked into the top hits chartsAt most successful songsBut couldn't find the names we likeAnd that's not right but wrong.Despite of common taste we knowAnd surely understandThat Rammstein has great songs and isA truly awesome band.--------------------------Children Medieval BandStefan - guitar, vocalOlga - keyboardCornelia - drumsMore info: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com
Children Medieval Band - IceScream - live at Across the Street CMBOfficial 2014-09-17 | On Sept. 13, 2014, presenting their upcoming album "Treasure Underground" - at Across-the-Street club in San Diego. Unpretentious place, the stage lights suffered, but still it's a great venue. This song builds up on a purposely awkward riff onto a more hard-core ending, with young Cornelia playing at her best.As JJ Burnel said recently, most of today's music is sterile and dishonest. Not us. Even with poor audio and video, we keep promoting the 'good rock'. Our song Ice-Scream is an example.Children Medieval BandStefan - guitar, vocalOlga - keyboardCornelia - drumsMore info: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comLyrics:Don't screamIt's a bad dreamDon't touch that ice-creamDon't screamIt's a bad dreamCome join in our teamI scream,We scream,Our team!I saw the makers of thatTheir hands were dirty much soThey put some powder insideAnd they mumbled spells on itThe icecream should be pure and cleanTo poison it is quite a sinFrom now I'll make my own icecreamThe old icecreamGood old icecream
Children Medieval Band - LifeGuard - live at Across the Street CMBOfficial 2014-09-17 | Children Medieval Band on Sept. 13, 2014, presenting their upcoming album "Treasure Underground" - at Across-the-Street club in San Diego. This song - Lifeguard - has early rock flavor and some added tense avangarde elements, CMB style.Children Medieval BandStefan - guitar, vocalOlga - keyboardCornelia - drumsMore info: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comLyrics:LifeguardOcean swimMost waves are highThere is danger downNoone will hear you cryAnd the tide is strongPulling all alongFarther from the shoreReturn no moreThen the lifeguard will arriveSuch a great aide to survive
Children Medieval Band - Something Going On (by Frida) CMBOfficial 2014-03-22 | CMB kids, resourceful and versatile as always, released this mesmerizing remake, transforming a disco hit from the 80's into a heavier and more meaningful song, inspired by their own understanding of the times. Olga does this Frida's solo hit ("There's Something Going On" by Russ Ballard) as part of a small project - and also a kids' game - "Who's a better singer?". The other two kids solo acts are on our site: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.com/2014/03/22/our-own-talent-show . ----------------------------------The Lyrics of this song--------------------------------------I can see that it won't be longWhen our friends are gone, just keep holding onIt's not your fault that they always lieThat's something they will denyI know there's something going onI know there's something going onI know it won't be longIt won't be long before you're goneThere's something going on, on x 2I know this is not homeWe learned that we're not aloneAnd there is a threat hard to reason or feelBut I know that it is realI know there's something going onI know there's something going onI know it won't be longWon't be long before you're goneThere's something going on, on x 4I know it won't be longWon't be long before you're goneI know there's something going onI know there's something going onI know it won't be longWon't be long before you're goneThere's something going on, on x 3There's something going wrong, wrong...------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Children Medieval Band:Stefan (12) - voice, guitarOlga (10) - keyboardCornelia (8) - drumshttp://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comfacebook.com/pages/Children-Medieval-Band/211817842219823

Children Medieval Band - Purple Haze - by Hendrix CMBOfficial 2013-05-26 | This song is part of our study on the rock history. Out of the late 60's era we selected a Jimi Hendrix song as most relevant. A tribute to this great artist who passed away at the end of that period.Another version - psychedelic video created by Art Fischmann - is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSrIWPfOEqMWatch also the live performance of same song, on June 27th, 2015, at the San Diego Fair: youtube.com/watch?v=w156Ejo_ADwThis is another great cover of CMB. It may look as a lack of modesty, but we learned from experience that many cannot evaluate correctly a performance without a few hints.Stefan's vocal and solo part are high class.Olga rocks the bass part on keys as a pro.Cornelia wasn't feeling well, but her performance at the end is just awesome (as always:-).

Copy of Children Medieval Band - Alter Mann - by Rammstein CMBOfficial 2013-04-23 | This has been re-uploaded by mistake. But we leave it on youtube, it's a good song. The advertising stuff is not from us, it has been added by yt because the song is not ours. Maybe from now on we should try some compositions instead.An interesting remake of our video has been created by Art Fischman here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbRzR7g7NgIThe kids decided to sing Alter Mann in English. The translation is quite loosely done, for better vocal expressivity - but the meaning, the message and the surreal imagery are all there. Lyrics are below:The old man's holding his hand fanAnd combs the water, makes it flat,He's waiting for the midday's windAnd then he moves his fan a lot.I cast a stone and make a splash,The water wrinkles and the old manSadly flattens down the wavesAnd then he said, before he died...Re:The water is your mirror now,When smooth don't laugh at your reflection,See how much fairy tale is left for youAnd pray to lose not thy salvation.I cast a stone and make a splash,The water wrinkles as in pain,And then I take the old man's fanAnd sweep the water flat again.And all around there's only sandAnd high above the sky's so farSometimes I miss the old man's presence,But I remember his wise lesson...Re, ReOn this translation of "Alter Mann" we searched for a certain sonority of the words similar to Till's intonation, while keeping the meaning intact. The original Rammstein's lyrics were not betrayed.Children Medieval BandStefan (11) - guitar, vocalOlga (9) - keyboard, vocalCornelia (6) - drumsMore info: http://childrenmedievalband.wordpress.comFollow CMB on Twitter: twitter.com/childrenmedievCMB link on Facebook: facebook.com/pages/Medieval-Band-of-young-children/211817842219823Recorded on Mar 20, 2013 in California, USA
