Leaves’ Eyes

Perilous name is Leaves’ Eyes.  Pretty much impossible to communicate verbally without spelling it out and punctuating it for the listener.  But, yes, there’s a band called Leaves’ Eyes.

They do beauty-and-the-beast symphonic metal.  And the title track (”chapter”) from their album (”book”?) Lovelorn is the most beautiful song I have ever heard.  Seriously.  It displaces Enya’s Exile to Position 2 and the Christian hymn How Great Thou Art (yeah, yeah, I know, I’m funny that way) to Position 3.

I’m not linking it.  I’m not trying to make a sale.  Don’t go listen to a thirty-second clip of it on Amazon; you have to hear the song build.  I would be happy to break a zillion different copyright laws and email you an mp3 of it.  Then, you will probably buy it.
