Hey ther-
Oh, shit. Sorry, wrong thread. I'll just go now.
by EdvardEnglish is off putting in viking folk/metal songs. Týr are Faroese, Faroese and Icelandic are the closest languages to old norse. I like their non English songs better. Why sing in English, let people google the lyrics if they want to understand...
Icelandic:
Skálmöld is a cool Icelandic band I like.
Now I miss my friends from Iceland. We'd gather around a big ass fire (sometimes under the northern lights if time was to catch them) with enough alcohol, food, songs and stories to keep us warm. :D I think I'll pay them a visit soon.
Does English destroy the integrity of the lyrics, or the tone, or both?
My guess would be that it comes down to choosing between preserving the rhyme and the meter of the poetry, and preserving the power and the mood of the story told in the song.
^ They did a decent job with this one, but I'm pretty sure there are English words that would shape these particular metaphors and convey these particular meanings with more emotional impact.
Those English words wouldn't fit the rhyme scheme of the song, tho. English also doesn't have the same lilt as the Scandinavian languages.
It's a matter of authenticity. English is a language for lazy mouths to pronounce, and not too colorful and expressive. It's stripping some of the charm away. Not sure how to describe why it puts me off. Songs just seem more empty, both in content and in the artistic feel about them.
Loki climbed in behind the wheel of his pick-up. Ed was totally out, so Loki started his truck and drove to a secluded wooded area nearby.
The setting was perfect! The almost full moon gave enough light for good vision. Loki felt in complete control as he half carried, half drug his victim into the bed of his pick-up. He knew he needed to work quickly. He worked up a sweat as he began to strip Ed. First the boots, then socks, then the belt. Ed was still completely under.
Loki moved him around and got his shirt off, then stopped for a second to appreciate the sculptured chest.Those jeans came off next, leaving Ed only in his boxers, which Loki also jerked off of him. Ed's cock was soft, and thick looking, but Loki had been deceived by a soft cock before.
The young lawyer wanted to get him secured fast, but had to touch that cock first. It was so smooth, so thick feeling, and Ed moaned a little as Loki felt it. His moan made Loki realize he could wake up at anytime.
He began by laying Ed flat out on his back, the pick-ups tail gate down. He used the duct tape to secure both of Ed's ankles to the tail gate brackets. The long, strong legs spread out for Loki to view his maleness. Loki tested the duct tape, it was strong and going to hold.
The truck had chrome rails on each side of the bed, and Loki fastened Ed'd wrists to those. Duct tape was great, but he had second thoughts as he felt the muscles in his victim's arms. He reinforced the duct tape with some of the clothesline, making sure he was secured.
Loki's dick was leaking! He stripped real fast. His boxer briefs were wet from the pre-cum his 6 incher had leaked, and he grinned as he wadded them up in a ball and forced then into the straight man's mouth. He put some duct tape over Ed's lips to keep the improvised gag in place and wondered what his future lover was tasting...
Loki took his t shirt and ripped it, using it to blind fold the tall man. Ed was all his now, a big strong martial artist, and he was entirely helpless... He began to play with his captive's cock, and he smiled as it started growing for him. Ed was still out, but he moaned as Loki's tongue began to explore his skin. In just a few seconds, Ed was rock hard, a healthy nine inches of thick man meat. He was hard, and totally under Loki's control.
Loki's asshole twitched and his dick leaked as he thought of what he was going to do with his drunken fighter...
TBC >:D
Your inability to detect obvious sarcasm is even worse than I thought. Calling you "silly" was a dead giveaway. Your reaction, however, is awesome. Someone struck a nerve for you to go straight to insults.
