Former Huskerdu Grant Hart’s album based on John Milton’s Paradise Lost is probably the most ambitious adaptation of the poem since John Dryden’s 1674 Operatic adaptation. Golden Chain describes Satan’s view of the Earth as he approaches it.
Golden Chain Annotated
The world it hangs from a golden chain
the world it hangs from a golden chain
the world it hangs from a golden chain
suspended from the sun.
Black shadows are hanging over the moon
Black shadows are hanging over the moon
Black shadows are hanging over the moon
And I have other fears.
The world it hangs from a golden chain
the world it hangs from a golden chain
the world it hangs from a golden chain
suspended from the sun.
The Earth is chained to a ball of flame
the Earth is chained to a ball of flame
the Earth is chained to a ball of flame
that burns for ever more.
