Talk:Charlemagne: By the Sword and the Cross

so many mistakes in so few lines

According to the article: "The album features The Tolkien Ensemble from Denmark, a 100 piece orchestra, two metal bands, namely Manowar and Rhapsody of Fire, and a number of guest vocalists playing the different roles in the story. It was produced by Italian musician, composer and producer Marco Sabiu."

This is of course utterly false. Lee has worked with all of them before on other musical projects. What is more, the link providing the "source" for this, says exactly that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.70.205.142 (talk) 00:28, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Lee himself is a descendant of Charlemagne

Two different sources apparently believe this to be notable enough to mention, so there's enough weight in this statement to be included in the article, no matter how trivial we may believe it to be. - SudoGhost 20:34, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

Removed refs

About the removed references: [1] is a dead link. The sentence "The album's promotional MySpace page garnered over 20 million hits from around the world." is sourced by the following links: [2], [3], [4]. However, none of them actually proves the assertion, and the first two do not even mention the album. [5] does not prove "The album features 2 metal bands, a 100 piece orchestra and a number of guest vocalists playing the different roles in the story. Music was composed by Marco Sabiu". Therefore I removed these dead and/or useless links. Nazgul02 (talk) 22:40, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Different lead singers on album vs. video?!?

Apart from Christopher Lee, of course, there are different lead singers on the album vs. the music video. The singer on the album can actually sing. Compare this (album) to this (video)... -- megA (talk) 13:32, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Would it be fair to describe this album as an oratorio?

To my ear, this album sounded far more like an oratorio with symphonic metal music, rather than the more familiar baroque music that one usually associates with oratorios (such as those of Handel), than a typical metal album of any established sub-genre. The long narrated sections, different speakers/singers with named roles, background choir, etc. are all typical features of oratorio. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.46.102.63 (talk) 19:56, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
