Inofficial Fenspace Hymn? - Warringer - 09-01-2011
Well, is there any Inofficial Hymn of Fenspace?
As in all of Fenspace?
I ask this because today, while listening to some Rush, I thought that 'Closer to the Heart' and 'Freewill' may fit the bill...
But maybe that's just me... :p

I think some factions might have something like a hymn... but not whole Fenspace... too many different people with different tastes.

The Hong Kong Cavaliers' rendition of "Karn Evil Number 9" has a video that was constructed specifically as a "Welcome to Fenspace" anthem. A description of it can be found here.

Heh. Looks like I missed that one.

I personally have always considered the 'National Anthem of Fenspace' to be Leslie Fish's Hope Eyrie, myself.

Watching a youtube video with Hope Eyrie, I remembered Fire in the Sky by Kristoph Klover...
Which might also do the job...

I quite like this.... but then again, that's just me.
More mature songs are probably better, mind.

For obvious reasons, StellviaCorp is partial to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNpnuDYwwQo]Brilliant Road to Tomorrow, but they don't expect the rest of the Convention to adopt it.

And Hope Eyrie -is- the official anthem of Greenwood, yes, it most definitely is.

I know a lot of people don't really care for the artist, but I think Moby's got a good candidate in We Are All Made Of Stars. The lyrics just about perfectly sums up the collective attitude of the Fen.
