The Trojan War

Curiosa versión musicada de la guerra de Troya. La música es de una canción titulada Tainted love y la cantante es Soft Cell. Al estar en inglés es estupenda para los bilingües en inglés. No obstante, hay que tener cuidado porque mezcla los nombres griegos y latinos

El texto de la canción es el siguiente

In Homer´s epic tale of Ancient Greece in order to make some peace at a wedding. The handsome Paris had to make a choice who was most fair of all the goddesses there?

A golden apple they´d receive and don´t you know, he picked Aphrodite! Then she promised him the love of a maiden, the most beautiful woman from Sparta. Her name was Helen, wife of the king Menelaeus, oh! wife of the king Menelaeus, oh!

Trojan war,

Trojan war

The Greeks were mad. They  gathered all the ships they had but then the fleet just wouldn´t move so Agamemnon asked what he could do to make things right.

Diana needed sacrifice with Agamemnon´s daughter slain. Those Greek ships could sail for Troy again.

Ooh Odyseus, known for his eloquence, ambassador to Priam, demanded Troy return fair Helen. The king refused and that started the war.

Trojan war

Trojan war

Hector was killed. Then Paris shot  Achilles heel. Butt he Greeks hid in a wooden horse and breached those walls of Troy of course!

Trojan war

Face that launched a thousand ships talking about the Trojan war. Face that launched a thousand ships talking about the Trojan war
