Blackstar... The Song!

[coinilius]

Well this was an interesting find... from this site here:

www.coucoucircus.org/da/1651-Blackstar---G%C3%A9n%C3%A9rique-instrumental

Blackstar music from the LP which is often seen floating around ebay... I
thought it might have just been the music from the series, which would have been
quite awesome to have, but this...

Well, here's a google translate version of the song, I haven't taken the time to
do a proper translation...


Blackstar fight Kadray
Heart to save up!
When he rides his dragon
He flew up there
To win, yeah!

But the genius of evil Overlord
Is almighty
He holds the light
His power is great
To kill, yeah!

Blackstar, the savior, the hero
Always there when you need
A soul avenger

Blackstar on the planet Sagar
Too quickly restores hope
To see the light

Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black

Blackstar, the savior, the hero
Always there when you need
A soul avenger

Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black

Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black

Blackstar thy sword fights
Alone against an army
You're not afraid of lasers or of the steel
To win, yeah!

Blackstar, the savior, the hero
Always there when you need
A soul avenger

Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black
Oh, oh, oh, Black star Black

I tried to get the non-instrumental version to play but the link was dead...

Wow, man how on earth did you discover this, ha,ha?!

This is the very same company (carrere) that released the monstre de la boue album.Who knows what other merchandise is out there...

I'm very much into vinyl records (and you said you're the old fashioned), do you think it's worth buying it? I mean the starting bid is remarkably low...

I know - the link I provided has a picture of the back cover of thd album, it seems to have the instrumental and non-instrumental versions of that song (and some nice character model artwork of various Blackstar characters) - I would say go for it! I have been contemplating bidding myself but I don't actually have anything to play it on - I would have access if I really wanted but I would rather see it go to someone who can enjoy it more

EDIT: well, see my post below this for if you are still interested in buying this lol in any event, it is certainly a curiosity and a very unusual piece of Blackstar merchandise!

Another page about this record:

www.bide-et-musique.com/song/4563.html

And you can listen to the vocals on this one! For what that's worth considering it is in French All in all, the instrumental is probably preferable...

[blackstar76]

To tell you the truth I'd buy this record just for the rear artwork!!!

[coinilius]

Yeah that is some nice artwork - there was a Blackstar style guide which Filmation provided to potential merchandise partners on eBay awhile ago - I would have loved to have gotten that...
