Music Monday: Queen of Kings by Alessandra

Music Monday is a meme that was created by Drew from The Tattooed Book Geek. Bjørn and I will pick a song alternatively on each Monday and share our thoughts about them. Timy’s pick this week is Queen of Kings by Alessandra.

I think it was last year’s Eurovision where Alessandra performed this song for Norway. It stuck with me pretty early on and I have no idea how it didn’t win, but oh well. I’m kind of used to Eurovision disappointments. Queen of Kings has been on my playlist ever since. It’s catchy, and it’s also about a queen, so go figure.

She, queen of the kings
Runnin’ so fast, beatin’ the wind
Nothin’ in this world can stop the spread of her wings
She, queen of the kings
Broken her cage, threw out the keys
She will be the warrior of North and Southern seas

Got raven hair, it’s dark as night
Icy eyes, outta sight, outta sight
Her heart, in spite, is warm and bright
Her smile awakes the northern light

Lookin’ out, she calls
Lai, la-la-li, rai-ra
Who will conquer all?!

Her name is
She, queen of the kings
Runnin’ so fast, beatin’ the wind
Nothin’ in this world can stop the spread of her wings (hey!)
She, queen of the kings
Broken her cage, threw out the keys
She will be the warrior of North and Southern seas

A firestone forged in flames
Wildest card, run the game, run the game
Can’t say the same in this world of change
Don’t fear the pain, just break the chain

Lookin’ out, she calls
Lai, la-la-li, rai-ra
Who will conquer all?!

Her name is
She, queen of the kings
Runnin’ so fast, beatin’ the wind (hey!)
Nothin’ in this world can stop the spread of her wings
She, queen of the kings
Broken her cage, threw out the keys (hey!)
She will be the warrior of North and Southern seas

Lai, la-li-la
Rai, rai-ri, rai, rai-ri
Lai, la-la-li-lai, lai-ri-ra
Lai-la-li-la, la, la-la, la
La, la-la, la
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

Her name is
She, queen of the kings
Runnin’ so fast, beatin’ the wind (hey!)
Nothin’ in this world can stop the spread of her wings
She, queen of the kings
Broken her cage, threw out the keys (hey!)
She will be the warrior of North and Southern seas (ha!)
