It was released in November 2001 as the lead single from their album, A Night at the Opera. Written by singer Hansi Kürsch and composed by Kürsch and guitarist André Olbrich, the song is based on The Iliad by Homer and on the Aeneid by Virgil, and narrates the final days of Troy, as foreseen by Cassandra, daughter of the king of the destroyed city who foresaw the event. The song is so intricate and long with so many tracks that it alone required as much production time as the rest of the A Night at the Opera album. At over 14 minutes, it is the longest track recorded by Blind Guardian. It was re-recorded into a new version in 2012 as a part of the compilation album Memories of a Time to Come. Track listing
