Iceni Queen - original song

Another collaboration with Rob - hope it's ok! :) I decided to try something a little different this time. I recorded the piano part first, then used it as a backing track. I filmed myself whilst recording the vocals for this song, then added a bit of reverb afterwards. Here are the lyrics... Iceni Queen She was a striking woman Tall with long red hair Her voice commanded thousands She possessed a piercing glare She wore a golden necklace She stood so strong and lean Her people called her Boudica The great Iceni Queen Her husband ruled the kingdom When soldiers came from Rome They took the lands of Britain They took away our home They flogged the Queen of Britain And raped her daughters too They left them bruised and bleeding On the British morning dew She wore a golden necklace She stood so strong and lean Her people called her Boudica The great Iceni Queen Boudica called her warriors In fury never seen And 80,000 lying dead Before the Iceni Queen She wore a golden necklace She stood so strong and lean Her people called her Boudica The great Iceni Queen Suetonius came to face her And Boudica met defeat All Britain's hopes were lost In the Battle of Watling Street She wore a golden necklace She stood strong and lean Her people called her Boudica The great Iceni Queen Her people called her Boudica The great Iceni Queen © Holly Kirby & Rob Burcham 2008 Honors for This Video: #79 - Most Discussed (Today) - Music - United Kingdom #96 - Most Viewed (Today) - Music - United Kingdom #52 - Top Favorites (Today) - Music - United Kingdom #35 - Top Rated (Today) - Music - United Kingdom My website is... http://www.hollykirbymusic.com :)
