Glory (honor)
Glory is high renown, praise, and honor obtained by notable achievements, and based in extensive common consent. In Greek culture fame and glory were highly considered, as it is explained in The Symposium, one of Plato's dialogs. In Greek culture (Kleos) ''Kleos'' (Greek: κλέος) is the Greek word often translated to "renown", or "glory". It is related to the word "to hear" and carries the implied meaning of "what others hear about you". A Greek hero earns ''kleos'' through accomplishing great deeds, often through his own death. ''Kleos'' is invariably transferred from father to son; the son is responsible for carrying on and building upon the "glory" of the father. ''Kleos'' is a common theme in Homer's epics, the ''Iliad'' and the ''Odyssey'', the main example in the latter being that of Odysseus and his son Telemachus, who is concerned that his father may have died a pathetic and pitiable death at sea rather than a reputable and gracious one in battle.

Glory (Band-Maid Song)
"Glory" is the fifth single by Japanese rock band Band-Maid, released in Japan on January 16, 2019, by Crown Stones. The song was used as the second ending theme for the second season of the anime ''Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS''. It was released on the same day as "Bubble". Composition and lyrics The lyrics for "Glory" were inspired by the anime ''Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS'' and describes a world where AIs and human coexist. Rhythm guitarist/vocalist Miku Kobato stated that the English lyrics in the song were made intentionally easy to sing, as they found that many kids watched the show. The lyrics for "Hide-and-Seek" revolve around a darker version of hide-and-seek, where the outcome is life or death. It was based on a demo that lead guitarist Kanami Tōno had written and set aside for later use. Critical reception JaME said that the title track "...accelerates right from the start with its igniting opening riff, maintaining the speed over the course of the song with excellent drumming and ‘bou ...

Mirror Master (album)
''Mirror Master'' is the fourth studio album by the American alternative rock band Young the Giant. It was released on October 12, 2018, through Elektra Records. Background If their previous album, ''Home of the Strange'', is about the political issues in America, then ''Mirror Master'' is quite clearly about the personal—the internal. In an interview with billboard.com, Sameer Gadhia, lead vocalist and lyricist, explains this more in depth. The name ''Mirror Master'' comes from the idea that "You look at yourself in the mirror every day and you see a different version of yourself". Gadhia goes on to explain: In tracks such as "Superposition", "Call Me Back", and "You + I", Sameer explores relationships and the contrast between the bliss and the complexities one can find therein. Meanwhile, in "Heat of the Summer", and "Glory", Gadhia takes on the beast: himself. “That was probably one of the most self-effacing, most vulnerable lyrics that I wrote for the record,” explai ...

Adventure (Television Album)
''Adventure'' is the second studio album by American rock band Television, released in April 1978 by Elektra Records. Musical style On the album's sound, Mark Deming of AllMusic writes, "Where '' Marquee Moon'' was direct and straightforward in its approach, with the subtleties clearly in the performance and not in the production, ''Adventure'' is a decidedly softer and less aggressive disc, and while John Jansen's production isn't intrusive, it does round off the edges of the band's sound in a way Andy Johns' work on the first album did not." Reception Ken Emerson of ''Rolling Stone'' wrote, "By daring to be different, ''Adventure'' lives up to its title, but it also comes as something of a disappointment because it lacks the jagged tension and mysterious drama that imbued last year's ''Marquee Moon'' with such dark but lucid power." Robert Christgau of ''The Village Voice'' was favorable, writing, "I agree that it's not as urgent, or as satisfying, but that's only to s ...

Lift (Audio Adrenaline Album)
''Lift'' is the sixth studio album by Christian rock band Audio Adrenaline, released in 2001. Concept and development The concept of the album ''Lift'' came from several meanings, according to guitarist Tyler Burkum. In an interview with Jesus Freak Hideout, Burkum said: : "It's kinda like how if you lift God up. But not only God, there are many ways you can take it. Like how God lifts us up. There are many surface-level ways to take it. The whole thing is kinda how when we lift Christ up to people, we don't have to explain what God is. If you just worship Him and just point to God, that's enough. It's weird cause through the record there's this kind of like this underlying feeling of hope on the whole record. And it wasn't even like we tried to do that. It was just kind of there – this hope and a kind of a peace the way God lifts us up. The record is kind of like what happens when you worship. It's not really worship music, but what happens when you worship." Burkum also ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
