The Bells Of Rhymny - The Wicked Old Witch / She’ll Be Back album flac

The Bells of Rhymney" is a song first recorded by folk singer Pete Seeger, which consists of Seeger's own music and words written by Welsh poet Idris Davies. The lyrics to the song were drawn from part of Davies' poetic work Gwalia Deserta, which was first published in 1938. The work was inspired by a local coal mining disaster and by the failure of the 1926 General Strike, with the "Bells of Rhymney" stanzas following the pattern of the nursery rhyme "Oranges and Lemons"

The Wicked Witch of the East is a fictional character created by American author L. Frank Baum. She is a crucial character but appears only briefly in Baum's classic children's series of Oz novels, most notably The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900)

Oh Nessa, at last! (sung) I've done what long ago I should And finally from these powers something good Finally, something good. Oh, Nessa Surely now I'll matter less to you You won't mind my leaving here tonight. Leaving? Yes That ball that's being staged Announcing Glinda is engaged To Fiyero. Alone and loveless here Just the girl in the mirror Just her and me, Wicked Witch of the East! We deserve each other. About The Wicked Witch of the East. This Act II song doesn’t appear on the official cast recording due to concerns about giving too much of the plot away as well as containing too much dialogue. As composer Stephen Schwartz put it

We'll have things fixed soon. Say the sad bells of Rhymney "Is there hope for the future?" Say the brown bells of Murther "Who made the might on Earth? Say the black bells of Ronda "And, who killed the minor?" Say the green bells of Blantyre. Even God is uneasy" Say the morse bells of Swansea "And what will you give me?" Say the sad bells of Rhymney "So worried, sister's white" Say the silver bells of White "And what will you give me?" Say the sad bells of Rhymney

The song was also included on Seeger's 1967 compilation album, Pete Seeger's Greatest Hits. For example, "From the bells bells bells bells/Bells bells bells!" brings to mind the clamoring of myriad church bells. Several deeper interpretations exist as well.

The Wicked Witch of the West. Go to those strangers who dare to intrude my territory at once, and destroy them all except the Lion and that little girl" said the Wicked Witch furiously. Bring that beast to me, for I have a mind to harness him like a horse. And then I shall make a slave out of the child. Your demands shall be obeyed," said the leader of the Winged Monkeys
