Aphrodite's Child - The Four Horsemen (video)

When i grew up in Germany in the early 70‘s, Demis Roussos was a big star on TV in a show called „ZDF Hitparade“, kind of Top of the Pops for for a genre called „Deutscher Schlager“, (a kind of very simple shmaltz pop songs mostly in german language) and he had the Superhit„ Goodbye my love Goodbye, goodbye auf Wiedersehen“ You can‘t be artistically more far away from music like this. Couldn‘t believe to discover him years later again with this record and also as a part of Vangelis „Blade Runner“ Soundtrack. What a guy!

Μαγεία!

Wow! only just discovered this....superb!

The first horseman holds a bow, and is said to represent either Plague or evangelism of the Gospels. But more specifically it seems to historically refer to Nero, who expelled the author from Rome and plays the role of the Beast in Revelation. The sword-wielding second horseman may represent war, or genocide. "Red" is a legitimate horse color, a reddish brown. The third horseman, mounted on black, is famine, which carries a balance because this is how grain was handed out when food was scarce:

When He broke the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, "Come." I looked, and behold, a black horse; and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard something like a voice in the center of the four living creatures saying, "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; but do not damage the oil and the wine." — Revelation 6:5–6

The fourth horse is described using a word "khloros", which probably should be translated from the original greek as "pale". But the Greek-speaking songwriters make a pun here, another meaning of khloros being "green", the origin of the word chlorophyll. The fourth horseman is explicitly named Thanatos, meaning "death" in Greek.

Excellent morceau !
