Iron Maiden - “Alexander the Great“ in Ancient Greek

This is a translation and recording of the Iron Maiden song “Alexander the Great“ into ancient Greek by myself, a professional classicist and lifelong metalhead. I am by no means a professional singer or audio engineer. If you are either of these and would like to collaborate on an improved version, please email me at jswist7@. If you are interested in my other work on Heavy Metal and the Ancient World, follow me on Twitter @MetalClassicist and read my blog Yes, I spotted the error far too late. It should be τοὔνομ᾽ ἐξέπλησσεν instead of τοῦνομ’ ἐκέπλησσεν. I wish YouTube would let you fix typos like that.
