Christopher Lee

It's the difference in number of generations from the common ancestor. Foro has one more generation in his lineage than I do.

A simpler example: You have first cousins (probably). Your common ancestor with them is your grandparents. Now let's say you have a child. Your child is a first cousin once removed to your first cousin, because the common ancestor is the same but there's now one more generation leading to your child. I hope that's clear. :bigsmile:

An edit to make things a bit clearer, hopefully: Let's say your first cousin also has a child. Now your child and your cousin's kid are second cousins to each other, because the common ancestor is 3 generations back from both of them. And when your cousin's kid has a kid of his own, that little one will be a first cousin twice removed to you, and a second cousin once removed to your child.
 
My mother has our family history traced back to the 1100s, and I, too, am related to Edward I, but through Henry III.

Yes, it's clear.  Thanks. :)
 
WAT

I suppose it's some sort of Rhapsody project and he wrote the lyrics?
Cause he guest starred in some of their previous albums.

About the heritage think going on here:
Hell, I only went 3 generations back as a part of an assignment every kid gets in 7th grade.
Are there documentations for every person who ever lived ever?
 
I'm pretty sure that would be impossible, but it IS possible to search through family trees by using archives of registrations of people living in towns and countries.
 
I go back to 1850s in Ireland when one of my ancestors left Ireland to come to Liverpool because of the potato famine.
 
:lol:

Actually, I apparently live in the least desirable city in Britain - Stoke - so between potato famines, Liverpool and here my family are having a bad run :P

Rhapsody (of fire) have been held up in legal issues for some time now and this is probably their way to put out new music, there are other bands involved so who knows who had the larger contribution.
 
So, has anyone here listened to this yet?

I shed the blood of Saxon men, I shed the blood of Saxon men
I shed the blood of the Saxon men, I shed the blood of Saxon men...
 
What a coincidence, I had just found out about Christopher Lee's metal work yesterday and it was not through these news.
 
The Slayer of Saxons is back.

Watching that video, can you believe he's 91 years old?

Furthermore: I never thought I'd ever hear a metal version of My Way... and even less that it would be Christopher Lee singing it. o_O
