Thanks smile

I can't remember exactly, but it was certainly something with a "Scarab" in the title... I usually name myself something surrounding that.

Re: Analysis of "This Broken Soul". May contain Spoilers.

Nice, but i was thinking that this song was more refferring to Cynder then Spyro, i mean if ytou break it up and take it less logisticly and see it i a metaforical way, you would see it.....

O Holy Land Come ancient spirits
Take up my hand and guide me.

I think it is more like Cynder, i mean she is lost in between the abiss, of staying with Spyro and such, or finding her own path, i think its like a prayer to ask for help...

Pull me to shore Rivers are rising
look in this heart and find me.

once again, looking for help from being lost, this part might be dirrected towards Spyro or to the prayer to the ancestors...

I'm by your side Ashes still burning
I proved my worth So tell me why
I've lost my way Your voice is silent
I need you here To remind me

In this part, Cynder is pretty much saying, "I picked the path to stay with you, but i still feel lost, its like i dont feel the home" you know (I said that in a bit of slang) but yeah....

Show me now How to find my home
All I am Surrender


I think in this part, Cynder is asking for someone to lead her, and pretty much saying she is humble to that person in the "All i am Surrender"

Tell me that you can forgive
Bring me peace that I may live

I agree with the Cynder thing you put, Cynder is at a stage where she thinks all hate her (and sparx isn't helping) like in the begining where Sparx said "I do, think for yourself," Cynder agreed with him......

Let the water Flow right through this broken soul

In this part... Its hard to explain but let me try.... She knows that she is broken (metaphoricly) and has a messed up past, so she is pretty much surrendering....

I could explain it better, but that is what ill do for know, if there is any questions, ill answer....

Yeah yeah, well you know, about Spyro picking a path, he did klinda, in ANB he chose to go find out what he was, and from then it roled on, I thought that Cynder was a main Char tho, i mean she is a growing charecter, because you get to know more about her as you proceed in the game, i think she wil have a large role in the next game, i at least hope so...

Re: Analysis of "This Broken Soul". May contain Spoilers.

Oh yes, it's likely that she will  since the dark master is free now (preusmably) and he is such a huge oart of Cynder's past - cynder's idneitty and role will probably be massively questioned throughout the game, and I hope she is explored a lot further.

(It's also possible that she won't but... that would be kinda sil and dissapointing, given how her character has been built up so much in the last two games... You can't free the dark master and then not have him engge in even the slightest converstaion with his one-time loyal servant) XD

Re: Analysis of "This Broken Soul". May contain Spoilers.

When Neal sent an email to the composers of TLOS music, they said it was about Spyro's relationship to ignitus. Not Cynder to Spyro.

I heard of that, man that is a turn off to me, i always thought it went way better the other way, then again that is why it is music, as they say, music is not just giving one story.....

*Shrugs* They say a good composure doesn't force the listener to see things "their" way, but instead, creates a piece of music that everyone feels they can relate to in some way.

Re: Analysis of "This Broken Soul". May contain Spoilers.

While it does mean about Ignitus and Spyro, I agree with your anasis (I forgot how to spell that -.-). It could be a second meaning, and I have a few other things for this song. Sometimes, songs have different meanings dispite what the maker's said, and can very well be interpetated as something completely different. (I've done it a few times for a few songs that I like: Such as use them for something different.)

I may have repeated myself...and I'm sorry for that. I lose track of what I do/say very often.
