    Default Songs for a Medieval Theme

    Hello everyone this is my first post so be gentle!

    I'm trying to find a piece of music to use in a parade that this year has a medieval theme. It must be either fast (Something like an Irish Jig) or powerful and epic, its going to be played through a big sound system!

    I'd like lyrics if possible!

    Some current suggestions have been:

    "Cat and the Moon" from the Lord of the Rings musical

    Swords of a Thousand Men by Tenpole Tudor
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNJbJAjM5Ho

    "Deliver Us" from The Prince of Egypt
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GbI2Tlt55w
    Although this doesn't quite suit the theme it does give a sense of the type of music I'm after.

    For epic I suggest the bands like Blind Guardian, Visions of Atlantis, Nightwish, Sonata Arctica, Helloween.

    For fast yet medieval: Blackmores Night, Riverdance - Strings of fire.
