Pandora's Box

According to the Greek
myth 'Pandora's Box,'
Pandora and her husband
Epimetheus were given a
box. This box was quite
beautiful; but the travel-
ler that left the box had
said that it should never
be opened. Pandora's
curiosity would win, of
course, and once Epimetheus
was away for a brief moment,
she opened the box.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
As she lifted the lid to
peek inside, out flew the
spirits of evil, despair,
sickness, disease, and
all other unpleasurable
obstacles for mankind to
face. Pandora was horrified
as the spirits swarmed around
her and Epimetheus, harming
everything they touched.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Pandora had released all
of the evils of knowledge
into the world. Yet, one
thing remained in the box -
Hope. When Pandora looked
back to the box, Hope healed
her heart, and gave her
(and all of mankind) hope
for the future. . . .

This is somewhat of a departure from my previous works. It is a fantasy/synthpop song which attempts to tell the story of the Greek myth by the same name. The underlying theme of this tune is hope -- which, really, is about the only thing that will get us all through the tough times which are due to come. I tried to create a smooth and lyric melody, while keeping it very light and playful; but, at the same time, the idea of hope is always present, as somewhat of an undercurrent throughout the piece. This tune was inspired mainly by the sound of some of Crusader's works (namely 'The Road to Nowhere'). Note: Please play this tune in ModPlug Player with the Max Polyphony set to at least 96 (if possible). Also, once the song starts, hit the 'Info' button for a (mostly) synchronized story.
