Lyrics to When the time comes (Magni)
I love Magni’s original song and it’s slowly finding it’s way right to the top of my current playlist. For a song translated from Icelandic at short notice the words are as powerful as the vocals of the man singing them. A song about staying true to one’s self identity at all costs, it can well be interpreted as a not-so-veiled response to all the silly negative vibes Magni’s got from Supernova. And Gilby Clarke of all people has the gall to say Magni can’t write lyrics!! My admiration for the Iceman continues to grow manifold with each little bit of him I get to see. Too bad the reality circus is ending this week. But anyway Magni will now be free to do his own thing, which I for one will follow closely.
When the time comes (Magni)
Telling me to cover me
Trying to tell me who to be
Out of sight, in my reach
You can’t get what you can’t seeChorus 1: I’ll know that the time will come
When you’ll look back to see
So clear of all the bridges
That you burn in front of meEvery breath, every move
Every smile you ever faked
Close your eyes look inside
At all those things you had to changeChorus 2: I’ll know that the time will come
When you’ll look back to see
So clear all the things
You left inside my heart to seeChorus 3: I know that the time will come
As you’ll look back to see
So clear all the bridges
That you burn in front of meAs long as there are stars
There is nothing that can change
My feelings for you
I never felt this much alive
But the walls are coming down on me
I can’t find the reason to be freeChorus 4(2 times): I’ll know that the time will come
When you’ll look back to see
So clear all the bridges
That you burn in front of me
And yes for whatever it’s worth Tommy Lee was is an asshole whose inane music I’ve never bought nor will ever consider listening to. More analysis about last night’s performances when I’m less pissed off at that asshole, prick, insolent, sexist dimwit.

YEah, i totally agree with most of the stuff u said there.
Tommy Lee and Gilby simple dont like Magni, and let em go to hell with Lukas Rossi.
But do u know anything about Magnis future? I mean will he be singing in English in the future or return to Icelandic?

Spadika, nice to see a Magni fan for a change
Please check out the link to rockband forums I put in music category for regular updates on Magni’s career. From what has been posted there I think Magni has got some offers in the US but hasn’t made up his mind so far.
He will be doing some gigs with the houseband in Iceland in December and then link with T Lee’s band for some shows in January. I think we’ll see him do more stuff in English from here on. At least I’m hoping that’ll be the case…

The lyrics in icelandic:
Þegar tíminn kemur
Líður hjá – liðin tíð
Leysist upp í huga mér
Hylur mig – tælir mig
Hvað er það sem ég þarf til
Og þá – þegar tíminn kemur skaltu muna mig
Sé allt – nýjar hugsanir sem losa mig við þig
Kvelur mig – dregur mig
Það er það eina sem ég vil
síast inn – stingast inn
ég held ég verði að hata þig!
Og þá – þegar tíminn kemur skaltu muna mig
Sé allt – nýjar hugsanir sem losa mig við þig
Ég leita út um allt
en það er ekkert sem ég sé – sem kallar á mig
Ég stari út í nóttina
en það eina sem ég sé ert þú
það eina sem að minnir mig á þig
Og þá – þegar tíminn kemur skaltu muna mig
Sé allt – nýjar hugsanir sem losa mig við þig

“and who the fuck is gilby?? he played for gnr for wat 5 years .. esp when gnr was going thro a rough time.. and he aint too good ..”
Gilby is awesome. ‘..he ain’t too good…’ >> Have you even heard Guns N’ Roses playing with Gilby?? He IS good! He did the Use Your Illusions world tour, that was huge.
He’s an original ‘Rock Star Supernova’ guy, Magni was just a contestant. Remember that
“tommy is an ok drummer …. so now the band is stuck with 3 losers (lukas tommy gilby)” AND Tommy Lee is a wicked drummer. He’s great.
- One more thing, the viewers voted for Lukas, didn’t they? Didn’t he get the most number of votes in the finalle?
I love you Gilby! Hehe x
