"You’ve got your misdirected fits of rage..."
While scholars and critics and generations of readers
are widely agreed that Hamlet — written sometime around 1602 — is the
greatest work of literature ever produced in the English language, there is a great deal
of disagreement concerning its actual meaning. Almost since its first performance,
critics, viewers and readers have argued what the play is actually about. Depending
on whom you ask, it is about youth, about madness, about genius, about love — about
all of these things and more.
Sample Lyrics from
"The Storm Within"
Oh, Prince of
Denmark…. You’re such a mystery
A model soldier and scholar
A Renaissance man for all to see
You should have worn the royal collar
But then you learned
about your uncle’s deeds
A suicidal melancholy in your eyes
Was the ghost your father’s spirit
Or the devil in disguise
Now you’re
trying to win your soul’s salvation
While your life is steeped in sin
Soon there’ll be nothing left to fight
Except THE STORM WITHIN
