No, that's one of Gary Oldman's lines in Bram Stoker's Dracula.


Oh, yes Thomas, I already knew that... But I checked out and effectively it has been used by Cradle of Filth in one of their lyrics... I had that growl vocal line in mind and I couldn't remember where it came from...

Anyway, thank you for pointing it out!!!

I thought it was a lyric from The Phantom of the Opera
"On the first day Pim & Niek created a heavenly occupation. Pim & Niek blessed it and named it 'Loosch'." (Genesis 1:1)
Albyboy: "Is your signature taken from a lyric by Cradle of Filth..."

The fact is that ALL the above suggested answers are correct!

It began life as direct quotation from Bram Stoker's original vampire novel "Dracula".

It has since appeared in numerous vampire movies (including Bella Lugosi's 1930 Dracula original, Christopher Lee's 1959 Dracula remake, and Francis Ford Copella's Dracula - Gary Oldman version), theatre versions (like Phantom) and album lyrics (Like Cradle of Filth - and I believe "Shakespeare's Sister - but I am no expert).

It was also developed as part of an unreleased Freddie lyric, so I guess I use it because it has all of these meanings.
"Listen to them. Children of the night. What music they make."

Thank you John... I remembered that line coming from the Bram Stoker's Dracula, but I wasn't able anymore to go back to the record where I heard it too... I know it was something black metal: I was really smashing my head... Today I checked out and found it was The Cradle of Filth... I'm getting old: I'm at the point at which you don't remember lyrics anymore... Maybe stop drinking would help... Or maybe increase the quantity...... Btw, John, nice signature... Very gothic!!!
