Or M. Bialik on Nostr: For years I was convinced that Deep Purple's #Stormbringer was about #Elric of ...
For years I was convinced that Deep Purple's #Stormbringer was about #Elric of Melniboné's sword... but I recently listened to the song the gender of Stormbringer in the song is male, while (in my mind) the #sword is female... so I sat to read and realize both notions were false. The song has nothing to do with Moorcock's book, and in the original version in English, the sword has no #gender.
