Adapted for an Action hero of the 8th Century
Hey kids! I want to share with you a classic 80's rock song about an historical figure you public school students ain't never learnt about: Charlemagne (king of the Holy Roman Empire).
If you want to learn more about this great man, go to Wikipedia or something.
Now I bet you Steely Dan fans thought I was talking about "Kid Charlemagne". Sorry, although I love the Dan's song, this song is about a real action hero of the 8th Century. And yes, it's really a take on Blondie's "Call Me." Her music is good enough to be used for this monumental figure of human history.
Check it out and listen to the lyrics and learn something about history.
I got a hold of the video through American Catholic reading about Charles Martel, grandfather of Charlemagne and one of my dear ancestors.
Another song about an historical figure by yours truly: Cortez
