Hi there!
I heard this song last week on Boneyard radio station in the SF Bay area, and I'm unable to find the title and the artist through Google. I can only remember parts of the chorus, which go something like this:

"Say goodbye to the land of (Archibane?),
... holding back the rain"

I know this isn't much help, but I couldn't remember more than this. The song sounds like a classic metal song from the 80s or 90s, and the lyrics were rather of the epic sort (kinda like some older Iron Maiden songs).

Since the above-mentioned station usually plays classic metal (Judas Priest, Metallica, etc.), hard rock, and a few heavier songs, the song I'm looking for should fall into one of these categories.

I'd be really grateful for any suggestions!
Thanks!

I know my hard rock and that sounds vaguely familiar but I am at a loss as well. My guess is that it is from a progressive hard rock band like Stratovarius.
