Rhiannon is a prominent figure in Welsh mythology, mother to the Demetian hero Pryderi and wife to Pwyll (and later Manawydan fab Llyr). She is probably a reflex of the Celtic Great Queen goddess Rigantona and may also be associated with the horse goddess Epona.
She appears in both the first and third branches of the Mabinogi and is further mentioned in the early Arthurian prose tale Culhwch and Olwen.
Upon ascending the magical mound of Gorsedd Aberth, the Demetian king Pwyll witnesses the arrival of Rhiannon, appearing to them as a beautiful woman dressed in gold silk brocade and riding a shining white horse. Pwyll sends his best horsemen after her, but she always remains ahead of them, though her horse never does more than amble. After three days, he finally calls out to her, and Rhiannon tells him she has come seeking him because she would rather marry him than her fiancé, Gwawl ap Clud. A year after their meeting, Pwyll accidentally and foolishly promises Rhiannon to Gwawl, before managing to win her back through outwitting, bloodying and dishonouring his rival.

She has been noted for her ethereal visual style and symbolic lyrics. Nicks joined Fleetwood Mac on December 31, 1974, along with her then-boyfriend Lindsey Buckingham. Fleetwood Mac's second album after the incorporation of Nicks and Buckingham, 1977's Rumours, produced four US Top 10 singles (including Nicks's song "Dreams", which was the band's first and only US number one) and remained at No.1 on the American albums chart for 31 weeks, as well as reaching the top spot in various countries around the world. To date the album has sold over 40 million copies worldwide, making it the eighth best-selling album of all time.
Nicks began her solo career in 1981 with the 8 million selling album Bella Donna, and she has produced six more solo studio albums to date. Her seventh solo studio album entitled In Your Dreams, and her first in ten years, was produced largely by Dave Stewart of Eurythmics fame and Glen Ballard and was released on May 3, 2011. After the release of her first solo album, Rolling Stone deemed her "The Reigning Queen of Rock and Roll". Having overcome cocaine addiction, and dependency on tranquilizers, Nicks remains a popular solo performer. As a solo artist, she has garnered eight Grammy Award nominations and, with Fleetwood Mac, a further five, of which one was the 1978 award for Album of the Year for Rumours, which they won. As a member of Fleetwood Mac, she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998. Nicks is known for her distintive voice, mystical visual style and symbolic lyrics as well as the famous (sometimes tense) chemistry between herself and former boyfriend and guitarist/vocalist in Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey Buckingham.

Plot
'Hugh Jackman Saves the World' is an engaging comedy that shows that the gadget-obsessed youth of today may also be using the gear for positive reasons. When a group of 15 year old Australian girls are confronted about their cell phone and iPad activity they giggle away... but secretly, away from adult supervision, they are deep into a discussion about world politics and hatch a unique plan to head off a pending confrontation.
Plot
Two modern-day treasure hunters go searching for the lost gold of a legendary 1800s outlaw in the remote jungles of Far North Queensland, Australia. But instead of riches, they find a different kind of legend: a ferocious Australian monster known as a Yowie, Australia's answer to Bigfoot, and a savage battle for survival ensues. Thrown into the mix is a park ranger named Rhiannon and a burnt-out ex-homicide detective named McNab. Travis Bain's second feature is a fast-paced, suspenseful adventure/horror movie that pays tribute to B monster movies of yesteryear, ranging from 'Creature from the Black Lagoon' to 'The Legend of Boggy Creek' to John Carpenter's masterpiece 'The Thing', with a healthy dose of 'Treasure of the Sierra Madre' thrown in as well.

Passion. Mysticism. Adventure. Journey beyond the legend of Camelot.
Morgaine: No-one knows the real story of the great King Arthur of Camelot. Most of what you think you know about Camelot, Gwenhwyfar, Lancelot and the evil sorceress known as Morgaine le Fay, is nothing but lies. I should know, for I am Morgaine le Fay, priestess of the Isle of Avalon, where the ancient religion of the Mother Goddess was born.
Igraine: But I'm married to the Duke of Cornwall, I've borne him a child! I will not betray him! I gave him my vows!::Viviane: You gave them first to Avalon.
Viviane: No man or woman can live another's fate.
Ambrosius: Woman, are after all, carriers of Original Sin.::Bishop Patricius: That's not quite how we advance it, sir.::Igraine: Do you not say that women are the means by which evil came into the world? There is in your bible a fantastic tale about an apple and a snake.
Igraine: Think, before you strike me, Gorlois. Or I will teach you that a daughter of the holy isle is a servant of no man.
Morgaine: All the unhappiness of the past seemed to be swept away when I saw my little brother Arthur for the first time.
Morgaine: As Lancelot made his decision, deep within me there stood something I had felt for no man before. Within days, on the orders of Viviane, I was on my way to take part in the fertility rites known as the Beltane feast. The ceremony she called, "The Great Marriage." To whom I would be given, I did not know. But Viviane assured me that the future of Avalon depended on my playing the role of the Virgin Huntress. And that my partner would be the man that killed the King Stag. As I returned to the holy isle, a great longing gripped my heart. I hoped that the man at the Beltane rites had been Lancelot, but I had never seen his face. There had been no hint as to who he really was.
[Arthur is trapped in a burning house during a Saxon seige]::Arthur: I call on the powers of Heaven and Earth, aid me now! I call upon the God of Heaven, and the Goddess of the Earth, help me now!::Viviane: You call upon the God, and the Goddess? It is the Goddess who answers.
Gwenhwyfar: I dreamt of you in Glastonbury. You... you opened a curtain into Avalon, and lifted me in.::Lancelot: It wasn't a dream. I was there, with Morgaine. She lifted you in. But I asked her to do it.::Gwenhwyfar: So you felt it too.::Lancelot: But I am sworn to Arthur.::Gwenhwyfar: As am I.::Lancelot: So we have nothing to confess.::Gwenhwyfar: But I have sinned with you in my thoughts.::Lancelot: Thoughts, are not deeds.::Gwenhwyfar: But the Bishop says, to think, is to do.::Lancelot: My thoughts don't answer to the Bishop. If they did, I would burn in Hell a thousand years everytime I see you walk past!
Viviane: Morgause thinks of nothing and no-one but herself.::Morgaine: Your motives may be nobler than hers, but you still move us around like pieces on a game board. What has my mother given up for your Avalon? My father died at Uther's hands because of you. My poor innocent brother Arthur, who was a baby on my lap, and loved me as no other! And I loved him! Look what you've done to us. You've twisted our love, and turned it into shame, all for the sake of Avalon! No! I will not kill the child within me, but I will not let you take him to Avalon! I will not let you twist and bend him to your will!::Viviane: I can train him to be the greatest ruler Britain has ever seen.::Morgaine: He will never set foot in Avalon, Viviane! He will not be one of your pawns, and nor will I!::Viviane: You have sworn to obey the Goddess through me!::Morgaine: My vows were to her, not to you. I renounce you! Do you hear me? I will never set foot in Avalon again!

Rhiannon rings like a bell thru the night
and wouldn't you love to love her?
she rules her life like a bird in flight
and who will be her lover?
all your life you've never seen
a woman , taken by the wind
would you stay if she promised you heaven?
will you ever win.........?
CHORUS: Rhiannon......
Rhiannon......
Rhiannon......
she is like a cat in the dark
and then she is the darkness
she rules her life like a fine skylark
and when the sky is starless
all your life you've never seen
a woman..taken by the wind...
would you stay if she promised you heaven?
will you ever win.....?
will you ever win.....?

Long As I Remember
I want to believe in reasons for me to try to believe in you.
I find it hard to look for them, through all of this confusion.
A thing like you always do, I know that I have come through.
With a thousand reasons why you know you can't go on with me.
You've been coming down too hardly, I can't see no reason for it
You've been screaming at me now, as long as I remember.
You told me that you won't back dwon, I don't give a damn about that now.
All the time I talk to you, you always turn the other ear.
You tell me that you know me well, everything will work out fine
As long as I just stick by you, you will be awaiting for me.
If I ever want to be there, then you'll come and sign me on.
There's other ways to satisfy, ideas will always come to me.
I take my time and go right at it, it's always there when I call it.
Go ahead and go your own way, did I ever really need you here.
Protecting and your covering me, like you'd always done before.
Chorus
And I know, your story too.
And I know, the songs you sing.
This dream will never end
As long as I come back again.
Into your arms.
Chorus
Then you'll come around, they you'll come and sign me on!
Out of the Way
I took my time getting here thought I can't really tell
Why I thought to come here at all.
All my friends are gone and I'm feeling alright,
Now I've ended up here with you.
I wish I was at home with my music alone,
without you watching every move that I make.
I was hoping somehow that you'd see it that way
It takes me time to get you out of the way.
Chorus
Out of the way...and out of sight,
And far away, to let me be.
You put me down, still you hang around.
So out of the way
Now I hear you everyday and it's out of control
You think you've locked me inside with you.
But I've got to secrets to the starts of your lies,
Still you follow me where ever you go.
It was better late than never when we said goodbye.
Do I have to spell it out for you?
Do you understand I had to make a choice when
I had to get you out of the way?
Chorus
No they're coming out the woodwork again it seems
I think I got to take care this time.
No one's stopping them from coming in these days.
I wish they'd leave me behind for once and all
So you'll find where there is someone
Who knows about the bullshit that is coming down.
You kick a dead horse when its down on the ground
That's why I had to get you out of the way...
Chorus
Things I Find
Coming down or going up is where I started from.
Inside out and outside in between.
Leaving or arriving to a place I've been before.
Falling down and getting up again.
Chorus
There's something outside hidden in the air for me
I'm not sure good or bad just what it is.
Things I find you know that they don't stay for long
There here, and then, they're gone.
Having things both ways then you could have nothing at all
Giving not receiving so they say.
A lonely crowded space has left me wondering far away.
Where I had departed to before.
A stranger is someone who you will meet but never know.
They come and go some stay like life long friends.
Trustin and suspcious I have approched them in a day.
Like faded dreams and nightmares in my mind.
Chorus
Friends that once were close become so distant over time.
The miles turn to inches when I see.
Blinded by the light the darkness lies within their eyes.
Friends and strangers, voices from the past.
Farther down the road is closer to the place I've found
Searching and I'm hiding from within.
In cities and the country these are places that appear.
Some angel or some ghost has left me cold.
Chorus
Bridge
Destruction or creation carves a path that leads to me
What I've said and done before I've meant.
They bought my thoughts and stole my dreams when I have come along
Destination is the place we started from.
Chorus
A stranger to the distance takes me where I want to be.
A distant friend has taken me some place.
Escaped and or in a prison I can soon set myself free.
Friends and strangers living side to side.
Ascending to the bottom of a flattened space I see.
An obstacle that yields the way somewhere.
Deep in shallow water is a reflection that I see.
Its friends and strangers looking at to me.
Rhiannon rings like a bell through the night And wouldn't you love to love her She takes to the sky like a bird in flight And who will be her lover
All your life you've never seen A woman taken by the wind Would you stay if she promised you heaven Will you ever win...
She is like a cat in the dark And then she is the darkness She rules her life like a fine skylark And when the sky is starless
All your life you've never seen A woman taken by the wind Would you stay if she promised you heaven Would you ever win? Will you ever win..
Rhiannon... Rhiannon... Rhiannon... Rhiannon...
She rings like a bell through night And wouldn't you love to love her She rules her life like a bird in flight And who will be her lover
All your life you've never seen A woman taken by the wind Would you stay if she promised you heaven Will you ever win... Will you ever win...
Once in a million years, a lady like her rises. 'Rhiannon' you cry but she's gone, and your life knows no answer, and your life knows no answer.
Rhiannon... Rhiannon... Rhiannon...
Taken by, taken by the Sky....
Taken by, taken by the sky...
Taken by, taken by the sky...
