Which one do you prefer ?

I really love the Kayak's one, but the one from Solaris has something more IMO.
More than a poll, it's an indirect way to make peopla aware of a very good Hungarian band, something that Kayak probably don't need.

Unfortunately I never listened to any Judas Priest's album. There's not a specific reason, only I never tried them. I just have the idea that they are hard-rock or metal.

Rouge Ciel's Nostradamus l'avait prédit
Les mains, les pieds balancés
Sur tant de mers, tant de planchers,
Un marin mort,
Il dormira

Already two missing Nastradamus...Once I have enough, I'll create a new poll including all of them. 
For those are suggesting "others", could you please add a short note about the band and the album, or a link to a review?

About Rouge Ciel, I've seen on PA that's just a track, not a concept album, so I won't include it in the next poll, but it's good to know in any case.

I´m joking, I´m not interesting to Judas Priest or another metal scene. Of course, I have any personal memories from my age about 16. Therefore JP´s album have came first on my mind.

I've just found this one on the web, but I have no idea of what kind of music it is:

THE HUDSON CHAMBER ENSEMBLE : Nostradamus - The music of his renaissance.

Chamber ensemble maybe ?

Zijn naam was Nostradamus, hij kon heel goed voorspellen
Daar kon je hem bij wijze van spreken midden in de nacht voor bellen
Maar ik weet dat dat niet waar is, bespaar me dus uw hoop, want in de tijd van Nostradamus was er nog geen telefoon
Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed!

Nostradamus,Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed!

Jaaa,z’n naam was Nostradamus,soms ging ie naar een cafe
En dan ging ie daar een hele boel stennis lopen trappen
Toen zeiden de mensen tegen Nostradamus:misschien kan je dan wel goed voorspellen
Maar dat wil dan dus niet zeggen dat je dan automatisch ook gelijk heel veel stennis kan gaan trappen

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed! Jaa!

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed! Jaa!

Z’n naam was Nostradamus
Hij werd een keer gevraagd of ie wilde figureren in een speelfilm
Maar daar had Nostradamus geen tijd en das toen niet doorgegaan

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed! Jaa!

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed! Jaa!

Z'n naam was Nostradamus
hij, hij, hij vond dat als je een huisdier aanschaft, dat je daar dan toch ook wel de verantwoordelijkheid voor moet dragen
Terwijl eigenlijk hij zo daar niks over moest zeggen, want hij had zelf twee Sint-Bernard's honden, en die liet ie bijna nooit uit

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed! Jaa!

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed! Jaa!

Z’n naam was Nostradamus, hij had ook een achterneef, en die had een electriciteitswinkel
en toen wilde Nostradamus daar vakantiewerk gaan doen, maar dat hoefde niet

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed! Jaa!

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond ‘m goed!Jaa!

Z’n naam was Nostradamus, hij droeg zoals ik al zei heel vaak strakke groene broeken
Toen zeiden de mensen tegen Nostradamus: Zou je niet eens een keer een andere broek aantrekken
Maar dan zei Nostradamus altijd: Ik maak zelf wel uit wat voor broeken dat ik aantrek

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed! Au!

Nostradamus, Nostradamus
Nostradamus met zijn strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed!
Die stond 'm goed

Die stond 'm goed
strakke groene broek
Die stond 'm goed, goed, goed
strakke groene broek
Met een dikke bobbel
Ja, strakke groene broek
Dikke, dikke, dikke bobbel
in die strakke groene broek
Die dikke lul van Nostradamus, yeah
Die dikke grote vette zweterige lul van Nostradamus, jaa!
En allemaal lekkere geile wijven naaien Nostradamus, jaa!
En dan ook nog goed voorspellen, jaa!

it pretty much describes the life and times of Nostradamus and his involvement in everyday life.

Nikolo Kotzev's Nostradamus rock opera is perhaps even better then solaris' and Kayak's version. It's very rare though.

Solaris' "Nostradamus" is a masterpiece of symphonic prog. I drove from Ohio to Florida a couple of years ago, a good 22-hour drive. I had just gotten this CD on the recommendation of Greg Walker and popped it my car's disc player as I got on the highway.
When it ended, I let it play again. And again. All the way to the Florida border before putting something else on (and I'd brought 50+ CDs). It had been a long time since an album blew me away from start to finish.
I guess that  you can gather which way I voted.

Just what I was about to mention, as well. Featuring singers such as Jorn Lande, Göran Edman and Glenn Hughes.
