Original song I just wrote. I sang and played guitars and percussion. The rest is MIDI/VSTi. I played a few bars from a Monteverdi opera near the end. I’ll post some stems. I can add more stems on request. Lyrics:

All Hail Emperor of Rock
All Hail Emperor of Rock
All Hail, All Hail, omega alpha male
Ave Emperor of Rock
Hope you live to tell the tale
*
Kooler than a Kat from Japan
Triumph in a Bedford van
Bread and circuses for fans
Remember you’re just a man
*
You came, you saw, you conquered hearts
Gladiatorial combat in the charts
Vestal Virgins tearing you apart
Grab an image from Exchange & Mart
*
La dolce vita trouble & strife
Backstage rumours are rife
Above suspicion, like Caesar’s wife
Mid-March Watch out for Mac the Knife
*
Call in the augur to check your fate
Sacrifices far too late
Barbarians at the gate
Cleopatra let’s crack open another crate
*
