What are you listening to?

In honor of Easter one of the most stirring musical pieces of all time

Rimsky-Korsakov - Russian Easter Festival Overature, Op 36 (1988)

_http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FHFJ0lU9Us
 
Celtic Woman: Níl Sé'n Lá, Fields of Gold :-)
Enya: Most of Box of Dreams.
Mike Oldfield: Tubular Bells (all)

I suppose anything where the performer exhibits great understanding and effort in their performance.

Some Queen, Pink Floyd and Uriah Heep also falls into this category, but you need to be a little antique for them :-)

Des'ree - Crazy Maze

Lyrics:

Money don´t make my world go round
I´m reaching out to a higher ground
To a warm and peaceful place
I can rest my weary face

Life´s answers we try to find
Battling inside our minds
Where do I go from here?
Will all my friends be there?

CHORUS:
Cause we´re living, we´re living in a crazy maze
and we´re fighting, we´re fighting to rise above the haze
light´s at the end of the tunnel
sometimes the journey is long
there are many theories
who´s right and who´s wrong?

The pressure´s on I have to choose
I've got nothing to lose
I close my eyes I take a chance
Now I dance a different dance.

What´s the key to a happy life?
A healthy mind and lots of spice
Running barefoot through the trees
That´s my idea of free

CHORUS

I pack my bags, I´m on my way
Don´t know where I´m gonna stay
I´m on the train bound destiny
I can set my spirit free.

CHORUS (x2)

Cause we´re living, yes, we´re living in a crazy maze
and we´re fighting, we´re fighting to rise above the haze
light´s at the end of the tunnel
the journey may be long
there are many theories
who´s right and who´s wrong?
 
I've not been very focused on music at all lately, but I've just found this and can't help but share :D

Lyrics:
You’re on your own, in a world you’ve grown
Few more years to go,
Don’t let the hurdle fall
So be the girl you loved,
Be the girl you loved

I’ll wait, so show me why you’re strong
Ignore everybody else,
We’re alone now
I’ll wait, so show me why you’re strong
Ignore everybody else,
We’re alone now

Suddenly I’m hit
Is this darkness of the dawn?
And your friends are gone
When you friends won’t come
So show me where you fit
So show me where you fit

I’ll wait, so show me why you’re strong
Ignore everybody else,
We’re alone now
We’re alone now
We’re alone now

I’ll wait
We’re alone now
We’re alone now

I’ll wait
We’re alone now
We’re alone now
We’re alone now
We’re alone now

Suddenly I’m hit
Is this darkness of the dawn?
And your friends are gone
When you friends won’t come
So show me where you fit
So show me where you fit
