caballero reyes,

I could not view that link but I saw another link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hj2r-1j3K7c .

I accidentally found 2 other videos that I really enjoyed too:


And this one below had such feeling and beautiful blending of voices I thought:

 
goyacobol, you are a good help to forumitas accurate results in various issues, especially the details concerning the C's. Sessions. Good search engine, thanks.
 
This song is from Coke Studio Pakistan TV Show. In options you can select subtitles for the English translation of the lyrics.

I came across this today in a health article and thought it interesting. Amazing Footage Of An Opera Singer In An MRI

Wow. Interesting to see the tongue in action. An under-appreciated organ, it seems. Receives sensation and provides expression.
 

I don't know why, but this song makes me really emotional. Here are the lyrics:

If I had wings like Noah's dove
I'd fly the river to the one I love
Well fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well

Well I had a man who was long and tall
Who moved his body like a cannon ball
Well fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well

I remember one evening, in the pourin' rain
And in my heart was an achin' pain
Well fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well

Muddy river runs muddy 'n' wild
Can't give a bloody for my unborn child
Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well

So show us a bird flyin' high above
Life ain't worth living without the one you love
Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well
Well fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well

Beautiful song, Zee Ley!
This just reminded me of a song that I stumbled upon several months ago, also from Coke Studio Pakistan.
Abida Parveen is held as one of the world's greatest mystic singers. Her way of singing gives me goosebumps, very strong voice.


Recently I discovered one Polish band called Riverside, they sound Floydish and have interesting lyrics.



Riverside - Found

Cut off from the dream
Where the sky meets water
Beneath forgotten stars
Feeling like a child
I embrace what I came for
And what I've overcome

Oooh, it's a lovely life
You have gone so far
Don't give it up
Oooh, it's a lovely life
You gotta go with
What you think is right

Delve into myself
With my truth and devotion
I start another flow
Gliding up and down
In my yearning for daylight
I find you in my soul

Oooh, it's a lovely life
Sun emerges from behind the clouds
Oooh, it's a lovely life
You gotta go with
What you think is right

Cut off from the dream
Where the sky meets water
Beneath forgotten stars
I feel like a child
Found in waking life

Riverside - Discard your fear


once
in the darkness
of bad memories
you stepped into a trap
but the spring-loaded bar
Didn’t break your neck
and you remained there
waiting for the better time

Life
With your passivity
in the face of choices
forced you to turn back
settle with your lies
but the stubborn glass
Doesn’t want to talk to you
Waiting for the better time
chair bound and bedridden heart

discard your fear of the unknown
be here and now
Just find yourself in peace
try to free your mind
wake up
get unstuck
let it go
send your shame to nevermore

your past
your distorted thoughts
closed you in the box
and cluttered up your head
hewn from happiness
in your fable town
you're still afraid of
Starting something new this life

discard your fear of the unknown
be here and now
Just find yourself in peace
try to free your mind
wake up
get unstuck
let it go
Send your shame to nevermore

discard your fear of the unknown
be here and now
just find yourself in peace
try to free your mind
Wake up
Get unstuck
let it go
send your shame to nevermore
let it go
Scare away your fear

No more
Fear of new life
Fear of days of the unknown
Fear of new life
Fear of days of the unknown
Fear of new life
Fear of days of the unknown
fear of new life

no more fear of love

"Daydreaming"

Dreamers
They never learn
They never learn
Beyond the point
Of no return
Of no return

And it's too late
The damage is done
The damage is done

This goes
Beyond me
Beyond you
The white room
By window
Where the sun goes
Through

We are
Just happy to serve
Just happy to serve
You

Evol ym dnuof ev'I
Evol ym dnuof ev'I
Evol ym dnuof ev'I
Evol ym dnuof ev'I
Evol ym dnuof ev'I
Evol ym dnuof ev'I
Evol ym dnuof ev'I
Evol ym dnuof ev'I

(from http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/radiohead/daydreaming.html)

I felt this was a strange music all the way, but the first verses reminded me of the Kafka's quote we see in chapter 27 of the Wave (third volume):

“Beyond a certain point there is no return. This point has to be reached.”

(from http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/163362-beyond-a-certain-point-there-is-no-return-this-point)

Tribal cool...One Voice - The Wailin' Jennys

This is the sound of one voice
One spirit, one voice
The sound of one who makes a choice
This is the sound of one voice
This is the sound of voices two
The sound of me singing with you
Helping each other to make it through
This is the sound of voices two
This is the sound of voices three
Singing together in harmony
Surrendering to the mystery
This is the sound of voices three
This is the sound of all of us
Singing with love and the will to trust
Leave the rest behind it will turn to dust
This is the sound of all of us
This is the sound of one voice
One people, one voice
A song for every one of us
This is the sound of one voice
This is the sound of one voice

This is such a place of discovery for me.

The next song plays and there you are. Upward and onward...



The wailin' jennys - long time traveller:

These fleeting charms of earth
Farewell, your springs of joy are dry
My soul now seeks another home
A brighter world on high
I'm a long time travelling here below
I'm a long time travelling away from home
I'm a long time travelling here below
To lay this body down
Farewell kind friends whose tender care
Has long engaged my love
Your fond embrace I now exchange
For better friends above
I'm a long time travelling here below
I'm a long time travelling away from home
I'm a long time travelling here below
To lay this body down...
