I picked up a copy of the 'Sounds of Sufiaana' at Deli Airport. It's instrumental music.

It's beautiful Ruth! I recently came across this combination of flamenco and indian classical music:

The combination of both cultures IMO is just lovely. I was listening also to this whole concert and loved it!

 
Loreena McKennitt - Night Ride Across The Caucasus


Ride on Through the night Ride on
Ride on Through the night Ride on

There are visions, there are memories
There are echoes of thundering hooves
There are fires, there is laughter
There's the sound of a thousand doves

Ride on Through the night Ride on
Ride on Through the night Ride on

In the velvet of the darkness
By the silhouette of silent trees
They are watching, they are waiting
They are witnessing life's mysteries

Ride on Through the night Ride on
Ride on Through the night Ride on

Cascading stars on the slumbering hills
They are dancing as far as the sea
Riding o'er the land, you can feel its gentle hand
Leading on to its destiny

Ride on Through the night Ride on
Ride on Through the night Ride on

Take me with you on this journey
Where the boundaries of time are now tossed
In cathedrals of the forest
In the words of the tongues now lost

Find the answers, ask the questions
Find the roots of an ancient tree
Take me dancing, take me singing
I'll ride on till the moon meets the sea

Ride on Through the night Ride on
Ride on Through the night Ride on

Ride on Through the night Ride on
Ride on Through the night Ride on

One Of The Best Covers You’ll Ever Hear! [I agree!]

The opening track to Side 3 of Pink Floyd’s The Wall is one of the greatest songs in the history of music! “Hey You” encapsulates everything about the album’s main character, Pink.
It’s a dark, eerie and grand song that serves as the climax for the album.

No one performs “Hey You” quite like Pink Floyd, obviously, but there are some pretty damn good covers out there.
This one in particular by heavy metal band Bobaflex [from Point Pleasant, West V.!] will completely blow your mind.
These heavy metal guys stay true to the original tune of the song, but add subtle changes. Their cover is a tad heavier, and the solo is alightly altered. But other than that, it’s pretty hard to find a better cover than this one!

good day! ... to all :cool2: :flowers:


Did you see the lights
As they fell all around you
Did you hear the music
Serenade from the stars

Wake up, wake up
Wake up and look around you
We're lost in space
And the time is our own

Whoa, whoa
Iiiiiiiiii

Did you feel the wind
As it blew all around you
Did you feel the love
That was in the air

Wake up, wake up
Wake up and look around you
We're lost in space
And the time is our own

Whoa, whoa
Iiiiiiiiii

The sun comes up
And it shines all around you
You're lost in space
And the earth is your own

Whoa, whoa
Whoa

Here's a live version of Michael Franti's 'Good to be Alive Today'. Contrary to the title of the song, he's speaking to the current condition of our planet and all the strife happening around the world, while trying to remain hopeful that one day things will be better.

Yeah like his stuff, cheers for sharing!!

wish strength and love to all out there .... :cool2:


They shut the gates at sunset
After that you can't get out
You can see the bigger picture
Find out what it's all about
You're open to the skyline
You won't want to go back home
In a garden full of angels
You will never be alone

But oh the road is long
The stones that you are walking on
Have gone

With the moonlight to guide you
Feel the joy of being alive
The day that you stop running
Is the day that you arrive

And the night that you got locked in
Was the time to decide
Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride

If you close the door to your house
Don't let anybody in
It's a room that's full of nothing
All that underneath your skin
Face against the window
You can watch it fade to grey
But you'll never catch the fickle wind
If you choose to stay

But oh the road is long
The stones that you are walking on
Have gone

With the moonlight to guide you
Feel the joy of being alive
The day that you stop running
Is the day that you arrive

And the night that you got locked in
Was the time to decide
Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride

Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride

With the moonlight to guide you
Feel the joy of being alive
The day that you stop running
Is the day that you arrive

And the night that you got locked in
Was the time to decide
Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride

With the moonlight to guide you
Feel the joy of being alive
The day that you stop running
Is the day that you arrive

And the night that you got locked in
Was the time to decide
Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride

Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride

Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride

Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride

Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride

Thanks, solar mind. I watched it twice. The lyrics and the imagery of the video were strange and interesting. It' almost like a surfing the wave concept but a bit erie too. In trying to get out of the cemetery the characters finally join in with the ghosts/spirits and ride their tombstones into the heavens/clouds. Very creative to say the least I think, but spooky too.

Great one also 987baz, this song kinda reminded me to this one:


Translation:

Citizen of the world

I don't have a war anthem nor a homeland nor a President
I have no army but that of those who want
To fight for love despite the rule of money
I have no people to exploit, no wealth to produce for my own
I have no ground to protect from these miserable people who come from around the world
And if we should starve to death together here, be welcome
Rather die than live in abundance, dressed in clothes when so many others are naked

Citizen of the world, supporter of a world without borders

There is the good foreigner who you welcome arms open wide
And there is the bad one who you hunt down as soon as he crosses your border
There is the good one, who will be useful to you
And there is the hoodlum who you don't want to see coming to your town at all
If you look for the brute, go where you talk dollars, cash and crude oil
But anyway don't look for the sheriff I shot him down when he told me he only protected the rich

Citizen of the world, supporter of a world without borders

And if you're not happy with your share, you'll take more without having to fight
There are so many losers in this world, so easy to knock down
Look at all these borders they are but dark scars
Open wounds of ancient conquests, remains of useless sacrifices
So many poor soldiers sent for the task died
While in some cosy place the colonels were celebrating the victory with champagne
There is only one dream I chase, one sentence that sounds inside of me
Beyond the borders the Earth must belong to all or to none

Citizen of the world, supporter of a world without borders
