What are you listening to?

I left my soul there
Down by the sea
I lost control here
Living free ... :flowers: :cool2:

 
Yeah Vangelis is quite a character - from Wikipedia:

[QUOTEVangelis developed an interest in music at age four, composing on the family piano and experimenting with sounds by placing nails and kitchen pans inside it and with radio interference.[6][1][9] At six his parents enrolled him for music tuition, but Vangelis later said that his parents' attempts to study "failed" as he preferred to develop technique on his own.[6] He considers himself fortunate not to attend music school as it impedes creativity,[1][3] and learned to play from memory. "When the teachers asked me to play something, I would pretend that I was reading it and play from memory. I didn't fool them, but I didn't care][/QUOTE]

And now something completely different:


Here she stands on the floor
Colder than ice,
Vision fixed on the door
Colder than ice
Now she knows that she's nice
Golden hair and deep blue eyes
No one dances her twice
Nothing happen so far
'Cause who wants to get burned by the ice
No one reach her tonight
Before she takes flight
She's colder than ice
How can I get in first
Hurt to intice
She's colder than ice
Colder than ice
Colder than ice
Suddenly I was there
And she's is in his arms
All too close to him
and she feels his charms
Couldn't see it no more
Could it be I'm loosing for sure
Oh it's breaking me up
'Cause I'm the only one
Who dares to walk on the ice
No one reach her tonight
before she takes flight
She's colder than ice
How can I get in first
Hurt to intice
She's colder than ice
No one reach her tonight
Before she takes flight
She's colder than ice
How can I get in first
Hurt to intice
She's colder than ice
Colder than ice

Tom Day - Who We Want To Be

Uyama Hiroto - Stratus
 
I found this artist recently, her music is so relaxing and had been a balsam while being at work, and ended up loving it, she has several Faraose (to which I do not understand it), from time to time, I read the translation and dwell in with my senses, trying to catch what she is trasmiting.

Eivør - Verð Mín

Fríða náttin er ein eimur / The beautiful night is glowing ashes
Stjørnugrús, nú vaknar heimur / In a mass of stars the world awakes
Nakin standi eg / Naked I stand Eina her.
Alone on this spot Maður vakur men so styggur / A man so fine but so timid
Nærkast varisliga, hyggur / Warily approaches, watches
Taradimt er hár / His hair as dark as seaweed,
Tinnuhúð. / his skin as fair as chrystalline stone.
Verð mín,
Be mine Verð mín,
Be mine Verð mín.
Be mine, my world.
Undan fert tú eftir hæli / You back away Bangin
, stundar eftir sælu / Frightened, longing for bliss
Tøld eg fylgi tær / Seduced I follow you
Verð hjá mær. / Stay with me.
Nærkast hav og himmalrendur / Sea and sky intertwine at the brims
Kveiktar skelva tínar hendur / Aroused your hands shiver
Til tín komi inn / I enter your space
Nem við meg. / Feel who I am.
Verð mín, / Be mine
Verð mín, / Be mine
Verð mín. / Be mine, my world.
Skrínið læsti, lykil fjaldi / Locked the chest, hid the key
Signaði ímóti galdri / Sanctified it against sorcery
Maður er mítt hav / The man is now my sea
Nátt er av. / The night is no more.
Tokkabundin hann meg fevnir / Spellbound he embraces me
Nevnir meg ein eydnulut / I become his talisman
Farin eru øll / Everyone has left
Einsamøll. / And I am alone.
Verð mín, / Be mine
Verð mín, / Be mine
Verð mín. / Be mine, my world.
Mín ham mítt hylki / My skin, my capsule
Eg sakni tað ikki, / I do not miss it
Ein ham eitt hylki / My skin, my capsule
Eg gloymi tað ikki. / I will never forget it.

This one in english, is lovely too

I am an old dude and I have trouble understanding some of the heavy metal stuff. Tool is for me a little monotonous in some respects but I can appreciate the nerdy technical skills involved in the guitar parts. I just like more melodic music but that is me and not everyone has the same musical tastes here. I am trying to learn what it is that draws us to a certain genre of music. I think every generation wants to create its own style as a form of breaking away from the nest so to speak. How we can put all that together and still arrive at some unifying "style" I really am not sure but here is one guitar teacher's explanation of the Tool guitarist's (Adam Jones) method:
