Dead Can Dance - Desert Song

[laurana99]

These guys and girl need to come to Kelowna . Wow !!!!!!!!

[viletree]

What an intense song I've been listening to this, Cantara, and Rakim constantly for the last week or so. All three of them are very intense songs.

[zerutuby]

This song is mystical. No one plays like this anymore.

[mranere]

@zerutuby They have a new music coming out soon and they will be going on tour. I will sell a kidney to see them, again.

[solarisbliss]

Do you know she has her hair so often braided like that or wears a headband? cause she's an angel with a halo !

[MsAnnee80]

Dead can dance, m'accompagnait dans tous mes voyages, toute ma jeunesse

[stomachlining]

I'm leaving my body .... thanks

[1supkillsbats1]

@stomachlining haha amazing, that crowd is sooooo lucky!!

[imagodtoya]

You lucky bunch in Europe...We never get to see DCD live down here in New Zealand even though Brendan start his music career here....Go on forget God Zone you meanies....

[aussiechickdiana]

It takes great spiritual development to sing like this. No lessons required; just a tender, loving heart, and good lungs.

[martywhitevan]

[Papatauenga]

This performance...is calming me as I write this...had a very bad, violent situation earlier...thanks for you all, for saying "wow", for saying "this song is exquisite"...thank you...I need you all, at this moment...I needed this "desert song"...*bows to all who love Dead Can Dance"

[xXJasmin81Xx]

wow



[luvchoclabs]

Yea you can tell who had money for a couple of lines.

[MemoryOfTheRose]

this song is exquisite,.. love how that random guy in the background is jumping up and down haha

[torrent820]

this band is on some next level shit. they're one of the best to have ever made music. dude's voice is the greatest. We need more bands like this.

[merdammuffita]

I love this song.

[TheNinjaIke]

This is rather magnificent, no, BREATHTAKING :)

[gyqz]

6 dislikes??? those people are going against nature!!

[admirahongos]

Music of and for the drug addicts.

Música de y para los drogadictos.

Музон для укурков.

[yutu22222]

@admirahongos lol.... u dont get it.......  THEY DONT NEED DRUG

[lionavids]

who is lisa gerard

[Thesortvokter]

@lionavids I think she's an elven queen sent from another dimension to deliever us...

[lionavids]

@Thesortvokter the blonde chic? shes cool

[Thesortvokter]

@lionavids Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry made up the nucleus of Dead Can Dance.

To get a feel for their music you should check out Cantara, fourth choice (here anyway) from the top right column.

Nothing like them in the world. Also, you can check out their discography on discogs. com, best music database I know of.

The albums up to and including "Aion" are the best in my personal view.

[siouxsieandziggy]

Saw the concert....lovely and breath taking!!!!!!!!

[experimentalactor]

creepy and excellent musicians!

[MaxxHark]

This is the creepiest band ever and I love it.

[rouxeau14]

wicked!

[LEGOFFMARTINEAU]

Brendan Perry is also a fu.... awesome singer...

[goticamedieval009]

Dead Can Dance is so spiritual and mystic¡ Lisa Gerrard has an amazing voice¡

[votumseparatum1]

That guy jumping up and down is so high. LOL. 

[garyrgilbert]

@votumseparatum1 ANANMAL ANAMAL (muppet show)

[Bigatinius]

@votumseparatum1 Τhe result of wonderfull music

[RyanB429]

@votumseparatum1 lol i was sooo thinking that guy totally got ahold of an 8ball before the show.....but of course didnt want to offend anyone so im glad you kinda said it first

[dimmube]

@votumseparatum1 he has duracell batteries in his back , great song by the way

[ContraereaSerba]

In my opinion this kind of songs fit as soundtrack or anyway as a background music...Because after a while, it becomes obsessive...

[Hellbent1950]

So wonderful...They take many genre,culture,sound and effect and seemlessly weave them into a tapestry of musical ecstasy...

[CamilaStar]

this music hypnotizes me

[Destruction3402]

That jumping dude with the drums is so funny!! :D

[rr68able]

@Destruction3402

It's tribal dancing, not ridiculous or meant to be funny.

[Destruction3402]

@rr68able Man, you're taking the world way too seriously... I was not meaning to be disrespectful...

[rr68able]

@Destruction3402

the problem is that most people don't take it seriously enough. There's a time to relax and a time to seriously take things into account, many relax too much and let bad things happen. Like the quote goes, "Evil prevails when good men do nothing."

Course this has nothing to do with your "dance" comment, just pointing it out.

[Destruction3402]

@rr68able I won't take this discussion any further, one can be misunderstood in so many ways it perplexes me... Let's just both agree that this is an awesome performance.

[rr68able]

@Destruction3402

I'm just saying too many people "laugh" about things they don't understand. I'm not saying you're making fun of the dance or don't understand it, I'm just saying too many people insult it because they don't understand it.

[Destruction3402]

@rr68able I agree with you on that, it's not ok to laugh AT someone, one better laugh WITH that person! :)

[Shafranify]

Be galo gera daina.

[MarnixBoZ]

Lol the drummerlooks like a Retard

[SCOTCHSOLACE]

Just incredible - Dead Can Dance consistently produces the most amazing music I have ever heard. Astoundingly beautiful!

[chrisstrattman]

HOW CAN ANYONE NOT LIKE THIS!?? Guess they just don't get it...

[cachamos]

@chrisstrattman

I know people don,t like this kind a music, because they don,t have the enough heart to see beyond the reality..,and our reality is base on history of the humanity and this music exceed our human history, that,s a fact.

[votumseparatum1]

@cachamos LMAO. You could've just said people have different tastes instead of that silly rhetoric.

[AntaresInScorpius]

4 people are gay.

[siouxsieandziggy]

to you STUPID idiots...no they are not married and NO the drummers are not on acid....weak minded people get over it and learn before you post!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[siouxsieandziggy]

They RULE!!!!!!! Wish they would get back together....saw them once....it was wonderful!

[nocpain]

dead can dance ....la primera vez q oi de esta agrupacion fue de un tape hace ya mucho tiempo. pero cada vez q los oigo se me erisa la piel y lagrimas intentan salir ala luz .......no se de donde sacaran tanto talento

[LordEli]

So are those 2 married? I have always wondered that

[g0thicicecream]

@LordEli they had a relationship at one point

[klaritavital]

muito doido esse som!

[CosmicSeaman]

The drummers acid trip never really ended.

[NBjam77]

@CosmicSeaman haha true i ll have some of wateva he had:D

[2GWSR5]

[gilamonster001]

zuhoeren und geniessen !!!!!

[szalonegacie]

[solnegrolunaroja]

I love Dead Can Dance, but every time I see this I can't help it, the percussionist is very much alike Animal from the Muppets! XD He's awesome (Animal too)!

[Gravedigger35000]

Je sais même pas comment il fait pour ne pas avoir de crampes aux doigts... respect, Brendan ^^

[Ghat801]

this is zenning me the fuck out.

[CityPriestess]

@Ghat801 hilarious

[lukalunar]

alberne mittelalter-kacke

[saberdam]

@lukalunar

Klingt so als würdeste auch gute Mittelaltermusik kennen?Kennste welchen?

Welche Musik ist Mittelalter welche nicht?Warum ist das Mittelaltermusik, ich kenne 1000 Sounds die diese Art haben?

Bist du wirklich so ungebildet und intolerant oder einfach nur stumpf und dumm?

Lass dir eins sagen, beides ist nicht vom Vorteil!

[mccallwildrose]

real trance for all those with the souls to hear it

[age68]

the drummer keeps time for mother nature.

[Ghat801]

@age68 fucking laughed my sox off. clever wit - got to be british?

[keytoothed]

I like how the drummer puts his whole body into it. Beautiful.

[rowan729]

that dude is talented, keeping beat with his symbals things along with singing. I can't keep a beat worth a crap thats why I play violin :)

[jasonalias]

@rowan729 i was noticing that he is playing a different rhythm on each finger cymbal and singing at the same time!!!

amazing!!!

[juancrtaebo]

Dead Can Dance the best.

[quabot]

@SKBaneTek

I didn't say the Iranians were enlightened. I said few are enlightened enough to know who the Aryans are. Iranians are among the Aryans.

The entire Indo-Aryan language group could be in the stone age and it wouldn't change my comment.

[petrgun]

i can feel the sand beingtransport by the on my face wow ty 

[rimind1]

mindblowing just beutifull

[TheStathoulakos]

its not talent is communication with God.

[MrMcmikemike]

@TheStathoulakos well to know god is to know yourself so these people must really know who the fuck they are.

[TheStathoulakos]

@MrMcmikemike actually you are so write..god is to know your inner self or better being your inner self

[DiaaBelal]

Oh my God, this is Spectacular, Terrific and Awesome.. , that think in his hands called (Sagat) in Egypt used by Bellydancers .. and i never realized how beautiful it is until now .. I love Dead Can Dance <3

[22pst]

on this dead realy can dance

[EarthaKit2]

This is more valuable than gold! Than the Stock Market! Than the Federal Government!

These are the bard s of old. The Troubadours! They're back! They said 700 yrs ago, before christianity destroyed them, that they would be back.

When the economy falls completely, When the monetory system, the dollar goes, this will be on par with food, water and seeds.

[lamond57]

These people are more open og connected with their souls, the ones that dont hear music like this, are not connected, sorry to say that<3<3<3

*love, peace and understanding*

[palehorsepalerider]

this is ancient music from the soul of aryan

[ahzmandius]

@palehorsepalerider

Do you realize that Aryan refers to northern India?

[quabot]

@ahzmandius

Very few are this enlightened. Don't forget the Iranians too, including all those who speak ( or spoke ) Iranian languages, like the Pashto, Dari, Alans, Sarmatians, Persians, etc.

[ahzmandius]

@quabot

Of course! Nice to see another educated person out there! I salute you!

[quabot]

@palehorsepalerider

These people seem too light-skinned to me to be Aryan. They more likely of Western European, i.e. Celtic or Germanic descent.

[peaceiloveyou2]

Lisa Gerrard is spellbinding. Dead Can Dance and her make some absoulutely breathtaking music together.

[ErikJoeNoise02]

saw them in Sao Paulo, Brazil, back in 95, 96 I guess, just before they split ..

it was really a classic and almost religious experience!!!

[DeezineArtist]

Beautiful music-infectious!

[sphinxpuzzle]

Their performance live is like a religious experience = transformational (it was for me anyway!!)

[bound2fitebtch]

did you just call me a retard cause if you did than **** YOU

[doshia78]

I agree. Don't just hear it!

[lametrieousp]

this is like the 70s man.

[Esekandar]

How do you call the instrument the singer is playing with his fingers?

[klingterra]

@Esekandar

They're called zills

[guilo8]

fantastic!!!

[harmony1c]

never seen them perform, thank you!

[cheapy2006]

check out the determination on her face at 1:40

[javajules]

I've never seen the instrument she was playing before. Very, very cool!

[anthonyjanetireph]

theres only one drum up there i wanna bang and i think its first name is lisa.

[cheapy2006]

fwooooaaaaarrrrr!

[Bambostix45]

Slave Drum, is an amazing song as well, but they are experimental music with no walls.

[minusirony]

Wow He is amazing!

[sleepingTitania]

Brilliant... I love this....

[JeffdetH]

The chick in the back jumpin up and down at the beggining lmao OH SHIT ITS A DUDE LMAO!!!

[santoro19782]

[DrizztDeUrden]

Lisa Gerard + 'yang qin' instrument = AWESOME

[quimanel]

kick in the brain

[HammandClov]

you know you are cool when you're in your own world, letting the music take ou, while jumping up and down as if you were on some substance or having the worst case-scenario of having to pee. Hell, I'd be going crazy if I was performing a great song like this too.

[goticaborderline]

beautiful song¡¡hermosa cancion¡¡¡¡ los amo la musica de dead can dance trajo mucha paz a mi vida gracias =)en especial la profunda voz de lisa gerrard thanks..

[therealMarcoman]

It would be better without singing, but it´s ok.

[Onlydreamin1959]

Such a blend of cultures in this song. hauntingly beautiful, but with an edge.

[DearDunia]

[matthewcallow]

Look at the bouncy dude on the drums!!! :-)

[becolmakom]

although the music is not bad, i find it difficult to take the bearded finger-cymbals player seriously ... not to mention the dancing drummer who reminds me of animal from the muppets' band

[iPoopedInYourSink]

We mellowed out a friend a few years back who had taken too many mushrooms. He is now this bands number one fan. Thank you DCD!

[PrettyTigerlilly]

Lisa really looks like an angel. She sounds like one too, even though she is not singing here.

[sirona30]

I feel like running hard and fast when I hear this song

[Taunebet]

love DCD. Beautiful music and beutiful voices of Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerard

[zwrtkt]

lets face it.. this is bollocks compared with real arabic music..

[SSL9000J]

Bollocks you say? Perhaps you could direct us to some 'real' arabic music so that we may judge for ourselves.

[8Hierophant8]

these people have more talent in the grime under their fingernails than you could ever hope to possess in a life time of trying - so sod the fuck off you twat.

[rimind1]

@8Hierophant8 totaly!

[euroserf]

So Eloquently put and I can only concur...talent galore !

[rr68able]

@8Hierophant8

I've always wanted to shoot down retarded pop music celebrities who actually believe their music is good with a shotgun named, "Dead Can Dance, bitches".

[Hyardacil]

It's not Arabic music...

And it's not bollocks.

So...

[dancewiththesky]

The finest music and voices

[Requimem]

There are some songs which take you to some other place... no substances, just being.

[kantamicina]

no coment, just listen :)
