"Tango to Evora" was used in the National Film Board of Canada documentary The Burning Times. A cover to the song has been recorded by one of Greece's most popular and respected singers, Haris Alexiou, entitled "Nefeli's Tango", with lyrics written by herself. Another cover to the song has been recorded by Turkish singer, Nilüfer, entitled "Çok Uzaklarda". Evora is an historical city in Portugal.
I think the photos worked like magick...they seemed to combine well with the music to produce a myriad of emotions and thoughts that seem to stem from a very deep place. Loved it!
Excelente o vídeo,as fotos estão lindíssimas,a maior parte delas,maravilhoso.
Excelent the video,the pictures are so beautiful,major part of them, really wonderful. (Vi vários comentários em linguas diferentes,não sabia em qual delas você entende,então resolvi escrever em duas) ps.excelente escolha da trilha sonora.
I think almost for sure Xaris Alexiou has only made a cover of Tango to Evora. The music is written by Loreena McKennitt. This song was released on The Visit, an McKennitt's album, in 1991.
In 1996, she writes then lyric for "Nefeli's Tango" on Loreena McKennit's music. This song along with other live recordings from her concerts around the world, is included in the album Around the World '92-'96. "Nefeli's Tango", for several months is one of the ten top songs of World Music in Europe.
@aniretakDB007 NOPE SHE DIDN'T WROTE THIS MUSIC SHE HAS BORROWED IT FROM TURKEY.... THE SONG CALLED SO FARAWAY IN TURKISH. HERE'S THE PROOF watch?v=yReQRaXs1_c&feature=related
@hasanozcelik She did write this song a lot of artists borrowed the music to write other versions in their own language. Haris Alexiou also borrowed the music and at least credited Loreena for the music.

@thekiddeathzone little idiot???oh my god so mature to insulte someone on youtube for asking a simple question.i never said this song isn't loreena's. honestly insulting me for that and two years later?????lol
I'm sure the two years later was on the part that no one ever reads that crap. But on the other person's defense, your words from two years which happen to be on the top do come off as condescending. "You see..." is already starting shit then emphasizing greece's "MOST FAMOUS" singer- you made it sound like she took if from someone more famous. People are going to defend their artists even if the comment is two years old, ignorant, and foolish.
@shedano what the hell?it was just a question for gods sake!! i asked i learned and that's the end of the story!!you could find offensive even a kids song if you wanted to!!for the last time: i never meant to say it isn't loreena's song!! i said what i said to justify my question!! of course i was ignorant that is why people ask and learn. no one knows everything...except you of course...now you can feel all superior and clever against the stupid person who had the grit not to know everything!
Says the person rampaging like a hippo- those things are violent!- I told you HOW your question seemed offensive especially since it was at the top of the comments page leading most people to see as rather new when it's not. I was defending why the person would see you as such. This person defended an artist that you were initially in that old comment blatantly offensive. Then you get offensive back. Of course it works that way! Just a question can be just as insulting.
