Tinariwen 'Cler Achel' (Taken from 'Live In London' DVD)

[edwardsrubyg]

Life is a mirror showing in different forms yet the same... absolutely amazing...!



[razmoe2000]

this is a very good version of this song. thanks.Peace

[Cordoba82]

To Christopholese: If we were to use Tuareg clothing wherever we went, we would spend hours detained at airports, stores, banks, etc. The clothing is not part of any religion, it is a need for those who live in the desert!

[bettyfriendly]

just seen them on THE COLBERT REPORT.

pretty impressive. fascinating, actually.

[nachillyo]

NATO is killing their people! Such a shame!

[hashpipeblueball]

This song always puts me in a fantastic mood. Wonderfully hypnotic.

[ariesfairies]

hey can someone tell me what the ⵜⵏⵔⵓⵏ symbols mean?... from their cover?

[mielazul]

I recently got the Aman Iman Cd at the library, heard this song and was so blown away. I checked their band site and saw that they're playing near me in a few weeks. What luck, or magic or synchronicity. Either way, I can't wait to see them. I play some Eastern-influenced guitar by the way - check out "Rosetta West - Yallah," if you can.

[CissyStrut]

this music transports me to the same place as the doors. Saw them live two years ago, never heard them before, I N C R E I B L E

[Jalanko13]

@AvaAnnaZ never heard of them. but does it really matter?

[marvelousmj91]

listen to:

Tinariwen - Tahult In

[Johnnyzinho]

Great... muito muito bom

[NacWalrus]

man that bass player is awesome

[Sanimangas]

It kinda reminds me of Thai music. Shows how down to earth and universal Tinariwen are. (:

[Debtwarrior]

Watching this stuff is amazing - I like to imagine them looking out across a desert horizon playing this music into the still clear night over sand dunes instead of inside to a UK audience - beautiful

[Anzar2011]

Tuaregs are not same as taliban or saudi muslims, these are not islamic clothes, these cloths are for the desert, they use some blue and white clothes, the darker on the top, and it protects them from sun. and the shash (scarf) protect them from sand, you need to see the sandstorms in the Sahara and you'll understand. It normal they remove it backstage, it's not conveniant outside the desert, and they wear it in stage to show their identity.

Tuaregs are "culturaly" muslims but not extremist.

[scorpian8king]

i like the hardcore deathmetal but this is awesome

[GuitarWalshy]

I don't have it to hand, but I know in the DVD there's an option to view song-lyrics in translation whilst the track plays... quite a nice feature.

[tammuz100]

Great song does anyone have the translation. or just an over idea of what the song means???

[19AHLY07]

Desert Rebel + Tinariwen Are Unbeliveable !!!!

[rida16eme]

come to algeria visite tamenrassete

[Jonasboll]

Please answer this! Why don't they use their "tuareg-clothes" when they are back stage??? I thought the clothing was part of their religion.

[Christopholese]

@Jonasboll - they don't, because it isn't.

[tofermauerhan]

@Christopholese Thank god someone answered this poor confused person.

[Jalanko13]

@Jonasboll lol.dumbo.

[OutlawzAK]

@Jonasboll

The clothes are part of Environment they're exposed to, which also become part of them culture and music.

[iamun89]

@Jonasboll : No, thei clothing is not part of their religion!

[iamun89]

@Jonasboll : No, their clothing is not part of their religion!

[BELABBES]

@Jonasboll the clothes are not a part of the religion ! its there culture and tradition...its very good in the desert against the hot sun, but when they in europe why should wear that clothes.

[RalphMarx]

@Jonasboll no , just culture 

[firsthandstudio]

The more I hear this band the more I love them, it just gets better and better.

[BigCM06]

the guitar and percussion work in Tinariwen is amazing enough as it is.

but then they just drop in that bass, it slides in like it was never missing, and the beauty of the music begins to radiate outwards like nothing else I've ever heard.

I feel sorry for anyone who has not yet discovered Tinariwen, for they are still lost.

[saxontheroad66]

It´s only rock and roll, pá!!!

[NadiaaibaN]

@saxontheroad66

not rock is the traditional music of touareg ..touareg,,,????-- not the BMW cars.....

Touareg People ..Africa, the source of ALL music

[campbra]

For thouse who like Tinariwen, I think you're gonna enjoy this sound:

1- Duman - Aman Aman (Turquia)

2- Idir - Ava Inouva (Argélia)

3- Hassan Hakmoun (Marocco)

[hamjamnspamalot2]

@campbra I was JUST going to mention Hassan Hakmoun, he's great! Will check out the others you mentioned too. Algerian Raï music is also fascinating as well.

[1st verse/Chorus:] I spend the day and still the following night I spent a whole season travelling I spend the day and still the following night I spent a whole season travelling [2nd verse:] You've gone, Mila, you've already gone and I've plunged deeper into my dreams Whatever my thoughts, she occupies them all, and my heart cries out still [3rd verse:] I's a time which separates the beloved from those they love And when you think of them, painful obsessive thoughts are all that come.

[sergiobiscoitao]

Inacreditavelmente bom. Adorei.

[campbra]

@sergiobiscoitao Eles tocaram na abertura da Copa Mundial da FIFA 2010. Foi lá que eu descobri esta banda, acho que você também, não é?

Todas as músicas são boas assim. Já me tornei um fã.

[azer608]

tinariwen  desert algeria

[wfisico]

Muito bom! Conheci a banda assistindo o show de abertura da copa do mundo! Gostei!

[campbra]

@wfisico Eu também. Depois fui atrás de outras músicas desse grupo. Até agora, gostei de todas. É o tipo de banda que me converte a fã. Gosto muito de música folclórica. O Tinariwen tem espiritualidade, tradição e melodias fantásticas.

[campbra]

Please, more videos! This band is awesome!

Greetings from Brazil.

[dosgardenias1]

@campbra yes it is really wonderful!!!!!!! thank you! it is already my favourite! :-)

[campbra]

Amazing, as hypnotic as a mantra! Tinariwen has now a new fan.

[Tullzter]

This is...Beautiful..their music will go down in history..

[GoatLaddy]

I too was fortunate to see them live in chicago on the Feb 28th. 1st time seeing them and I can sum it up in one word-- TRANSCENDENT.

[JazzFlute2009]

I love Tinariwen. Caught them twice in Chicago last night and once more tonight. Amazing. One of the best bands out there today!

[imiocic]

this is so ...... out of this world!!! or is this THE real world!! this music is - LIFE!!

rock hard ride free!

[bennettonix]

Berber music nice!

[marwane2006]

AWESOME

[Globalizing]

GROOVY!

[onamemmet]

i think the bass player is playing a right-handed axe upside down; takes some skill!

[drpimento]

Man, these guys are great! Would be aces to see them live. Got all their CDs now. Dvd next. BRAVO!!!

[RainPoetry]

When I listen to this, it reminds of the Real, more than any sound. Mystics understand me...  Tinariwen brings one closer to the Divine.

[MrBIOLO]

رائع جدا جدا

superbe merci

[inibo]

After about of week of listening to everything I could find, not just of them but of other ishoumar and Amazigh musicians, I'm ready to call Tinariwen the best rock rand on Earth right now--or at least the best guitar band. I can hear what I liked best in the Beatles, the Byrds, Led Zepplin and Creedence. mixed in with a little Dr. John They real beauty is they are not copying or mimicking anything. They are drinking from the same well.

This is not world music, it is Earth music.

[RainPoetry]

@inibo I agree with you, but I think their music far surpasses all those 'Western' bands that you mentioned, with maybe the exception of Creedence. it's the hint of mournful passion and a spiritually felt grief in Tinariwen and other 'folk' music (like Creedence) that lends it a beauty that in my opinion the Beatles can't even come close to. That may be controversial to say, but that's what I think.

[anikgol]

@inibo i agree!! well put

[DonRico333]

@inibo AMEN

[vaipar75]

Today 1-7-09 live in Athens!!!

[luxuria65]

Wow, wow, wow!! I need more, please!

[babarji]

I was so glad to have been at this brilliant gig

[inibo]

The more I hear them the more I like them. They are my favorite right now. At first the singing was off-putting, but it's really starting to worm its way in. They make me want to dance. And I'm old.

This is about the best youtube of them I've seen so far.

[kapdrums]

[SigurRos82]

Desert blues forever, whoa :)

[jass23dz]

this song is amazing !!

hope to see them one day !!

[petrisz]

I've seen them in a professional and very solemn concert hall in Europe where people go on concerts wearing suit and like. Their music is so uplifting that most people stood up and danced by the end of the concert :)

[enaouaoui]

i love this band very much!!

[endofsomething]

I met this band and I have to say they were extremely friendly. Music was ace too. Couldn't stop dancing all night, mesmerising!

- C sXe

[anti6467]

AMAZING,,I LOVE THIS

[Elaneban]

That bass playing is amazing! Tinariwen have soo much heart in their music... All the best music has heart in it!

[KanjiHanzi]

This is one of the VERY best rock/blues/folk/etc. recordings to ever be put on a CD. Ever! -Search on tinariwen cler achel for the studio version here! - It was a knock out to listn to "Aman Iman", where Cler Achel opens up, the first time, the second time .... Fortunately the entire record wasn't HAIR-RAISING to *exactly* the same degree (but still a SUPER-CD!!) :-) Thanks, Tinariwen!

[bambara4]
