The more I listen to Diamande the more I understand her..At the beginning I was scared to death by her voice..I'm still scared but I have understood that this is a style deeply connected to tghe meaning she tries to convey..She is like an ancient Sibylla..I am convinced that she intentionaly recreates the ritual view of music as catharsis

[iosonostrano]

Genius!

[niva2gr]

Just a little correction: The song is not named "Keigomai-Keigomai". It is "Kegomai-Kegomai", without an "i".

[themistoklas]

i am Burning, i am burning

throw more fuel into the fire

i am drowning, i am drowning

throw me in a deep sea

[dukedelouben]

actually is ''kaigomai'' and means ''I'm on fire''

[LASERPENTA]

What's English for "Keigome Keigome"? Is it something religious?

[soniramsonitnatsnok]

kaigomai= i'm burning

[LASERPENTA]

Thank you!

You helped me to end a poem. It's about a young girl that has been sended to Minos'Labyrinth, in Creta. She's waiting to be killed by the Minotaur.

[soniramsonitnatsnok]

i'd love to read this poem!..sounds really interesting!

[BadBloodwillout]

@LASERPENTA this is about a girl in Minos' Labyrinth? What makes you think that?

[LASERPENTA]

Not the song itself. I was just looking for a sentence in greek to complete the poem and i decided to use it. I compared the terrible feeling of being waiting for one's death with the sensation of burning oil...

[BadBloodwillout]

@LASERPENTA οοοοh! That sounds good :)

[konig82]

Im burning, Im burning, put more oil in the fire...

[abandoned83]

@LASERPENTA it means I am Burning I am Burning
