Tinariwen, Amassakoul 'N' Tenere.

[tarik666gothic]

We invite you to listen this song in our desert, the sahara is more than sand, no one can explain, you must live it.

Lyrics Part 2;

You who are organized

assembled, walking together

Hand in hand, you're living

A path which is empty of meaning

In truth, you're all alone.

[alenhere]

Lyrics Part 1; I am a traveler in the lone desert It's nothing special I can stand the wind I can stand the thirst And the sun I know how to go and walk Until the setting of the sun In the desert, flat and empty, where nothing is given My head is alert, awake I have climbed up and climbed down The mountains where I was born I know in which caves the water is hidden These worries are my friends I'm always on familiar terms with them and that Gives birth to the stories of my life

[Ansariya]

For me its like a whole new world has opened, listening to this music, this fantastic band. Never heard of them,spend the whole day listening to them yesterday and continue today - the world I'm in is not new, its old - for me - a 28 year old girl, born in Belgium, my roots lay in North Africa, Morocco, Nador... Tamazight! I love this - its like my heart and soul reconnected with the souls of my antsestors.

Stunning - captivating - and touches my deepest core!

[MrFbenzo]

@Ansariya I think we share the same feeling, i have been listening to them for a week now and i am driving everyone insane at home especially with this song. Only too bad i do not understand them because i am from holland and have my roots in El Hoceima, Morocco. bnitouzin

Long life to the Tuareg people indeed, my friend.

[proteanview]

Incredible. I love music that is inspired by something so unrelated to my known way of life. Finally, something fresh.
