@ilmagnificosnello Thanks

I really liked it to play with the music and this material

It makes you stand still (as a plaster statue !)

[peanuts8]

this shit is sad man if you were feeling low before watching this video and hearing her sing then i know your ass is on the floor now that's how sad this shit is maan!

[HailTheOri]

The Pompeii corpses always make me want to cry, and this just makes it even more so. To be caught forever in your worst moment of despair and helplessness. This song amplifies every bit of sorrow I feel for these people, and the fact that I am helpless and unable to reach across time and take their hands and pull them to safety, or at least comfort them.

[philipApart]

@HailTheOri  Beautifull thoughts, and I think by sending out love and comfort, you can reach anyone at anyplace and in any time.

[peanuts8]

@HailTheOri dude do you realize how long ago that was....79AD that was hella long time ago dude, you'll have to get jesus to help you out with that one, brotha!

[jesusaremus]

Hello! i hope someone can help me, i need to find some music like this one, not only from lorena, but i need like this song.

[Abigailjms]

you could try Lisa Gerrard; a very enchanting vocalist, whom did the background music for Gladiator, 300, and many other soundtracks, but she does have albums of music she's done with 'The Dead Can Dance', which is another group you can try. You might try Jocelyn Pook and Enigma, as well.

[jesusaremus]

hey! thanks a lot! i'm gonna look for it, again thank you so much :)

[Abigailjms]

your very welcome...anytime! ;)

[troglodyto]

@jesusaremus more specifically, what do you mean "like this"?

[jesusaremus]

hello

Alright i'll try to be more specific, i'm looking for music with some choirs, like this type of choir. of a woman singing for example "mercy in darkness" by two steps from hell or nocturne by secret garden. Thans a lot

[ssssroryssss2]

I found this beautiful track on the episode of "Due South" called "Chinatown" :)

[jnunes07]

me too. it fit the scene perfectly. awesome song/awesome episode. total awesomeness.

[ssssroryssss2]

I got the whole series as an xmas pressent for my sister. I decide to make a copy for and myself and I forgot how good Due South was. Yeah that scene was excellent and moving. I'm surprised that anyone involved in writing Trance music hasn't had a go at doing a remix. :)

[Lenu7]

one my favorites scenes from DS - thanks perfect choice of music . excellent

[wolfvander]
