This is the first song I heard by Loreena. It was featured on the show Due South. That led me to buy the c.d. and I have been a fan ever since. Excellent photo shots.
Same here, heard it also many years ago on Due South. Love this. Met Paul Gross 2 years ago at the Menin Gate ceremony,Ieper. Talk about his movie, Passchendaele, and asked who did the soundtrack. Told him I was hoping for James Horner and Loreena . But the soundtrack was already made.
From her album liner notes (Loreena McKennitt, who wrote it) and she is talking about listening to men chanting in a Mosque in the morning on a trip to Morocco. She is talking about the bells ringing and the brothers (in Quebec) on their way to Mass. She is talking about ways of connecting to God. She spends a lot of time researching all of her songs.
I hope that someday someone will do a music video that fits the meaning of the song. If you read the lyrics, it seems to be about criticising religion. You have to read the lyrics. This is one of my favourite songs! No one has to do a video that fits the lyrics, but it would be sooooo nice.... I wish I knew what the instruments were though. They sound so Japanese. Beautiful...
Brian Hughes, electric sitar, George Koller, esraj, Loreena McKennitt, vocals, dumbeg, synthesizer.
I love this song as it speaks to the many names of God, yet questions whether or not we get all of the vital answers we need to live in peace - both with ourselves and with others.
This song never gets old
