  • what if we play it on backward... (:

  • i love this song

  • 10 peoples doesn't return to innocence

  • for me this is a spiritual song

  • ES LA HISTORIA DE NUESTRA VIDA O NO? ME FASCINA!!!

  • this makes my soul wake up & dance

  • A Jonathan Taylor Thomas Movie brought me here

  • @hitindahead Man of the House??

  • @nkfkdkdjk haha that would be it. Brings me back to my childhood

  • thumb up if cold case brought you here years ago!

  • remember the baby in your self

  • "Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children."

  • @johnlourdes

    What do you mean?

  • This was originally inspired by Native Taiwanese folk song.

  • Don't be afraid to be weak, don't be too proud to be strong.. just look into your heart my friend, that will be the return to yourself - the return to innocence

  • don't know why, but I'm crying...maybe because it was one of the first songs I ever heard in my life?

  • ezt a zenét soha nem lehet megunni!!!!

  • @gabriella19600305

    Szerintem se... :)

  • q hermosura de musica ... este si es musica de verdad... no daña ni ofende a nadie

  • cool

  • TO BYŁY CZASY.

    BIESZCZADY PŁONĄ.

  • its time for everybody to return to that sacred place..

  • I played this when my kitty of 13 years died....I was so devistated....yea it's a cat...but he was "my" cat. I miss you big kitty Love you so much.

  • @Mizzlovah4u2c36 He wasn't just a cat. The love you had for your kitty was and is just as real as human love. I will be devastated when my cat passes on.

  • gracias por esa genialidad al componer y por tu gran vos enigma tiene muchas canciones muy buenas no solo return to innocence , esta sadeness , mea culpa , the rivers of belief , i love you ... i ll kill you , beyond the invisible, tnt for the brain, gravity of love , voyageur , la puerta del cielo , son muchas mas que no mensiono , la vos de cretu en enigma 3 es maravillosa , en fin cada quien piensa lo que quiera , pero lo que no se puede negar es la trayectoria , el exito , y la buena musica.

  • mas jovenes se acercaron a conocer mas sobre la religion catolica , y yo particularmente desde que conoci enigma 2 me acerque a conocer mas sobre el hinduismo y todo lo que tiene que ver con el oriente , enigma es mas que musica , es un proyecto maravillo , que gracias a cretu podemos disfrutar, tanta musica y tantas voces que si no es por el tal ves nunca las hubieramos conocido, por eso como fan de enigma le agradesco infinitamente a cretu por regalarnos su creatividad . gracias cretu!!!!!!!

  • nisiquiera Dan Lacksman uno de los productores de deep forest que le creo otra version al coro pudo superar la de enigma!! a mi me parece admirable el trabajo que a realizado michael cretu con enigma , el hizo que toda esa musica que generalmente no gusta tanto ni es tan comercial valiera la pena , el la produce de una manera muy atractiva incluso para la gente joven , que es un publico conquistado por enigma , tanto que el vaticano agradecio a enigma ya que desde que se lanzo enigma 1

  • aun asi cretu le dio el respectivo credito a Kuo Ying-nan y lo compenso economicamente , la disquera magic records de taiwan era la que estaba detras de la demanda , claro todos queremos dinero . el mal entendido se arreglo entonces por que se hacen tanto lio por algo que paso hace mas de 10 años?? Kuo Ying-nan murio en el 2002 y return to innocence es un hito que nisiquiera imitadores han logrado superar!! y lo que hizo grande la cancion no es solo el coro si no la union de elementos .

  • el coro que originalmente pertenece a la etnia de los AMI se llama "jubilant drinking song" y se encontraba en el dominio publico . En respuesta a estas demandas, un representante local de Taiwan industria discográfica, de la Asociación de titulares de los derechos de grabación, dijo que la música popular estaba en el dominio público!!! y la población aborigen que ha realizado o dispuesto su voz no podía reclamar ningún derecho de autor sobre ella!! .

  • return to innocence es un claro ejemplo , cretu mezclo elementos separados por continentes , y por culturas , uniendo occidente y oriente , un canto trival oriental con elementos occidentales pop de los 70 tipo led zeppelin , creo una fusion perfecta entre la musica y la voz!! ademas de mezclar compuso una letra que como las maximas de confusio en pocas palabras deja un mensaje contundente que te cuestiona y te llega al alma!! eso es tener creatividad .

  • enigma es un concepto de musica muy diferente a las demas , michael cretu es filosofo y atraves de la musica el deja un mensaje filosofico, el es productor , ingeniero de sonido , compositor , mezclador , cantante etc. una de las cosas maravillosas de enigma es la combinacion de elementos que estan por separado, no todos los elementos el los invento , pero lo admirable es como mezcla de una forma magistral todos los elementos.

  • YOU ASKED FOR THE SECOND TIME Difang WAS RECOGNIZED ARRANGEMENT THE PROBLEM THEN YOU TALK SO MUCH SHIT Answer me THAT ONLY NOW AND LEAVE THE SUBJECT TO HERE I'm tired of TRANSLATE IF YOU WANT TO BE TALKING TO SPEAK MY LANGUAGE ENGLISH NOT I'LL RESPOND

  • (Random thought: EMI's music division was sold to UMG this past November. Just something to think about.)

  • @TheCreature81 EMI SEE IF IT WAS SOLD TO UNIVERSAL AND IT IS!! AND I DO NOT CARE WHAT YOU THINK YOUR COMMENTS ARE FEW WELL AS IMPORTANT IS YOU IF YOU DO NOT LIKE ENIGMA IS YOUR PROBLEM IS THE STORY I ME AND YOU SAY THE SAME PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED BY THE TRIAL NOT WIN NO DEMAND Difang

  • @TheCreature81 the point is that everything is under I ask you what your problem?????????? return to innocence is a perfect song like it or not Enigma is a multicultural project and not going to stop being just because you do not like enigma live forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!! i love enigma thanks michael cretu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

  • @FELIPE3802 I want you to look back at my original comment and read it. In full. Then I want you to go back much *further* and look at an angry comment by "kainashhsu". My comment—the Wikipedia one—was *supposed* to be a reply to HIM **disproving HIS allegations.** HIS allegations were that Enigma should be sued; my response is "it's been dealt with." My _problem_ is that _you_ waltzed in, walked up, and started screaming at me while making angry statements with NO evidence.

  • @FELIPE3802 On another note: claiming to work for EMI and then using angry unprofessional statements with lots of exclamation points and what appears to be a fanatical zeal for a single band suggests one of two possibilities: 1. you are lying to me OR 2. you *are* an actual employee—and your superiors should be notified *immediately* that you have taken it upon yourself to do the duties of their legal department for them. Other people read these comments; someone will notice you.

  • Peaceful transformation of the heart ~

  • I've been searching for the original video of this song,this is one of my favorites...surprisingly, there are already a lot of version of this song...thanks spartacus, you saved this video...

  • this song brings me far far away .... love the song....

  • el que puso q era buena es un chupabolas

  • @manuel17346 QUE IDIOTA !!! ESA CANCION ES UN HITO MUSICAL EN EL MUNDO, PERO SI NO TE GUSTA EL QUE SE TIENE QUE ABRIR DEL PARCHE ES USTED IMBECIL!!!

  • cancion gey

  • @manuel17346 Y NO TIENE NADA DE GAY , LAS QUE SON GAYS SON OTRAS Y LAS ENCUENTRAS EN OTRO LADO LOCA!!!!

  • que video tan malo abrance

  • this song makes me so sad and im 12

  • @XXxsapphirex It isn't meant to make you sad. It's meant to say when you die you're returned to innocence. Death isn't something to be afraid of :) You're 12 enjoy life. :D

  • this song makes me so sad and im 12

  • i will died with this song...

  • Oh and guys: there's no need to be abusive to one another. Information settles disputes, not volume. You want people to listen to you and respect you, speak to them and they will hear your words; scream at them and all they will hear is screaming. (And then they will completely ignore you.)

  • Crying again.

  • YO QUIERO REGRESAR A SER UN ESPERMATOSIODE Y MORIR EN EL CAMINO.....

  • @sucidame Mejor aún ... nunca pasar de espermátide XD o de Oocito

  • THE BEST SONG

  • one of the best practical videos ever

  • perfect music

  • Thnx God Enigma is not a "one hit wonder" this song & Sadeness made new age music so popular in the 90's competing with pop, rap, rock, techno, ballads...

  • @momanvgu excelente comentario!!!!!!

  • @FELIPE3802 Me encanta Enigma tengo todos los discos y son una maravilla. Mi favorito es "Le Roi Est Mort, Vive Le Roi" es una obra de arte. "The Cross of Changes" también es fabuloso, "MCMXC a.D" una revelación en la música. En fin una vez que se llega a apreciar esta música y la sensibilidad de Michael Cretu es imposible dejar de escucharla.

  • This song is the perfect example of experiencing beauty by the ears....

  • Spokojna i nostalgiczna Enigma i Enya królują w takich wykonaniach

  • Fuck this, the singing at the beginning is from Taiwan's aborigine singer郭英男.

    Enigma doesn't have the right to copy this

  • @kainashhsu

    I mean the "oh e ai e ai e oh"

    the part that sounds like a old man,

    his Taiwanese aborigine

  • @kainashhsu Fuck your statement the do own the rights the case was settled out of court including royalty's. So dont go spreading false information and check your facts.

  • "In March 1998, Kuo Ying-nan (郭英男) and Kuo Hsiu-chu (郭秀珠) sued Cretu, Virgin Records, and a number of recording companies for unauthorized usage of their song without credit. The case was settled out of court for an undisclosed amount of money and all further releases of the song were credited (including royalties) to the Kuos. Cretu has stated that he had been led to believe that the recording was in the public domain, and that he did not intentionally violate the Kuos' copyright."

  • @kainashhsu Sampling law is convoluted; international sampling law is more convoluted. But usually the artist being sampled receives royalties and credit, and if everything is done through proper legal channels and an appropriate agreement is reached, the samples can be used, everybody is happy, and everybody gets paid.

  • @TheCreature81 THE CHOIR WAS IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN AND THERE WAS NOTHING ILLEGAL. DO NOT BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU SEE ON WIKIPEDIA!!!!!

  • @FELIPE3802 As I said in another comment, there is no need to be uncivil. But let's say you have a song that IS public domain. Okay, public domain; woot. But let's say it's performed by a particular orchestra and released on a commercial CD. The song is public domain; but the *performance* by that orchestra belongs to the orchestra. So if you sample that particular orchestra, you're stuck paying royalties to them or whoever represents them, and they can sue you if you don't.

  • @TheCreature81 THEN WON THE DEMAND THE CRETU

    LOST Difang KNOW THAT DEMAND?

  • @TheCreature81 I DO NOT SPEAK ENGLISH

    BUT IF YOU WANT TO SEND AS HISTORY IN SPANISH

  • Comment removed

  • @FELIPE3802 YouTube won't permit me to link a copy of the 1999 Billboard Magazine article mentioning that the singers settled with Virgin Records. The issue is dated July 31, 1999. The article is on page 14, next to a large ad for "The World Is Not Enough." Search on Google for "virgin records lawsuit enigma" without quotes, click "Books" on the lefthand side. The Billboard article should be the first result.

  • @TheCreature81 DEMAND FOR YOUR INFORMATION THE ENIGMA BECOUSE HE WON THE SHOW WAS OK IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN

  • @FELIPE3802 As I said: look up "virgin records lawsuit enigma" without quotes (e.g. "") on Google, click "Books" on the left side, stop typing everything in all-caps, and the first link at the top has an article from Billboard Magazine dated July 31 1999. They settled out of court, meaning Enigma, Virgin etc., PAID THEM and put their names in the credits of the newer CDs, and the suit went away. Ergo, they have the right to use the samples now because they give credit to the singers.

  • @FELIPE3802 "Books" in english = "Livres" en français = "Libros" en español.

  • @FELIPE3802 And I want to be very clear: typing an assertion in all-caps without citing sources does very little to help your argument. Give me the title of an article in a magazine or newspaper from the late 1990s regarding the lawsuits proving that you are correct. The lawsuit started in 1996 when the theme was used for the 1996 Olympics. The article is "Taiwan Aboriginal Singers Settle Copyright Lawsuit" by Victor Wong, Billboard, July 31, 1999, 14.

  • @TheCreature81 The demand OYO NEVER WON

  • @TheCreature81 NOTWITHSTANDING THAT THE ONLY INFORMATION WITH WHICH YOU HAVE IS WITH MAGAZINES

  • @TheCreature81 IF IT WAS TO BE COMPENSATED FOR BOTH STRESS?

  • @TheCreature81 RESOLVED BY CUTTING OUT OF THAT NEVER WON THE DEMAND Difang

  • @TheCreature81 RETURN TO INNOCENCE IS A GREAT SONG THANKS TO ENIGMA

  • @TheCreature81 And for your information I work at EMI MUSIC

  • @FELIPE3802 re: EMI - You should have stated that in the first place, and in lower case, and cited sources. For my part, I worked at a radio station for 8 years, and I specifically cited Billboard, which is a trade magazine on the music industry, because it is considered reputable. The book "Music and Technoculture by Rene T. A. Lysloff and Leslie C. Gay, Jr. gives a long detailed discussion of the lawsuit. In being "settled" there is no admission of guilt by the defendants.

  • @FELIPE3802 Still, in being "settled," you settle. You do not win; however, you do not lose. Reading further, I suspect Virgin (and by extension EMI, the parent company) would probably have won based on testimony. However, settling is faster, and easier, and honestly much safer. The point is not who won or lost; the point is that there was a lawsuit at all; to be perfectly honest, the larger point is that because it was settled, they cannot sue again.

  • @FELIPE3802 I want to be very clear here: when people talk to me in all-caps (all-capital letters / uppercase letters) I assume they are either needlessly shouting/yelling, or are kids. So I get very annoyed with them and argue.

  • @TheCreature81 EXCELLENT YOU SEE THAT I HAVE REASON do not quote anything, but I know the whole story enigma did not infringe any copyright magic records lost demand all is well that do so much trouble for the song???????????????

    return to innocence is a perfect song by enigma Difang was happy that her They were exposed in the song you what is your problem?????????????????

  • 3:26 kiss

  • Soy amante de la música... Conozco miles de canciones, miles de cantantes, de proyectos, de grupos... Y después de muuuuuuuchos años esta sigue siendo mi canción preferida. También me gusta su matriz (Elder's drinking song de Difang) pero he de admitir que esta es la perfección! Gracias a Difang y a Led Zepellin!!

  • @mmondragon05 Y GRACIAS A CRETU QUE FUE EL QUE UNIO TODOS ESOS ELEMENTOS QUE ESTABAN SEPARADOS OK!!!!

  • @FELIPE3802 Y LE AGREGO PEDAL A LA PISTA , YA QUE LA DE LED ZEPPELIN NO LO TIENE , MEJORO EL SONIDO , MEZCLO DE UNA FORMA MAGISTRAL TODOS LOS ELEMENTOS , LE CREO LA LETRA , Y LOS EFECTOS DE SONIDO, ASI QUE AGRADECE A CRETU TAMBIEN OK!!!!!

  • @08kimmy

    :(

    Sweet ♥

  • @08kimmy ma niđe veze

  • @08kimmy Why is that ? It does influence one to review the decisions that one has made in their life in the past though.

  • @sr71ablackbird I don't know. I'm just moved by the way the video shows life progress. The fact that is backwards makes it like.... more emotive. I don't know how to explain it.

  • @08kimmy I didn't take much notice of this comment at first then...I shed tears in the middle of the song and checked comments again and....!
