"La Califfa" By: Sahand

This song was composed by Ennio Morricone and was performed on Sarah Brightman's album La Luna. I hope you enjoy my take on it.

Thank you to LOUISE SCRYMGEOUR for her beautiful poem "Perfect" in which I feature in this piece.

Perfect: By Louise Scrymgeour
It's perfect, and touches me deep
First thing in the morning, when I hear you speak
And last thing at night as you bid me sweet dreams
The brush of your lips lets me know what you mean

And all of the hours that pass through the day
Those spent together and when you're away
I think of you always, imagine your touch
Think how to show you, I love you so much

So when we're apart, and you long for me near
Just try to remember, you're already here
For deep in my heart, where no one can see
You'll be forever, together we'll be

Wow...that was awesome. This happens to be my all-time favorite song (crazy since I'm a die-hard metalhead) and you did a fantastic job singing it.

[GetinHighOnLife]

@blackVmetal THANKS!

Well it is very interesting, I think Metalheads and classic lovers always have a sort of bond when it comes to their music and can appreciate things in both of them. They are both powerful and emotive. You should look up Sarah Brightman's Fleurs Du Mal!

[blackVmetal]

@GetinHighOnLife Actually that's another one of my favorites songs she performs! I have pretty much every album she's recorded. :-) And you're right, there is a definite link between the two genres. There tends to be a heavy baroque influences (as well as classical and romantic...but I tend to pick out the baroque quicker).

[GetinHighOnLife]

@blackVmetal Wow you have good taste! :)

I hope to post up something more metal sounding like "Sleeping Sun"

May I inquire how can I acquire the instrumental of this La Califfa and Nessun Dorma?

[GetinHighOnLife]

@GLOBIQ sure! La califfa is on Itunes. Im sure Nessun Dorma is as well. The good version is on Sarahs instrumental set that she sells on her website!

You sang this beautifully and one of my favorite songs! nellie49

[vajra39]

Sarah Brightman's version can't come even close to your cover version. You have the voice and the heart, and also the special touch of sensitivity that the best singers are born with.

I love Sarah Brightman

[Gothar2002]

[melroseblack]

BEAUTIFUL AS ALWAYS I LOVE YOUR JOB AND YOUR TASTES ARE THE BEST... I wish you the best

[CKatEZlistenChannel]

What a wonderful voice you have. This is a joy!

@GetinHighOnLife Thanks, so do you! "Sleeping Sun" is definitely one of my top favorites of Nightwish's catalogue. Go for it!
