Like waves to the shore
Part of the ocean
The stars is high above
Part of the sky

Now I drift to you
I dream of a river
A water so blue
Wish I could live there

Wish you were here

Like the air that I breathe
You'll always be there
The wings that I need
When I wanna fly

Now I drift to you
I dream of a river
A water so blue
Wish I could live there

Wish you were here

Great Pink Floyd cover




Lion King intro.
Would be kind of funny if that male singer was just reciting the tax code in his own language.  I kinda wish record producers would prank us like that once in awhile.
What is the rest of the album like?

I love their version of Another Brick in the Wall.
Bold move to name a chill electronic tune after an iconic song from the rock canon. At first I expected yet another ho-hum cover of a much-covered track. Glad it's a completely different - and well-executed - song.
love it!
Cooking and hanging with Dave (the hubs) and I had to come in and check the score I had given it, just in case it was less than a 10...  yeah, no worries...

Although, I'm planning on not having a need for a funeral, I do understand what you you are saying. Ms. Barker has an amazing instrument, that is furshur!
William, this Tuesday night playlist is so excellent, thank you!

Memories if Ibiza....
Outstanding main mix today! Greetings from Spain!

Well, I came in expecting a Pink Floyd cover, and . . . ?
Brå! :o)

Smooth, cool, meditative. I wish I were there too. 8 from the Scandophile Nottingham jury.

Stick around a while... you will hear stupid Oldfield track ...in its entirety! Rare occasion on RP but always appreciated. I guess you had to be there.

This really grows on subsequent listens.

I'm going +2 today, 6 to 8, I'm digging this more than before and that's why I say Long Live RP!!
Pretentious hipster background stuff, therefore perfect for a noisy coffee shop.

Youssou N'Dour following up his work with Peter Gabriel?
That old rascal is touring Europe  for next first half of this year.

Come back Bob!  Get on highway 61 and come to Iowa!

Still a 5 rating for now, which means I don't really want to hear it again and if it did come back on, I might PSD, might not.
Cool beat and sound.

Would slot in quite well at Cafe Del Mar... A good thing IMHO
All the songs on this album are incredible! Worth checking out!

Nice mellow tune.  Like a meditiation.  Good video too

No thank you.  OK her voice is not bad but I already hated it by then.  Some nice elements e.g. the violins.  Some awful repetitive droning crap and repetitive loops with no hook.  The african sounding voice belongs in a different song. Bleurgghh.

 
Sounds like the offspring of that stupid soundtrack to The Exorcist
Its my zen time...

I agree.
Sounding a bit processed and formulaic. Too bad cuz I love this type of sound. Enigma redux.
Dreamy, almost became hypnotized for a minute.
 
This was really enjoyable. She is awesome

My new favorite international world music chill out pop band (the rather specific genre that Wikipedia has describing this band).

 
Yikes.
