let me explain this music - its not about lisa gerrad - its about your life and how time comes and goes. Your family, your friends, and you. How you fit into a small period of time and the sadness that comes with our very limited existence.
This is beyond talent, beyond remarkable, beyond magnificent... It is pure essence! That woman doesn't sing... the song resonates through her as she becomes the song. If you've ever seen this lady sing, you'll know exactly what I mean!
Woah! That was sublime! Lisa Gerrard doesn't sing! She becomes the song as well as the song becomes her! Never have I heard such a thing! She is unique!
Well, it being on some TV and movie tracks might've made some people want to find this song. But you're right, it is not about the films, this is such a beautiful song on its own.
Lisa lives in the Dandenongs in Victoria Australia. I am so proud of her as an australian, but most of us here have never heard of her. I have loved her since Dead can Dance and This Mortal Coil. She's ours, she ours.......
O Senhor Jesus às vezes coloca na terra alguém com Lisa Gerrard, para que tenhamos uma amostra do que nos aguarda na vida espiritual. Maravilhosa Lisa Gerrard.
Music + voice from somewhere out there! Unreal track! Outstanding! I am in - definately! one of the most intense tracks i´ve ever heard! Genius! 37 deaf, dumb and blind humans with no heart, no soul and no feelings inside!
Lisa Gerrard is considered a contralto vocalist. Her vocals have been variously described as rich, jaw-dropping, unique, deep, dark and mournful. Her range spans from contralto to mezzo-soprano on such songs as "The Host of Seraphim", "Elegy" and "Space Weaver". On the other songs "Sanvean" and "Sacrifice," Gerrard performs in the deep contralto range. Gerrard sings many songs in a language of her own invention, which she has developed since age twelve. She thinks of it as "speaking to God.
When I listen to her singing, I can feel my gods, as though they are leaning close, embracing me. They are always there, but sometimes I must find a sacred space, away from the mundane, to hear them. She can set that space. This makes me want to go out and sing somewhere, up in the hills, where the coyotes call back.
For those asking about the language, Lisa's songs transcede language. It is her soul, her heart speaking...she once compared her singing to her daughter's singing. Her daughter was at the age just before she could speak, where she wasn't confined by language...
A tökéletes hang! És tökéletes lény! Én sem értem, mért nem híresebb, de örülök, hogy megtalált a zenéjével. Nélküle zárva lenne a szemem. Köszönöm! The perfect Voice! And perfect Entity! I don't understand too, why She's not more famous, but I am so glad, that She's found me with Her music. Without Her my eyes could be closed. Thank You!
since years i search for the gladiator-voice. now i found. it is....good it is so nice, you feel like angels sing...i love her voice. thanxxx for the video...
I listen to hardcore trance and alot of metal.... but i will allways... allways have time to listen to this beautiful voice :) Keep up the amazing work mwa.
If you saw "Gladiator",you have heard her, or even "Whale Rider","Man on Fire","Black Hawk Down",etc. She is great and works with composer Hans Zimmer a lot!
@deaddoc I want to correct this comment a little. SOME songs she sings are actually in languages. She has sung in Gaelic, Latin, Aramaic, and I think one or two others. But however she does it, she adds something that is deeply affecting all of us with ears to hear. And how could one not hear this?
Shes awsome inspires me to open up to anything can become a sound in the way you hear it like she has said :) relaxes my mind soul and spirit this one i listen to everyday without boring
