Thanks guys, I'm really glad you enjoyed it. The chant is a drinking chant from an indigenous group in a coastal area of Taiwan, and the drum beat is sampled from Zep's "When The Levee Breaks." Nick, sorry you're not feeling well, get better soon, bud.
Same here.This song, plus 'Sadness', takes me back to when I lost my precious husband in 1997. I had forgotten I had ordered their c.d. It came the same week he passed. It was the perfect music that helped me through a very difficult time. It is timeless, 'other worldly' and takes me away from this crazy world we live in.
This reminds me of my dad. He loved enigma and often use to play it for me back in the 90s. I would do anything and everything to be able to listen to this wonderful tune with him now. 🙂↕️
The chanting is by Difang Duana (March 20, 1921 - March 29, 2002) and Igay Duana (August 9, 1922 - May 16, 2002), Chinese names Kuo Ying-nan (郭英男) and Kuo Hsiu-chu (郭秀珠), were Amis husband and wife farmers from Taiwan who became known as a folk music duo who specialized in traditional Amis chants. The Amis people are an ancient (to present day) indigenous people in Taiwan.
It makes me emotional to see in people's comments that there are still people who listen to Enigma. My childhood comes to mind. I think Enigma is of higher quality than most of the music produced today. While listening to Enigma, my soul feels like it's in a different universe. It is impossible to explain these feelings. But I always wonder if there is anyone out there who feels the same. :)
I think Enigma is the project name given by its creator Michael Cretu. In the Enigma project Cretu now has at least 8 albums. I first started listen to Enigma back in middle school more than 37 years ago on Cassette tape.
Another vote for The Eyes of Truth. (It is the song before Return to Innocence on the same album.) The original Matrix movie used that song during the trailer. The music worked well with the dark visuals and action clips. I was at a pub and slipped the song into the jukebox play list. I was surprised at the emotional response for the 20 year old (at the time) non-traditional music.
Enigma is a OG of this genre. They're the one who started this trend back in 80s with song "Sadness " . Thanks to Enigma we have: Enya, Adeamus, Moby , etc. Enigma is in their own league period.
I just love that you never know what you are going to be treated to on this amazing channel. This was so new, relaxing and enjoyable for me. Thanks Mickey D. 😀
Enigma is fantastic. Their music will either relax or arouse you. Tip: if you want to get in the mood with someone you love or fancy, put on their debut album MCMXC a.D. You're welcome ;-)
6:05 Wow, what a blast from the past for me...I fell in love with these songs on the Pure Moods compilation CD with many of the artists you mention (I also remember there being commercials for it on almost every break, especially late at night in the 90's)...It has this song and Sadness by Enigma, also Orinoco Flow by Enya, and Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells...It's some serious mood music...hence the name...lol...
More Enigma please! If I recall, a few seconds later when starting the next song "I Love You... I'll Kill You", they sampled the drum pattern from the beginning of Genesis "Fading Lights". In a different song called "Eyes of Truth", they also sampled the drum pattern from Peter Gabriel's "Kiss That Frog".
I have this album (Cross Of Change). Most of the songs blend into the next. I Love You, I'll Kill You is another of my favorites on this one. Sadeness is the first song I heard from Enigma. It was unique in that it used Gregorian chants with a dance beat. Last week Deep Forest popped back into my head. I think you'd like some of their stuff, too.
I Love You...I'll Kill You is one of my personal favorites from the album! The guitar solo play though is just...*chefs kiss* 😍 I have all of the 8 albums from Enigma and wished that Michael Cretu will work on his 9th album whenever that is.

I was introduced to Enigma when they first came out by my girlfriend at the time and have listened to them ever since. Many days I will listen to Enigma most of the day while I am working at my desk as it helps to keep me relaxed. Also to note, yes, this was in a movie but one that I doubt most people have seen, the movie is Exit to Eden.
This is so surprising, I have been listening to Enigma for over 30 years and love all 8 albums! And yes, that part Nick sang, Sade, dis-mois is from the song Sadeness on their first album MCMXC a.D and Return to Innocence is from their second album The Cross of Changes.
I love you guys. I appreciate the inclusion of this category of music. I remember back when Enigma's first album came out and helped to make this type of World oriented music popular.... Enya, Era, Deep Forest, Andreas Vollenweider, Peter Gabriel, etc. I've been in love ever since. I was wondering if you have ever heard of Loreena McKennitt? Beautiful Canadian artist who's music fits into this category. She is able to play a multitude of instruments and speaks several languages. She spends a long period living in specific areas of the world learning the history of their customs and related music and then makes an album within that theme. Masterpieces, really. Songs like "Tango To Evora", "Bonny Portmore" (used in the Highlander series), The Mummers Dance (Used in the Legacy TV Series). My favorites are "The Gates of Istanbul", "Caravanserai", "Beneath a Phrygian Sky", "The Bonny Swans", "Marrakesh Night Market", "All Souls Night", and "The Lady of Shalott". Sorry if you've already addressed her on your channel. If she is unknown to you, you're welcome!
Wonderful reaction video! Enigma is a german project from Michael Cretu and his ex-wife Sandra. 'Return to Enigma" was a very famous hit in 1993. Please continue with new Enya stuff :) F.e.: 'So I could find my way", "Carribean Blue", "Afer Ventus", "Echoes in Rain", Evening falls".
I am so glad you got to experience this great tune. It is not a chant its actually a style of singing where they use their voice as an instrument. I think it originated in Taiwan.
You had to hear this a few times before. It was one of those songs that you could not escape around 1993-94. I was never a fan of Enigma and I´ve heard this so many times. In a bus, out of people´s windows, on the radio, on TV, in the shops....everywhere.
Hello Nick and Lex! I am so glad you reacted to this band! Another song from this very same album is "Age of loneliness (Carly's song)" which actually appears in a Sharon Stone movie "Sliver". Please, keep on reacting to this beautiful music, Enigma is such a great band. Lots of love from Argentina!❤
Enigma, a musical project in which many musicians took part. Created by Michael Cretu. For the second album "The Cross of Changes" Michael Cretu traveled the world to gain new musical impressions, which he expressed very well in this album. For me personally the most beautiful album. And yes, Sadeness is also from Enigma.
Enigma is just one of the top New Age groups...awesome music! You guys are in for a treat!Their music comes straight from the heart and the proof of their relevance is their continuing popularity...Their music is like Lays potato chips "Bet you can't eat just one!"...Ty for this...

You know where I first heard this? I was with my with my wife, shopping in "Express". It was a hip woman's clothing store at the mall. Some guys hated shopping. Not me. Sitting on a sofa, watching my beautiful wife trying on clothes, in a clean kool store, filled with pretty women wasn't so bad. Actually....everything about the store was a visual treat. This song was playing on some loop, with me relaxing...taking it all in. It was a great way to spend a wife day. Next mall stop, Mrs Fields cookies. Mrs Brown You've Got A lovely Daughter, yesterday and this song now, are significant moments in my life. Ya can't make this stuff up. For me, this is hanging with the wife - while shopping song.
❤ The movie SLIVER was on tv this week, and Enigma's Carly's Song was on as i passed by. It made me want to hear THIS song. Had to call up Redbone chants,13th hour and Niji trance, and Robbie Robertson's Mahk Jchi. Followed by some The Hu with Wolf totem and Eivor's outdoor performance of Trodlabundin. Then this morning, just scrolling through there, this was. Thanks.
Awesome song, awesome album and group / project. Both albums MCMXC a.D. and Le Moi Est Mort, Vive Le Roi are amazing listening experiences from start to finish. "Back to the Rivers of Belief" is one of my favorites along with "Principles of Lust". The song you're thinking about with the "Sade, dis-moi" lyric is from the song "Sadeness" at around the 2:00 mark which is part of "Principles of Lust" at the beginning.
Take care of your fingers when you're chopping the veggies to this Alexia. I haven't heard Enigma for a long time, but it instantly reminded me of a certain period in my life while living in Johannesburg. This album was huge in South Africa, along with Gregorian Chant music that was popular at around the same time. Another left turn on the most eclectic reaction channel on TH-cam xx
I haven't ever listened to Enigma, but saw them a lot in stores. I know Adiemus. I don't listen to New Age a lot, but it is very relaxing. 80s Eloy sounded also like this, but with some distorted guitars.
If you have ever seen the movie "Man of the house" with Chevy chase, Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Farrah Fawcett. Its featured in that movie. I loved that movie as a kid, so this song stuck with me since.
"Return to Innocence" by Enigma sampled Difang Duana and Igay Duana's "Chant D'Hommage Aux Ancêtres.Please please if you have the time have a look at Eivør - Falling Free (Live at the Old Theater in Torshavn) She is full of talent.She sang this live here in England it was excellent.
The Cross Of Changes is a very interesting album. To me it is about relationships and the conquest of South America (as in the title track). It is brilliant, and is how I got my "Notanotherenigma" name
Watching the music video makes it a complete audio visual experience. Since you liked Enigma, there is a very high possibility that you'll enjoy Deep Forest as well.
Perhaps you would enjoy some more Vangelis, Nick? Not the poppy stuff he did with Jon Anderson, but from his solo albums, or even some of his film score albums, such as _Antarctica_ or _1492: The Conquest of Paradise._ From his non film scores, I would recommend "Himalaya" and "Summit" (the two tracks are joined) from his _China_ album or "Heaven and Hell, Part 1" from _Heaven and Hell._ "Alpha" from _Albedo 0.39_ and the title track from _Spiral_ or "To the Unknown Man" from the same album. All good stuff.
This was my grandas favourite song he died of Alzheimer's disease I miss I'm greatly theres not a day that goes by where I dont think of him 😢 I just wish we could have one more hug I miss you Jim
What you are taking as a native American tribal chant is actually an Austronesian Amis (AKA Pangca) chant from Taiwan. I took it for native American the first time I heard it too. This was one of the things that got me interested in all the commonality/similarities in music (instuments, rhythms, sounds of ethnic songs) you can find in cultures that are separated by thousands of miles and have had no interaction with each other. I found this to be strongly true of different Asian cultures and North American native tribes. And yes, this (like all eight of Enigma's albums) is a concept album.
I thought it was a native american chant as well, but it is actually an indigenous Taiwanese Drinking Song! You can find the original that was sampled on youtube.
More than the song of the American Indians, I would say that it is a Lappon Sami or joik song. This song is very similar to the traditional songs of Lapland, in northern Europe. th-cam.com/video/woEcdqqbEVg/w-d-xo.html
Oddly enough. This is a beer drinking song in tai or somewhere in the east. You can find an 70 year old couple singing this chant on you tube🤘❤️🇺🇸 enigma was sued for sampling the chant. And that old couple collects 100% of royalties. Names are difang and igay
I live in Brazil and I love your channel, please make an Enigma playlist mainly about music I Love You... I'll Kill You you'll love the guitar solo on it
Thanks guys, I'm really glad you enjoyed it. The chant is a drinking chant from an indigenous group in a coastal area of Taiwan, and the drum beat is sampled from Zep's "When The Levee Breaks." Nick, sorry you're not feeling well, get better soon, bud.
That’s cool about the sampling.
*_"the drum beat is sampled from Zep's "When The Levee Breaks.""_*
Oh yes! I hear it now. It's speeded up, though.
{:o:O:}
Thanks Mickey D. Wonderful sounds 😊👍
10,000 years ago, two groups of indigenous people parted ways from Siberia - one heading northwest, and the other southeast.
Wow, thank you so much.
Enigma. Instantly it's 30 years ago again. That MCMXC a.d. record was EVERYWHERE. Still sounds great.
I’m a 45 years old man and this track makes me cry 😭!! Every time I hear it !!!
Same here.This song, plus 'Sadness', takes me back to when I lost my precious husband in 1997. I had forgotten I had ordered their c.d. It came the same week he passed. It was the perfect music that helped me through a very difficult time. It is timeless, 'other worldly' and takes me away from this crazy world we live in.
The man behind Enigma (Michael Cretu) worked with Mike Oldfield.
This reminds me of my dad. He loved enigma and often use to play it for me back in the 90s. I would do anything and everything to be able to listen to this wonderful tune with him now. 🙂↕️

But I always wonder if there is anyone out there who feels the same. :)
I am 47...so glad to enjoy the 90's as my teens and 20s
Keep on listening to Enigma, guys!
This band is a caress to the soul!
I think Enigma is the project name given by its creator Michael Cretu. In the Enigma project Cretu now has at least 8 albums. I first started listen to Enigma back in middle school more than 37 years ago on Cassette tape.
That chant brought me right back in time. I had nearly forgotten about this. Thanks, Mickey. Great reaction, guys. ❤️🔥
I had forgotten it, too! Then got to the chant and it came rushing back!
Thanks Michele!
Love this song so so much! One of my favourite songs ever, makes me emotional and melancholic every time.
Absolutely loved this. Really cool request here! Nice change of pace! Enjoyed your reaction as always! Sending love!
You should try more Enigma; Sadeness, Mea Culpa, The Eyes of Truth, Age of Loneliness... great stuff.
Great reaction! :D
Another vote for The Eyes of Truth.
(It is the song before Return to Innocence on the same album.)
The original Matrix movie used that song during the trailer. The music worked well with the dark visuals and action clips.
I was at a pub and slipped the song into the jukebox play list. I was surprised at the emotional response for the 20 year old (at the time) non-traditional music.
I remember loving this song in ‘93.
Enigma is a OG of this genre. They're the one who started this trend back in 80s with song "Sadness " . Thanks to Enigma we have: Enya, Adeamus, Moby , etc. Enigma is in their own league period.
Moby's "Porcelaine"
Er… I LOVE enigma and this song in particular but you might like to check your dates, Enya for sure was creating music long before Enigma.
Glad you guys like engima 😊❤
I just love that you never know what you are going to be treated to on this amazing channel. This was so new, relaxing and enjoyable for me. Thanks Mickey D. 😀
Glad you liked it!
Enigma is fantastic. Their music will either relax or arouse you. Tip: if you want to get in the mood with someone you love or fancy, put on their debut album MCMXC a.D. You're welcome ;-)
i heard this on the movie 1995 man the house at the end of the movie. i was only 4 when it came out. it’s a beautiful song.
6:05 Wow, what a blast from the past for me...I fell in love with these songs on the Pure Moods compilation CD with many of the artists you mention (I also remember there being commercials for it on almost every break, especially late at night in the 90's)...It has this song and Sadness by Enigma, also Orinoco Flow by Enya, and Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells...It's some serious mood music...hence the name...lol...
Love them along time.1st time was 16 yrs old now 48 and still same feeling as before but with experience 😊
I LOVE YOU TWO 0:10-that made me smile
7:20-the way Lex looks at you, Nick!!
More Enigma please! If I recall, a few seconds later when starting the next song "I Love You... I'll Kill You", they sampled the drum pattern from the beginning of Genesis "Fading Lights". In a different song called "Eyes of Truth", they also sampled the drum pattern from Peter Gabriel's "Kiss That Frog".
I love you I'll kill you is amazing, always blow my mind that guitar solo! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

If i was having the best dream in my life at the sound of this it would be 100 times more pleasant.
You can fell the joy,fantastic sound.😊😊😊

Wonderful reaction video!
Enigma is a german project from Michael Cretu and his ex-wife Sandra.
'Return to Enigma" was a very famous hit in 1993.
Please continue with new Enya stuff :)
F.e.: 'So I could find my way", "Carribean Blue",
"Afer Ventus", "Echoes in Rain", Evening falls".
Love Enigma, 20 years now
I am so glad you got to experience this great tune. It is not a chant its actually a style of singing where they use their voice as an instrument. I think it originated in Taiwan.

Wow, feels like so long ago but I remember this album playing constantly in my ears when it came out.
You would like Loreena McKennitt's "Dante's prayer" a lot...
Hello Nick and Lex!
I am so glad you reacted to this band! Another song from this very same album is "Age of loneliness (Carly's song)" which actually appears in a Sharon Stone movie "Sliver".
Please, keep on reacting to this beautiful music, Enigma is such a great band.

You know where I first heard this? I was with my with my wife, shopping in "Express". It was a hip woman's clothing store at the mall. Some guys hated shopping. Not me. Sitting on a sofa, watching my beautiful wife trying on clothes, in a clean kool store, filled with pretty women wasn't so bad. Actually....everything about the store was a visual treat. This song was playing on some loop, with me relaxing...taking it all in. It was a great way to spend a wife day. Next mall stop, Mrs Fields cookies.
Mrs Brown You've Got A lovely Daughter, yesterday and this song now, are significant moments in my life. Ya can't make this stuff up. For me, this is hanging with the wife - while shopping song.
This is my kind of music. 😍
Goosebumps right?
Greetings from Puerto Rico!
❤ The movie SLIVER was on tv this week, and Enigma's Carly's Song was on as i passed by. It made me want to hear THIS song. Had to call up Redbone chants,13th hour and Niji trance, and Robbie Robertson's Mahk Jchi. Followed by some The Hu with Wolf totem and Eivor's outdoor performance of Trodlabundin. Then this morning, just scrolling through there, this was. Thanks.
i can remember when this came onto the uk charts back in the day when i was in infants school
It's just a masterpiece ❤❤❤
That chant is not Native Indians but Taiwanese.
Awesome song, awesome album and group / project. Both albums MCMXC a.D. and Le Moi Est Mort, Vive Le Roi are amazing listening experiences from start to finish. "Back to the Rivers of Belief" is one of my favorites along with "Principles of Lust".
The song you're thinking about with the "Sade, dis-moi" lyric is from the song "Sadeness" at around the 2:00 mark which is part of "Principles of Lust" at the beginning.
Take care of your fingers when you're chopping the veggies to this Alexia. I haven't heard Enigma for a long time, but it instantly reminded me of a certain period in my life while living in Johannesburg. This album was huge in South Africa, along with Gregorian Chant music that was popular at around the same time. Another left turn on the most eclectic reaction channel on TH-cam xx
I haven't ever listened to Enigma, but saw them a lot in stores. I know Adiemus. I don't listen to New Age a lot, but it is very relaxing. 80s Eloy sounded also like this, but with some distorted guitars.
Fantastic song loveit❤❤❤❤
If you have ever seen the movie "Man of the house" with Chevy chase, Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Farrah Fawcett. Its featured in that movie. I loved that movie as a kid, so this song stuck with me since.
Great Music
Listen to the whole album! Its an experience
Love this.
Drums were sampled from the song "When the Levee Breaks" by Led Zeppelin
Love them since 1990
Best reaction to this song.
Excellent request, Mickey D, and great reaction! For Brian Eno, “An Ending (Ascent)” is a treasure and a good place to start. ❤
Thanks Mark!
This is my practice in the shower song before going out karaoke. Lorena McKenna-mummers dance is awesome just like this. Great music
wunderschön
It was in the 90s Outer Limits episode The Conversion, season 1. To my knowledge that is the only TV or film it has been used in.
It was also used in the 90's film Man of the House starring Farrah Fawcett, Chevy Chase and Johnathan Taylor Thomas
You gotta check out, "Sadeness" by Enigma! My favorite song by them!
💜💫✌🏼🎵
Feel better, Nick!!! ✨️✨️✨️
"Return to Innocence" by Enigma sampled Difang Duana and Igay Duana's "Chant D'Hommage Aux Ancêtres.Please please if you have the time have a look at Eivør - Falling Free (Live at the Old Theater in Torshavn) She is full of talent.She sang this live here in England it was excellent.
The Cross Of Changes is a very interesting album. To me it is about relationships and the conquest of South America (as in the title track). It is brilliant, and is how I got my "Notanotherenigma" name
Thanks guys!!! Great reactions!!! Next reaction should be "The Host of Seraphim," by The Dead Can Dance from "The Serpent's Egg" album. Ot is Fore!!!!
I absolutely adore this song & was flabbergasted to realise it wasn’t Native American but a Taiwanese chant…
Watching the music video makes it a complete audio visual experience.
Since you liked Enigma, there is a very high possibility that you'll enjoy Deep Forest as well.
Mea Culpa and Eyes of truth.
C'mon guys you will love it.
Another great song in the style of Enigma is the album version of Sweet Lullaby from Deep Forest. The whole self titled Deep Forest album is fantastic
Need to watch the video music. The cinematography is awesome
Amen by Enigma is great too.
Mummers Dance by Lorena McKenna with overflow your emotions. I play it back to back with this song.
Perhaps you would enjoy some more Vangelis, Nick? Not the poppy stuff he did with Jon Anderson, but from his solo albums, or even some of his film score albums, such as _Antarctica_ or _1492: The Conquest of Paradise._ From his non film scores, I would recommend "Himalaya" and "Summit" (the two tracks are joined) from his _China_ album or "Heaven and Hell, Part 1" from _Heaven and Hell._ "Alpha" from _Albedo 0.39_ and the title track from _Spiral_ or "To the Unknown Man" from the same album. All good stuff.

What you are taking as a native American tribal chant is actually an Austronesian Amis (AKA Pangca) chant from Taiwan. I took it for native American the first time I heard it too. This was one of the things that got me interested in all the commonality/similarities in music (instuments, rhythms, sounds of ethnic songs) you can find in cultures that are separated by thousands of miles and have had no interaction with each other. I found this to be strongly true of different Asian cultures and North American native tribes.
And yes, this (like all eight of Enigma's albums) is a concept album.
I thought it was a native american chant as well, but it is actually an indigenous Taiwanese Drinking Song! You can find the original that was sampled on youtube.
Music video add so much more emotions to it
Sadness by enigma is the song you were trying to think of.
You guys ever hear wookiefoot? Don't hold your breath is an amazing track

Ah, the 90s, the best years.
Deep forest sweet lullaby is so cool to
More than the song of the American Indians, I would say that it is a Lappon Sami or joik song. This song is very similar to the traditional songs of Lapland, in northern Europe. th-cam.com/video/woEcdqqbEVg/w-d-xo.html
Oddly enough. This is a beer drinking song in tai or somewhere in the east. You can find an 70 year old couple singing this chant on you tube🤘❤️🇺🇸 enigma was sued for sampling the chant. And that old couple collects 100% of royalties. Names are difang and igay
