Many many years ago a friend who lived in Prague introduced me to Lisa Gerrard's music. He died tragically in a motorcycle accident, but every time I listen to her haunting melodies he is alive again for me to thank. Thanks Jeff.
She stands like a statue. all emotion is transported by the voice. No need for effects, performance, dancers, lights and all that. No need to even have your eyes open. Absolutely mesmerising. Such a rich, ancient, emotional voice.
Her voice is rich, powerful, dark and on top of all - her approach to singing is non-pretentious and very sophisticated. All so while she's singing, dressed in neutral colors, with nothing to distract the listener from her captivating voice. I wonder how tall she may be?
My wife took me to see Dead Can Dance in San Francisco right after we got married, I had no idea! Lisa Gerard’s voice permeated my soul. 16 years later that woman died in my arms, she so loved Dead Can Dance. We would play this music on our sailboat while we swung in the hammock drinking wine up on the main deck. I cry every time I hear her voice, that oh so beautiful ghost that still haunts my soul to this very day. I hear this music and can still smell Karen’s hair, sweet memories of her flood back and for just a brief moment a tender mercy of happiness flits across the arc of what’s left of my life. I’ll never love like that again, but this music helps me remember…
I absolutely loved your touching message. Should stones have a soul, it'd make'em cry. I bet It would... Thanks for putting into words such profound feelings. And for what it's worth, I too mourn your loss.
I saw her in LA many years ago and she is absolutely magic. She doesn't just sing - she channels something from another world - something pure and beautiful. I will never forget it.
Absolutely true. She brings in the original dimensions of the Spirit world here on Earth. No ordinary Human can sing like this and this is not Singing. It's initiation to the Lost Souls here. Takes one back Home. Real Home
there are a few performers in the world that can stand alone in the middle of a stage and absolutely overwhelm you with the beauty of their voice. I feel blessed with every opportunity to hear her sing.
It's like a cauldron of sadness, regret, pain, loss, remorse, hate, fear, anger and darkness was poured over your body and soul which consumed you with all the worst feelings and experiences you had in your life. Then. Light appears, then hands reach out grasping you with care, comfort , love and pull you from the dark and stop your torment and fill you with love. As you rise you realize your sins are forgiven and all who you love are watching you come home, forever.
Why is it that Lisa Gerard brings me to tears? 😢 Well my son, welcome to a higher class singer that brings back your deepest emotions and memories, welcome in the world of Lisa Gerard! ❤❤
Anastasia Maria boy shut ur dumb ass up and listen to the song.lI'm transgender trust me there's no evil alternative motive so get a life instead of worrying about other people
Lisa Gerrard is a contralto opera singer. It's the lowest vocal fach for a female, and also inarguably the rarest between the three female fach classifications. There just isn't enough of this out there. It's incredible.
Amazing how effortless she produces these sounds. There is hardly a change of expression on her face as she hits these amazing notes. Serene and other worldly.
True art, far away from modern trash. Divinely gifted with clear throat, pitch and resonance. A treat for the soul.I tune to it almost every day. So soothing, never get to switch off. Lisa is sculptured by God Himself.
Emotions Overload.....Tears,Breathing Problems,Goosebombs,Heart Ache,A Million Memories at the same time.....no other Human can cause all that at the SAME Time !!!!!
Kawtar Ennajmi i heard/read this is her own language she developed as a child to communicate with God. ive listened to dcd over my life but just recently learned that.
I've revisited this video so many times and every time she starts singing I'm freshly gobsmacked by how deep her voice gets. I think a lot of men can't even go that deep.
Many years ago, when I heard the first note, I became instantly addicted and until today, I'm still an addict of the most pure and inspirational voices ever!
The next world is death. The World we live in now is a state of being, death is another state, therefore it's the next World. I assume there is some irony in calling yourself 'Space Ghost'!
I’ve loved this voice since the dead can dance days nearly 30 years ago , and it just gets better and better . It’s a unique instrument , and nobody even comes close . A true one off . God bless ya Lisa x
Lisa Gerrard (& Pieter Bourke) Channelling something from the Beyond. I have a personal relationship to this song. I listened to this album while I was in labor with my first son, Noah. I listened to this track at least 15 times over the course of my twelve hour labor. It helped bring my boy into this world. Tragically he lost his life 3 years ago, at the age of 18, and now the song has extra meaning. He is in the Beyond. The place from which he came. This song helps transport me to where he is... Thank you
❤ I lost my God daughter in October of 23. Today is her birthday, and mother's day. I no longer have a relationship with her mother, but my heart is broken for them both today. I have been listening to Lisa all day. She brings us closer to what we've lost. I hope your heart finds peace, and that you smiled today. ❤
When I was a young boy I went on a holiday by a lake, one day we were invited to take to the water on kayaks, it was a thrilling experience I have thought about it often, riding paddle in hand atop the still surface of the lake. This strange music speaks to the longing of my heart to once more return to that lake and fulfill my one desire, to tread like Christ on the gentle waves inside the miracle that is, a kayak•
So beautiful and so sad at the same time... A voice like no other... Every time I listen to it I'm transported to another world and it's always magical like the first time I heard it.. I've always felt it is a lament... the crying of an existence that this world brought to the edge of sacrifice... but managed to survive by glimpses of bright light...
Everytime I listen to this particular song, her voice just pulls me in and i am suddenly filled with so much emotion. Truly a one of a kind. Could you imagine what her voice would sound like within a mountain range, the echo would just be phenomenal.
She takes me to middle earth, I mean physically takes me there. Growing up pre-smart phone Britain with our old stories and culture, instilled a sense of longing for a magical place, like the Norse idea of Midgard and the other planes. That’s been paved over with corporate buildings and answers to every question (sometimes with threats if they’re questioned). But her voice revives that belief, that it is out there somewhere, maybe I’m too close to the cities, or maybe it’s something we haven’t created yet, or forgotten how to create… Perhaps one day.
Love Lisa Gerrard. Always thought this happened to be one of the finest examples of being in the moment. Everything we experience in this performance is coming from her inner being without a filter. It is beautiful and almost frighteningly breathtaking because it is so honest. Lisa has such a gift for being able to connect with herself first...for the benefit of others. Real artist.
Beautiful, Haunting, Memorizing. This always captivates, engulfs me with sorrow, grief, but warmth and love. Thank you for sharing. Peace to all everywhere.
I don't want to insult Lisa by calling this a perfect "performance". This goes dimensions beyond a performance. Only a handful of singers in the world could do something like this. Lisa is IN the song.
If anyone else could sing like her it would probably still be Lisa Gerard. I can't think of anyone else to match her range her beauty. I love her I always will.
This woman and her voice make me feel so vulnerable. I feel like she sings like angels may sing in heaven. This is so powerful. I'm disconnected to my body when she sings, it's so weird.
Ever since my brother died in 2012 I have been searching for the feelings that bring me closer to God....I have only a few musicians that make me feel whole which include, Istavan Sky, Thomas Newman, Hanz Zimmer, Deva Premal......and now Lisa Gerrard, who almost tops the list...Heavenly gift from God.....ty for making me feel again.
This is not humanly possible.
This is out of any world.
I think God spoke back to Lisa.
Humanity needs a true HD version of this. Please.
@FrankTovey-j5mI’ll take it though. ❤❤❤
Lisa is the difference between a performance and a spiritual journey.
Many many years ago a friend who lived in Prague introduced me to Lisa Gerrard's music. He died tragically in a motorcycle accident, but every time I listen to her haunting melodies he is alive again for me to thank. Thanks Jeff.
That's beautiful
❤❤❤
He lives with you in this music
❤
Sad,but great story,you lost a friend but he introduced you to a vocal phenomenon.
She stands like a statue. all emotion is transported by the voice. No need for effects, performance, dancers, lights and all that. No need to even have your eyes open.
Absolutely mesmerising. Such a rich, ancient, emotional voice.
Exactly. Just her voice.
Her voice is rich, powerful, dark and on top of all - her approach to singing is non-pretentious and very sophisticated. All so while she's singing, dressed in neutral colors, with nothing to distract the listener from her captivating voice. I wonder how tall she may be?
@@heartofrilke4228 171cm
Schnee von Gestern - Really? It's a lot, but I kind of imagine her as even taller. At least 173 cm, or even more.
Ancient was a perfect word to use. The moment I read that word in your comment, I got chills.

Wow in more ways than you can think your soul just song out in away that will also touch many.
A wonderful,Magic voice
I absolutely loved your touching message.
Should stones have a soul, it'd make'em cry. I bet It would...
Thanks for putting into words such profound feelings.
And for what it's worth, I too mourn your loss.
So so deeply sorry
It's the memories that we take with us. You are blessed.
I saw her in LA many years ago and she is absolutely magic. She doesn't just sing - she channels something from another world - something pure and beautiful. I will never forget it.
Hollywood Bowl??
yeah she's pretty good
Yes she is really mystic
Feel like eco of life and death
Absolutely true. She brings in the original dimensions of the Spirit world here on Earth.
No ordinary Human can sing like this and this is not Singing. It's initiation to the Lost Souls here. Takes one back Home. Real Home
100%
This is an angel voice
This is not voice from the Earth...
Her voice is otherworldly. Her control, her nuance, the depth is spiritual. It truly transports me .
Prayer to GOD! As an angel what she is!
Her voice channels the Tao force from beyond all things, its the eternal nothingness from which is. Hauntingly beautiful because its pure.
wtf is this transgender party ? AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
@banjaxeguitars banjaxeguitars what ? xd
She is bliss incarnate i am simply blown away like a leaf her voice is so moving so intensely deep.
there are a few performers in the world that can stand alone in the middle of a stage and absolutely overwhelm you with the beauty of their voice. I feel blessed with every opportunity to hear her sing.
True
It's incredible, I feel really sorry for people that can't appreciate this, she's what we call perfection.
That's their great loss.
@@joetursi9573she's phenominal
Pobody's Nerfect,
The people who cannot appreciate this are the people who have never suffered. Period. We cannot always spend our time and give to those friends.
❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤
Unbelieveable. You can hear the whole world in her voice.
The Whole Eternity in fact!
Couldn't explain it better
She is amazing,the voice of an angel,and then beautifully other worldly 🤗
@@BaldricksTurnip1 She is one+
Beautifully said 💜
It's like a cauldron of sadness, regret, pain, loss, remorse, hate, fear, anger and darkness was poured over your body and soul which consumed you with all the worst feelings and experiences you had in your life.
Then.
Light appears, then hands reach out grasping you with care, comfort , love and pull you from the dark and stop your torment and fill you with love.
As you rise you realize your sins are forgiven and all who you love are watching you come home, forever.
❤

The best voice in the world 💙
Solo se ascolta questa musica ti dicono che sei triste!! 🤷😆😎
Agreed 👍
Θεϊκή!
The audience got more than anyone deserves. So it was a gift.
Sublime. If this voice doesn´t touch your soul, you´re already dead.
LOL...Damn right!
But, Dead Can Dance :)
TheBloodfarmer of course she touch my soul
im already dead inside , but still this song touched me
Calm down, moron.
Marvelous angel with broken wings, that can no longer fly away. Trapped on Earth she sings all her nostalgia of paradise.
Sophie di Geronimo wow..her voice and your comment gave me goosebumps
beautiful
she *is* paradise
Perfectly described
She is not with Broken Wings... Her Voice can take you beyond here and now. A messenger for the Lost Souls.
Why is it that Lisa Gerard brings me to tears? 😢 Well my son, welcome to a higher class singer that brings back your deepest emotions and memories, welcome in the world of Lisa Gerard! ❤❤
The best voice ever.
The complex tones Lisa strikes just scramble my brains. It's unreal.
Hahah the audience at the end are clapping she deserved a standing ovation and a fucking nobel prize. She is the definition of peace.
Amen..
she didn't write the music, she is just a performer. An excellent 1 to be sure, but only a singer.
Because they asked them not to for recording purposes.
@@ericb6784 wow....imagine how the rest of the spermatozoa were.....
Hell YES!!!
How can one have such powerful, rich and dark voice? Truly fascinating.
+Henry Wang Its called gift from the gods,from the universe :) cannot be explained though
Henry Wang shes amazing contralto singer! i love this woman so much!
Henry Wang deeply dark

Cannot find words to describe her singing.
Why am I lost in this with tears on my face???, It's the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.
This and "The Host of Seraphim"...
True art, far away from modern trash. Divinely gifted with clear throat, pitch and resonance. A treat for the soul.I tune to it almost every day. So soothing, never get to switch off. Lisa is sculptured by God Himself.
100% True ! Sculptured by God and all the UNIVERSE
❤
Her voice is amazing!!!
Emotions Overload.....Tears,Breathing Problems,Goosebombs,Heart Ache,A Million Memories at the same time.....no other Human can cause all that at the SAME Time !!!!!
She has just revealed a place in your heart you never knew existed.
So true
How can such a low and powerfull voice still sound so feminin, it's stunning. Makes the universe pause. Magnifico
I can't describe what I feel when I listen to this. It's like her soul sang for her... completely out of this world.
I feel sinking in a deep blue dark water...
Kawtar Ennajmi i heard/read this is her own language she developed as a child to communicate with God. ive listened to dcd over my life but just recently learned that.
108 %
this is the voice of angels
Nobody comes near,she is a force of nature, absolutely beautiful and original.
I've revisited this video so many times and every time she starts singing I'm freshly gobsmacked by how deep her voice gets. I think a lot of men can't even go that deep.
Doctor: You are left only 5 minutes to alive.
Me: Play this music.
Doctor: but, it's 8 minutes.
God: it's ok.
Amen
You seriously made me think about it right now...
God would say more please..
😂🤙🏼
This pretty much sums it up perfectly
Almost extraterrestrial.
Pure soul's voice.
it's called channeling the universe
Absolutely
Hello ❤😊
This is one of the greatest perfomances ever commited to TH-cam.
Yes.
No
I would love to be in that room! She is just wow. Ineffable.
Her voice is so beautiful and amazing❤❤
Many years ago, when I heard the first note, I became instantly addicted and until today, I'm still an addict of the most pure and inspirational voices ever!
One of the most stunning pieces Lisa has ever sung. When she begins to sing that last motif, my heart breaks.
When we die, this is what we want to hear on our journey to the next World.
The next world is death. The World we live in now is a state of being, death is another state, therefore it's the next World.
I assume there is some irony in calling yourself 'Space Ghost'!
YOU ARE IMMORTAL
Me too!
Michael Slater yes i'm agree with you !
not.
That moment in which eternity makes sense. Thanx, Lisa
a
I’ve loved this voice since the dead can dance days nearly 30 years ago , and it just gets better and better . It’s a unique instrument , and nobody even comes close . A true one off . God bless ya Lisa x
Her voice is celestial cosmic and divine. Depth soul yearning to who we truly are. Love 💖
Sometimes you come across with something that will make you addict in couple of seconds. Lisa Gerrard's voice is one of those things for me..

immediately brought to tears...
(i don't normally cry)
This is perfection! So powerful, I imagine it is healing every cell of our mind and body while listening.
Голос глубиною во вселённую. 🤔💪❤️
Nothing to Say, perfect❤
an angel on earth, even 20 years later
This is quite possibly the most beautiful thing I will ever hear in my entire lifetime
An eerie, haunting feeling comes over me when I listen to Lisa's music. Sort of like I've passed into another life with no idea of what to expect.
Nobody could top this voice ,she is utterly awesome and amazing.
She takes me to middle earth, I mean physically takes me there.
Growing up pre-smart phone Britain with our old stories and culture, instilled a sense of longing for a magical place, like the Norse idea of Midgard and the other planes. That’s been paved over with corporate buildings and answers to every question (sometimes with threats if they’re questioned).

Angels are in my room ...listening......tears flowing
ВЫСШИЙ КЛАСС!!! Не нахожу слов, чтобы выразить свой восторг! КОСМОС! ВСЕЛЕННАЯ!
This woman's voice tears me to pieces and puts me back to together. Exquisite.
She is amazing. A real treasure for mankind.
Her voice is so pure and holy it makes my impure soul scared yet amazed.
For some reason my soul hurts when I hear this. Reminds me of all my oain
I don't want to insult Lisa by calling this a perfect "performance". This goes dimensions beyond a performance. Only a handful of singers in the world could do something like this. Lisa is IN the song.
Brilliant observation. She completely inhabits the song.
She is being carried by the song which is on its turn carried by God ;-)
YES!!!!!
she's pretty good i think
LG è magnifica, unica, divina...la sua voce è incredibile, potente, soave, sublime.....
I bet that blew the socks off the live audience. Stunning.
+05Rudey No way anyone left the theatre the same person
+05Rudey yes hairs on end my friend
+05Rudey MIND BLOWING THE GIFTS PEOPLE HAVE !
I wish they had just kept absolute silence and reverence at the end....clapping as they did was just pitiful.
As a vocalist as well as a listener I am brought to tears! What a gift that can only come from within!
Wspaniały śpiew Lisy Gerard przenikajacy mnie niezwyklym glabokim wzruszeniem wewnetrznym💖😊😌🙂❤️
If anyone else could sing like her it would probably still be Lisa Gerard. I can't think of anyone else to match her range her beauty. I love her I always will.
This song has a gravitational pull - it draws you into its orbit, like a huge, slowly rotating planet.
When I die, I will listen to Lisa
This woman and her voice make me feel so vulnerable. I feel like she sings like angels may sing in heaven. This is so powerful. I'm disconnected to my body when she sings, it's so weird.
She has a voice from another time.....it's amazing.
I have been listening to this for so many years and it mesmerizes me every time ... I love this and you Lisa !!!
Lisa probably is the Holy Grail of spiritual practice and divine manifestation through music.
I was introduced to this beautiful woman's angelic voice when Man On Fire came out. She touches my soul...
Her voice leads to heaven
Lisa Gerrard is an angel from up there ❤
This very well could be the best 8 minutes of my existence....
I cry every time man
OMG her beautiful, unique, powerful haunting voice....i love this woman!
Lisa reduces me to tears on a regular basis. my God what an awesome talent she has.
Go and Listen To Sanvean and the Host of Seraphin The Best ! ❤ DCD ❤ Channeling The Universe
Lisa is a Masterclass in the art of being in the moment.
If your not feeling this tingle you to the very core.....YOU ARE DEAD!
This is beauty in every way.
I listen and wonder how Lisa creates such beautiful music, a true artist and we should be grateful for the past, present and future times together.
Ich liebe ihre Stimme. Sie hat mir das Leben gerettet, mich lachen und weinen lassen .... Sie ist mir ein Hort inmitten der Taubheit der anderen.
Everytime l hear this song l think about Jesus, the immense sacrifice, dying for us. Pain and pure love
Language as music, free of external meaning, simply a vessel of beauty.
Endless beauty.....
Lisa Gerrard is absolutely amazing,nobody is as amazing as her,she is a one off.
This live performance was uploaded on my first birthday. Absolutely astonishing.
I couldn't agree more... Lisa gerrard is mesmerizing. she is flawless in every way
This is the most beautiful voice in the universe for me. Eternity concentrated in a way we can understand.
Τhe Earths sound traveling in universe when the earth will does not exists.
are you an expert on what the Universe consists of?
This brought me to tears. Moving to put it lightly.
Ever since my brother died in 2012 I have been searching for the feelings that bring me closer to God....I have only a few musicians that make me feel whole which include, Istavan Sky, Thomas Newman, Hanz Zimmer, Deva Premal......and now Lisa Gerrard, who almost tops the list...Heavenly gift from God.....ty for making me feel again.
Wow this is how I imagine an angel would sound
Her voice is ethereal,this makes me cry in a positive way.
listen to this song every night before my deep sleeeeeep . must be
best song ever
Same here :)
