apparently the song was retitled to sadness for release in the usa. maybe because 'sadeness' was confusing or they didn't want to associate the song with overtly kinky sexuality.
I love Enigma. The CD that this song is on is fantastic. I had back in the 90's and I wore it out playing it so much. I think their music is very beautiful and sexy.
I turned my older sister on to ENIGMA in 2001 she was dying from a brain tumor @55yrs old I gave her my walkman with Return To Innocence ..now I am Native American Irish mix American she love all of the songs I hope it brought her some peace ,Thanks for what you do .
Yes, it is French. The woman is saying, Sade, dit moi (Sade, tell me), Sade, donne moi (Sade, give me). Sade refers to the 18th century French erotica writer Le Marquis de Sade who not only wrote about what was considered perverse sexual practices in his time, but also engaged in those practices which focused on inflicting pain during sexual relations. He is considered the father of sadism. De Sade's writings and conduct were shocking to French society because he was born and raised an aristocrat at the famous royal house of Condé in Paris. He was also descended from a highly respected Italian poet, and he studied writing at the prestigious Lycée Louis-le-Grand in Paris. He ditched all familial and societal expectations to write and live the way he wanted for which he was ostracized and twice imprisoned. He died in 1814 of fever from an untreated bacterial infection. "Enigma - Sadeness" challenges society's condemnation of de Sade by asking him to tell (dit moi) and give (donne moi) evidence of whether he is evil or divine. It's a rhetorical question because the song's composer considers him divine.
Even his solo career from late 70's and entire 80's is epic as heck! Gambit, Samurai, Carte Blanche, Crazy Life and Mikado are my five favorite songs of his!
He surely transfered some of that solo career vibes into his Enigma project! Especially songs like Mikado, which is an instrumental masterpiece! Give it a listen if you haven't yet!
In the 90s, this song was considered one of the ultimate sex songs. And they labeled the name of this song incorrectly. On Enigma's album MCMXC a.D., the song is titled "SADEness." It's an exploration of the sexual desires of the Marquis de Sade.
This whole album is the bomb.... You hit it on the head. Sadeness, then Mea Culpa, then Principles of Lust. All together is one long suite of mood music for the nasty!
The Gregorian Chants from groups like "Enigma and Era" are sounds of beauty. Enigma also has a beautiful version from the award-winning movie "Gladiator.'" The song is titled "Now We Are Free." Era has many hit songs like: "Ameno", "Infanati", "Istefri," and "Divano" to name a few. They are sung in old world Latin. The videos that come with them are beautiful and artsy. They are worth going down the Rabbit Hole. If you like this kind of music. I know you will also like Sara Brightman's "Captain Nemo" This song has a beautiful Gregorian Chant to go with Sara's beautiful voice. Enigma also did a song with Sarah Brightman titled "Eden." This is just a gorgeous song with the beautiful and captivating voice of Sarah Brightman. A must listen.
@@Forever...Wanderer "Enigma also has a beautiful version" can you read? Can't find anything about a cover by Enigma except some weird dubsteb stuff called Enigma so I don't know what this guy is talking about.
@@XPGrindDeathking What I read is a sentence that made no sense whatsoever on top of being wrong. It should've been "version of a song" and regardless, Enigma has absolutely nothing to do with any of the music from Gladiator, which was all Hans Zimmer and if you know about Gladiator's music, you wouldn't find anything that sounds like it could be covered by Enigma. I certainly didn't need to check about "Now We Are Free" specifically either to know because I listen to both Lisa Gerrard's and Enigma's music and while both touch upon the surreal, the ways they do it are vastly different.
This is part 1. Part 2 is instrumental and VERY haunting. The song is questioning pleasure and sexual desire, and is referring to the Marquis De Sade- the "S" in S&M.
4:26 there is a sexual undertone to this song. If you look up and listen to the CD single remix, Meditation Mix, and the Violent US Mix, you'll know why, especially the latter version which implies S&M Their other two release Mea Culpan, and Principle Lust are very much the same trance style, especially the remixes that was released in the time in the early 90s The spoken part is in French, but this song is from Germany
Mon album préféré de tous les temps, tout artiste confondu... 8 albums, 8 voyages auditifs ✨ J’aime beaucoup votre réaction, merci pour cette vidéo. 😘😘
I was blasting this one day when I had a workman in the house installing an alarm system. He called me after he left to ask the name of the CD I was playing, he was at the store to buy it. Enigma is great music if you are lucky enough to be on the ocean.
Enigma created what are called "concept albums" that are meant to be taken as a whole rather than individual tracks. You listen to it from from beginning to end with songs blending one into another. They created eight of these albums and this track came from the first one- MCMXC a.D. (The roman numerals for the year the album came out... 1990). Each album features different vocalists and elements of classical, ancient, or world music blended with hip-hop & dance beats, pop, and a new age feel. This first album used the 9th and 10th century Gregorian chants.
My beautiful Red Headed Girlfriend, a bottle of Chivas Royal Salute, certain herbs and Her Hot Tub had this 'CD' on repeat back in the early 90's. And respectfully it's "Sadeness" not 'Sadness'.
This song brings me back to being a little kid in the early 2000s. I first heard this on a movie called Single White Female and was instantly entranced. Now that I think about it, I’m pretty sure that whole soundtrack was a mood 😂
I've been an Enigma fan forever. Try this parts 1/2/3, you will like this even more, trust me, you'll thank me later, lol. Buckle up, in a good way. Enjoy, when you have the time to watch and really take it all in. th-cam.com/video/MIRfXznFzRY/w-d-xo.html
Hello , you are very enthusiastic about Enigma ? Behind it is Michael Cretu, with titles like "Mea Culpa" or "Return to Innocene". At that time he married Sandra Lauer, so then Sandra Cretu who sang in the background for Enigma. But she was very successful herself, like the titles "Maria Magdalena", "In the Heat of the Night" or "Hiroshima". I'm still a big "Sandra" and also "Enigma" fan. Maybe I could give you new video inspirations. I would be very happy about your reactions to these titles or artists. Greetings from Germany !
That male chorus we hear in this song is 'Gregorian: Masters of Chant'..they have a huge catalog, and they are....unique. Worth looking up. The chorus is singing in Latin, the others are singing in French. . And that door...the Gates of Hell....
It is about god and devil , if you find the lyrics you will see it has some deep meanings and messages ....... One thing i am goanna say .......WELCOME IN THE WORLD OF ENIGMA ..........THE NEW AGE MUSIC........THE MOST MAGIC WORLD OF SOUND AND EMOTIONS ...............WELCOME ....IN THE WORLD OF SOULS .. ENIGMA , ERA & GREGORIAN Is one of the reasons which makes europe so damn amazing and magic place and I'm glad who i borned here .....who i grew up with their masterpieces ..........their songs is for listening when you are alone in the sunset ........i still playing their 1st album ...THEIR BEST ALBUM ....IN VINYL
@Shawn and Mel you should both listen to the full version and do a re-reaction, it's called Sadeness Part 1 / Principles of lust / Sadness Part 2 to finish off, 3 magical soundscapes that take you to another level with that loved one, or u cud be on Ur own (if you know what I'm saying?!) 😜😘 I agree it's definitely 'get a room!' type music and really gets people into a spiritual, sensual mood pls do a reaction to this full version and I'll be your number one YT fan forever?! Peace out ✌️ Xxx
This song was so amazing; it's a shame that Part 2 doesn't live up to it. Part 1 was so unique and different and innovative, and Part 2 was just a cover of Tocatta and Fugue in D Minor. It didn't even have the Enigma feel to it IMO.
This song was banned in several countries because it is sensual, yet it uses Gregorian chant, ancient Catholic church song. They start saying, "procedamus in pace, in nomine Cristi, amen," in Latin. Means, "we proceed in peace in the name of Christ." Yet, the song is supposed to be sensual, which is weird.
I've been an Enigma fan since they came out. BUT LOOK, if you want the full experience of Sadness, try this link w/Parts1-2-3 (I'm not requesting a reaction, just for your enjoyment, and if you enjoyed part 1 as much as I saw, def treat yourself to 1/2/3, this link has all 3). You will be taken in 3x more...and yeah, it's epic "sexy time" music, and if you thought part 1 was (that was the radio play version/appropriate length for radio), parts 1-2-3 are DELICIOUS in conjunction w/each other. And your pause when she did the breathing, there's a segment in 1-2-3 of similar that's QUITE INTENSE, TRUST ME! And it's a must to experience 1/2/3 as one to get the full Enigma experience of what 1 is, and the transitions of 1 to 2 to 3, they blend, yet become different, yet the same vibe, and you will enjoy each the same as the other. THIS part 1/2/3 as one cont song has STUNNING art as the video...that goes w/what you interpret in the song...it's EPIC it's chanting, that let's you interpret yourself in the song of what you feel, but yeah, everyone feel the same in general, "sexy time". Give yourself an experience you will be thankful you did...this link. th-cam.com/video/MIRfXznFzRY/w-d-xo.html (btw, it WOULD be epic to see your reaction to 1/2/3, and expose your viewers to the world of Enigma, 1/2/3 as a whole...but if not, at least give yourself the gift of a listen to 1/2/3 as one, you'll def be thankful you did) Best regards, K~
You should pick a song from each Enigma album to listen to and react to the differences between 1990 and 2016 with Enigma. No two albums sound the same.
Shawn? Kama Sutra? Hop to it man! Mel is needing it. LOL Yes, Enigma is very sultry and sexy. I had this as my ringtone for over 2 years because that is how I roll. The real issue I have, I thought it was Sadness for years but they spell is Sadeness. I looked it up and got this. "It is a sensual track based around "questioning" the sexual desires of Marquis de Sade;" This where we get the word Sadism, the act of getting pleasure from inflicting punishmnet. But he was much more than that. Despite all the opinions about de Sade and his association with perversion, his works actually support sexual freedom, in the sense of enjoying one’s sexuality beyond the modesty and limitations imposed by one’s culture and upbringing.
Its Sadeness not Sadness.Enigma’s “Sadeness”-a hauntingly beautiful piece that weaves together mystery, sensuality, and a touch of the mystical. Let’s dive into it, shall we? 🎵 Origins and Inspiration: The title itself is a clever blend of two words: “Sade” and “sadness.” Let’s unpack that: “Sade” refers to the infamous Marquis de Sade, a French novelist and libertine from the 18th century. His name is synonymous with sexual exploration, but not the kind you’d find in a rom-com. No, no. De Sade believed that pleasure was intricately tied to pain. Yep, he was the one who gave us the term “sadism.” 🤔 Now, imagine a Gregorian chant-a type of solemn, meditative singing often heard in church music-floating through the air. It’s like ancient echoes reverberating across centuries. Enigma decided to blend this sacred sound with their electronic beats, creating something utterly unique. The Music: “Sadeness (Part I)” is a song by the German musical project Enigma. It was released in October 1990 as the lead single from their debut album, “MCMXC a.D.” (which is Roman numerals for 1990, by the way). 🎶 The music itself is an intoxicating mix of Gregorian chants, sensual beats, and mysterious whispers. It’s like stepping into a dimly lit cathedral where secrets linger in the shadows. International Hit: This track didn’t just tiptoe into the music scene; it sashayed right to the top. It reached number one in 14 countries. People couldn’t get enough of its enigmatic allure. The video, too, is a visual feast-shrouded figures, candlelit corridors, and a sense of forbidden knowledge. It’s like Dan Brown’s “The Da Vinci Code” set to music. 🔍 Why You Should Listen: Close your eyes and let the haunting melody wrap around you. It’s a journey-a pilgrimage through desire, mystery, and a touch of melancholy. And hey, if you’re feeling adventurous, maybe listen to it while reading some Marquis de Sade. Just, uh, keep it PG-13. 😉 If you want to experience it firsthand, here’s the official video. Enjoy the enigma, my friend! 🌟123 Now, speaking of mysteries, have you ever wondered what aurora lights look like in a hidden forest? Or perhaps the gentle flow of a river through ancient trees? Let’s explore those visual wonders next! 🌲🌌🌊
It's Sadeness not Sadness. Sade being the Marquis de Sade, the writer who inspired the word Sadism and who was imprisoned for his "deviant" writings.
So that's what the title means.
apparently the song was retitled to sadness for release in the usa. maybe because 'sadeness' was confusing or they didn't want to associate the song with overtly kinky sexuality.
Well said.
If the synths and beautiful effects he used were awesome enough,he had to play that flute.
Legend Michael Cretu,phenomonal.
@@nunosantos00no the flute was a synth one. I think he used the brand new at the time DX9.
I love Enigma. The CD that this song is on is fantastic. I had back in the 90's and I wore it out playing it so much. I think their music is very beautiful and sexy.
This band took the listener to another place in their deeper emotions.
I turned my older sister on to ENIGMA in 2001 she was dying from a brain tumor @55yrs old I gave her my walkman with Return To Innocence ..now I am Native American Irish mix American she love all of the songs I hope it brought her some peace ,Thanks for what you do .
May she rest in peace :)

This is just timeless..the song takes you to where ever you want to go..it's beautiful

ah thank you i couldnt remember why enigma sounded familiar but i couldnt name any song, was def from Ameno that i knew that name then ^^
This was one of my absolute favorites, back in the 90's. It just sounds like pure sex and sensuality! Great memories of my first love.
Love Enigma 20 years now
This is part 1. Part 2 is instrumental and VERY haunting. The song is questioning pleasure and sexual desire, and is referring to the Marquis De Sade- the "S" in S&M.
Return to Innocence is my Fave ENIGMA track, A definite for a reaction 😉👍
Enigma changed my life as far as Music....they took me to a realm of instrumentation and vocals that i never knew existed.
I hear that over twenty-three years and almost everyday. For me is the best song ever int that kind of music.👏👏👏
Enigma is one of my top favorites.
4:26 there is a sexual undertone to this song. If you look up and listen to the CD single remix, Meditation Mix, and the Violent US Mix, you'll know why, especially the latter version which implies S&M

Of Course and there are Latin Words Sporen, at the Beginning. So the whole Song is very Provocative
I used to study to this in college, lay outside and listen to this, well, lots of things ! Still have the cd! :)
No matter what.... it's definitely bedroom music. Should be on every couple's special playlist.
Definitely A Sensual Track - 4️⃣sure❗️
Gosh I used to get lost listening to this song with candles around the bath soaking in warm steamy water with my partner and other stuff 😂
Their first album was just a different musical journey, the entire album was amazing!
Growing up as a teen, this made for some great 'get busy' music.
More Enigma please! Great reaction!
I love Enigma . Beautiful. My ex turned me onto it she had a tape I thought what is this? Cool music
God, I love these two. #KING#QUEEN:MUSICLOVERS
Mon album préféré de tous les temps, tout artiste confondu...
8 albums, 8 voyages auditifs ✨
J’aime beaucoup votre réaction, merci pour cette vidéo.
😘😘
200 K Congrats you crazy kids
Mel you're absolutely right ❤
Beautiful!
I was blasting this one day when I had a workman in the house installing an alarm system. He called me after he left to ask the name of the CD I was playing, he was at the store to buy it. Enigma is great music if you are lucky enough to be on the ocean.
Now, you can hear "the principles of lust"
Sade, dit moi…. Is that what I’m hearing? I have loved this song for so long and it just now clicked
sade, dis-moi, sade, donne-moi. sade, tell me. sade, give me.
You should check out Sandra who is part of Enigma.
Wow! 30 years later and it still has the same effect.
That's some staying power right.
They must have tapped into something primal

Listend to this constantly when it came out beautiful
Mr Shawn's gunna get some! haha loving you back guys! ❤
This was my first purchase on the "new" things called CDs in 1990.
this entire album is great
Since no one seems to be commenting on it, the song is not Sadness, it is Sade Ness as in marquie de Sade. An exploration of perversion, pain, joy.
My beautiful Red Headed Girlfriend, a bottle of Chivas Royal Salute, certain herbs and Her Hot Tub had this 'CD' on repeat back in the early 90's. And respectfully it's "Sadeness" not 'Sadness'.
It is Gregorian Chant . Prayers, in the past, were often chanted. Gregorian Chant is an example of this...in praise of God.
This song brings me back to being a little kid in the early 2000s. I first heard this on a movie called Single White Female and was instantly entranced. Now that I think about it, I’m pretty sure that whole soundtrack was a mood 😂
Mel got it spot on.A sultry and sexy track.
I was 13 when I first heard this song on Z99 and KJ103 in Oklahoma City.
It is the song about Marquis de Sade where the word Sadist as we know it today comes from so it is Sadeness
How in the world have you guys not heard of this song? It was very popular back in the 90s and you two look like you're in that age group.
YYEEeeeeeeeeeeSSssss...
WOOOooooooAAaaaaaaaaahhhhh.....
I've been an Enigma fan forever. Try this parts 1/2/3, you will like this even more, trust me, you'll thank me later, lol. Buckle up, in a good way. Enjoy, when you have the time to watch and really take it all in. th-cam.com/video/MIRfXznFzRY/w-d-xo.html
You wanna "vibe" to something? Check out Kool and The Gang "Summer Madness". 49 years old and still got it!
Miss Mel, you are never wrong. Lol
I would listen to this hiking. I’m so happy if you like.
One of my top 5 groups. Definitely worth a deep dive. Check out "Why" " TNT for the Brain" or "Silence Must be Heard"
You need to listen to all their albums, the remixes of Sadeness and Principles of Lust. Take your time with it, immerse yourself in it.
Yes is french, it is so beautiful, it say Sam tell me

My wife and I did our first massage to this song under candlelight!
These Gregorian Chants give you a mystical sound of casual sense of enlightment.Tony
The beat is classic and there's many remixes but some would call it baby making music. Mea culpa is the part 2.
You can find the video with lyrics and translation in one on youtube
solo les falta MEA CULPA ---ENIGMA
Enigma and Sade… def some baby making music. 🍼
That bland expression on her face is priceless! She doesn't like it one bit! SAD, I love this song. But to each it's own.
I wonder how many babies were made to this song when it first came out
I don't know what she was thinking but just incase Enigma has an English song called "Principles Of Lust" seriously intoxicating in the right company.
this is one if my favorite music groups ...ive been listening for over 20yrs.....check out enigma ft. micheal jackson its 🔥
This song was so amazing; it's a shame that Part 2 doesn't live up to it. Part 1 was so unique and different and innovative, and Part 2 was just a cover of Tocatta and Fugue in D Minor. It didn't even have the Enigma feel to it IMO.
So my hubs said back in his teenage days in the 90’s this was the make out and get busy with your girlfriend song 😂 So yep lol

if you like 3 dog night, Out in the Country is a must to listen to, trust me on this
These Gregorian Chants are peaceful.Tony
Next reaction should be DEEP FOREST. Same vibe. Start with Sweet Lullaby.
I love you guys so much. Please please please react to Leann Rimes' live version of "I Fall To Pieces" I know you will LOVE it

അടിപൊളി ❤❤
You should pick a song from each Enigma album to listen to and react to the differences between 1990 and 2016 with Enigma. No two albums sound the same.
Welcome to the beautiful and seductive world of ENIGMA..
Turn the lights off and close your eyes and most of all ENJOY❤
falaram mais do que ouviram a musica >>>>>>
Mel you are not alone - when this came out, many thought it was sexual
Shawn? Kama Sutra? Hop to it man! Mel is needing it. LOL Yes, Enigma is very sultry and sexy. I had this as my ringtone for over 2 years because that is how I roll. The real issue I have, I thought it was Sadness for years but they spell is Sadeness. I looked it up and got this. "It is a sensual track based around "questioning" the sexual desires of Marquis de Sade;" This where we get the word Sadism, the act of getting pleasure from inflicting punishmnet. But he was much more than that. Despite all the opinions about de Sade and his association with perversion, his works actually support sexual freedom, in the sense of enjoying one’s sexuality beyond the modesty and limitations imposed by one’s culture and upbringing.
Its Sadeness not Sadness.Enigma’s “Sadeness”-a hauntingly beautiful piece that weaves together mystery, sensuality, and a touch of the mystical. Let’s dive into it, shall we? 🎵
Origins and Inspiration:
The title itself is a clever blend of two words: “Sade” and “sadness.” Let’s unpack that:
“Sade” refers to the infamous Marquis de Sade, a French novelist and libertine from the 18th century. His name is synonymous with sexual exploration, but not the kind you’d find in a rom-com. No, no. De Sade believed that pleasure was intricately tied to pain. Yep, he was the one who gave us the term “sadism.” 🤔
Now, imagine a Gregorian chant-a type of solemn, meditative singing often heard in church music-floating through the air. It’s like ancient echoes reverberating across centuries. Enigma decided to blend this sacred sound with their electronic beats, creating something utterly unique.
The Music:
“Sadeness (Part I)” is a song by the German musical project Enigma. It was released in October 1990 as the lead single from their debut album, “MCMXC a.D.” (which is Roman numerals for 1990, by the way). 🎶
The music itself is an intoxicating mix of Gregorian chants, sensual beats, and mysterious whispers. It’s like stepping into a dimly lit cathedral where secrets linger in the shadows.
International Hit:
This track didn’t just tiptoe into the music scene; it sashayed right to the top. It reached number one in 14 countries. People couldn’t get enough of its enigmatic allure.
The video, too, is a visual feast-shrouded figures, candlelit corridors, and a sense of forbidden knowledge. It’s like Dan Brown’s “The Da Vinci Code” set to music. 🔍
Why You Should Listen:
Close your eyes and let the haunting melody wrap around you. It’s a journey-a pilgrimage through desire, mystery, and a touch of melancholy.
And hey, if you’re feeling adventurous, maybe listen to it while reading some Marquis de Sade. Just, uh, keep it PG-13. 😉
