I would pay anything to see this live.. I would sell my soul to see them perform Cantara like they did on Towards the Within live again. I can't believe I used to need drugs to be overcome emotionally with the beauty of their music.
Yes they did. The original show at the Barbican on April 6th sold out before Christmas. That venue was not available for a second night so Brendan and Lisa performed instead at The Forum in Kentish Town on April 7th. Thanks for your interest! Lewis garbarekfan
This was recorded on April 7, 2005 at The Forum in Kentish town so this is the exact concert you saw. All of my DCD videos that I have on youtube are from the same night. I have the professionally recorded, limited edition CDs from the same night and am working on marying the CD sound with the video for the entire concert. Hopefully I'll be done by the end of summer.

You know the truth is that WE - A R E - The Lotus Eaters. Think about it. We arrive to this place, partake of the pleasures / sorrows , and forget who we are. Where we have come from. This is a paean to our Journey of the Heros. Blessed Souls that we are!
I watched a prgramme many moons ago about the lotus eaters being egyptian the blue lotus being taken as a ritualistic aphrodisiac wish i could remember more about it.
There is no video of into the labyrinth, the only existing promo clips off that cd are yulunga and the carnival is over. perhaps you could be refering to the live dvd toward the within?
And if you sell it, what good would do to you to see them anymore? Lighten up, be patient and the Univers itself will conspire in fulfilling your dreams.
DCD in the city of Bordeaux end of 80's . One of the best moment i spent in my life... never felt the same.....
Forever “ The lotus Eaters” forever Dead can dance!!! Hello from Brazil!!!
I would pay anything to see this live.. I would sell my soul to see them perform Cantara like they did on Towards the Within live again.

Was in the audience with my sister. Amazing night i will never forget :)
Love this piece - It is mantra!!!
Wow, I am so pleased this is on here. I was there, feels like yesterday, and it's still one of the best concerts I have ever been to.
Absolutely mesmerizing. Her voice is like from another world. DCD, my love:)
there's also a poem, besides in The Odyssey, called "The Lotus Eaters".
This brings back great memories. Thanks Marina Berni for introducing me to DCD in 1988! Luv them!
Thats amazing... I wish I was alive when these guys were touring. Dam that would be cool!!! haha
Thanks!!! this is one of my very very favorites of DCD!!!!

Perfect Music ... Love Dead Can Dance .

Blessed Souls that we are!
So beautiful that there are no words, even the word beautiful can never really describe that WE ARE. Thank you

obsessed❤out of the world✨
I watched a prgramme many moons ago about the lotus eaters being egyptian the blue lotus being taken as a ritualistic aphrodisiac wish i could remember more about it.
Best song from "Spiritshaser"
oh! moi aussi j'habite Bordeaux! J'aimerais qu'ils y repassent!
Lisa Gerrard has a voice of an angel.
Parada nesse som !!!
i f-ing love dcd... they can really take you somewhere far away. you can almost see the opiated harem in afghanastan...
So beautiful...
Thnx for posting, I love this song!!!
Qué tema! Con esta canción no bailo yo, danza mi alma.
simply amazing
i agree. you don't need a chemical to enjoy beautiful music, unless you are intimidated by it I guess.
on the studio version is more slow but I like both live and studio!
just hits the spot
GREAT SONG!!!!!!!!!!
Wake est un trés bon album aves une excellente qualité sonore.
Je conseil aussi "rajnà"dans la mème lignée et ami de se groupe.

Me too!!
потрясающий голос у нее
2005? looks like it was shot back in the 70's!
I FEEL LIKE I AM IN A VERY DISTANT WORLD...VERY FAR FROM PLANET EARTH...
OR IN ANCIENT TIMES HERE ON EARTH........................
@selsmeister There was only the cd you could get from the officially. They gave you a leaflet when you went in. I got one from that night.
thanks for the info, ptolomej
Thanks fo post!fantastic as always!
Great Song, AMAZING BAND!
Do you have some more tracks to post?
Will be very welcome!
l'album c'est "wake"(2cd)
Me too :( !!!! it is so sad, i would sell my live to the devil to see them !
looking for the video of "into the labyrinth"...does anyone has ?
There is no video of into the labyrinth, the only existing promo clips off that cd are yulunga and the carnival is over. perhaps you could be refering to the live dvd toward the within?
I went to the concert in Mexico City in 2005. Great show but a little slow; they played all their slow songs.
I need the lyric!
@Sertrex93 are you new to DCD ? this is glossolalia.. no lyrics..
does anyone has the lyrics? I reaaaally need it
And if you sell it, what good would do to you to see them anymore? Lighten up, be patient and the Univers itself will conspire in fulfilling your dreams.
What scale is this using? Is this in Phrygian dominant? Makam hijaj?
@Metalicalypse cool as hell language from coolashellandia
what album is this on?
does anyone know the words to that song?
I'm not sure there are words. Gerrard got more and more experimental as time went by and at one point was just doing sounds, not words.
@rangumai
"They aren't playing fast, so this surely can't be music" - rangumai
No one, it's just "phonetics experiments" or something.
yes you named all the right bands but u forgot the best
van der graaf generator
She uses glossolalia. There are no words. She makes up syllables with no meaning and her own language, if you will.
Why she wear that sick white huge sheet??
So beautiful...
Thnx for posting, I love this song!!!
