Children Of The Sun - Dead Can Dance

Children Of The Sun - Dead Can Dance
We are ancient
As ancient as the sun
We came from the ocean
Once our ancestral home
So that one day
We could all return
To our birthright
The great celestial dome
We are the children of the sun
Our journey's just begun
Sunflowers in our hair
We are the children of the sun
There is room for everyone
Sunflowers in our hair
Throughout the ages
Of iron, bronze, and stone
We marvelled at the night sky
And what may lie beyond
We burned our frames
To the elemental ones
Made sacrifices
For beauty, peace and love
We are the children of the sun
Our kingdom will come
Sunflowers in our hair
We are the children of the sun
Our carnival's began
Our songs will fill the air
And you know it's time
To look for reasons why
Just reach up and touch the sky
To the heavens we will sing
We are the children of the sun
Our journey has begun
Are we older children
Come out at night
And even soulless
Great hunger in their eyes
Unaware of the beauty
That sleeps tonight
And all the queen's horses
And all the king's men
Will never put these children back
Together again
Faith, hope, our charities
Breathe slow, our enemies
We are the children of the sun
We are the children of the sun

dead can dance sind mein opium ich bin jahrelang süchtig nach ihrer musik vorallem die stimme von brandon finde ich göttlich überirdisch ich habe ihn 2018 live imünchen im strom gesehen mit seiner band er hat einer coverversion eines tim buckley song gespielt es war ein sehr schönes intimes konzert herrlich

[@EstebanMataVargas]

Still 20 years ago millions of people were listening to this music on a daily basis. Even on the radios many songs of DCD, Sarah McLachlan, Deep Forest, Enigma, Francesca Gagnon, and Tori Amos ranked very high in the charts. Now none of this can be found in the mainstream. Everything is mostly bloody reguetón and other similar shit. I´m an old man now, so I earned the right to wonder what happened.

[@Pandhelito]

The mainstream media happened my friend...promoted mediocrity and the results can be observed everywhere we go. Gone are the good, old, days of Humanity. This song is just pure awesomeness.

[@robynguinn8941]

I'm an old lady who thinks the same but I also know deep in my heart we got to experience, enjoy and live with the best music ever produced....I feel sorry for todays youth who have never experienced this music, never heard of it and could care less anyway.

[@gregclark2554]

Wow...I forgot about Deep Forest! Thank you :)

[@spynena]

Gives me a very refined Jim Morrison vibe DCD is pure genius there is nothing out in the music world that is close to their sound. You just lose yourself in their music they touch something so primitive in your being. Those of you who have seen them live count yourselves truly lucky.

[@Ominous89]

If you know the lyrics by head, you can sing The End from the Doors through the song while it's playing. Like real background singing the lyrics through it. It even fits perfectly.

[@Xavier-Denis]

So true

[@stephenbradley6285]

In order for sunlight to reach your skin, it has taken thousands of years from the sun’s core to reach the surface and travel to the earth, through the atmosphere to give you the experience of light and warmth,and if you’re natural you will feel the texture of love in the sun’s rays…

[@betsydaggett1545]

This is the kind of video I used to dream up in my head as a kid (70's) and I was all set to be a master of animation... then computers happened and I am still catching up!!! lol (but I am an ace at tech history, as I was there for it's infancy...)

[@donnarawlinsfrench220]

DCD's concert at the Sydney Opera House several years ago was beyond extraordinary. This song was but one of a wonderful double set of familiar, yet ever-beautiful musical journeys. Lisa, Brendan and their band delivered one of the most inspiring, atmospheric concerts of my four-decade+ musical experiences.

The relationship between body and soul is via emotion.The world is a much greater body of a much greater soul

[@mk202]

This song and it’s message...the way it’s offered is so powerful. I don’t know much of anything at this time in my life. If I could belong to just this, live for only this, make this stronger and more beneficial to all who would come to love it as much as I do...I’d grab my coat and follow it forever. There’s nothing in my life except this that I could give myself to, completely and totally...without question.

I said too much already It is good to actually hear in the human voice what you experience from the sun. The dawn sun enters your belly, rises up through your body ,out the top of your head and wraps you with a protective cloak... Nowadays the suns rays just make you aware of its presence Sun conveys the natural energy of being.

The infinite beauty that we are gifted as our distant neighbors, the mesmerizing clouds of gas that is accelerating almost a quarter the speed of light, the never ending void, the fact of knowing that you are here, and you think, and your heart is beating, is one of the greatest gifts this universe has bestowed upon us.
