I bought their CD album 30 yrs ago

[@aestroai8012]

A friend gave me their CD at my old job. Powerful stuff like this will never get big. But at least it can be found. I'm 41 and I never saw this on MTV.

The movie, Blown Away brought me here. Very Beautiful indeed.

[@xxcrysad3000xx]

Likewise. My mom would always play this sorta new age celtic folky stuff growing up and I kinda hated it after a while, but now I sort of dig it. It's nice.

Same! Then when I saw the album cover I remembered my dad had the cassette when I was a kid.

U and me Both 👍

[@michaelescareno7048]

Same here. Saw that movie many years ago and instantly became a fan of this song.

[@brewster84067]

Played this at my wedding in '94. Every time I listen to this song it reminds of a time when I fell in love with my wife of 30 years (and counting). . This song, and album, means more to me than any other.

[@TheraP2014]

Oh that voice, an instrument in itself. Mary Fahl is one of the best singers on earth.

[@daveanajao]

I first heard this when I was 18 and now 25 years later I am still drawn to this hauntingly beautiful song.

[@Mntguy-nr9vl]

I remember this song 30 years ago. I had an ex who was my current at the time. We had a May December relationship and I had to move and it was dedicated to me. Many things have happened in my life in those 30 years but if I hear this song I can smell the smells and see everything like it was yesterday. This is one of the greatest albums I've ever heard I still own the CD I can listen to it front to back. My life would be less never having heard this music.

[@billmorris1903]

I have loved this song since it came out. Now I listen to it all the time, and think of my wife, who passed away not long ago.

[@catherineevans4718]

Good afternoon, Mr. Morris. I am sorry about your wife's death. You clearly have found memories of her for a beautiful melody like this to remind you of her. May God bless you and comfort you at this time

[@jeromepringle4949]

Sorry for your loss... Be strong and keep fighting.. You'll be fine...

Six years have passed, I am sure the pain is still with you in some form. I hope she returns to you in another life! I have loved this song for a long time.

Just heard this song on the old movie Blown Away. What beautiful voices. Truly gifted.

[@vickenator]

Thank you for this -- I was wondering where I'd first heard it.

[@jason3fc]

First heard this and Here’s Where the Story ends by the Sundays on the Blown Away soundtrack

[@MasonMcFaddenJessRehearsals]

Can't you just feel her passion? When she sings, she hugs the wind and the rain. She hugs the sound (the passion, the emotion) into herself and then releases it...

[@paullewis2413]

Amazing how this band is rarely heard these days as they were so talented. Thanks to KZbin I discovered them, never recall hearing anything from them on radio,

[@kevingager-tomkinson4606]

Marys voice is so beautiful, it flows over you absolutely gorgeous.

[@deoxyplasmic]

How am I supposed to listen to this and not cry? I think of my true self when I listen. Return to me... Such a lovely song.

[@aarongottfried5595]

You have to return

[@CanDoSo_org]

You rise like a wave in the ocean And you fall gently back to the sea Now I want to know how to hold you Return to me You shine like the moon over water And you darken the sky when you leave Now I want to know how to keep you Return to me Turn to me Everything I tell you has been spoken And everything I say was said before But everything I feel is for the first time And everything I feel, I feel for you I am here calling the wind I am here calling your name I am here calling you back Return to me I know what it means to be lonely And I know what it means to be free Now I want to know how to love you Return to me I am here calling the wind I am here calling your name I am here calling you back Return to me I am here Return to me

[@rbee9537]

Baywatch delivered me this song when I was 8. 19 yrs later it does Return To Me

[@pglover64]

I have! Been to see them twice. Love their music & Mary Fahl. In ‘97 I just moved into my new place and knew no neighbors. I played OP while moving in and to my surprise I started hearing the exact same song “Ariel” playing but now it was much louder. Went to turn the volume down and realized it wasnt coming from my stereo. Come to find out my neighbors loved OP also and decided to introduce themselves by playing the same song & same CD but cranked the volume up. About halfway through “Ariel” they came over and said “Hello”. All of us were surprised the other knew of OP. About 3 years later their 1st daughter was born, Ariel. We are still neighbors 24 years later and Ariel is now in college. Out of the blue I asked if she had ever asked her mom & dad where they got her name from. I knew but she said “no”. I told her to go ask her mom & dad. Not 10 minutes later I heard OP (Ariel) playing fairly loud on her car stereo while she began washing her car. About half way thru I cranked my stereo up also playing Ariel. We both let the entire CD play thru. Thru OP I met some of the best neighbors anyone could ever ask for. Thanks October Project!!

[@daintybrighton]

I love that story so much!

[@anfiwyn]

This continues to be an everlasting and haunting melody that will stand against the time.

I can't believe it's been more than 20 years since I heard this. The beautiful & shy voice of the 90s: October Project.

[@anamenher4126]

Tienes razon. Yo tambien.

Man, I would hardly describe Mary Fahl's powerful voice as "shy," but I still feel you.

What happened to them? The most unique group in decades. Where did October Project go?

[@catherineevans4718]

Good afternoon, Ms. Life. I agree. I was smitten with this song the very first time that I heard it in 1994, while waiting for The Bridges of Madison County, to start, at a movie theater.

[@Audiogeek-kf2ez]

This women's voice, Mary F, is an unbelievable tone and so beautiful, no other modern sing uses her voice in quite this way. 🥰

Two word.... Real Music!! finally found it after years of searching

[@DJJOHAN33]

I heard this song in the Movie Blown Away 94' Really a nice song. actually the best way to go back in time is to watch old 80's & 90's movies unless a scientist makes a time machine! Really love & miss those lovely days! Sad to say there would never be an era just like the 80's & 90's. Really love this song!!

[@ryanfreer77]

I wholeheartedly agree. Those times were truly special in ways far beyond nostalgic memories alone; even though I was 16 or 17 when this song was released. There was some kind of magic in the air. Most who experienced it remember, and as artists, we certainly connected with it.

[@AquarielCharms]

Mary Fahls voice is an instrument itself. I wish I could have seen Mary singing TAKE ME AS I AM and BE MY HERO, that would be something. But Sony blew the group & Mary away because of money instead of talent. I wish Mary great success she deserves it!!

[@unburningflame]

I remember turning the movie off right after the sound a bunch of times and writing the name down, but we didn't have the soundtrack locally back then. I wouldn't find this song again until around 2006. I still remember listening to the brief start of it from Blown Away then going outside to take a walk in nature in the undeveloped wild part of the neighborhood. On their album with this song another good one is called, "Where You Are". Try listening to it on a windy and warm day walking out in nature or driving in the country.

[@rob7054]

martindx1961 Good for you. I got hooked on this band when their first album came out and I had never heard a voice like Mary's before or since. I've a comment further on that links to her channel here. She is still performing and still as amazing as ever. What this group put together is timeless. It was very powerful, emotive music that had a very soothing, healing quality to it. This is a beautiful song and if you explore a little you'll find that their other songs were just as lovely.

[@dijobak]

Robert LaPrise I wound up w/ a cassette tape of the October Project's first release because this was the first collection of their music I found. I heard her voice in the 90's and was utterly transfixed. Lost all my CDs and still haven't found OctP, but still want their CDs. I've never heard a voice like hers. She is an original.

[@laschus]

The original October Project and Falling Farther In are still available on Amazon. I listen to them both end to end repeatedly every fall - it just seems the perfect time of year for their music. The other OctP albums are just not the same without Mary's haunting vocals.
