Je suis d'accord.🙂

I found, in another reaction to this video, a comment from Vinny Lc that explains the meaning of this song and his title, that he found in the documentation of the album Le Secret, which this song concludes. Recently lara had a podcast on her spiritual path and it added a few more explanations to the context of this song. I am combining both sources below to build my summary. A-WA is a notion introduced in the Shintoist religion, in japanese texts called kotodama; kotodama can be translated either as "soul words" or "sacred words". One of her best friend, Issa Padovani, was educated in this religion and created from there a spiritual and personal development path called Onsei-Do (japanese for the Way of Sound) and Lara got trained in this. In both kotodama and onsei-do, "A-WA" is the Light of the Soul used by the Source (U) to create everything. In Onsei-do, "A" is the word-soul that gives the "La" of the atomic symphony creating our universe, the "Big Bang" known to scientists. The echo of this original sound was recorded in 2001, resonating throughout the universe 14 billion years later … "WA" is the resonance in the material of this primordial "A". "A-WA" is the dimension of the Unconditional and Indivisible Love which manifests itself as an individual, in order to taste oneself as a multitude. "A-WA" is the Light of the Source, the Love Song of Life itself, the Inner Force which invites every being to find its true nature, the recall of our Divine nature. Following Onsei-do teaching, Lara learned to love herself better to be able to really love others, reached some serenity and the force to go through most of the challenges she faced ; the fact the sound there is the main energy and creative source obviously resonated a lot with her own life and passion. Now some comments on the recording itself: In the mid of this video, at tea break, Lara discusses with Manu Pitois, her pianist and musical director/producer. She said to him "this is the best album I ever made, thanks so much !". This song composition is from Janey Clewer and they co-wrote the lyrics with Lara. Janey is an accomplished singer-songwriter (as Lara) and she is a friend of Lara since she wrote a (beautiful) song for her called Bambina. They decided to build an entire album together and this gave us this magnificent Le Secret album, 14 songs entirely co-written by both. At the end of the A-WA video here, Lara says to Manu Pitois: "this song is gorgeous, what a brilliant idea from Janey to had this melody re-adapted, pure genius, and your arrangement is a masterpiece"

Thank you, Eric. Very interesting. I certainly agree with Lara's assessment of the song. It is gorgeous. 🙂

@@rjjsreactions-rk7zh yes, Lara went thru so many obstacles ( many important health issues, many love and professional betrayals, …) but she was always humble and benevolent to others and nowadays she has found love ( she just celebrated 10th anniversary of her wedding two days ago) and reached serenity and happiness. Her spiritual journey surely contributed to this major achievement.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

@@ericsicard910 I am glad that she has found her way and is in a happy relationship. Life is filled with obstacles and trials, and each person has his or her own journey. I only believe the spiritual metaphorically these days but I understand the draw. Congratulations on her 10th wedding anniversary - that's great. Having the right person with you can be extraordinarily helpful. My wife and I were together for 32 years (married 21 of those), and I miss her every day. I respect the hard work and dedication of people and what they can achieve with or perhaps despite the cruelty of nature (and the beauty, too, of course). 🙂

Thanks for this reaction. It is a very different Lara from the earlier performances. It is part of a really innovative Le Secret album of 2013, not only in its sound but in its poetry. It comes from a collaboration with Janey Clewer and Manu Pitois and doubtless others. Lara herself says it is one of the best songs she has sung.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

My pleasure. It is amazing. 🙂

[@songbirdy]

Lara prepares and trains like a dedicated athelete does. A true Olympian in her field. She absolutely jaw dropping amazes me.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

She does seem to be quite the professional in everything she does. 🙂

Hi RJJ Just to ad to Eric's comment. Here is what is said by the coffemachine and after the song. This was also in Vinny Lc comment. For info here is the translation of what is being said in the middle of the song: LARA : Manu, I take the opportunity that we are being filmed, and we are supposed to be totally our natural selves, to tell you that you are a genius MANU: oh, I am just… LARA: And this way it will be on tape… MANU: Ok, if you see it that way... LARA: You are a genius, you are a f..king genius, I am extremely lucky MANU: No, it’s me… LARA: Then we both are… but I can tell you this is the most beautiful album I ever recorded ! And here what is being said at the at the end of the song: LARA : This song is really sublimisticious. Frankly, hats off to Janey Clewer for this idea of the readapted melody.And your arrangement, Manu, is just masterful, masterful. It is so spot on, it is so much what was required, this song is extraordinary FEMALE VOICE?: It is magnificent. It is really very beautiful. MANU?: The song has the “size” to “close” the show (ie last song of the future concert) LARA: The song has the “size” to “close” the show, that is correct. Love Lara ❤ Love form Denmark ❤

Well, I liked the song regardless - lol. 🙂It's kind of fun to play with these ideas, but I don't believe in the soul or devine nature or God (or god), etc. Lara's extremely talented and a force of nature though!

[@bernadetteestrera8555]

@@rjjsreactions-rk7zh Lara appears to be a free soul, not religious but open to possibilities.

Sure - Lara's great! I will add that one to my list. Thank you. 🙂

Ciao, l'uomo che prende il caffè con LARA non è il marito è MANU PITOIS il suo direttore tecnico e anche il suo bravissimo pianista, questa canzone ha il testo un po' oscuro e spirituale e non è di facile interpretazione. A me è sufficiente ascoltare la fantastica voce di LARA il resto per me non ha importanza. Tanti saluti.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Thank you for the correction. Lara's voice is amazing. I was impressed by all the artists and work that goes into creating these songs. I'm glad they showed a bit of it. 🙂
