Various Artists

 "Here in my room he calls me softly,

somewhere inside, hiding.

Angel of music hide no longer,

secret and strange angel."

Angel of Music

   Music has the power to soothe the spirit,

heal the heart and stir the ancient memories of the soul.

 The healing power of music lies not just in lyrics and melodies,

but in the energy and vibration of each note.

Certain sounds resonate within and

become a part of us, reaching into the shadows

and touching those places inside

that yearn for comfort and light.

 These are some of the artists

whose music has touched my life.

   I did not believe the information.

I just had to trust imagination.

'Son', he said,

'Grab your things I've come to take you home."

Solisbury Hill

 

Peter Gabriel

"Without a voice, without my pride, I reach out from the inside.

In your eyes, the light the heat. In your eyes I am complete.

In your eyes I see the doorways of a thousand churches.

The resolution of all the fruitless searches."

In Your Eyes

 

 "It's the one who wont be taken who cannot seem to give.

 And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely

and the road has been too long

 

 and you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong,

just remember in the winter, far beneath the bitter snow

lies the seed that with the suns love

in the spring becomes the rose."

Bette Midler, The Rose

 "You are pulled from the wreckage

of your silent reverie.

You're in the arms of the angels.

May you find some comfort here."

Angel

 

Sarah McLachlan

"I will remember you. Will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by.

Weep not for the memories."

 I Will Remember You

  

  "Strange how my heart beats

to find myself upon your shore.

 

Enya

Cold waves wash over and

drift away with dreams of you."

On Your Shore

   

"I'll tell you about the magic

that will free your soul...

Then you'll see that the magic's in the music

and the music's in me." John Sebastian

 

 "When some cold tomorrow finds you,when some subtle dream reminds you

how the endless road unwinds you, while you see a chance, take it."

While You See a Chance

Steve Winwood

"The finer things keep shining through, the way my soul gets lost in you.

The finer things I feel in me. The golden dance life could be."

The Finer Things

 

"O body swayed to music, Oh brightening glance

How shall we know the dancer from the dance?"

William Blake

I love almost all new age jazz.

But my favorite artists are the Rippingtons.

Each CD takes you to a different carefree, tropical, fantasy place.

Their website is as delightful as their music.

Be sure to play the madlib when you visit!

   

The Rippingtons

 "You hold the key to love and fear in your trembling hand.

Just one key unlocks them both. It's there at your command...

We are but moments of light, fading in the grass.

Till the one who left us here returns for us at last.

Come on people, smile on your brother.

Everybody get together.

Try to love one another right now."

Youngbloods

 

"There's no more hiding in shadows of fear.

The future is yours. You hold the key.

What's past is past. Don't turn around.

There's no turning back.

Phil Collins

"We have each other, we have one voice.

Hand in hand we will lay the track

because the train is coming to carry us home.

Come dance with me. Dance into the light."

Dance Into the Light

"When the dawn seemed forever lost,

you showed me your love in the light of the stars.

The mountain rose before me from the deep well of desire,

from the fountain of forgiveness, beyond the ice and the fire.

Loreena McKennitt

Give these clay feet wings to fly, to touch the face of the stars.

Breathe life into this feeble heart and lift this mortal veil of fear.

Take these crumbled hopes, patched with tears.

We'll rise above these earthly cares.

Cast your eyes to the ocean. Cast your soul to the sea.

When the dark night seems endless, please remember me."

Dante's Prayer

 "Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in

to the power of the music that I write.

The power of the music

of the night."

  

  "His voice filled my spirit with a strange sweet sound.

And through music my soul began to soar

and I heard as I'd never heard before."

Phantom of the Opera

 

I have felt such a connection to the music

of these musicians that the each deserves

a page of their own:

"This time we're saved by the music

Saved by the song we can sing.

This time we're saved by the music

Saved by the song that you bring."

"Saved by the Music", John Lodge

   "And in the end the love you take is equal to

the love you make."
