No words will ever adequately describe the positive change you affected in the world with your creation of this song. Absolutely and forever life-altering. Your song, your voice, and your lyrics are forever imprinted on my soul. I can't imagine a world in which you never made Southern Sun. Millions of people worldwide share a connection because of you, a connection that wouldn't have existed without you. Carla Werner, thank you. Thank you for being an artist, for creating, and for sharing.
Wow thank you Mr. Hernandez. No words in response. I am grateful to have had my ear pinned to the universe at the time of writing it, and so grateful for music that it can echo in frequency beyond the point it came through, for eternity. Much appreciation for your time to write. x Carla
Is this the best song on UA-cam of the best song on UA-cam? Think this is it. I mean, what could make it better with that Voice? Only a Grand Piano or a Cathedral Organ. ❤
Is there any possible way you could sing this again with the backing of a Grand Piano... Or a Cathedral Organ... Magic would truly happen@@carlawernerofficial
I remember hearing this song for the first time on Sirius satellite radio, as I was driving a load of freight in a rainstorm. The vocals absolutely blew me away, been in my top five favourites ever since.
I remember when I was little and as soon as I got home after school I used to turn on the radio to listen to this masterpiece, every day. I love it. Not much songs can make you feel peace like this. ¡Absolutely wonderful!
.............................................. I lived in Miami in 2003. That's when I first heard this song. Love it. This is the first time I've heard this particular acoustic version. Hypnotizing. Beautiful voice.
Once you hear it you'll realize it wasn't music mod tools that made her voice, it's just.. her. With one effect, a light amount of echo, one. It's impressive to hear it in the raw.
Thank you Matthew! It's almost my favorite way to perform a track... I appreciate what DJ's do to create 'elevation' around a song, but at the end of the day, it all begins with melody and voice doesn't it?
21 years ago, summer of 2002 in Greece... I remember staring at the full moon on the beach, listening to this on my CD player. It was hypnotic... feels like another lifetime ago... Thanks for all these memories Carla! I 'll never forget your voice!
Oh god I had to laugh - cd player! I had one too!!!! Gosh doesn't it feel like another time all together. Our world has changed a lot since then, but LOVE is the key... I love you have good memories with the song Themis. I love Greece. Thank you for your response. I appreciate it. Very much.
A voice for the heavens...it TRULY tears my soul. The emotion. The depth. The range. Thank you for sharing your gift. Reminds me there is humanity in this cold world. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️
Than you Dana. Oh wow ! I hope that as long as I am divining the great energy that we are a part of and that is abundant in all of us, that I always portray truth through my music. It's not my right to be any other kind of way. Thanks for leaving your comment Dana xxxx
Carla, you did much more than you think with my generation, it was an anthem for us in hungary...with your voice, with Paul, and of course big thanks for Tiesto+ Gabriel and Dresden as well...💖💖💖
WOW this is a really great thing to read... I get so lucky when I come on here and read these comments, especially when they're heart-centered and authentic ... I love to hear how this song has imprinted on other's lives.... Thank you for sharing with me... I think so huh? Southern Sun belongs to our generation xxxx and always will and we all share it! Awesome.
Thank you Fer! Wow I love that - it is still so relevant to people today, and looks like there might be more renditions coming in the new year to mark the 20th anniversary. Greetings from New Zealand. I have long wished to travel to Argentina xx
Carla, i am from russia. Оne of my favorite trance songs was with your vocal. And each year i fall in love with you more and more. Your voice is incredible. Wish you the Best. Just keep singing
Dear Carla, beautifully haunting and this acoustic version just takes the song to an entirely higher realm. The reverb / echo effect is brilliant too. It makes it feel like you’re listening to this in a vast empty room with vaulted ceilings. I adore your tone and vocal expression. You have an impressive skill for phrasing too. Your higher register is sublime, your head voice evokes the feeling of soaring high like a bird. And your chest voice has an earthy richness. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece. It was always one of my all time favourite trance songs. But stripped back it’s just an entirely different creation. Magical. Honestly, thank you so much for sharing. I feel honoured to have been able to appreciate this gift.
You know I am so so floored by all these incredible comments, and the way music moves us all is just such good medicine isn't it? I've always been grateful for the gift of singing, but it belongs to all of us and in music, we are together you know? So important and so vital for these days especially. Thank you for being here. For sharing your feelings about Southern Sun and my singing. X
No! I think it was Miles Davis said you can't play the blues without knowing the blues. I wrote this song based on my own emotions of a break up - or pending break up some kind of doom I knew was looming, but I was going through many changes in my life at this time. It comes out in music. It's why it is so healing - we are all going through being human together - it's not easy at times. Thank you for stopping in to say hi xxx
aw thank you. I always feel very grateful the particular melody & arrangement came together the way it did and touched so many folks. That's always going to be a bizarre far out moment for me. x
Wow. I love the extended mix of the original version. But this is also epic. Because of your voice Carla I still feel that this is a trance song though this is acoustic.
This has hit me like a tonne a bricks, so many emotions at once! This is one of my all time favourites, this is such a stunning version of it, thank you!
I cry almost everytime I listen to this song. It takes me to a place out of this world, full of love and freedom. Your voice and the melody is so angelic. I still remember the first time I heard it. At a Tiesto party. I can't even describe the feelings I felt. I just remember I almost froze, the song touched me. When it ended I was running around asking people what song was that🤣 One of the best moments of my life. It is very hard to pick one favourite song but I know THIS is mine. Thank you for this masterpiece🥰
Simon - I had to re-think my response, and I just wanted to say thank you again for being here with me, for being inside the song in the way you were, and that it is really special to be in a memory of yours inside this song... thank you for the lovely comments on my voice.. and this song... and that you were running round asking people what it was ha! That's cool... I remember a friend telling me "hey this guy Tiesto remixed your song - your voice was spilling over 60,000 people tonight!" that was 20 years ago. Wow! Stay real. Thank you Simon. So much for sharing. xxx
I hope you'll know how much we love this song! It just sounds divine in your voice. You have one of the most lovely voice in electronic music. I just don't have words to describe the feelings that come from hearing you singing this anthem! Long life to the real Trance music! Long life to your voice! Long life to you, Carla Werner! Long life to Southern Sun (All Versions)!!! Greetings from your fans from Brazil!
Paulo! WOWOWOWOOWOWOW Epic and thank you so much for speaking to me about how you feel - I just love all these comments. Maybe one day I'll come through and sing this for you X
there are very few tracks like southern sun, one of the best pieces of music ever conceived. shame that the most popular version of it only has 4.8M views. great work carla ♥:D
Wow. This is so, so good. I can't believe we didn't hear more of your voice in trance after 'Southern Sun" considering how good the vocals & lyrics are. I always thought they were very unique and we all missed out from not hearing more.
Thank you Dan. Wow what a great compliment you pay me. I did a few songs after with a few producers, but yes I should have done more in trance. I might still do more.. I'd really like to xx
Ok I think i got it. Carla, I did heard Southern S lots of times and fall in love with your voice. Thank you a lot (i didnt understand in advance this "tribute" was you, sorry).
Hi Rayanne. I did not make this 20 years ago. I recorded this video last year in April as per description above. I wrote the song 20 years ago. :) hope that clears it up
Carla, thank you so much for this amazimg acoustic version of my all time favourite trance song... brings me back in good old times and reminds me never to forget the love to "my" music as companion in life. Hugs from me!!
So great that a song has such a long life span… longer than you or I in fact on this planet … love music for this reason and that this song belongs to your memories xxxx beautiful
@@carlawernerofficialIt wouldn't be an overstatement to claim that this song is embedded in the hearts of (tens of) millions. It's like a tattoo we all have since 2002, and it will not fade away.
Thank you for working with Paul Oakenfold on Southern Sun. 🙏🙏🙏 Beautiful track I bought on vinyl back in 02 perfecto label. I am still strictly vinyl only classic trance dj. I used it in my 3 hr Language Of The Dragons set on my UA-cam channel with 4 Strings - take me away(vocal mix)mix in and Tiesto - In my memory(Airwave remix)mix out. That set is dedicated in loving memory of my cat that passed away back in November 2021 and the track selection used tells my story of the rollercoaster ride of emotions i went through leading up to my cats passing… Thank you again for some of the most beautiful vocals put into amazing trance music. 🙏🙏🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 🐉☁️
My pleasure .. love that you have it on vinyl, and I'm a classic lover of vinyl! Is there a link to your Language of Dragons would love to see/hear it and I'm so sorry about your cat passing. My gosh, I have had a dog go, so I understand how hard it is. :( X
@@carlawernerofficial ua-cam.com/video/GbEv60KNfm8/v-deo.html thank you Carla for the reply. I am not as good as the legends, but they inspired me to pick up DJing in the late 90s. So a couple of mixes might be slightly offbeat but fixed… hey its vinyl 😎😎😎 Check the description box for disclaimers and track listing.
This has been playing on Smooth Chill (UK) for ages. Only just found the title today now its mine. Thanks, made an old man happy, will take it to Dignitas.
Simply beautiful Carla ...your an absolute Legend .. this Song will forever be close to my Heart ..one of the best ever Trance tracks laid down.This acoustic version just exceeds all imagination.. We all Love You ❤️....thankyou for all you have done xx🙏
Oh wow thank you Tony you're a gem! Thank you beautiful compliments - we are working on something very special and perhaps soon we'll be in your town singing it along with other great trance singers. xxx
@@carlawernerofficial thankyou for the reply Carla ..for taking the time out of your busy schedule ....its so much appreciated and I'm very greatful....just continue being You. We all love ❤️ You ...now and Forever xx
I have an analogy for how i felt when i was a kid listening to this song, paul's music was like the spaceship and your voice was the fuel that took me to the stars and way beyond in the chorus. In my country cable TV was not a thing my family could afford so there was this open air music channel that had this video and like 30 other songs only running all day long and I was so happy they kept on rolling the video, it made me cry.
oh wow !!!! what a cool story to share! This is incredible... yeh I think it doesn't really matter how the music gets transmitted, as long as it does. I think we are SOOO lucky to have music to share with each other and its a huge part of our spirit as a race. That's for sure! Thanks for sharing ... what a gift. xxx
Wow…awesome hearing this. This song was one of the first i heard when i was introduced to trance way back when… Im now 40 and still reminise on those euphoric days gone by…
Το ηχόχρωμα της φωνής σου είναι μαγευτικό, και αγγίζει τους ανθρώπους που διακατέχονται απο τα κατάλληλα αισθητήρια! Είναι υπέροχη αυτή η διασκευή σε ενα κομμάτι του Paul Oakenfold που εμείς οι μεγαλύτεροι το έχουμε χορέψει στο dancefloor των clubs εκείνη την εποχή. Your voice is divine! Blessings from Greece!
Sure is time travel! How funny is it that this song was born 20 years ago, but it's still relevant. Love music so much, some of it stays gold if it was written from the heart I believe anyway
Absolutely incredible. I can't believe this doesn't have millions of views. I came accross this video without reading properly, and thought wow what a lucky woman, she sounds just like the original singer 🤣 You're instantly recognisable and always will be. Very fond memories and probably my favourite song of all time, up there with Robert Miles - Children. Thanks for sharing.
haha! how funny! I don't think many people are used to seeing the actual artist doing a rendition of a trance song in such a raw way. I think it sort of stuns people. I've always existed musically under the radar, I suppose that's my own fault, for fear of being seen too much .. Next year I am planning to come out into the world and play this song live with a few friends who also had huge tracks in the EDM world from that time. Would you come and see us perform all the fave trance tracks from early 000's? Putting it together as we speak. xxx Thank you for writing here. So lovely of you to drop a comment. Really appreciate it. Together we all have a home in music.
Why am I only hearing this now in 2023 . January is nearly over but this just made the year a whole lot better. I love acoustic music and this definitely hits different
This is pure heart throbbing to my soul, it brings me back to the early 2000s when the sun was a big part of our lives, whether we were searching or living for it's light. One of my all time favorites but this acoustic revives those memories of what I missed so much being young in and out of love, it never gets easy know matter how far we can distance away. This is so moving, one of the best acoustic covers thank you for pouring your heart into it, this means a lot to many us, thank you.
OH MY GOD! Dear Carla, I've been searching for the acoustic version of this song for a long time.... And now I feel like I'm in HEAVEN! A MILLION TIMES THANK YOU....
I've been going through some Oakenfold videos lately, then this one popped up. What a beautiful voice you have. I've watched this several times, and even sent this to friends and co-workers. Peace and love from Philadelphia.
wow, wooow, wooooow. Your song makes me cry just listening to it, firstly because of your beautiful voice that you have, secondly because of the things that happened to me in my life, I got married, my children were born, my children grew up and this song always accompanies me, in my car , in my cell phone, in my house, everywhere it goes with me. It stayed engraved in my mind and heart forever with fire and love. And I will take it with me always. Greetings from Mexico.
oh wow the song is like an old friend then? Love that it's traveled through time with people in their lives, that is the beauty of music. Thank you for leaving such a genuine and meaningful comment Sergio. Greetings! I'd love to come to Mexico to perform.
Omg! It’s just divine…
I fell out of reality for 4 minutes.
omg! I this is my favorite comment! and wow thats so cool xxx

Thank you again for some of the most beautiful vocals put into amazing trance music. 🙏🙏🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
🐉☁️
My pleasure .. love that you have it on vinyl, and I'm a classic lover of vinyl! Is there a link to your Language of Dragons would love to see/hear it and I'm so sorry about your cat passing. My gosh, I have had a dog go, so I understand how hard it is. :( X
@@carlawernerofficial ua-cam.com/video/GbEv60KNfm8/v-deo.html thank you Carla for the reply. I am not as good as the legends, but they inspired me to pick up DJing in the late 90s.
So a couple of mixes might be slightly offbeat but fixed… hey its vinyl 😎😎😎
Check the description box for disclaimers and track listing.
Speechless. Your voice is as I remember it 20 years ago. Thank you for loading up this rendition. Viva la Trance!

You are my best friend in every summer.
Thank you !
ha! I absolutely love this comment! x
You are a treasure, thank you for this! ❤️
Thank you! for loving it and keeping it in existence. x
I have an analogy for how i felt when i was a kid listening to this song, paul's music was like the spaceship and your voice was the fuel that took me to the stars and way beyond in the chorus.
In my country cable TV was not a thing my family could afford so there was this open air music channel that had this video and like 30 other songs only running all day long and I was so happy they kept on rolling the video, it made me cry.
oh wow !!!! what a cool story to share! This is incredible... yeh I think it doesn't really matter how the music gets transmitted, as long as it does. I think we are SOOO lucky to have music to share with each other and its a huge part of our spirit as a race. That's for sure! Thanks for sharing ... what a gift. xxx
Absolutely wonderful Carla ❤️❤️🌈🕺
Thank you Graeme xxxx
Wow…awesome hearing this.
This song was one of the first i heard when i was introduced to trance way back when…
Im now 40 and still reminise on those euphoric days gone by…
So love that about this song being, for many, the first trance song that took a hold for them in the genre. Thank you for writing about it here xx
beautiful voice,great song
thank you xxxx
I ll always experience the sea with this song as soundtrack 🌅
Marked 4 life ✨🧬
wow beautiful x
Still perfect! Hello from Russia.
thank you xxxx
I am pieces on the wind, unrelaaaaaaateeeddd. I still feel yoouuuu, beneath my skin. You have beautiful voice Carla...
thank you Colin x
Карла, привет из России, голос у вас красивый.
Το ηχόχρωμα της φωνής σου είναι μαγευτικό, και αγγίζει τους ανθρώπους που διακατέχονται απο τα κατάλληλα αισθητήρια! Είναι υπέροχη αυτή η διασκευή σε ενα κομμάτι του Paul Oakenfold που εμείς οι μεγαλύτεροι το έχουμε χορέψει στο dancefloor των clubs εκείνη την εποχή. Your voice is divine! Blessings from Greece!
I wish I could understand but thank you xxxx
I've been coming back to this video regularly for a year. One of the loveliest hidden gems that I visit on UA-cam on a Sunday afternoon.
Oh gosh Andrew love this! Love reading this it is a good one for Sunday isn't it??? XX
What an incredible voice. Real admiration for your playing the guitar as well. Brilliance personified.
Thank you Robert xxx
that emotional song... its a time travel
Sure is time travel! How funny is it that this song was born 20 years ago, but it's still relevant. Love music so much, some of it stays gold if it was written from the heart I believe anyway
Listen now...best song ever
Yay! x
Absolutely incredible.
I can't believe this doesn't have millions of views. I came accross this video without reading properly, and thought wow what a lucky woman, she sounds just like the original singer 🤣
You're instantly recognisable and always will be. Very fond memories and probably my favourite song of all time, up there with Robert Miles - Children.
Thanks for sharing.
haha! how funny! I don't think many people are used to seeing the actual artist doing a rendition of a trance song in such a raw way. I think it sort of stuns people. I've always existed musically under the radar, I suppose that's my own fault, for fear of being seen too much .. Next year I am planning to come out into the world and play this song live with a few friends who also had huge tracks in the EDM world from that time. Would you come and see us perform all the fave trance tracks from early 000's? Putting it together as we speak. xxx Thank you for writing here. So lovely of you to drop a comment. Really appreciate it. Together we all have a home in music.
Your words inspired me to play along with piano this video... What a wonderful piece of art. Thanx so much Carla. Greets from Buenos Aires. Love!
Greetings Pedro! That's so fun love hearing you were inspired to play xx
@@carlawernerofficial Really! And you've got to re-launch the song, this extremely nice lovely dearest song! ;-) xx
Why am I only hearing this now in 2023 . January is nearly over but this just made the year a whole lot better. I love acoustic music and this definitely hits different
haha! I'm so glad you made it!!! it only took me 20 years to record the acoustic version.
This is pure heart throbbing to my soul, it brings me back to the early 2000s when the sun was a big part of our lives, whether we were searching or living for it's light. One of
my all time favorites but this acoustic revives those memories of what I missed so much being young in and out of love, it never gets easy know matter how far we can
distance away. This is so moving, one of the best acoustic covers thank you for pouring your heart into it, this means a lot to many us, thank you.
Thank you for sharing... this means ALOT to me ❤️
Well that was better than I thought it was gonna be😵, wow….euphoric flashbacks ♥️♥️
Euphoria! Love that word ;)
OH MY GOD! Dear Carla, I've been searching for the acoustic version of this song for a long time.... And now I feel like I'm in HEAVEN! A MILLION TIMES THANK YOU....
wow so happy to read this Oliver!!! This makes me light up to be able to give you this version :) A million times your welcome! xxxx
Carla... is brilliant !!! 👑
hello dear Pavel! You're my biggest fan x
@@carlawernerofficial Hello my dearest Carla !!! I can't say how grateful am I to you! I adore you !!! ❤❤❤ xxx
wow, beautiful.
thank you MM x
I've been going through some Oakenfold videos lately, then this one popped up. What a beautiful voice you have. I've watched this several times, and even sent this to friends and co-workers. Peace and love from Philadelphia.
Oh wow! how cool. Oh thanks.. Wow!!! LOVE Philadelphia... Hope to come through there in July next year... Will let you know.
@@carlawernerofficial Please do. I'd love to see you.
wow, wooow, wooooow. Your song makes me cry just listening to it, firstly because of your beautiful voice that you have, secondly because of the things that happened to me in my life, I got married, my children were born, my children grew up and this song always accompanies me, in my car , in my cell phone, in my house, everywhere it goes with me. It stayed engraved in my mind and heart forever with fire and love. And I will take it with me always. Greetings from Mexico.
oh wow the song is like an old friend then? Love that it's traveled through time with people in their lives, that is the beauty of music. Thank you for leaving such a genuine and meaningful comment Sergio. Greetings! I'd love to come to Mexico to perform.
out of this world, ethereal eternal truth.
aw so sweet thank you x
@@carlawernerofficial Thanks Carla
