It was a homecoming for me to first hear her voice .....She is the reason I started singing as I was in the closet for a couple years not sharing. She has significantly influenced and touched many lives. Dead Can Dance has inspired many musicians and percussionists as well.
Beautifully explained. Music is the language of God. We see God's awesome beauty every day, yet sadly we fail to recognize it. Lisa describes it perfectly.
No problem at all. In case you're interested, here are a few other bands that incorporate tribal, medieval, ethnic, and world music into their style: Faun, Corvus Corax, Irfan, Omnia, and Delirium. Also, Brendan and Lisa are touring as Dead Can Dance right now...you can go to their website and check the tour dates, if you're interested in seeing them live. I highly recommend it; they're brilliant live.
@032125 Negativity, negativity. The fact remains, she's successful and loved by all, while some people are foulmouthing famous characters on the internet just to feel a little bit better about themselves. I have no trouble understanding her "inane rambling" at all, but of course I know what she's talking about. She's an improviser, music come to flesh. I'm not as good, but trying, so I have perspective. Lighten up and stop analyzing what can't be analyzed by the likes of you.
@032125 Why not philosophy? Most philosophers are difficult to grasp at best and incomprehensible at worst, unless you are prepared to open your mind to unfamiliar thought structures, which superficially may seem quite irrelevant and alien to the tangible reality. Civil rights, national states, the abolition of slavery and the eight hour working day were once seen as folly and nonsense, until thinkers formulated the ideas, put them in print and saw people turn them to reality.Lisa is the future.
@032125 Actually, I'm one of the most rational people alive. I could have included my whole chain of conclusion, but there's a limit to the length of a YT message, so I just skipped 90% of it and went straight to the crux. Lisa can do it and so can I. I was a lot like you, till I realized pure intelligence can be deceptive. Successful rationality requires access to ALL existing data, which is something none of us have. So, I fill the gaps with approximations. Is that mysticism or an algorithm?
@032125 Indeed, being insane has nothing to do with proximity to the divine. I have met insane people much closer to the Devil than divinity. Insanity is just insanity. There's also socially defined insanity, which classifies as insane anybody who differs from social norms. As for "babbling and rambling", Lisa's way too smart to get to the point. She IS the point. Don't expect to understand everything, unless you can BE music, or at least try. I mean, don't listen, don't make but BE music.
@032125 Not lost, just suffering like the rest of us. Perhaps somewhere along the line somebody ordered you to fit in a box way too small for your soul. Now the box is cramping your growth and hurting your soul. You went to Eckhart for help and something inside you just knew LG can make dead souls dance. Good. So, what's all this negativity? It's the box telling you it's you. "You don't really have to open the box, just stay in the dark, ignoring the truth." The box is evil, but it's not you.
Well, I hate the so-called "New age" stuff as well. But this NA stuff has been around for hundreds or thousands of years. 95% has been shown time after time to be BS. BUT, because the universe had a beginning and expanded and this 'energy' became atoms and molecules and gases to solids-all of this 'stuff' is what we are made of. We know when two electrons are created at the same time, you can separate them and do something to one and the other responds instantly. We are all connected. Always.
papasitoman, you're understanding of physics is certainly not a rag bag of new age vacuous nonsense. (but lisa gerard is not a philosopher, she is a (damn good) singer). :)
@032125 You already know Eckhart? So, you're not a lost cause after all. If anything he says sounds weird, it means the listener is not yet in touch with himself enough to understand. The time is coming, though.... Try YogeeshAshram's channel. Now, there's a smart man who goes straight to the point, clearly, succinctly and without beating around the bush. If people feel like worshiping, they'll always find something to worship. Lisa's a whole lot better for that than most others. Could do worse.
@032125 Cute? You should see me when I really get started. Troll after troll has suffered a hideous, but swift end in my hands. Well, enough narcissism for tonight. You're just so wrong about the deep specialization. That's what qualifies her to say pretty much anything she wants about music in any way she pleases. If there's something unclear, you may rest assured it is the mere mortal who's not been paying attention. Negativity is keeping you down. Lose it. Check out Eckhart Tolle for help.
"her philosophy is a rag bag of new age vacuous nonsense" At least she's trying.....ask any artist these days if they have any sense of, say, reality or their respective take on the philosophy of music..they'd be lost ......
she talks a LOT of shit, but her voice is stunning, beautiful. What a shame she feels the need to fill a void in her knowledge with mystical rhetoric. The music IS 'god'. What is IS 'god'. It is life-force, structured for our aesthetic pleasures.
We will never see another Lisa Gerrard or Brendan Perry again. They are truly unique souls.
I just love this woman! she makes complete sense to me
She is so brilliantly articulate. She can move me with her words just as much as with her abstract sounds.

Dead can dance gives a sense of fulfillment to my life
Amazing Old Soul connected to Source
Very intelecctually stimulating and the music is spiritually uplifting. my soul dances to lisa gerrard's music.
Her work ..is soul work...
I hear her voice surround my spirit~
She gives me goosebumps.
I love you voice, your biographic story, your music all the time since everytime lisa !
Like a goddess from the stars.
the beauty of creation speaks through you
So high, respect!
no need to call on god to connect to their incredible music... you have to be numb not to the the goose bumps anyway!
She has a very interesting haunting contralto vocal range.
J'aime beaucoup ce qu'elle chante une vraie chanteuse musique spirituelle, min super

I’m so jealous of the audience who had the honor of listening to Sanvean live.
I haven't heard of Brendan Perry, so thank you for pointing us in the direction of more beautiful music.
I didn't know and I'm glad I checked my account before going to sleep. Thanks a lot. I appreciate it!
As can all of our voices !
on album Spiritchaser
thank you
Yes!!!💗💥💥
adorable woman
4:37 I like the way the DCD album cover is imposed over her face
@gardenofarcane Yes she does!
@TheMissWildShow She updated her Facebook page eight days ago. She's still with us.
@TheMissWildShow I am quite sure she is still with us. She last updated her Facebook page February 11th.
hi, it's "ariadne" on the "into the labyrinth"-album :-)
Where does the song that starts at around 2:00 come from? Can anyone help me out? Thanks.
Maybe... So what. Whether she was or was not she is a beautiful human
- like you.

@Flaminio90 Dead Can Dance's Ariadne
What is the song played at 1:45 to 3:00? It sounds amazing!

@gardenofarcane
She didn't seem like one last night.
well.....
@nippysweetie3 Gibberish to a mundane mind unwilling to see beyond narrow perceptions.
