    Extraordinary vocals and musicianship ,one would think Nicki was Indian without seeing her, the whole piece was like a stream of sparkling cooling water tumbling over the neurons of my brain.....so refreshing.

      She does have a bit of an accent, musically, but she is nearly the real deal. The lack of the nasality is the give-away. :)

    Aliens stop regularly at the edge of our solar system to listen to this. They then abandon their plans to punish humans as their tears of ecstasy remind them just what magnificence the human species is sometimes capable of.
    This is now a mandatory play at every galactic council meeting. Due to being so sublime this music is now in the galactic top 10 having out competed approx 100 million other entries.

    It just struck me, I love the sound of Indian classical vocals and appreciate its rhythmic beauty. But I never gotten around to fully appreciating it until I listened to this magnificent piece. It's on repeat and it can go on forever. Love it. It's soothing, calm, gentle, divine. Now I understand how glorious Indian classical music is thanks to the marriage between the East and West. Truly, music unites us. Love from Malaysia.
