I can thank my husband for introducing me to Dead Can Dance the second time we ever met. He was playing the Toward the Within album in the apartment and I believe I had to cut a conversation mid-sentence to ask who we were listening to. When I borrowed the CD, I quickly became fond of [not only the entire album, but] one song in particular. Sanvean sounds like it's sung in a foreign language but there are no lyrics. There is no story here but the voice of emotion that I can only describe as life reminisced - loss, joy, freedom and grace. I can hear this song time and again and it never fails to tug at my heart like I'm listening to it for the first time.
I couldn't find a way to link the video directly so you'll have to go here.
