Mystery, wonder, and awe
Posted by Jung Roe on 26/09/2022 at 06:31I’ve always liked songs that evoke feelings of mystery, wonder, and awe. I love that MLT have that in many of their songs like Janitor Joe, Jump Ship, Nothing Is In Vain etc… I love this cover that MLT made all their own. The mysterious desolate landscape of Lanzarote sets the perfect backdrop.
I love the new album cover artwork, that evokes mystery, wonder and awe. Absolutely brilliant!

I always find my imagination escaping high into the clouds and sky above when I hear this one. The song carries me there. Nothing is In Vain, brings much hope and brightness.

Escape the bounds of gravity holding me down, let go, feel free and wild…escape!
What fills you with mystery, wonder, and awe?

For best effect, put on head phones, turn down the lights, or find a comfortable spot under a dark starry sky.

Hi Jung,
Welcome to the Machine is also a good road trip song. Whether on a dark desolate road at night, or heavy traffic in the afternoon, I always notice a lot of syncs listening to this while driving.
What did you dream? It’s alright we told you what to dream. You dreamed of a big star. He played a mean guitar.He always ate in the Steak Bar. He loved to drive in his Jaguar. So welcome to the machine.
I can’t wait to listen to Why? on my daily commute.

I’ll bet you thought I was going to say,”On a dark desert highway.”

Hi Juergen, Sarah Brightman had some nice songs, I liked some of her music over the years, along with Enya too. I like the Queen Bohemian Rhapsody classical opera meets rock and roll style of some of Evanescence.
I really got into Enigma for a while, and still like to listen to it occasionally. The music evokes a lot of mystery and wonder.
Can light exist without darkness?

Based on the novella “War of the worlds” by H.G. Wells there is this wonderful Musical adaptation by Jeff Wayne. A fascinating interweaving of literature and music. From this the main theme “Eve of the war”. Truly mysterious, wonderful and awe-inspiring:

This song has an ethereal vibe similar to Starman and Nothing Is in Vain:

Now it gets a bit special, I hope not too special. In 2010, the brothers Giorgio and Martin Koppehele founded a multimedia music project called „Lichtmond“. Lichtmond’s music combines electronic music with ambient and rock elements that flow into each other. Poems connect individual songs, accompanied by three-dimensional computer animations and surround sound. The brothers themselves describe their music project Lichtmond as “audiovisual poetry”. Music in the tradition of „Kraftwerk“ and „Tangerine Dream“.
Intro:
Wie ein sanfter Flügelschlag schleichst du dich schamlos in mein Leben
und Du bleibst für immer wie ein Sonnenstrahl im Regen
wenn Seelen sich vereinen
vor Glück und Kummer weinen
wenn sie gemeinsam träumen
dann, dann ist es Liebe
Outro:
Hundert Liebesschwüre
tausend flammende Kerzen
Millionen roter Rosen
Millarden funkelnder Sterne
tausche ich für einen einzigen Kuß von dir
wenn die Nacht den Tag berührt
im frühen MorgenrotIntro:
Like a gentle flutter of wings you creep shamelessly into my life
and you stay forever like a sunbeam in the rain
when souls unite
crying with happiness and sorrow
when they dream together
then, then it is love
Outro:
A hundred vows of love
A thousand flaming candles
Millions of red roses
Billions of twinkling stars
I’ll trade for a single kiss from you
when night touches day
in the early dawn -
I’ve always loved this Steve Miller song. It makes me want to fly without an airplane

Hi Jurgen, that Early Dew video is awesome, it’s like a dream world, so colourful and amazing, and the music is great too, I really liked it. The instrumental with the vocals, a little like Enigma too. War of the Worlds has some really nice orchestral music, and liked the narration.
David, the Monkees did another really interesting one, and the ending was pretty interesting. I thought in the end she would say, “and the winner is…” This reminds me a little of….
Diana, Steve Miller is great, I had that album on cassette and wore it out, liked every song on that greatest hits album.

The wonder and mystery of the circle of life:
-
In music, anything is possible:
I look into the mirror
See myself, I’m over me
I need space for my desires
I have to dive into my fantasies
I know as soon as I’ll arrive
Everything is possible
‘Cause no one has to hide
Beyond the invisible
-
A beautiful passage of text, Jung:
“In music anything is possible”
when thoughts and feelings unite
become the beat of your heart
and free the yearning soul
from the cage of everyday lifeBy the way: There are people who believe that extraterrestrials have brought us language and writing. I think the more they brought us the music and then we became halfway intelligent….????

Jurgen, nice poem!
Sometimes when life is too much, music can save you. I know what that’s like.
That Coldplay music video is hilarious and fun. Reminds me of what Woody Allen said, “humans are nothing more than monkees with car keys”. What’s scary is we have some in high places with the launch codes.
