Tales From Topographic Oceans I

The Revealing Science Of God (Dance Of The Dawn)
Anderson/Howe/Squire/Wakeman/White



Dawn of light lying between a silence and sold sources
Chased amid fusions of wonder
In moments hardly seen forgotten
Coloured in pastures of chance dancing leaves cast spells of challenge
Amused but real in thought, we fled from the sea whole

Dawn of thought transferred through moments of daysundersearching earth
Revealing corridors of time provoking memories
Disjointed but with purpose
Craving penetrations offer links with the self instructors sharpand tender love
As we took to the air a picture of distance

Dawn of our power we amuse redescending as fast as misusedexpression
As only to teach love as to reveal passion chasing late intocorners
And we danced from the ocean

Dawn of love sent within us colours of awakening among the manywont to follow
Only tunes of a different age
As the links span our endless caresses for the freedom of lifeeverlasting

Talk to the sunlight caller
Soft summer mover distance mine

Called out a tune but I never saw the face
Heard but not replaced
I ventured to talk but I never lost my place

Cast out a spell rendered for the light of day
Lost in lights array
I ventured to see as the sound began to play

What happened to this song we once knew so well
Signed promise for moments caught within the spell
I must have waited all my life for this
Moment moment

The future poised with the splendour just begun
The light we were as one
And crowded through curtains of liquid into sun

And for a moment when our world had filled the skies
Magic turned our eyes
To feast on the treasure set for our strange device

What happened to wonders we once knew so well
Did we forget what happened, surely we can tell
We must have waited all our lives for this
Moment moment moment

Starlight movement
Reasons
Release forward
Tallest rainbow
Sun shower seasons
Life flower reasons

They move fast, they tell me
But I just can't believe that I can feel it
There's someone to tell you
Amid the challenge we look around in unison with you

Getting over overhanging trees, let them rape the forest
Thoughts would send our fusion clearly to be home
Getting over wars we do not mean, or so it seems so clearly
Sheltered with our passion clearly to be home

They move fast, they tell me
But I just can't believe they really mean to
There's someone to tell you
And I just can't believe our song will leave you

Skyline teacher
Warland seeker
Send out poison
Cast iron leader

And through the rhythm of moving slowly
Sent through the rhythm work out the story
Move over glory to sons of old fighters past

Young Christians see it from the beginning
Old people feel it, that's what they're saying
Move over glory to sons of old fighters past

They move fast, they tell me
But I just can't believe they really mean to
There's someone to tell you
A course towards a universal season

Getting over overhanging trees, let them rape the forest
They might stand and leave them clearly to be home
Getting over wars they do not mean, we charm the movementsuffers
Call out all our memories clearly to be home

We've moved fast, we need love
A part we offer is our only freedom

What happened to this song we once knew so well
Signed promise for moments caught within the spell
We must have waited all our lives for this
Moment moment

Past present movers moments we'll process the future,
But only through Him we know
Send flowered rainbows

A piece apart chased flowers of the dark and lights of songs
To follow and show all we feel for and know of
Cast round

You seekers of the truth accepting that reason will relive
And breathe and hope and chase and love
For you and you and you

Song Of The Viking I

for Lucas, back from Norway

I am a Viking of some note

Knut's my name and here I float

Out on the sea in a great big boat

and I'm the one who beats the drum in time

To stroke the oars that drive our galleons on

And while we rowed we had our song

And we had our god, and it may seem odd

But at least there was a cause

Caught a wind and we upped the sail

Lost two ships when it turned to a gale

Down went a third when she rammed on a whale

Though we despaired we could not fail

And through it all we never faltered

Late at night I lay on the decke

Wondering whye I risk my necke

Picture myselfe in a sinkinge wrecke

Ande downe I'me goinge notte knowinge whye

I just can't quite recall the reason why

It's such a drag to carry on

But there was a cause, but there was a reason

If you like I'll be your Viking

Sit you down to a Nordic meal

Give you strength that you might wield

A Viking sword and a Viking shield

And off we'll sail in mighty ships of yore

Perhaps we shouldn't let our hands get sore

We need someone to pull the oars

And to do the chores

So we need a cause, so we need a reason why

(Erik is here!)

O vídeo é de 1944.
Naquela época, fim da Segunda Guerra Mundial, eram muito comuns apresentações que se chamavam SISTER ACT. O nome é derivado do fato desses grupos serem constituidos 'teoricamente' de irmãs. Este se chama THE ROSS SISTERS, ou seja, AS IRMÃS ROSS.
Elas cantam nos primeiros 60 segundos, uma canção normal, comum, nada extraordinária. São afinadas, agradáveis, bonitas etc. Mas o que elas fazem depois...
Isto foi filmado há 65 anos atrás. Algumas das coisas que elas fazem raramente são vistas hoje (a não ser no Cirque du Soleil).




Pero, adelante, hay unas cositas que qualquiera puede hacer, if you click on the search box.
