ɴᴀᴛᴀѕᴄʜᴀ ᴋɴ☯ᴘꜰ Simply epic. This song hugs you, holds you close and lifts you up. Thank you Michael - thank you ᴛʜᴇ ʙᴇᴀᴜᴛʏ ᴏꜰ ɢᴇᴍɪɴᴀ!

Negative White While the original version is an atmospheric acoustic wave pearl, the newly released Ensemble Version focuses on Sele's evocative voice, supported by a present piano and soft strings, accentuated by rare drum beats. It's darker but more profound, and you must listen behind the voice to discover the classical nuances in the background.

lyrics

RIVER
(Michael Sele)

I see the people going down
The wind is blowing in the leaves
It’s coming to seek us
Far down the river

And I see the shadows falling down
Down on lawns and down on me
And the ships sound their sirens
Far down the river

Far down the river
Far down the river

And when the sun bursts through the sky
With all the colours pouring down
We will not fear the fireworks
Beyond the rainbow
Beyond the rainbow

I see a white boat coming
Oh Lord
We’re waiting in this port
We’re leaving on this night
Under joyful stars
And the sailors are dancing
All night long

I see a white boat coming
Oh Lord
This time we chase the moon
This time it is our guide
From sky to sky
And the stars are dancing
All night long

I see the people walking by
The wind is whispering in the trees
It is with us forever
Far down the river

Far down the river
Far down the river
And may the whole world end tonight
You dive a last time in my arms
We’re the lovers in the fireworks
Beyond the rainbow
Beyond the rainbow

I see a white boat coming
Oh Lord
We’re waiting in this port
We’re leaving on this night
Under joyful stars
And the sailors are dancing
All night long

I see a white boat coming
Oh Lord
This time we chase the moon
This time it is our guide
From sky to sky
And the stars are dancing
All night long

And the stars are dancing
And the stars are dancing
And the stars are dancing

Tonight
