STRANGE GARDEN It wouldn't stop my heart / to tell you how I feel. This wouldn't take me more / than a second / To show you your own face. It wouldn't take me much / to let you see the earth / The way you left it dying. I guess this is your fear. Don't leave it dying / don't leave it dying.

STRANGE GARDEN It wouldn't stop my heart / to tell you how I feel. This wouldn't take me more / than a second / To show you your own face. It wouldn't take me much / to let you see the earth / The way you left it dying. I guess this is your fear. Don't leave it dying / don't leave it dying.
5.
BREATHING I was in danger / Could no longer breath / In your broken violin. It's time I give it back to you... It's your pain.
6.
IN SILENCE No name... no name... / In silence / no name / no name... / In silence, can't stay / can't stay inside / can't stay inside, Can't stay inside / in silence.
7.
WORDS ARE GONE I'm falling apart / Why ? From now and forever / I'm falling apart. I heard your name, right before I forget / I heard your name, from now and forever / I'm falling in love / and I'm falling apart/ From now and forever / I'm falling in love / (We fall in love) I'm falling apart / I'm falling in love. No name. Do we have any time to loose? / Nothing left to spare, / Silence when words are gone, / When your voice is broken, only your heart / - because it can bleed again and again - / (it's like a dream in every way) This is why I will keep staying in love / keep staying / Stay (in love) / stay (in love)
8.
FACE TO FACE What do you think will happen at the moment of death? (I didn’t change the world) We don’t know anything about it, do we? If I can fly / it’s time I try / My wings are cold / please I need more time / To stay in love / my heart, don’t fail me! / Everything change / it’s now the face to face / No name / No name / It is time to leave /
9.
A MIRROR OF SILENCE ...I seek no one else / Silence keeps singing / ...No one else / ...in silence.
10.
CAN'T STAY INSIDE Can’t … stay Can’t … (no name) … stay (no name) Can’t stay ... (ad lib.) Can’t stay inside / Can’t stay inside (ad lib.) ...In your broken violin.
11.
SHOUT AND WHISPER / MANY MILLION LIVES How can you shout and whisper at the same time?! ... It takes many million lives, (4 x) / of being ripped apart / And when there is nothing left to see... / No name / only loving you / only loving you / ...only loving you now.
12.
A DIAMOND OF COURAGE Never fear no more / never fear no more / Never fear / No!

about

This opus is a cinematic chamber music score for 16 strings, 2 pianos, percussions and a rock singer (Ewan).
Introspective yet ambitious, the work is structured in 3 PARTS, for a total of 21 so called "shards", a prologue and a final statement or epilogue.

People's first comments:
«An amazing piece of music - breathtakingly beautiful. It takes you on a journey through poignant tenderness to heart-rending rapture. A rich banquet for the heart and ears. » - Dolma G.
«Listened to it tonight, immediate reaction: goosebumps. » - Sam D.
«Endearing & mysterious work of art... You are a soul healer!» - Claudia S.

When you buy the ENTIRE ALBUM, you have access to the 3 main files (part I, II & III which is the entirety of the album) & also to 9 singles, mostly songs extracted from these 3 movements.
