Sadeness (Part One) by Enigma

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfRAiTtOVEY


I always thought that Sadeness was a spelling mistake but obviously not!


The title is a combination of the words "Sade" and "sadness." "Sade" refers to Marquis de Sade, a French novelist whose sexual activities gave us the word "sadism." He believed sex had to be painful in order to be pleasurable.
The background vocals are a Gregorian chant, which is a kind of singing popular in a lot of church music. The lyrics are in Latin, which are how many of the chants were sung in church.
The Gregorian chant on this song came from a recording of The Kapelle Antiqua Choir, which is based in Munich. When this became a hit, the choir sued Enigma, who did not ask permission but did distort the sample. They settled the case.

Good Morning Everyone :-) :-) <3

Another very cold but sunny day here in South West Wales.

Thankyou Liz for your background information on your song choice! Very educational :-)

oooh I do love that dog! :-D :-D :-D

To show my unstinting support to the Wales Rugby Team ;-) :-D I was lookning for an F Welsh song! and came across this!

I've actually cheated a bit, cos an F in Welsh sounds like a V!
It's a double F (ff) that is actually the same as an English F.


and as Wales is playing home in Cardiff, we must have this G Song too!

Good Morning Everyone :-) :-) <3

Very bright and sunny here in South West Wales, but it is freezing cold!


Well WALES did not prevail :-(

Nor the SCOTS:-( ....although they played fantastic! :-) and it was the best, most exciting game of the three!

But the IRISH were triumphant :-D

Congratulations England! :-( :-D


Hiya Prickles :-D<3
That was a fabulous song! :-)

I was very confused and bemused for a while :-S :-S :-S as to what on earth I had done!
I was looking at ENIGMA and thought I was looking for an F Song!. A Welsh T song may have been easier to find, but then it would not have led to the G!

However the Green Green Grass Of Home did not work it's magic, sadly :-( :-( :-D

Well done to Wales for their win over Scotland. Must say, the ref made a few dubious decisions not least at the end of the game!! But it was an exciting game so congratulations.

Hi Liz :-)
Your Scot's Boys did really well! Yes the ref did make the wrong decision. Play should have carried on, as was discussed on "Scrum V" later.

Oh Jemima , there you are... Thought you'd got lost.
