 Второй альбом этих кудесников из Бельгии продолжает стиль, выбранный на "Taste of Sorrow" - всё тот же печальный, но светлый мелодичный дарквейв с прекрасным вокалом Изабеллы.
Правда, в музыке произошли некоторые изменения, она стала более разнообразной и в пределах альбома, и в пределах песни, причем практически все песенки надолго застревают в голове, так что этого альбома может "хватить" не на один год - не надоест.
Стилистика же здесь тоже более разнообразна, хотя, в общем, печальней, чем на предыдущем опусе.
Из хитовых песен можно перечислить почти весь альбом, но воздержусь и отмечу только несколько.
"Noamina" - со вступлением живой скрипки и прекрасным печально-тревожным голосом Изабеллы. Как будто пришедшая с "Taste of Sorrow", готическая "Hazy Wish". Построенная почти только на одном вокале "Reason". Еще одна тревожно-скрипичная "Nightfall". Неясно как попавшая сюда двадцатисекундная веселая "народная" интерлюдия "Magkas" и заключительная акустическая "Idyll", в соответствии с названием погружающая слушателя в идиллическое состояние.
Еще один отличный альбом от отличной группы, почему-то известной очень малому числу меломанов (по крайней мере, у нас). |

i hear noamina
i seek noamina
where is noamina ?
where is noamina ?
i seek noamina
where is noamina ?
where is noami ?
i need noami
where is noamina ?
i seek noamina
i need noamina
hide and seek is our game with my noamina
when a cloud of powder cracks again...
where is noamina ?
i need noamina
i miss noamina
where is noami ?
i miss noami
03. Hazy Wish
he lived where the sun shines and
where the landscape's so arid
nothing moves here
nothing attracts me
how can i live in this boring city ?
nothing here can give me a smile
nothing here can can give me joy
nothing moves here
nothing attracts me
i can't stay in this dead city...
nothing to see here
i need some other faces,so
nothing to build up here, no
i can't stay here alone, no
nothing to go here, no
i need another place where...
he left his native country
trying to find another way
'cause nothing pleased me
nothing helped me
needing to breathe another air
wishing to hear other sounds
wishing to meet other faces
another life is calling him, now
trying to find the way traced by good winds
04. Into The Flames
anne has grown up
in a kind world
anne was so sorry
when she met people
dying slowly
she learned curing
like her mother did
whith the gift of mother nature
this could lead you into the flames
she is not a doll
lead you into the flames
she is not a doll
anne has a story
she lived where
tears were running down
'cause she could feel
all the illness
through her eyes
of caring goddess
this could lead you into the flames
she is not a doll
lead you into the flames
she is not a doll
anne was so sweet
when tears were running down
anne has a story
that terrifies me
she wasn't guilty
but they didn't wanna
hear the defence
no they couldn't
hear what she said
no they couldn't
she is not a doll
lead her into the flames
she is not a doll
05. Nightfall
i'm so tired
and i don't wanne go to sleep
'cause i can't stay where
they want to leave me
i'm scared of the nightfall
i'm scared of the night
don't wanna get scared again
i don't wanna get scared again
night is falling down
darkness is coming through me
i can't close my eyes
tears running through me
i'm scared now
why do they leave me here again ?
i can't stay here alone again
06. Reason
i am always here when you
can't find or choose your way
go quietly i try to guide you
without you realising it
here i try to save you
even if i often fight you
here i try to guide you
without changing your main way
here i try to tell you
all the dangers you can't see
here i try to help you
when i see you so confused
the right side of reason
tries to guide you on your way
the right side of reason
tries to guide you through the days
when i see you so confused
when i feel you so despaired
so quietly i guide you
trying to find a better way
07. The Last Four Days
i wanna know what's wrong
but i don't know what she's done
if i knew where she could be
i could try to stop her tears
and i'm feeling so sad now
i couldn't do anything
i didn't know what she thought
she couldn't tell me anything
and i'm always thinking about these four days
the last four days i saw you down
and i'm always thinking about these four days
the last four days i saw you cry
i wonder where she is now
how is she still feeling ? down.
i'd like to hear her voice
now is she crying more ?
i want to know where you are
maybe you are not so far away
i want to help you now
to try to give you a smile...
08. Thoughts
she is walking in the streets
she needs to blow her head
hiding her crying eyes
hiding her crying head
i'm really sick of what i hear, of what i see
is my life always going like this ?
tears falling from the sky
winds blowing my head
and i really wonder why
my thoughts are going like this
nobody knows what i feel when i cry...
she's still walking in the streets
to breathe the wind blowing
drying the last tears
hoping she'll never cry again
09. The Soul
no more dreams in this place
only birds are flying now
no more tears and no more joy
weeds and rocks are lying
everywhere on this ground
how could i forget tears ?
how could i forget joy ?
they gave me life here
and i stay here to pay hommage
why does everything seem dead ?
how is the soul now ?
why does it stay there ?
'cause no more tears and no more joy
out of feelings - no more beings
no more trees in this place
only spiders running on the ground
no more leaves and no more flowers
nothing's growing here anymore on this ground
11. Echo
i was falling into an empty space
where i could see everything
my limbs couldn't move anymore
i wanted to know where was my echo
where's my echo ?
during the fall i tried to tell you
but my lips couldn't move anymore
i was still hearing everything
i wanted to know where was my echo
i was calling everywhere
but nobody came to me
i was calling everywhere
but nobody could hear me
i was calling
you couldn't hear me
i was falling
you couldn't see me
