Still their best track, I can listen to this a thousand times and still not get bored. Seeing this live in 88 was just wonderfulll. Thank you dcd for bringing tihs to the world.
I can't think of a better place for Dead Can Dance to perform than Prague, with its architecture and history. Atmosphere suits such wonderfully Gothick music! Not to mention such a fine rendition of one of their best and most unforgettable pieces of music!
I remember trying hard to find a live version of Xavier for years and there was none. NONE. And then I've just casually stumbled across this miracle. Thanks for upload! I was born in Prague btw. ;D
When I was a gothy kid, and first heard Dead Can Dance, I made SEVERAL jokes that Brendan sounded like a lounge singer (think... Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, et al..) who just invaded a gothy band. I stand by that remark, but his voice is so much better than the lounge singers. But I could almost see him with a cigar in his hand and wearing a tuxedo, grinning at the audience, with a casual "whoo, I can sing!" kinda attitude. ;) Geez this guy's voice is golden. For the record, I sing things like "Heart and Soul" at work in that style, but I'll always keep trying to hit his notes and sing his stuff. Because you have to try to be the best, and this is the best you gotta beat.
"Bella Rosseana, tu deambular es una historia conocida. Cubiertas de peligro, las vidas que viviste fueron juzgadas profanas. El odio nos envuelve, inculca su herejía en nuestras mentes. Laicos nos envuelven, la clemencia emerge para liberarte. Fue el destino, aunque Xavier ha rezado para que lluevan aguas que den vida hacia las almas de los hombres para curarlos de sus hábitos. Éstos fueron los pecados del pasado de Xavier, colgados como joyas en el bosque de velos. En lo profundo del corazón donde emergen los misterios, Eva porta el estigma del pecado original. La libertad es muy dura, cuando todos estamos sujetos a leyes engranadas en el plan de la propia mano de la naturaleza, no vistas por todos aquellos que fallaron en su búsqueda del destino. Aunque Xavier ha rezado, para que lluevan aguas que den vida hacia las almas de los hombres para curarlos de sus hábitos. Y mientras la noche se hace día, ¿El sol iluminará tu camino? ¿O vendrán tus pesadillas para quedarse? El amor de Xavier yace en cadenas. Éstos fueron los pecados del pasado de Xavier, colgados como joyas en el bosque de velos."

My favorite DCD song from my favorite DCD album. Thank you so much for uploading this! 🥰
Thanks to the OP, this is incredible. I made a comment and didn't thank you, and that's nearly unforgiveable. Beautiful recording. THANK YOU.
Превосходный вокал!

"Bella Rosseana,
tu deambular es una historia conocida.
Cubiertas de peligro,
las vidas que viviste fueron juzgadas profanas.
El odio nos envuelve,

la clemencia emerge para liberarte.
Fue el destino,
aunque Xavier ha rezado
para que lluevan aguas que den vida
hacia las almas de los hombres
para curarlos de sus hábitos.
Éstos fueron los pecados del pasado de Xavier,
colgados como joyas en el bosque de velos.
En lo profundo del corazón donde emergen los misterios,
Eva porta el estigma del pecado original.
La libertad es muy dura,
cuando todos estamos sujetos a leyes
engranadas en el plan de la propia mano de la naturaleza,
no vistas por todos aquellos que fallaron

El amor de Xavier yace en cadenas.

Papito Brendan 😮
Only DCD can sound 100% album quality on a live performance.
Lisa's time seems to be over. I feel no passion in bremdan. Time goes by...
