The first time I was exposed to Loreena McKennitt was in an upscale mall at a "discovery" type store. They had lots of CDs along the wall and her one where she is standing on the cover...The Mask & The Mirror just called to me. Seriously, I was so drawn to it and at the time I had no idea who she was. I was compelled to buy the CD......and of course I was hooked from then on.......

This is Turkish, not Greek, and neither Turks or Greeks do belly dancing, which is more a Middle East Arabic tradition. Look, there is something farther than your local Walmart Superstore and the big blue pond. Maybe. Maybe not. You can patronize anyone of half a dozen Greek restaurants in Detroit's Greektown which feature belly dancing. It may be a Middle Eastern tradition, but it seems to have been adopted. |

I like the Celtic songs more than the Arabic ones... I would expect to like the Celtic ones better, but I really like the Arabic ones more. |

Idioacracy was a fantastically funny (and mind numbingly horrifying) movie. What makes it all worse is the fact that I know people like that! |

Beyond "filling the room". Asking them to turn it down is like asking a tobacco addict to smell fine food or pick up a wild animal in the bush. Cognitive impairment. I am one of those rare tobacco addicts who can smell fine food and a fart at 20 paces. Not going there with picking up wild animals but I can say one of the reason I still smoke is that if I didn't I most probably could not stand to be near any un-showered peeps, anytime, anywhere. That said, great tune !!!!!!!!!!!! |

Hypnotic. Trying to work and all I can do is try to keep from swaying back and forth.

I've been a fan of Loreena since I first saw her busking at the St Lawrence Market in Toronto 20 years or so ago

The transition to this tune from the other "set" of music behind this one . . . on this day, elevates my like of Loreena and "Gates" today. Thanks Bill |
