In the Wake of Adversity

Dead Can Dance (sometimes referred to as DCD) is a world fusion music band that was formed in Melbourne, Australia, in August 1981, by Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry. The band relocated to London in May 1982 and disbanded in 1998. They reunited in 2005 for a world tour, and again in 2011-2012 for a new album (Anastasis) and world tour. Their 1996 album Spiritchaser reached No. 1 on the Billboard Top World Music Albums Chart. Australian music historian Ian McFarlane described Dead Can Dance as having an ambient style of world music that "constructed soundscapes of mesmerising grandeur and solemn beauty; African polyrhythms, Gaelic folk, Gregorian chant, Middle Eastern mantras, and art-rock." more »

Hey Patrice don't cry they've no reason to harm you at all
They don't realize that the angels surround you with light
They don't understand their narrow ways defeat them where they stand
They don't realize you hide your sadness beneath a painted smile

Ignorance, that blind old fool who steers a wayward path
Has set the course on which we sail into a night of uncertainty
Following the stars that make their way across the sky
Valuing the love that lends grace to our hearts
We sail
