Everyone remembers.
Wow! First time front page! Yes I still like Enigma and Gregorian chants. Send pics of doggos or boobs, whichever suits you! And to remark for the times we're in ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE!
ozjuggler
Look I know people are getting really down about 2020, but is it bad enough to justify getting all misty eyed about Gregorian chants?
asampson271
Can't place it in my mind, the tip of my tongue, like an... Enigma.

Da fuck you mean by "Sadly, yes"? Those were golden times. -- Here's the 1st ERA album (incl. "Ameno"): https://youtu.be/rej9G3mwBc4

I still love Gregorian Chants. Wonderfully relaxing

I was just listening to Enigma the other day because my boyfriend had no idea what I was talking about.

Ameno!

Were we unknowingly cursing our future selves? Is that why 2020 happened?

Enigma. I still listen to them.

Yeah, but do you remember the cover cd's? All your favourite disco hits, in gregorian chant! The music ind were throwing red flags even then
GodLikeButHumble
C'mon, how is a bunch of monks singing "losing my religion" not hilariously awesome?
Retardis310
They are still making these albums today.
HomelingRazor
Was that around the same time we were into swing jazz and then immediately into Alanis Morrissette?
Saturniidae
No, it was right before we really got into "Gyspy guitar" and we thought it wasn't racist at all.
friendsofsandwiches
I think swing jazz was late 90s, and then early and mid 2k's. It dropped off, then picked up again sometime in 2004-2007
writetehcodez
It was really more 3rd wave ska that got popular because of the swing element in the music.

Nothing wrong with Enigma, I still listen to them.
BrandonHolly
Ha! Was barely alive, but I’m more of a native Taiwanese chant man *sigh* those were innocent times. Sure would like to return to them...

Mambo number 5 was good, but I will always prefer mambo number 4.

.... omg, that's an album I haven't thought of in DECADES... my first crush got me that for valentine's day.
pinchechin0
During my freshmen year in HS, 1994, my teacher let us listen to Gregorian chants while we laid down and “meditated.” Automatic nap time.
SerenePrincess013
I want to have gone to your HS. Sounds way less stressful than mine.
pinchechin0
It was an all boys Jesuit HS...so there’s that too =)
SerenePrincess013
Well, nvm. They wouldn't have taken me, bc I lack the necessary equipment.

Halo theme for life
deathemokid5
Yeah the halo theme is the only gregorian chant i have ever heard people listening too and that wasnt the 90's. Must be an american thing.
mrmeeseekslookatmee
I thought it was European thing. I came up in the 90’s and this trend certainly wasn’t a part of that decade in my part of the US.

I'm taking a shot in the dark asking this. There was an old song that sounds similar to this but talked about a story of the princess 1/2

And the frog. I use to listen to it a TON when I was about 4 or 5 so it had yo have been around 1995-6. 2/2

Era - ameno..that shit is good
InTheDistanceAPlaintiveEnglishHorn
Is that what he meant? Because Era is not Gregorian chant.

OMFG, I'm listening to Enigma right now. Screen behind the mirror.

One of the first CDs that I bought. You know. Those shiny circular things boomers hang from their rear view mirrors.

I was driving the better half crazy with tubular bells and enya the other day.

I love Mike Oldfield man. Songs of distant earth is one of my fave albums. Tubular bells though is by far the most amazing.

Era - Ameno

Welp, YouTube just recommended me a 1-hour extended version - Not quite a year long, but... https://youtu.be/nbMgWm6C0GQ

https://youtu.be/82Ymjw9tgvk heres my jam
IMayOrMayNotHaveTroubleFindingAndOrChoosingAUsername
I approve. You'll probably like "Amethystium", which often has similar mood/chord progressions. Sample: https://youtu.be/U9jAIXJW_IA?t=834
IMayOrMayNotHaveTroubleFindingAndOrChoosingAUsername
In the long video, skip to 20:00 "Autumn Interlude". It's not exactly 'Gregorian', but it's pretty great IMO. I assume you know "Era"-Ameno?
IMayOrMayNotHaveTroubleFindingAndOrChoosingAUsername
Here's a specific track I recommend checking out: https://youtu.be/GJo5u-qzkGs
Sumtinstink
It made my gf at the time horny. So we banged
delilahviolet
It makes me horny too

The beat makes the blood flow to the neither regions.
