One interest many of us share is the music of Enigma.
This being said, I thought I would initiate an Enigma Trivia Game thread for the fun of it.
As with the other similar threads a question is asked. The member with the correct response than asks the next question and so on.
Here's the first question;
From which Enigma track and CD comes,

'Be Emotional
Be Intuitive
Be Intimate
Be Loving'
???

Love the idea of an Enigma trivia thread. You've got me stumped though, Michael!! I thought I knew everything there was to know about Enigma and had just everything ever released by Cretu, but I don't recognise those words from an Enigma song? *hangs head in shame* LOL

lol..... The answer is: None. There is no cd with a track that has these lyrics and i do not count those fake bootleg albums, only the originals.

Unless.....you are posting the translation???...was those lyrics spoken in French?

I got one....which song has the lyrics "Eternal Flame will always Burn...Feel, Understand, and Learn"...?

My apologies to each of you in phrasing my question as I did.
In understanding that members here have an extensive knowledge of the music of Enigma I wanted to pose a question that was outside the box. LOL. Or outside the CD jewel case.
I could have phrased my question something more like this;

'To which song's title am I refferring to if I said...'

However, I suspect even that would be too abstract. And result in more frustration than fun.
All this being said I will simplify my question, yet still maintain the same basic concept of my original question.
In addition, when you have the answer, reply with it and a video if possible.

Which Enigma song has the same name as a Tarot Card,
and from which CD does it come
???

p.s., the initial question gave the associated attributes of the Tarot Card.

Totally an awesome thread .... (been wanting to do this myself for a looooong time .... but it kept slipping my mind for some strange reason)

Anyhoo .... I know is it Page of Cups - Voyageur .... (Lurve that song and the album by the way ... brings back happy memories of a wintry beach!) :)

Ooh Polly just beat me to it.

Now, I have a question for y'all.

What is the only Enigma song that doesn't appear on any album?

(I am not including Carly's Song and Carly's Loneliness, which both appeared on the Sliver Soundtrack, or Enigmatic Encounter the Enigma/ATB collaboration that was on ATB's Two World's album).

This is a very rare song only available in one place and not on any Enigma album...(it's not a remix, by the way - it's an original song)

SoulChild
December 30th, 2009, 09:03 PM
Is it "Light of your Smile'?.....that is the only song I can't seem to find on any enigma cd....

BlueStar

I love this one! and thanks for confirming that it is in fact an original Enigma song. Since its not on any Enigma CD that I know of, I was beginning to question it. I've never actually done any research...I wonder if it is on one of the Cretu CD's before the Enigma project?

Anyway, here is one for all those who are up to date on translations. So, in other words, this quote is not originally in English.

"I can't sleep anymore, I desire you, I want to go to the end of my fantasies,
I know it's forbidden, Take me, I'm yours "

Oooh is it Mea Culpa?? I was no good at French in school, but I'm thinking it's that one :)

'Light of Your Smile' was released as the B-side on the 'Beyond the Invisible' CD single; if you have a look on amazon or ebay there are still copies floating around there I believe. Quite a collector's edition! I'm guessing LOYS was made during the E3 era but simply didn't make the final cut.

Mr B

Voyageur came out way before I joined the EMB to immediately know the answer ... so, I am guessing here ... was it Incognito that our dear MC was thinking of before hand?

Since the quiz has gone silent, I have a question, we'll see if anyone gets it.

Which two songs (one from E2 and one from E3) share the same beat, which is also very similar to the beat from Madonna's 'Justify My Love'?

Funny - I was thinking the same thing last night and have been trying to come up with a good question ...

Anyhoo, must think or more likely I'll have to listen to both cd's in order to find the answer to your excellent question ... oh what fun (I can listen to ENIGMA anytine) ... I love ENIGMA! :)

Okay I did a rythem count and found that "Return To Innocence" and "Beyond The Invisible" both have a count of 96 bpm.
I'll see if I can find the Madonna song mentioned on youtube.
hmmm.

Lion Spirit Walker
January 12th, 2010, 02:00 AM
Doubled checked... And my answer stands. Hehehe.

BlueStar
January 12th, 2010, 12:33 PM
It was a tough question actually! And you are reeeeally really close Michael. But, to my ears at least, it is Return to Innocence and The Child in Us that share the same beat rhythm. The beat has been re-performed in each, it has a deeper and more resonant sound in Return to Innocence and is a little more muted in Child In Us, but I believe it's the same rhythm. You guys can check now, and if I'm wrong I will submit to forty lashings of the whip! LOL. The Madonna song which features the same style beat (although a little louder and more prominent than either Enigma song) is Justify My Love.

Lion Spirit Walker
January 12th, 2010, 08:56 PM
Very cool. I heard it this time.
I had based my answer on the tempo not the rhythm.
LOL. A bit like listening without hearing. :cool.3:
