Afro Celt Sound System : Volume 1 Sound magic 1996

The traditional music of Western Africa and Ireland is fused into a seamless blend by Afro Celt Sound System.

The Afro Celt Sound System is a musical group that fuses modern electronic dance rhythms (trip-hop, techno, etc.) with traditional Irish (Celtic) and West African music. It was formed by Grammy-nominated producer-guitarist Simon Emmerson, and is considered to be something of a world music supergroup, often featuring a wide range of guest artists on their albums.
Their albums have been released through Peter Gabriel's Real World Records, and they have been cited as the second best-selling band on the label, exceeded in sales only by Gabriel himself. Their striking live performances have often been the highlights of the WOMAD concert festivals. They signed a contract with Real World for five albums, of which the 2005 release Anatomic was the last.
After a number of festival dates in 2007, the band went on hiatus. In 2010, they regrouped to play a number of shows (including a return to WOMAD ) and compiled a retrospective titled Capture.

WHEN YOU'RE FALLING  LYRICS

Every day, you crawl into the night
a fallen angel, with your wings set alight
when you hit the ground, everything turns to blue
I can't get through the smoke, that's surrounding you

'cause when you're falling
I can't tell which way is down
and when you're screaming
somehow I don't hear a sound
and when you're seeing things
then your feet dont touch the ground
'cause when you're falling
I can't tell which way is down

I can see through the clouds, I can walk right through the walls
Hang me off the ceiling, but I can't take the fall
should I cross the river, when I may get swept away
out there on the water, you can still see me wave

'cause when you're falling
I can't tell which way is down
when you're falling
I can't tell which way is down

I can see all those things
My feet don't touch the ground..

'cause when you're falling
I can't tell which way is down
and when you're screaming
somehow I don't hear a sound
and when you're seeing things
then your feet don't touch the ground
'cause when you're falling
I can't tell which way is down

and when you're screaming
somehow I don't hear a sound
