  Well, although I like the "`music'" to NIN's song "Closer", I find the
lyrics are inappropriate for the audience it is reaching.  *SIGH*

  Also, my wife and I (and many others whom we know) enjoy the "`music'"
of ENIGMA, even if we don't have a real clue as to the lyrical content.
I hear some biblical phrases in it, but it is the (?what type?) ``chants''
that I like mixed in with that wonderful music.  It truly is meditative
for me, personally.  When I first spent the night over at my (now) wife's
house, we were sprawled out on the living room floor, I had set her up
with my personal CD walkman with ENIGMA's first CD playing through the
headphones which entered through her ears, and flowed through her like
water and helped her relax while I gave her a wonderful back massage.
She had woken up a while later (I had the player on REPEAT) just when
I stopped massaging as I had to lay my head down, too and catch some
Zzzzz's.  She didn't know what to make of the man who introduced her
to ENIGMA in such a way, but she knew right then and there, *I* was
someone she was sincerely interested in seeing more and more of.   ;-)

  Please send me any ENIGMA lyrics you may have (and your SOURCE!)
I'll post the compilation with due credits.
