Vocalist Jon Anderson and master synthesist/composer Vangelis draw upon their legendary individual histories and more than two decades of classic collaborations to create this very spiritual and musical synergy, which combines elements of rock, classical, symphonic, jazz, soul, electronic new age, and worldbeat. Best known, respectively, as the lead singer of Yes and the Oscar-winning composer of "Chariots of Fire," the duo has released several extraordinary tandem recordings over the years, beginning with the 1976 album Olias of Sunhillow. This is the sixth of the series, and was originally released in 1991, though until Omtown's release, it was only available as an import. Page of Life offers clever social commentary and messages for world harmony in musical landscapes that allow amazing showcases for both Anderson's angelic vocals and Vangelis' multifaceted synth textures. Ballads like the hypnotic "Garden of Senses," the whimsical and elegant "Is It Love," and sweeping piano/vocal duet "Anyone Can Light a Candle" find Anderson at his most passionate and romantic. The one previously unreleased track is "Change We Must," a march-like number that functions as a statement of purpose.

Acht Jahre sind vergangen seit dem letzten Album von Yes-Sänger Jon An- derson und Vangelis, dem griechischen Synthesizer-Spezialisten. "Page Of Life" knüpft dennoch fast lückenlos da an, wo die beiden 1983 aufhörten. Über die besinnlichen Elektronik-Klangbilder legt Jon Anderson seinen samtweichen Tenor und stellt mal wieder die Frage nach dem Sinn des Le- bens. Nur manchmal wird es vertrackter. Dann drängen sich natürlich Ver- gleiche mit Yes auf, die sich auf diesem Gebiet aber sicherer bewegen als Jon & Vangelis. Vollkommen überflüssig ist die "Jazzy Boy", mit der Vangelis wohl beweisen wollte, wie übel Jazz aus dem Computer klingt. ** Interpret.: 03-07

WISDOM CHAIN

Did we know the severace thruout reality
We see how wonderful releasing it is.
Do we cross the Great Divide that spellbinds us
To one degree, this further dimension it is.

Locked in our memory.
Locked in the wisdom chain.
Locked in our memories.
Locked in the wisdom chain.

Do we chase within without, this glowing world,
Come on come out, this future tradition it is.
Can we learn to memorize this mesmerizing music,
Planetary transition it is.

locked in our memory (locked in our memory)
locked in this wisdom chain (locked in the wisdom chain)
locked in our memories (locked in our memories)

For really all purpose, Love ! Love !

PAGE OF LIFE

Born from the sky,
We are born to this land.
From a dream, so far away,
I was sent to your heart.
With the stars shining,
We are asked to live as one love.
Never forget, this is.

Trust me to be singlet,   (Trust me to be secret)
We will sing on the days.
When each voice will be a witness,
Each will sing every way.
There'll be no more empty promises.
We are turning a special page of life.
I will be the one to hold you
In this everlasting dance of love.

Hold me, now forever.
I can remember when
You and I came through the winter.
Now it's summer again.
Be mine, be my love, be my guide, together
We'll be as one, you can count on my life.

Born from the sky.

ahhhhhh.....

Words of discouragement disappear
In your clear eyes.
Never change, never doubt
What you mean to my life.


MONEY

Have you seen the magazine
Where all the rich, the kings and queens,
Presidents of politics
And emperors of oh so clean.

Oh so clean.....oh so clean
Oh so clean.....oh so clean

Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.

The system loves the richest boy,
The richest sheiks of Arabie.
The system loves the richest girl.
A modern mind is climbing free.
The walls are clean, the body dry,
no memory can confuse her why
Because if I'm not there this way,
our crazyness is here to stay

Money, money, money, money, money - MONEY!
Money, money, money, money, money - MONEY!

Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money

Have you seen the shouts us down,
we overroll Manhattan town, we
Hold the uncle by the family,
fakers countin' Tokyo 'round me

Money, money, money, money, money - MONEY!

Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.

The system loves the richest boy,
The richest girl is in the world.
They'll buy her life for everything
Her food, her clothes, her car, her dream
Freedom can't invest itself,
It's all a game for someone else.
One thing sure, it's real you see
When you got conspiracy.

Money grubs,
Money greeds,
Money chops,
Money speeds,
Money breaks,
Money burns.

Wait a minute! Wait a minute!

It's only money.
It's only money.
It's only money.
It's only money.

GARDEN OF SENSES

Days of the garden.
Days in the sun.
Warm in my secret.
Lost in your eyes.

Love, sweet as water.
Love, sweet as wine.

Love, in the moonlight.
Sing with your heart. (Tell me there's a muse and you know what   )
                      (you do when you sing when you talk when you )
                      (love with your heart-strings               )
Love in the sunlight  (Hold me, hold me)
Sing with your heart  (Hold me, hold me)
With your heart
With your heart
With your heart
With your heart
With your heart


IS IT LOVE

Is it love, is it love,
Is it love that I think I'm after ?
Is the moment so expressive in my heart
To believe I could be with you ?

Treasure this, treasure this.
Is it everything you hoped it would be ?
In your soul, in a job, at the firelight,
Could be life in a heart of stone.

Is it love, is it love,
Is this love that I think I'm feeling ?
Hold me in your arms, lie by my side,
Let me be inside of you.

Let me go, let me fly, let me love you.
Let me go, let me fly, let me love you.

Somehow I must believe, you need me too,
You dream me too summer love.

Cause I will be unchained
When true love surrounds me.
I will be unchained
When true love I see in your eyes.

Yes, I will be unchained
When true love I see in your eyes.

Tell me I'm a fool, I would know how to believe it. (eyes)
All the words you say enfold me, touch me, but
Somehow there's more to being this love.
It's a game of give and take.
Call it love, (give and take)
Call it love, (give and take)
Is it love that I think I'm after ?
It's the world that inspires my every move,
A world so much to do with you.

Tell me now, I'm alive.
So alive that I need to show it.
Gather round me, come to me, the firelight. (Gather round, become to me the firelight)
Come to me, wait by my side.

I will be unchained
When true love surrounds me.
I will be unchained
When true love I see in your eyes.


ANYONE CAN LIGHT A CANDLE

Anyone could light a candle,
But not the way that you do.
Anyone could light a candle.

Just like a flower in the rain,
You are unique, the same.
Each step you take,
Each dream you realize,
Will open your heart, your life.

Anyone can light a candle,
But not the way that you do.

For if we look too close,
Pure magic we would be.
Pure magic we would see.

It's all around each one.
It's all around within.
The perfect union,
Close inside your dreams.
To watch in wonderment,
As each day begins.
They tell me
You can hear this song.

Anyone can light a candle,
But not the way that you do.

So if we look too close,
Pure magic we will be.
Pure magic we will see.


BE A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE

Be a good friend of mine.
You travel the secret sites
All over this world,
Planted here in Malibu.

He was given his wings
So in order to fly.
In a dream we see      (In a dreamy scene)
The sorcerers of the sky.

The sorcerers of the Deep.
The Orca whale, the Samurai.
He asked the question right off,
What does it mean to me ?

He was told he was a daemon of life.
His flute was his heart's companion.
To dream of whales flying in the sky
Was the key to a secret door.
He had seen the three as a sailing ship  (He had seen the three as a solar ship)
Who flew this world's discovery.
Be aware that, if you connect this dream,
You enter through the doors,
Through the doors
Of Paradise !

Be a good friend of mine.
Said he wanted to see
As a seer of his day,
He saw the chandle-light.

Who are the Kingdom come ?
Who are the UFO ?
Are we religious now ?
Or was he ever so ?

What is the crystal void ?
The sun is more than alive.
Why do we fight these wars ?
Why can't we see the light?

Who is our brother sun ?
Who is our sister moon ?
Or would you live in peace
And is it coming real soon ? (real soon, real soon, real soon)

He was told he was a daemon of life.
His flute was his heart's companion.
To dream of whales flying in the sky
Was the key to a secret door.
He had seen the three as a sailing ship
Who flew this world's discovery.
Be aware that, if you connect this dream,
You'll enter through the door,
You'll enter through the door
Of Paradise !


SHINE FOR ME

Shine for me,
I'll shine for you,
Each waking dawn,
Each day.

Let these words,
Please, let this song
Take you so
Completely.

You have the gift of love.
You have the gift of life.
Take whatever you need.

Be the light.
For once, be sure.
Be the light
you are.

You are the sound of love.
You are the sound of life.
Take whatever you need.

More will come as you reopen
All your senses changing.
Once you have seen,
Be awake to this life song.

Shine for me,
I'll shine for you,
Each waking dawn,
Each day.

You are the gift of love.
You are the gift of life.
Take whatever you need.


GENEVIEVE

Genevieve,
Listen for a while.
We are young,
Waking all the time.
Growing as we do,
See the truth we lose,
How we soon forget
This love.

Genevieve,
Tell me if you can.
Who is right,
A woman or a man ?
How we grow the same. (to see who doesn't cry) [??? (see the dancing love) ???]
Together we create. (the circles round my heart )
Sing, all the world is in (a girl for every boy)
Our eyes. (Genevive)

Genevieve. (Genevive)

Flying to the sky, (flying to the sky)
Holding me this way, (gliding through the sky)
This magic that I feel (magic that is in your eyes)
For you.

Genevieve,
The strongest love of all
Is when we're one
Whenever we're alone.
There's nothing like our love (everybody knows)
That fills this empty space. (the children of the world)
Just let me hear you say (everyday begins love)
It's true.

The way you think of love (show how to believe)
Is in my heart of love. (in this make believe)
This love for everyone, (make each day begin with love)
Genevieve. (love love love....)

Everybody knows.
For the children of the world.
Every day begins
With loving...


JOURNEY TO IXTLAN

She sends special signals to me.
Not the kind you soon forget so.
Even these words that change
my mind and my direction

Some days, speaking out a warning :
Look straight, be strong.
She says, helping me in seeing,
my waking, my dreaming.

Life.
Oooohhh...

Makes me, sometimes like the thunder :
Hear me now.
Some days, falling like the rain,
Slowly healing me,
Helping me, seeing me, seeing.

Some day, I'll remember why
A touched, made me touch the sky.
We will live always for each other,
Some day, some day soon.

We're on the journey to Ixtlan.
We're on the journey to Ixtlan.
