The video shows this by presenting an old man at the end of his life and then going back to childhood, thus connecting the beginning and the end. we stop running and start seeing life with new wise and innocent eyes, so getting old is the way to return to innocence. then, as we age and come to the old age, we are getting back to that start- we are getting back to that purity and innocence. we start to grow up and somewhere along the way we turn cold in a way and we loose that purity. This message is the simple fact that we start off innocent and pure.

Comment by Artíoms Pirožs ₪ DJĬorrect way to cry to gød Comment by zackesterd His last work was to be the solo-outing Across the Yellow Earth in 2001, sadly just as Difang was gaining much-deserved international acclaim, he passed away (blood poisoning due to a centipede bite) in March 2002 at the age of 82. Difang was a prominent producer and supporter of Taiwanese aboriginal artists. With the layered and more reverential sound of Circle of Life we see Lacksman mature as a world music producer, in comparison to his previous outings such as Pangea. As an obvious reference to the court-case with Enigma, Lacksman made his own, gentler modernisation of Elder's Drinking Song as well as including the original version of the chant unaccompanied on the CD. However the more upbeat tracks like Love Song (with Deep Forest style lead synth-flute) and Working Song (with its dark string theme) are the real highlights of the album. Slower, more laid-back beats support songs like Visiting Song and the contemplative Fully Laden with Riches with its tinkling piano instrumentation and Difang's characteristic yodelling calls. Released by Rock Records Japan in 1998 Circle of Life is a mesmerising combination of Lacksman's usual electronic drumloops, ambient synths and sounds carefully constructed so as not to interfere with Difang's heart-felt singing based on traditional Taiwanese songs of love, work and celebration.

The controversy around the case propelled Difang into the international spotlight, and Dan Lacksman (whose most famous project had been the first Deep Forest album) approached him to produce an album together.

'Sadness' song by Enigma Sadeness Yes, as in the Marquis de Sade. Return to Innocence is a 1994 song created by the musical group Enigma. However Cretu had not obtained Difang's permission prior to using the chant which prompted a court-case in 1996 that saw the two settle out of court three years later with Difang being compensated. A sample of his plaintive Elder's Drinking Song chant was used by Michael Cretu as the backbone for Enigma's Return to Innocence which went on to become one of Enigma's biggest selling singles. According to the Theorytab database, it is the 8th most popular key among Major keys and the 13rd. Many may not be familiar with his name, but millions across the globe will recognise this Taiwanese traditional singer's voice. Return To Innocence is written in the key of B Major.
