What language is this?

[Heretic_Cata]

SEE POST 69


Hi

I had a song on my computer for some time now and i have no clue what it is or who sings it. There is no way i can google the few lyrics it has, i don't even know what language it is. So i have uploaded a 13seconds portion of that song.

Here it is. (250kb aprox)

I really don't think you can actually id the song - instead:
Could someone please write me the lyrics so i can google them ?

Cheers

EDIT: OMG - It's in GREEK

Sounds like Czech or Polish to me... though it might be Serbia too. Actually, I can't be sure, but it really sounds like Czech or Polish to me.

No guesses ?

Oh well, it looks like i'll have to find some people to PM from those aproximate countries. It's worth a try. Thanks.
I'll start with Croatia & Serbia and work my way from there.

well I can say it sure ain't from Jugoslavia!

Sorry dude!

 

[Algeroth]

Definetly not CzechorSlovak.

I don't think it's a Slavic language. Too bad there are only few words in that sample.

Thanx for trying guys - the list of potential languages should narrow down a bit with less slavic languages.

I don't think it's a Slavic language. Too bad there are only few words in that sample.

Unfortunately those are the only lyrics in the song. The song is mostly instrumental, it's a house(???) song with a lot of pan flute sounds.

But is it just me or is she saying something with "aqua" in those lyrics ? If so then i should probably try with romance languages now ... but the other words don't seem latin at all.

At first I thought I heard "aqua" too, then I was almost sure it's something Slavic. After listening it again, doesn't seem Slavic to me any more, now it seems more like Indian to me.

I heard a letter "Zh"(&#381 in there, those letters have Indy people and Portuguese (that I know of?). It ain't from Balkans either! unless its Albanian???

 

[Fëanor]

The first words sound somewhat Finnish or maybe Swedish/Norwegian, but i dont speak any of those so i could be totally wrong, it am pretty sure is Neither Dutch or Italian.

 

[Fëanor]

by the way, where did you get the song from, what was the original name of the file etc. those things might help.

 

[Partizanac]

Fëanor is wright... whats the name of the song?

 

[LordRahl]

Sounds French - very similar to pieces by "Enigma", could be one of theirs.

 

[Mirc]

I'm fairly sure it's not French.

Indy ? As in, from India ?

So, does anyone know any Portuguese users ?

Actually it doesn't help. I got this song 7 years ago from a friend who didn't have a computer. IIRC he recorded it from another CD with selections. The recording is of very low quality - it overlaps another song at one point and you can hear screeches every now and then.
The song's original name is "Juno Reactor - Shark".
The song's style does match Juno Reactor's multi-cultural songs, but it is clearly not Shark from "The Bible of Dreams" album. That song has nothing in common with my song here.
I think i can get Juno Reactor's whole discography but i don't think i'll find anything helpfull since i already had 2 bestoff albums of his.

No, i've listened to almost all Enigma songs - it's not theirs, even tho it is their style.

I suggest two things. First - make the file easier to download (box.net for example), so people don't have to jump through hoops to get it - I bet you a lot of people who saw this thread didn't have the patience to search for it.

Second thing - rather than asking for identifying the song, start a thread titled "What Language is This". You'll get more responses that way. Once somebody identifies the language, you'll be able to get a translation, and then hopefully the song itself via lyrics.

Thank you. I reported myself (i love doing that ) to change the title.

I did not know where to upload my file that's why i chose the one i did. Your's is MUCH better thank you.

For those who said portuguese, AFAIK it is not that I may still be learning it but, I am fairly sure.

I wouldn't rule out finnish, allthou I am no expert since my knowledge of it is from just a few finnish ska bands I listin to.

 

[Partizanac]

Yes I thought Indy as India...

I'm thinking its:

1. Indian
2. Albanian
3. Israel
4. Finland
