Rarely do I experience a moment when I'm completely blown away by someone's talent, when I'm left with my jaw hanging open in amazement. The kind of moment when I wonder why some people don't believe in God, since clearly there is a kind of talent that is sparingly doled out to a fortunate few that just can't be human. Nobody is that talented themselves. It's superior God-given talent that I'm talking about here.
With a build-up like that you're probably going to be disappointed to hear that's it's "just" a song. Off the Gladiator soundtrack, no less. (Never seen the movie and don't plan to but the soundtrack must be amazing.)
What blew me away is the song called "Now We Are Free" by Lisa Gerrard. She's not even singing in a real language. It's a language she made up as a child and it's how she "talks to God."
She is so talented that she's truly above the rest of us. We're all illiterate, belching, nose-picking apes in comparison. I'm not even going to bother to further try putting it into words.
