Who is listening Summer 2024?

Few people know who was behind the "band" Enigma. It was not a band really but rather the personal project of Romanian-Austrian musician and producer Michael Cretu. Cretu was the husband of German-French singer Sandra, formerly a singer of disco ensemble Arabesque, whose personal album he had written and produced in 1985 with hits such as "Maria Magdalena" (one of the biggest hits of the 1980s). Cretu was a classically trained pianist and composer but he loved pop music since a young age and hence he worked as a session musician, band member and producer in many different projects in Germany and UK including having co-produced Mike Oldfield's 1987 album "Islands". At the same time he was writing and producing his wife Sandra's 3rd personal album "Into a Secret Land" that would be issued the next year, which was compositionally less pop, more complex, and interestingly had included as an intro a brief sample of Gregorian chants. Oldfield greatly appreciated Cretu's mastery and talent and encouraged him to concentrate on writing and producing music of his own. Cretu heeded the advise and since 1988 started working on his own project which he called Enigma. As he said, he wanted to make music that he likes to listen himself, with a touch of magic and mysticism. Once he was about to release the album he told Sandra "Either this will become a huge hit or a complete flop", so he was not at all surprised when it indeed became a huge hit. Back in 1990, it was clear since the first moment that Enigma was that sort of music that would remain timeless. Enigma was liked by all, not just pop and electro fans but by hard rockers and heavy metal fans alike and influenced greatly a large range of genres. And yet Michael Cretu never placed himself forward, he was a very private man. You can mostly see him in Sandra's video clips such as playing the bass and singing in Sandra's 1985 "Maria Magdalena". You wouldn't believe that this stereotypically 1980s pop-looking guy would be behind Enigma!

If you remember this song you are not old you are high quality vintage.

My late husband and I listened to Enigma when he was alive. When I hear it now, makes me cry.....I will always remember my love I had for you... RIP Darrel Dixon 3.25.1965-3.15.2018 32 years together I Miss You.. I Love You, Cindy

I am from 2056. We stil listen to this song.

Mom played this over and over when I was 9 years old. It was the most beautiful sound I’d ever heard and I would ask her to play it again every time we were on the road. She passed away last year while I was living in Thailand and when I came back to pack her things and have her car detailed, this randomly came on through her CD player while I was in reminiscence of her. She was such a beautiful woman. Rest In Peace momma. Will see you again one day...

This is not song . This is timeless masterpiece .

Whenever I listen to this song, I travel through time. I can see my different adventures and trials from my past life.

If your listening to this you are truly blessed throughout all year..

My father used to listen to this when he used to clean in saturday mornings. I lost him to cancer five years ago and each time I listen to this I connect with him and teleport back in time.

I believe that somewhere in the world there are still people who feel the same emotions that I feel when listening to this timeless masterpiece.

Мне сейчас 37 и я снова слушаю эту музыку ❤ июнь 2024
