Cover art for Tides lyrics by Nitin Sawhney

the song itself is an instrumental.. and VERY BEAUTIFUL.

the spoken intro.. well.. listening to it kinda scares and confuses me, but when I look at the words on HERE, it makes me think of World War II.. or the period just after then, because, yes, they did do LOTS of nuclear bomb testing in the 40's and 50's, but not just France either.

all in all, the song is beautiful and relaxing and haunting.
