Ultimate Yanni by Yanni

Felitsa is One Man's Dream and every man's Desire--a rare and beautiful jewel that I search the world to find. So many clues have led to dead ends. Sometimes I wonder if I am just Chasing Shadows as the up-tempo electric vibes fill my ears with suspense and intrigue.

My plane flies over the African savanna. A Running Time poly-percussion beats out the pace of running wildebeests and giraffes. After many clouds and miles drift by, the dunes of the Sahara Desert fill my mind's eye as an Arabian theme fills my ears. A techno-choir fills me with courage. I jump out of the hanger. The music in my headphones pumps up the jam with racing keyboards of varied tonal colors and hues.

"You Only Live Once!" I shout, as I fall to earth. The rush to earth is my Flight of Fantasy. I am surrounded by ivory piano clouds and electric blue skies. I hear the Nightbird flurry its wings in my headphones. The orchestra crescendos as my parachute opens. Like the arpeggio notes that float on air, I do a Buttterfly Dance as I descend to your doorstep.

To The One Who Knows me better than I know myself, it is always Nice To Meet You, Felitsa. As Yanni gently strokes his piano keys, I wrap you in the orchestra of my arms and stroke your soft flowing hair of strings, and listen to the gentle reeds of your voice whispering in my ear.

The bad-boy bass guitar echoes my heart's excitement. The crying violin sheds my heart's tears. The Rain Must Fall and create Paths of Water to relieve our pain of past heartaches. As the Keys to Imagination unlock my Forbidden Dreams, you become my geisha girl as electric vibes blossom into an oriental theme.

A Looking Glass reflects the flickering fireplace flames. We Look in the Mirror, and see our Reflections of Passion. You asked me for A Word in Private--piano, strings, and two pairs of pressing lips are what followed.

A lone Olympic horn carries a torch to light the Olympic flame. We hear other horns join in as we listen to Santorini. Synthesizers and horns soar like eagles over the orchestral canyons of the Point of Origin. Two sopranos sing an Aria to mark this day that will become our Nostalgia years from now.

Ultimate Yanni--listen and create your own legend.
