Today is International Day of Silence. An international day to raise awareness of bullying. Sounds like a good initiative. Off course my mind started thinking about tracks about silence. One song is so great that besides the original also two brilliant covers made it to the list. Enjoy!
10. Björk – It’s Oh So Quiet
From her 2nd album Post from 1995.
9. Anethum – Silence is a rhythm too
One of my favorite tracks on the Dance wars CD (mixed by Judge Jules & John Kelly) I bought many moons ago.
8. JONAH – SSSST…. Listen
One of my favorite harddance tracks.
7. The Knife – Silent Shout
Some proper electronic music from Sweden.
6. Simon & Garfunkel – Sound of Silence
As you might have picked up in earlier blogs I’m a big fan of Simon & Garfunkel. This is one of my favourites from them.
5. Cocteau Twins – Lazy Calm
This track is new to me but deserves an entry in this list.
4. Disturbed – The Sound Of Silence
The first cover in this list, love what they have done.
3. Delerium feat. Sarah McLachlan – Silence (Tiesto’s In Search of Sunrise Remix)
One of the most popular tracks in trance history.
2. Depeche Mode – Enjoy The Silence
So fragile, simply beautiful.
1. Henk Poort – Sound of Silence
And there is the 2nd cover. Dutch opera singer Henk Poort doing his version of The Sound of Silence in TV show Best Singers.
