Sad news. I loved that album even though I am pretty much a metalhead. I have Dreamland on CD in my collection.

 

The strange thing is that I was reminiscing about his music a day or two ago, searching and listening to my favourites from the album. Rather coincidental.

 

So, here they are:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Even though "Children" (I've got two versions above) was his major breakthrough hit, my personal favourites are probably "One and One" (a poppy duet, for its soppy warmth) and "Landscape" (a pure instrumental that stands almost diametrically opposed, very cold and majestic - probably the coldest piece of music he's done).

 

Anyway, RIP Robert.

Whoa!!!! Damn!!!!! Got ghost!!!! I was just listening to his music 2 days ago!!!!

 

Wow, you too?!

 

I consider myself a rational person on the whole, but there is something to be said for the persistent belief in the paranormal. Some things are difficult to dismiss as mere coincidence.

Sad. Children was so popular in the 90s even though I don't listen to trance then. Was more into Techno and eurobeat then. [grin] This is one of the few trance music in my collection. RIP.

Sad. RIP.  [smallcry]

 

He wrote Children for a good cause too. It's to calm party goers down after a hard party, so that they can be awake and alert when they drive home, instead of being high and getting into accidents.

Shouldn't they be listening to Chopin instead? :grin:
