Avg. 6 rating for this? Is that the famous western "open minded" society?

If this was a song from Peter Gabriel, RP elite squad would be raving here about his never ending genius. But, it's not. It comes from a modest girl from Tibet, China. It's baaaad. Right?

Nice Job RP hypocrites.



Given any chance at all, Tibetans would argue that Tibet is NOT part of China. Occupied by China, yes. The PRC doesn't give them any opportunity to argue.

Saw this lady some years ago, not my cup of tea that day, but the rapt faces in the crowd told a different story

This (RP) is not Rock and Roll Paradise.

As Franka Zappa once said, and paraphrase, Americans wouldn’t know good music if it bit them on the ass.

Why would it be?

Sitting in my home office I sometimes phase completely out, and cannot do anything but listen. That's what RP is about. PSD? Sounds like a diagnosis.

It can be fairly common in some parts of the world for people to not know when they were born. They don't place any cultural significance on it. I  had a tibetan girlfriend for a bit, she had no idea what her birthday was or even which year. A lot of refugees just make up some arbitrary date when they register in India. 

I did not know that.
RP - not only am I exposed to such diverse and beautiful music. I'm also being educated with the comment section!

This reminds me of Brian Eno’s Ambient 1/Music for Airports.

Wiki makes me laugh sometimes...for instance, it shows Yungchen was "Born:  1960s"

Love this music.  Too bad so many Tibetans had to leave their country after the Chinese invasion.

This music can only support the dialogue, "Did somebody order a pizza?"
 
Or maybe, "why so xenophobic?"

Quite nice Tibetan or Chinese music, but not to compare in musical or sound quality with the XRCD albums of Dadawa or her promoter and producer He Xun-Tian.

Still...this is a good atmosphere piece...I'm going with a 6 rating and maybe next time it'll fit my mood a bit better.  Long Live RP!!  And thanks BillG for letting me listen to something I wouldn't otherwise get to hear!

It is strange how music can influence the perception of time, this song seems alot longer than it actually is.

Wow, this is a powerful sleep inducer. Nice tune, but can't keep eyelids open.

Yungchen Lhamo is a Tibetan Singer, which is living in exile in New York.
Her name means "Goddess of Melody". {#Notworthy}

Sounds like "superfreak" to me. Where's that goddamn earwax remover gone? Curious wee number. Very Zen, very contemplative, though the lyrics are probably banal. It's the sort of thing you really have to be in the mood for, but when you are it's a 10. A mere 5 for the mo, though. Is the language Mandarin?

For some reason Harrison Ford and a futuristic background comes to mind

I like the ambience --- Cafe del Mar meets something a little more exotic. I'll open with a 6.
