1) Arabesque was a famous German disco music group formed in 1977, consisting of Sandra Cretu (joined the group in 1979), Jasmin Vetter, and Michaela Rose. After a split in 1984 Jasmin Vetter and Michaela Rose continued as the group "Rouge", while Sandra Cretu started her career in the group Sandra with Michael Cretu.

Arabesque was popular in Japan, selling more than 6 million albums there. They also had success in the USSR. In 1980 the single "Take Me Don't Break Me" became a hit, which only scraped the German Top 40. Their next single, "Marigot Bay", would become their single Top Ten hit a few weeks later. Their last singles "Ecstasy" and "Time to Say Goodbye", turned hits after their split, on various central, south and east European countries, because they sounded very close to the "Italo-disco" sound, a very popular music genre of the European Discotheques at that time. Those songs spread and gained success through LP compilations of dance/pop music and bootleg tapes, so the group never could take advantage of this success neither those songs turn on any kind of charts as "singles". That was a common problem for many '80s European artists. The last Arabesque singles introduced the "Italo-disco" sound to Japan, under the term "eurobeat", previously used in the UK for the Stock Aitken Waterman productions. That soon lead to Japan's Super Eurobeat music style.

On December 16, 2006 Arabesque (featuring Michaela Rose and two new members Sabine Kaemper and Silke Brauner) headlined the second Retro FM festival in Moscow.

2) "One of hip hop’s most talked about artists, Besque continues to intrigue Music’s biggest names. Signing with UK based label Sin Nombre with distro via Universal, “The Frenzy Of Renown” was released with glowing reviews. He was nominated Rap Recording of the Year at the 2007 Juno Awards, hosted by Nelly Furtado. International press in various publications, also landing him in a meet and greet with The Source Magazine staff in New York. Fall of 2007 Arabesque graced his first cover of an international magazine with NOX, the leading and most admired English speaking Mid East publication. A slew of global 12 inch singles with a wide-reach across campus radio charts. As well earning himself sponsorship’s from L-R-G and Scifen Clothing. Arabesque has opened up for artists such as Wu-tang's Raekwon, Little Brother, Zion I, Dilated Peoples and Sean Paul."

3) Arabesque is a Dutch powerhouse trio from the mid nineties.
They produce an interesting music pure mixture of rock, fusion and progressive elements.
But they has two female singers in his second album "The Union" (2002), very different from his debut album, "Beyond the veil", 8 years before. Though could be qualified as prog-metal is easier to listen to than other bands if you're not into that music style. A "lighter" Dream Theater...?

6) Arabesque were a Pittsburgh area progressive rock band that began in 1973. They have one archival CD on Shroom Records containing recordings from 1976-1979.

Arabesque Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanted to be alone
I went off just on my own
To some tiny little island I was flying
And now I'll stay
Until the day I'm dying
On Moorea

I came for a holiday

(She was so alone)
Then I saw your lovely bay
Oh my tiny little island I've been trying
Not to start crying
Oh Moorea

Moo-oo-re-a
You've been waiting for me
Let me stay, it will be
Forever Moo-oo-oo-rea
Moo-oo-re-a
For the rest of my life
Fill the final goodbye
I love you Moo-oo-rea

I had to forget a man
But I fell in love again
To my tiny little island I came lonely
When day was done
I've found my one and only
On Moorea

You sail on the deep blue sea
So in love again
Through the tropic night with me
In your strong and loving arms
You bring me starry eyed
Back to the harbourlights
Of Moorea

Moo-oo-re-a
You've been waiting for me
Let me stay, it will be
Forever Moo-oo-oo-rea
Moo-oo-re-a
For the rest of my life
Fill the final goodbye
I love you Moo-oo-rea

Moo-oo-re-a
You've been waiting for me
Let me stay, it will be
Forever Moo-oo-oo-rea
Moo-oo-re-a
For the rest of my life
Fill the final goodbye
I love you Moo-oo-rea

Moo-oo-re-a
You've been waiting for me
Let me stay, it will be
Forever Moo-oo-oo-rea
Moo-oo-re-a
For the rest of my life

Fill the final goodbye
I love you Moo-oo-rea

Line by Line Meaning

I wanted to be alone
I desired solitude

I went off just on my own
I left without anyone to an unfamiliar place

To some tiny little island I was flying
I was traveling by air towards a small island

And now I'll stay
I decided to remain there

Until the day I'm dying
I will not leave until the end of my life

On Moorea
I chose to go to Moorea

I came for a holiday
I visited for a leisurely break

Then I saw your lovely bay
I discovered the beautiful bay of the place

Not to start crying
To avoid crying

Oh Moorea
I am experiencing strong emotions in Moorea

Moo-oo-re-a
Moorea's name is being repeated

You've been waiting for me
Moorea has been waiting for my arrival

Let me stay, it will be
I want to stay here and it will be a great time

Forever Moo-oo-oo-rea
I will stay here forever and ever in Moorea

For the rest of my life
For the remainder of my life I will be here in Moorea

Fill the final goodbye
Stay with me until the last moment before I leave

I love you Moo-oo-rea
I have developed a deep affection for Moorea

I had to forget a man
I needed to move on from a previous relationship

But I fell in love again
I found a new person to love

To my tiny little island I came lonely
I arrived at the small island feeling alone

When day was done
At the end of the day

I've found my one and only
I discovered my soulmate

You sail on the deep blue sea
We are sailing on the deep blue sea

So in love again
I am feeling love once more

Through the tropic night with me
We are experiencing a romantic night amidst the tropics

In your strong and loving arms
I feel safe and loved in your embrace

You bring me starry eyed
Being with you fills me with wonder and enchantment

Back to the harbourlights
We are returning to the illuminated harbor
