1) The German rave band Dune. The band was founded in 1995 by Oliver Froning and Jens Oettrich, who are both big fans of the novels by Frank Herbert - hence the name Dune. Their first single "Hardcore Vibes" featured the voice of Oliver's then 11-year-old cousin Janine. Their second single "Are you ready to fly?" sounded quite different and already featured the typical Dune-style with high-pitched vocals and a catchy melody.

At the end of 1996 the band released the album "Forever" with a lot of tracks in a classical style - all tracks where performed together with the London Session Orchestra (see Dune & the London Session Orchestra). Lead singer Verena von Strenge left Dune after the release of "Forever" to start a solo career. Dune came back in April 1998 with a new lead singer (Vanessa Hörster). The single "Keep the Secret" was only a medium success and its successor "Electric Heaven" flopped completely.

In late 1999 Verena von Strenge came back as lead singer after her solo career was not as successful as she wanted it to be. The single "Dark Side of the Moon" was released and the album "Reunion" was produced and ready for release in May 2000. However the album was never released due to a court order that stopped the single "Heaven".

The latest single released was "Rainbow To The Stars 2003", a rework of their 1996 classic. It was released on 23 June 2003.

2) A Finnish demoscene tracker musician who adopted the more unique name Brothomstates in the latter half of the 1990s and was later signed to Warp Records.

3) Dune was also an Alias used by Drum & Bass Dj/Artist Ray Keith in the early 1990s.

4) An Indiana-based musician who recorded an album called "Road of Life" in 2000.

5) An Australian power/progressive metal band that is now disbanded. The band only recorded a demo called The Eleventh Hour.

8)Duo made of Laurent Garnier and Pascal F.E.O.S. (Pascal Dardoufas). Released one EP: The Alliance EP: Trance, Ambient style electronic.

9) Four friends from Athens, Ohio, finally came together to form DUNE in 2011. Influenced by their favorite acts (Sabbath, Kyuss, QOTSA, Sword, Truckfighters), DUNE's brand of stoner metal has various undertones--everything from soul to thrash. You can find them on Bandcamp.

10) The progressive sludge/stoner metal Dune formed in recent years in Edinburgh, Scotland. They recently released their first EP entitled 'Progenitor'. You can find them on bandcamp here:

Remember
Dune Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You have seen them coming
You have seen them go
The once that shaped your place in time
But, those you love can't help you
Can't help you when you moan
This is it: you're finally alone

You have seen your last cold winter

And felt your last sun
But, remember to still feel love
When you have felt your last heartbeat
And taken your last breath
Remember to still feel love

Uhhh
Knowing all you should have changed
Doesn't make you braver here at end
So all there's left is love and pain

You have seen your last cold winter
And felt your last sun
But, remember to still feel love
When you have felt your last heartbeat
And taken your last breath

Remember: the world still spins
Uhhh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Dúné's song Remember are a meditation on the inevitability of mortality and the importance of love. The song opens with the singer addressing someone who has witnessed their friends and loved ones come and go, shaping their life and world, but they are now left alone. The lyrics express sadness, loneliness, and a sense of finality, as the person is facing their last cold winter and feeling their last sun. There is a poignant recognition that the people they loved can't help them at this moment, leaving the individual alone with their thoughts and feelings. However, the lyrics offer a sense of comfort in the idea of remembering to still feel love, even as they face their last heartbeat and breath.

The second verse continues with the theme of mortality, urging the listener to remember to still feel love in the face of this inevitability. The lyrics suggest that even if a person knows all the things they should have changed in their life, in the end, all that is left is love and pain. The bridge of the song features an emotional vocalization of "uhh," which reinforces the feeling of sadness and mourning. However, the final refrain reminds the listener that even as they face the end, the world still spins, suggesting a sense of continuity and hope.

Overall, Dúné's Remember is a powerful, heartfelt song that grapples with big themes of life and death, love and loss, and the enduring nature of the human spirit.

You have seen them coming
You have observed people entering your life

You have seen them go
You have observed people leaving your life

The once that shaped your place in time
These people had a significant influence on your past

But, those you love can't help you
Your loved ones cannot relieve your suffering

Can't help you when you moan
They can't be there during your difficult moments

This is it: you're finally alone
You are left alone to deal with your pain

You have seen your last cold winter
You have experienced your last winter season

And felt your last sun
You have experienced your last summer season

But, remember to still feel love
Despite the end of your life, remember to continue to feel love towards others

When you have felt your last heartbeat
When your heart stops beating and your life comes to an end

And taken your last breath
When you have breathed your last breath

Remember to still feel love
Remember to hold onto love as the most important thing in life

Knowing all you should have changed
Regretting missed opportunities and things you should have done differently

Doesn't make you braver here at end
However, dwelling on regret doesn't make you stronger as you face the end of your life

So all there's left is love and pain
At the end of your life, all that remains are the memories of love and the pain of leaving everyone and everything behind

Remember: the world still spins
Despite the end of your life, the world and life itself continues on

Uhhh
An exclamation showing emotion and intensity
