1. Era (Enminenti… Read Full Bio ↴There is more than one band/artist with this name:
1. Era (Enminential Rythmn of the Ancestors) (styled as eRa) is a New Age music project by French composer Eric Lévi. The band has sold more than 12 million albums. They use lyrics (by Guy Protheroe) which although similar to Greek or Latin are in fact deliberately devoid of any exact meaning.
Era mixes Gregorian chants and occasionally world music with contemporary electronic arrangements. It is reminiscent of New Age music projects such as Enigma, Gregorian, and Deep Forest. Era lyrics are written in Pseudo-Latin, as well as in English. Some of them are based on beliefs of the 13th century French Christian sect, the Cathars.
Era's live shows and music videos often feature artists dressed in medieval or traditional clothes and armour. Most usually, actors Pierre Bouisierie and Irene Bustamante perform at Era shows.
"As a rule, I try to avoid copying musical styles which are imposed by epochs and cultures; I am always on the lookout for strong emotions; the sort that accompany an epic film. In fact, I am writing music for a film which has not yet been made!" says Eric Levi.
Eric Lévi (real name Eric Jacques Levisalles), born 1955 in Paris, France, is a musician. In 1975 Eric Lévi founded the hard rock band Shakin' Street with Fabienne Shine, which would release the two albums Vampire Rock and Solid as a Rock. Shakin' Street briefly toured with AC/DC and the Blue Öyster Cult before disbanding in 1981. He then moved to New York, and back to Paris in 1992. Later on in his career, Eric Lévi wrote the musical score to several movies, including L'Opération Corned-beef and the comedy Les Visiteurs which was an international success and one of the highest grossing movies of all time in France.
Lévi is best known for being the mastermind behind the musical project ERA, and for inventing the Latin sounding words of these songs.
Era's self-titled debut album in 1997 proved to be a hit, becoming the most exported French album with over 6 million copies sold. A sequel, Era 2 was released in 2000, followed by Era: The Mass in 2003. The trilogy is characterized by a mixture of rock, synth, and pseudo-Latin Gregorian chant.
In 1999, he moved to London, where he lives today.

Cathar Rhythm
Era Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't you turn your eyes?
And if you dare to look
I'll be you waiting
Impera e nessimo
Impera samie nero
Dove di immantore Dio
You hear my prayer
Don't you turn your eyes?
And if you dare to mourn
I'll be you waiting
Impera e nessimo
Impera samie nero
Dove di immantore torra
E mani diavole
E mano diavole
E nere mani diavole
Impera e nessimo
Impera samie nero
Dove di immantore Dio
Don't you come back now?
Don't you turn your eyes?
E nere mani diavole
You hear my prayer
E nere mani diavole
I'll be you waiting
The lyrics of Era's song Cathar Rhythm convey a sense of warning and a call for vigilance. The first stanza almost seems like a threat, perhaps aimed at someone who has caused harm or has chosen to leave. The phrases "Don't you come back now?" and "Don't you turn your eyes?" suggest that there will be consequences if the person in question does not heed the warning. The following stanza is a plea to a higher power, marked by the repeated phrase "Impera e nessimo" (reign supreme) and "Samie nero" (black skies). The lyrics suggest that a dark force is looming and that one must be vigilant against it. The final stanza is a repetition of the earlier warnings, with the added imagery of "e nere mani diavole" (black devil hands).
The lyrics of Cathar Rhythm are cryptic and open to interpretation, but they suggest a sense of danger and the importance of vigilance against harmful forces. The repeated phrases and imagery create a sense of urgency, urging the listener to pay attention and be wary. The song's title, a reference to the Cathars, a medieval religious group persecuted by the Catholic Church, adds an additional layer of meaning, implying a struggle against oppressive forces.

Oltre ad Ameno, ed Enae Volare Mezzo, questa era in un vivido ricordo nella mia memoria.. quando la senti per la prima volta, ti attraversa un'energia che ti carica, sensualità, amore, fortezza, speranza.
Resta il mio sogno: vivere nel Medioevo o in un'altra era.. non questa..
Stupendamente magnifica 🖤🌵☘️

Testo:
Non torni indietro adesso?
Non giri lo sguardo?
E se avrai il coraggio di guardare
Io ti starò aspettando
*L'impero è nulla
*L'impero divenne nero
*Dove sei divinità immensa
Ascolta la mia preghiera
Non abbassare lo sguardo
E se avrai il coraggio di piangere
Io ti starò aspettando
*L'impero è nulla
*L'impero divenne nero
*Dove sei divinità immensa
*E le mani diaboliche
*E la mano del diavolo
*E le nere mani del diavolo
*L'impero è nulla
*L'impero divenne nero
*Dove sei divinità immensa
Non torni indietro adesso?
Non giri lo sguardo?
(*E le nere mani del diavolo)
Ascolta la mia preghiera
(*E le nere mani del diavolo)
Io ti starò aspettando...
Non torni indietro adesso?
Non giri lo sguardo?
E se avrai il coraggio di guardare
Io ti starò aspettando... Aspettando..."

Never knew a title of this song nor it was Era that was singing it. I'm so glad to find it after about 20 years I heard it for the first time! 🥰
@tudorrenegade7052
I am happy for you. My mother bought the Era tape when it came out, I was early teen, those were good times. I've seen a live show once with this song, actors/dancers and white sheets in the wind , very beautiful.
@lroyalstylel
Nunca entenderé por qué, estás piezas tan buenas no tienen tantas reproducciones como lo merecen.
@susanamenezes6357
Mui antiguas.
@cristianlauga9551
Porque en esos años la musica no se masificaba tanto ya que no habia redes sociales, aplicaciones etc y es por eso que esta generación no conoce este tipo de musica, gracias a Dios logré vivir los 90s como debe ser
@leon2258
por qué poca gente sabe identificar una buena melodía... muy pocas personas!!! pero es una gran melodía....
@Raldonado
@@cristianlauga9551, ah, caray, yo también viví en los noventa y hasta ahorita me planteo cómo debíamos vivir en esa década como debía ser.
@JaibaBrava85
Y pensar que ahora lo más es peso pluma y esas pendejadas de reggaeton.....que triste
@ademarb.sallesjunior8528
