2). Gaia is an alias of dutch trance producer Armin van Buuren. It was first used back in 2000 for an uplifting trance track produced for the 4 Elements festival in Holland, also titled 4 Elements. He abandoned the majority of his aliases soon after and focused on producing under his own name. However, in 2009 he resurrected the Gaia alias with Tuvan, a track produced with Benno de Goeij from Rank 1 exclusively for his A State of Trance 2009 compilation that had many parallels with his classic work. In 2010 he continued the tradition by producing Aisha for the A State of Trance 2010 compilation, also featuring heavily in the 450th episode of his radioshow.

6). Gaia are based in South Yorkshire and were formed in 1996 after Dave and Iains first band "Strawberry Hill" split up in the early 95. In 2002 John Westy and Dave got together and have been the cornerstones of the band. Steve G joined in 2008 after the departure of long time serving drummer Steve Booth and the band are back on fire with a new album, "Sun into gold"due out in 2010 after four years since their first album attempt namely "Soulwind". This next attempt is simply more than before and has been a pleasure to create. Gaia will be gigging regularly over the next year promoting and selling what will be the bands best work so far.
Human
Gaia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
I'm only, I'm only
I'm only human, human, human
Maybe I'm foolish and maybe I'm blind
Thinking I can see through this
And see what's behind
Got no way to prove it
But I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put your blame on me
Don't put your blame on me
Take a look in the mirror
And what do you see
Do you see it clearer
Or are you deceived
In what you believe
'Cause I'm only human after all
You're only human after all
Don't put the blame on me
Don't put your blame on me
Some people got the real problems
Some people out of luck
Some people think I can solve them
Lord, heaven's above
'Cause I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put the blame on me
Don't put the blame on me
Don't ask my opinion
Don't ask me to lie
Then beg for forgiveness
For making you cry
For making you cry
'Cause I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put your blame on me
Don't put the blame on me
Oh, some people got the real problems
Some people out of luck
Some people think I can solve them
Lord, heaven's above
'Cause I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put the blame on me
Don't put the blame on me
(I'm only human) I make mistakes
(I'm only human) that's all it takes
(To put the blame on me)
Don't put the blame on me
I'm no prophet or Messiah
Should go looking somewhere higher
I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put the blame on me
Don't put the blame on me
I'm only human
I do what I can
I'm only human
I do what I can
Don't put the blame on me
Don't put your blame on me
In the song "Human" by Gaia, the repeated refrain "I'm only human" emphasizes the singer's vulnerability and limitations. The lyrics acknowledge the potential for foolishness and blindness, recognizing the inability to always perceive the full truth of a situation. Despite this, the singer asserts their humanity and urges others not to assign blame unfairly but to empathize with their humanity.
The song delves into introspection as the singer urges listeners to reflect on themselves and question their own perceptions and beliefs. They emphasize that everyone, including themselves, is fallible and prone to error. The repetition of "I'm only human after all" serves as a reminder that mistakes are inevitable and that understanding and compassion should prevail over judgment and blame.
The lyrics also touch upon the idea of inequality and the varying struggles people face. The singer acknowledges that some face real problems or are simply unlucky, while others may mistakenly expect them to have all the answers. The plea not to put blame on the singer conveys a sense of humility and a desire for understanding rather than condemnation.
As the song progresses, the singer rejects the pressure to provide easy answers or pretend to be someone they are not. They express that asking for forgiveness for causing pain is part of being human, but it is essential to recognize that everyone has their limitations. The lyrics ultimately convey a message of self-acceptance and a plea for empathy and understanding towards oneself and others in their human imperfections.
