Globus is a colossal band creating a blend of dramatic & cinematic music fused with classic rock & pop, amongst other elements.
Globus preformed a live concert in Santa Monica, California, on June 27th. Trailer Music Live, included Globus songs, and Immediate songs. More info can be found here: www.trailermusiclive.com
The core of Globus is essentially a classic rock band, fronted by 24 year old Surrey based Dann Pursey, and featuring Skunk Anansie and Feeder drummer Mark Richardson and Manic Street Preachers’ keyboardist Nick Naysmith.
Globus performed a hugely successful ‘test’ concert last summer at Wembley. As one of the production managers said, “We’ve done rock bands, we’ve done orchestras, we’ve done choirs….but this was the first time that we’d ever had them all in one enormous show!” A TV special and DVD that captured that incredible show is in the works.
Globus has full-length releases on Imperativa Records.

Globus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
+[Terry Wood]
Mother, Father - hear my song
Look at your creation
Brother, where did we go wrong?
Where is our salvation?
Lying naked on the floor
Dying of starvation
In the darkness we explore
Find Illumination
All day, all night
Give a little bit of your love
Back to yourself
It's all right
If we all give a little bit
We can make it
This is our world
This is how we made it
And now is the hour
Only we can save it
Don't be afraid
Love will light the way
The spark that lives in the heart
Of everyone will become
Like a flame
Like the sun
Mother, Father - I'm your
Son, Sister, Brother, Daughter
I am you and we are one
Like the mighty water
Feel the music fill your soul
Feel the love vibration
We are golden, we are whole
We are love's creation
All day, all night
Give a little bit of your love
Back to the earth
It's all right
If we all give a little bit
We can make it
+[Sirsa Shekim, Renee Massey]
Here is our world
This is how we made it
And now is the hour
Only we can save it
Don't be alone
Love will light the way
The spark that lives in the heart
Of everyone - will become
Like a flame
Like the sun
This our world
This is how we made it
We all have the power
Only we can save it
We won't be alone
Love will light the way
The spark that lives in the heart
Of everyone - will become
Like a flame
Like the sun
+[Terry Wood]
Give a little bit of your love back
+[Northwest Sinfonia]
Magna est veritas
Magnus ab integra
In cor unum credo
In salve sat credo
+[Terry Wood]
We can make it
The song "Illumination" by Globus begins with a choir singing a Latin phrase "Magna Est Veritas" which translates to "Great is the truth." The lyrics of the song suggest a plea to the listeners' parents and family members to pay attention to the world they have created and where they went wrong. The metaphor of lying naked on the floor and dying of starvation represents how the world is helpless and in need of nourishment to survive. The darkness represents their lack of direction and the need to find illumination or insight.
The song then shifts to a message of hope and a call for unity. It suggests that if everyone gives a little bit of love back to themselves and the earth, they can make a difference. The lyrics remind the listener that the world we live in is the result of our decisions and actions, and it is up to us to save it. The song emphasizes the power of love to unite everyone and lead them towards enlightenment and salvation.
Overall, "Illumination" is a song that encourages people to take responsibility for the world they live in, and to act with compassion and love towards themselves and others in order to create a better future.

Why can't I listen to one of my favorite genres without having to see people aimlessly arguing over something that can seriously be dealt with somewhere else ... ? ~Sigh~

“Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.” ― Marcus Aurelius (121 CE-180 CE )
@frank86929
Just a beautiful song
@BlackAngelus
Thank you for setting someone straight. And I agree. There is no true faith. True faith doesn't matter. It's only there for those who are insecure about their own convictions. Just believe what you will, as long as you don't bother other people with it. If more people did that, the world would be a better place, not perfect, but definitely better.
@user-sb6qc2if4l
Great song!!!
@LoveYourEnemyMat544
I always thought about this as a song about being kind to one another and the earth. About how were destroying our planet through war, global warming ect letting each-other starve, killing each-other.... and how we need to band together to save ourselves, because in the end we are all in this together-- we're connected like the mighty water. I don't need to believe in God to hear a plead for more compassion and caring.
@The0Stroy
@Tom Really? Without god or afterlife, this is the only life that we ever have. All of us - this is enough reason to care for others. And frankly - do good for goodness sake, not because of heaven and hell.
@Emirichan317
Show people your beliefs in how you live. Then listen to the beautiful music.
@PajamaLass
@Astelon27 I meant that there is limitless potential for an all powerful being with complete control over everything, and that it would be very difficult to explain something like that not being able to do something.
