Give peace a chance
For a new generation
Give peace a chance
For a new generation
There's the power of the world
If it depends on
Give a peace of chance
Wanna follow my thoughts
Tray your weight
When you're believing in god
Now that's just one thing
And here comes another
Unity you better live with each other
I'm sitting there to get away
I'm thinking about to phone
Take a look around
You're not on your own
Give it a peace a chance
One love one nation
Sing it for a new generation
Give peace a chance
For a new generation
Give peace a chance
For a new generation
Take me to another world
Where people will be changing
Give peace a chance
For a new generation
Give the peace a chance
Better follow my way
Gotta get the new enjoyment
So let the music play
We're here on this lose
There is only one chance
To make a living out
Of music and dance
Integrating everyone every race
I wanna see it in your heart
Pure love and no hate
Give the peace a chance
One love one nation
Sing it for a new generation
For a new for a new
For a new generation
For a new for a new
For a new generation
Give peace a chance
For a new generation
Give peace a chance
For a new generation
Take me to another world
Where people will be changing
Give peace a chance
For a new generation
Come on come on come on come on
Come on give peace a chance
Come on come on come on come on
Come on for a new generation

Ком в горле стоит,когда я вспоминаю дискотеку и всех пацанов и девок в94 г

@user-fe6jb8mq4x

Отличные приятные и добрые воспоминания навеял клип. Охренительно !!! Каких то 25 лет назад я писал на парте в универе названия любимых техно-команд... Technotronic, Dune, SCOOTER, Culture Beat, Afrika Bambaataa, Masterboy, Prince Ital Joe Feat. Marky Mark, Dr.Alban, Leila K., Intermission, E-Type, COOL JAMES & BLACK TEACHER, Captain Hollywood, MAXX, ICE MC, B.G. The Prince of rap, Snap, KLF, God's Groove...Тридцать-сорок названий. Затем пришёл Dream Dance и Progressive House... Недавно благодаря YouTube старая забытая любовь прожгла молнией. Я обожаю эту музыку, благодарен этим ребятам! EVRODANCE&RAVE FOREVER !!!

@user-qr2mr3fk1q

Самые три крутые платформы - тут, а также Technotrance club и Техно микс 90..

@user-qc8hx2pw7f

DJ BOBO ещё к тому списку

@user-bi8mt3ws2m

Ты не один!

@3000Step

Ну это не Техно же.Мужик ты попутал евродэнс с корнями EDM

@user-qr2mr3fk1q

@@3000Step Я имею фирменные диски всех этих дэнсовых групп и на них четко написано, что это технодэнс или технорэйв дэнс..А у Intermission, особо 95го года - чистый технорэйв.. Евродэнс вообще не было такого понятия и слова в 90ые, это было придумано позже для удобства поиска. По саунду евродэнсом можно назвать типа там Ace Of Base и пр.. Но великие типа Pharao, Imperio, Dune и т.д. это Techno Dance, Techno Rave или rave Hardcore Dance, что часто и произносится в их хитах.. Я крутой спец по совр. танц. музыке начиная с 90ых и знаю наверно больше всех на всем постсоветском пространстве и являюсь крутым фэном.. У нас был спец. клуб любителей СТМ в Харькове..А с конца 90ых - конкретно дримтрэнс(DT music), кот. потом перерос в название Uplifting Trance, а есть еще общее название для поиска - Евротрэнс двухтысячных.. На всех дисках тех групп типа 4 Strings, Ian Van Dahl, Sylver.. написано Dream(house) and Trance music и по саунду ясно в сокращении что это DreamTrance..Иногда в сборник попадали хаусные вещи, но это немного другое..Поэтому любимые стили космо величия это TechnoDance, TechnoRave или Rave(Hardcore) Dance, а в новом веке великие DreamTrance или Uplifting Vocal Trance.. Все остальное - примитив, убожество..

@williamserafim9079
