1) Shaman is the name of a Brazilian Power Metal band, who had changed their name to Shaaman before the release of their second album Reason due to copyright issues. Shaman formed on 2000 by three Angra ex-members - André Matos, Luis Mariutti and Ricardo Confessori. Some time later, Luis' brother Hugo Mariutti (guitars) joined the band, and completed the original line-up. Shaaman split up due to 'musicial differences' in October 2006.
Following the split up, Ricardo Confessori constructed a new line up featuring guitarist Leo Mancini, vocalist Thiago Bianchi and bassist Fernando Quesada. The name "Shaman" was then re-adopted, as per the band's new website, and released the album Immortal in 2007.
2) Shaman was the former name of the Finnish Folk Metal band called Korpiklaani. Shaman is heavy music with yoik singing, shaman drum and lyrics in Northern Samí language (an endangered Finno-Ugric language). They decided to change their name to Korpiklaani (meaning forestclan) though you can still hear things reminding of Shaman.
3) SHAMAN (USPTO trademark in 1990) is a Celtic and World music folk rock group from New York City with their own blend of music to raise ecological and social awareness which they called “Earth Music”. They released 5 albums of recorded music under the Indie label, Solstar Communications from 1990 to 1995. The name SHAMAN was chosen by founder Brahm Stuart (AKA Shaman Starseed) for it’s connotation of communicating for unseen forces of other dimensions to humanity. Shaman played regularly during the 90’s at festivals and clubs in the Northeast U.S., notably at the Starwood Festival and eco-rock-club, Wetlands in New York City where they were a regular headliner advertised as “Celtic Hippie Dancing”. The underlying mission of the group was to help raise awareness of the need to change social consciousness due to the ecological peril that we are in, and to promote a new paradigm of unconditional love and good vibrations for all living beings. Shaman’s 4 albums include “Ode to Mother Earth” 1990, “Live Hobbit Day” 1992 and “The Green Man” 1994, as well as a folk music compilation, “Dans Mediterraneo” 1993. They now reformed to release upcoming cd:
A Change is in the Wind.
4) Shaman is Andreas Henning, a Progressive-Trance producer signed to Plusquam Records in Germany. His musical career started back in 1998 when a friend showed him the first steps in music production and he got hooked on it, fascinated to be able to create music of his own. Over the years, he made big steps forward, improving his production skills and finding his own style. Complex surface compositions, deep bass constructs, carefully used melody sequences and an overall hypnotic groove are the ingredients of his very unique sound. After being present on numerous compilations on recordlabels like Digital Structures, Plusquam, Manta, Novatekk, DOMO, Dance’n’Dust, Tribal Vision, the time was come for his first album "Foretaste" which was released on Plusquam Records in 2004.
August 2006 saw the release of his second studio album "Grv Soldier."
In The Night
Shaman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the night, realm of dreams
Wildness creeps, descending
All so quiet, all so still
Prowling silence in the night
In the heights, on the peaks
There are cities made of light
Ripping though the black of night
All becomes so real
Making dreams come true
To release your mind and free your soul
Fly away from this land
Made of old scraps of sorrow
No way back, free to ride
Hesitation... sacrifice
Mesmerize, hold on tight
For the heavens bend down
There's a tunnel, long and winding
Leading on towards the light
All becomes so real
Making dreams come true
To release your mind and free your soul
Free yourself from misery, let go
Hear my voice and
I will guide your roaming
Oh, free yourself from misery let go
Hear my voice and I will light your road
Leave behind the world you know, and float
Hear my voice and I will guide your roaming
The lyrics of "In The Night" by Shaman evokes a sense of adventure and liberation, as well as the contemplation of life and its meaning. The song starts by painting a picture of quiet and stillness, perhaps representing the mundane routines of daily life, but in the realm of dreams, wildness creeps in and brings new hope and possibilities. The imagery of cities made of light ripping through the black of night represents the sparks of inspiration that can break through the darkness and bring new opportunities.
The chorus emphasizes the transformative power of dreams, as they become real and can release the mind and free the soul. The invitation to fly away from the land of old scraps of sorrow and hesitation, represents the courage to let go of the past and embrace new experiences, with the understanding that sacrifice is sometimes necessary. The idea of a tunnel leading towards the light creates a sense of hope and expectation, suggesting that there is always something better beyond the present circumstances.
The song ends with a call to action, to free oneself from misery and allow the voice of guidance to light the way towards new adventures and a more fulfilling life. The lyrics of "In The Night" encourage the audience to embrace the power of dreams and take action towards achieving their goals, while acknowledging the challenges and sacrifices that may be necessary.
