Age Of Loneliness Lyrics

"Age Of Loneliness" is a 1994 single by the musical group, Enigma. The single was the second one to be released from The Cross of Changes. The song can be regarded as a remixed version of an earlier Enigma song, Carly’s Song, where the song was originally more laid back and goes at a slower pace. The vocals in the song are whispered by Sandra Cretu and the lyrics actually refers to the main character from Sliver, Carly Norris (played by Sharon Stone). The haunting chant in this song is of Mongolian origin overall the song and has a tinge of Gregorian chanting in it. For the “Enigmatic Club Mix”, the beat of the song was pushed up a notch and laced generously with beeps of morse code throughout the song. The morse code spells out “I love you”. For the “Jam & Spoon Remix”, the song starts off with a short and relaxing piano piece. Although included in the "Age Of Loneliness" single, it is exactly the same one found in the Carly’s Song single. In the music video for the song, the scene is set in New York City and entirely filmed in sepia. People are seen floating through the air weightlessly but remain unseen by the surrounding people.
