Warum gabst du uns die tiefen Blicke,
unsre Zukunft ahndungsvoll zu schaun,
unsrer Liebe, unsrem Erdenglücke
wähnend selig nimmer hinzutraun?
Warum gabst uns, Schicksal, die Gefühle,
uns einander in das Herz zu sehn,
um durch all die seltenen Gewühle
unser wahr Verhältnis auszuspähn?

01. Warum
(Mackeben-Goethe) Warum (deutch; Why?) is a music piece from 1930 or so, made famous by Miliza Korjus who could sing so high that only bats could hear her high notes. Check youtube. But even Tarja is not actually Miliza (Who is? Nobody) She handles this so well that I wanted it to be the opening track. And who sings like Tarja? Nobody. --Jore I know who Goethe is - but I've never heard of Mackeben. Sounds like a sad song of broken hearts - but maybe it's just Tarja reading her shopping list - she sounds fantastic singing anything. Jore does a great arrangement. Beautiful. --Davy
