The Orb of Dreamers


The Orb of Dreamers by The Daniel Pemberton TV Orchestra


Adam introduced this track to me via LittleBigPlanet – a game where one can design, interact, and so much more. The narrator has an accent and the introduction is mind-blowing and seriously the game is amazing. Through Sackboy (the main character) and with him, you journey from one place to another. Beautiful.

Adam plays levels in the car and we listen to the tracks of each. The Orb of Dreamers has been my favorite yet, and I've downloaded it. I suggest you listen to it.

It reminds me of the joy you receive when you meet a goal or when you feel the euphoria bubbling in you.  I don't want to complicate it – or trivialize it with my words – but I admit that I sense longing and melancholy somewhere in it. When the Titanic sank, fresh ghosts danced from room to room, and the world experienced loss but they breathed in new life. As phantoms, they sojourned without shackles.

Yes. Longing.
