an effortless performance by Richard Bona. the Tiki album is top notch and sounds incredible. 

 
also anyone who has not heard the  "toto bona lokua" album get it - it is a must have for headphone listening. one of my favorite headphone albums.

LEONARD COHEN ​

 
"Democracy"​
 

 
"Democracy"​
 
It's coming through a hole in the air, [size=1em]​

from those nights in Tiananmen Square. [size=1em][/size]
It's coming from the feel [size=1em][/size]
that this ain't exactly real, [size=1em][/size]
or it's real, but it ain't exactly there. [size=1em][/size]
From the wars against disorder, [size=1em][/size]
from the sirens night and day, [size=1em][/size]
from the fires of the homeless, [size=1em][/size]
from the ashes of the gay: [size=1em][/size]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A. [size=1em][/size]
It's coming through a crack in the wall; [size=1em][/size]
on a visionary flood of alcohol; [size=1em][/size]
from the staggering account [size=1em][/size]
of the Sermon on the Mount [size=1em][/size]
which I don't pretend to understand at all. [size=1em][/size]
It's coming from the silence [size=1em][/size]
on the dock of the bay, [size=1em][/size]
from the brave, the bold, the battered [size=1em][/size]
heart of Chevrolet: [size=1em][/size]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A. [size=1em][/size]
[size=1em][/size]
It's coming from the sorrow in the street, [size=1em][/size]
the holy places where the races meet; [size=1em][/size]
from the homicidal bitchin' [size=1em][/size]
that goes down in every kitchen [size=1em][/size]
to determine who will serve and who will eat. [size=1em][/size]
From the wells of disappointment [size=1em][/size]
where the women kneel to pray [size=1em][/size]
for the grace of God in the desert here [size=1em][/size]
and the desert far away: [size=1em][/size]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A. [size=1em][/size]
[size=1em][/size]
Sail on, sail on [size=1em][/size]
O mighty Ship of State! [size=1em][/size]
To the Shores of Need [size=1em][/size]
Past the Reefs of Greed [size=1em][/size]
Through the Squalls of Hate [size=1em][/size]
Sail on, sail on, sail on, sail on. [size=1em][/size]
[size=1em][/size]
It's coming to America first, [size=1em][/size]
the cradle of the best and of the worst. [size=1em][/size]
It's here they got the range [size=1em][/size]
and the machinery for change [size=1em][/size]
and it's here they got the spiritual thirst. [size=1em][/size]
It's here the family's broken [size=1em][/size]
and it's here the lonely say [size=1em][/size]
that the heart has got to open [size=1em][/size]
in a fundamental way: [size=1em][/size]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A. [size=1em][/size]
[size=1em][/size]
It's coming from the women and the men. [size=1em][/size]
O baby, we'll be making love again. [size=1em][/size]
We'll be going down so deep [size=1em][/size]
the river's going to weep, [size=1em][/size]
and the mountain's going to shout Amen! [size=1em][/size]
It's coming like the tidal flood [size=1em][/size]
beneath the lunar sway, [size=1em][/size]
imperial, mysterious, [size=1em][/size]
in amorous array: [size=1em][/size]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A. [size=1em][/size]
[size=1em][/size]
Sail on, sail on ... [size=1em][/size]
[size=1em][/size]
I'm sentimental, if you know what I mean [size=1em][/size]
I love the country but I can't stand the scene. [size=1em][/size]
And I'm neither left or right [size=1em][/size]
I'm just staying home tonight, [size=1em][/size]
getting lost in that hopeless little screen. [size=1em][/size]
But I'm stubborn as those garbage bags [size=1em][/size]
that Time cannot decay, [size=1em][/size]
I'm junk but I'm still holding up [size=1em][/size]
this little wild bouquet: [size=1em][/size]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.​

The National - Trouble Will Find Me
 
Just finished listening to this for the first time. This is a very satisfying record, although perhaps not quite as good as the group's previous three efforts.
 

 
Edit

Negură Bunget - OM
 
About to listen to this for the first time. I've had the album for just over a year, but due to the sometimes quite rapid pace at which I acquire new music I haven't taken the time to listen to it until now.
 
Edit 2: I ended up listening to the album twice. An amazing record.
