hello everyone, Im a relatively new fan of Libera and therefore havn't got many of their songs yet (I buy them off itunes seperately rather than getting the full album - poor student!) and I was wandering if anyone could recommend any songs they think i might like?
The sorts of songs i like a the ones with latin in and a powerful chorus (eg I am the Day, Sanctus, Libera, Salva me, Far Away) Im not really into the slower songs such as Do not Stand, Secret, Love and Mercy - although I do recognise that these songs are amazing!
Can anyone help? Danie :D

Have you heard Adoramus, sempiterna, and dies irae those are some upbeat songs, I'm poor too so I listen to the songs for free on Imeem.com registration is free too.

Ahh... You want Wings of a Dove!! One of my all time favorites!! Very powerful song, and slightly chilling at times too... The notes these boy's can hit! :D Another one, you might already have it though, is Sempiterna. It starts out slow but builds up to a very powerful chorus!! Ave Verum, Stay With Me, Adoramus and Voca Me are also all fairly exciting songs.... Do you have Sancte from New Dawn?? Liam does a positively wonderful job on it, hitting all of those notes that normal, slightly less angelic people with a slight lack of talent in the art of singing can only dream of :D Well, that's all I can think of right now... but there are more :D

I felt it necessary to come up with a term that really describes me.... And that sentence basically sums it up :D

Hi, a friend of mine who doesn't like slow songs absolutely love Adoramus when I recommend it to her. I haven't really heard the earlier albums by Libera, and I'm quite a new fan to Libera as well, (having listening to their songs for a little over a year). I have Free, Visions, Libera In Concert Dvd and New Dawn, and I must tell you, New Dawn's definitely my favourite among all the albums. You might like Voca me from Free, Something sings from Visions, Going home, Far Away (The Angel Voices album, those you can find the videos from youtube is my favourite version, solo sang by Michael.), Lacrymosa from Libera in concert (if you like music that sounds mysterious, however a little slow), Orinoco flow, Gloria, Sancte Never be alone from New Dawn! Enjoy all the songs, I bet you'll really love them!
