(Wetton/Downes)
The time is right for dancing, New Moon is rising high
The stars they shine like diamonds do, within a velvet sky
Who cares when it is midnight? No curfew here, I swear
The angels dance with us tonight, the Devil won't be there
Warm breeze from the Sahara, at St. Rene? l'Abbe?
Fling your shoes into the wind, and roll your cares away
Listen children, what's that sound?
Won't you come and hear our music play
All good children gather round
And we'll dance the holy night away,
What you say?
Step this way
It's okay...
Our troubles are but bubbles, floating off toward the moon
This special time is precious, for the morning comes too soon
So, listen to the music, and join us if you dare
Come and take a breath of this intoxicating air
This is a perfect evening, there's magic here tonight
If you believe in miracles, there's plenty here tonight
Listen children, what's that sound?
Won't you come and hear our music play
All good children gather round
And we'll dance the holy night away,
What you say?
Step this way
It's okay
E?coutez!
The lyrics LISTEN, CHILDREN of ASIA is also present in the album Omega (2010)
Asia è un supergruppo formatosi nel 1981 da membri di gruppi leggendari come Yes, King Crimson, Emerson Lake and Palmer e Uriah Heep. Il nucleo originale comprendeva Geoff Downes (tastiere), John Wetton (basso, voce), Steve Howe (chitarra) e Carl Palmer (batteria). Nel corso degli anni la formazione ha subito diverse variazioni, con l'ingresso di altri musicisti di spicco. Sebbene non abbiano raggiunto lo stesso livello di fama critica dei gruppi da cui provenivano i membri, Asia vanta una base di fan fedele che apprezzano il loro stile musicale caratterizzato da un mix di AOR (Adult Oriented Rock) e progressivo. Tra le canzoni più rappresentative si ricordano 'Heat of the Moment', 'Only Time Will Tell' e 'Separate but Whole'. L'album di debutto omonimo del 1982 è stato un grande successo commerciale.
