Yes, this is another great song by Enigma called Sadeness

but if you listen to the lyrics closely and understand a bit of French you will hear the words "Sang dit mois" - bloodshed..tell me more ..blood give me...what are you looking for? Why do you want to eat it? Blood.

The lyrics express the sexual desires and seductiveness of the late French revolutionary Marquis de Sade. (In his time, perhaps virginous blood?)

I love the intricate Baroque/Rococco chanting and poeticism and history behind this song.
I would give anything to be able to interpret ancient Greek, Latin or Egyptian Heiroglyphics! This song only further proves what a fascinating ancient world we live in and how important history is to today.
And altho the video is modern it exemplifies the awakenings of mankind through (out) history. I just love it!

wow ..I was swept away to an imaginary, fantasy dreamworld there for a minute! Have returned to normalcy now..whewww! .....whahhhhh
