Yesterday, we knocked on Heaven's door, today we knock on forbidden doors with #8 in my countdown of my favorite songs with "door" in the title: "Knocking on Forbidden Doors" by an act making their debut in one of my music series': Enigma.
German-based Enigma is the vehicle for musician and producer Michael Cretu. Enigma has sold over 70 million records worldwide, with over a hundred certified gold or platinum records.
Hell, their debut album, MCMXE aD, sold over 8 1/2 million copies in the United States alone. "Knocking on Forbidden Doors" is the second to last tune on that record, and fits in perfectly with the trippy chill out vibe of the album.
Just how trippy is it? Once, a friend and I were baked out of our gourds. We just sat there, listening to MCMXE aD over and over and over, getting sucked in to the album's hypnotic vibe.
I've linked to a video of the tune for your chill out needs.

Ooh, yeah, that's definitely chill out music. I want to listen to this again tonight at home, with the headphones on!

@teamfreak16 Yes, I just noticed. And now I do recognise this one, but did not know that was what it was called - thank you for the trip down memory lane.
I am rather hooked on this powerful rendition and graphics of another favourite these days:

@pgntwo - I've heard that one before. They did a good job making it their own while still staying true to the original.
