Armin Van Buuren - This World Is Watching Me


Armin Van Buuren:
A progressive trance DJ and producer whose cinematic sound is influenced by synth pioneers like Klaus Schulze and Jean-Michel Jarre, Armin van Buuren enjoys worldwide recognition and a frantic schedule that takes him all over the globe. Born on December 25, 1976, in Leiden, Holland. A close friend introduced him to the world of dance music, and the Dutch DJ and remixer Ben Liebrand quickly became his main inspiration. It lead van Buuren to start investigating the roots of the electronic music he was becoming fond of. In 1995 van Buuren attended the Leiden University and a local student club provided the venue for his first DJ gigs, and when the money came in, it was rolled back into producing 12"s. Cyber Records released his first hit, "Blue Fear," in 1995, and by 1999 his "Communication" was successful enough to get him signed to AM:PM. He also formed his own label, Armid, in 1999 and met Dave Lewis, a man responsible for jump-starting the careers of DJ Tiësto and Ferry Corsten. A collaboration with Tiësto yielded his biggest hit yet on Armid, "Eternity," and marathon five-hour sets brought him more attention. High-profile remixes of Madison Avenue's "Don't Call Me Baby" and Wamdue Project's "King of My Castle" followed, and numerous mix CDs were released on United Recordings. 2002 found him placing number five in DJ Magazine's Top 100 and hosting his own weekly show on the Dutch IDT radio station. By the end of 2003 he found time to set the worldwide record for longest DJ set (12 and a half hours at a club in The Hague), finish his law degree, and release his first non-mix CD.in the year 2006 he released his album ( state of trance )which included the song ( the world is watching me )


I want more than you can give
I'm so cold with every kiss
I can cope with a love like this

I let go
But I cling
To a love I'll never see
Give me faith
It feels like I just don't burn the dark
I steal for love
Nothing ever comes for free

This world is watching me
This world is watching me...

It drains the blood from me
It pains my skin so deep
Now all thats left is all i need

This world is watching me
This world is watching me

This world is watching me
This world is watching me
