Teyla sings!

[Peoples_General]

She has a great voice. I think it fits very well to her medieval-like Athosian culture. I also liked the Lire music.

Rachel sounds quite lovely. The song is very ethereal, and I agree with whoever likened it to celtic.

Thank you Macktheknife for the sound file.

Hurry up January.

I loved the song! I thought it was very pretty! Rachel has a gorgeous voice. I also thought it was a nice moment for a sort of montage - worked really well, and help keep the viewer from losing track of the main story during the song.

I gotta agree, though, the dubbing job was pretty poor.

I must say that I really got emotional whilst Teyla sang that song. For some reason, I think that the inclusion of her singing would've done better in a 90-minute episode.

Beside from the part where she talks at the start it doesn't sound like her. She is very multi-talented.
Much better than what i expected!

[Whatazarian]

Thanks, The song just made that episode so much more of a Stargate classic (not just an Atlantis or SG-1 Classic, but a Stargate classic..)

Here it is:

Beyond the night, a rising sun
Beyond the night, the battle's won
The battle is won.

Fear and shame now in the past
Pain and sorrow gone at last
Gone at last.

Circle renewed, peace will be found
Beyond the night on sacred ground.

River flows led by the wind
First new breath, our journey begins
Our journey begins.

Rachel Luttrell is a very talented singer

Yeah so is Chris Judge, did you

Spoiler:

[The Signal]

Thanks!!!! What a voice RL has, wow!

[SmallTimePerson]

She can also play the paino and she is a licensed bartender. WOW. According to IMDb she studied shakespeare in university

[duffarama]

Thanks for uploading the song to various hosts. Much appreciated.

[Skyler]

This song reminds me of a song I have heard before. Is this a remake of a song done by another artist, or an original song? Does anyone know?

I agree, Rachel's voice is AMAZING. I really do hope they allow her to sing again.

I agree also that this song will probably (I say probably cause in the states we have not seen Critical Mass) make this a Stargate classic. I have seen a vid done for the episode by Torri http://delcroixjeanluc.free.fr/213/CriticalMass.wmv and it almost brought me to tears the first time I saw it. So if the song goes along with the episode as much as that vid does, wow!

[KRiZ]

thats an awesome vid, kinda spoils the ep tho!

Rachel does have an amazing voice, damn impressed by it during the ep

[nyuszi]

thanx for the lyrics. saved them...

and thanx for the vid as well. yay! can't wait to see the ep.

[OfF3nSiV3]

heck i doubt it was her, and she was playbacking, i even hated the song moment
agh, the important is you guys liked, so they pleased the majority =P
