The sun god. Every religion has one in some guise or
another. Think life force. Think birth, death and
resurrection. Think all-consuming passion. The ancient
Egyptians called theirs RA. It's a fitting name for a band,
especially one that generates such passion with its
dynamic, multi-dimensional sound--and one that has cheated
death in a sense. "Naming the band RA wasn't about tying it
in with the Egyptians," says
vocalist/multi-instrumentalist/producer Sahaj. "It was more
about the actual sun god. The solar system and our planet's
ecosystem is completely dependent upon the sun. Plus it's a
fiery, passionate image."
It almost didn't happen, though. "I knew I was able to

------ About the song Do You Call My Name performed by Ra
I like this song. I have trouble with authority is why.
For instance. I go to college so I can get a good career. Yet it feels more like society has forced me do something my heart isn't into. This gives me courage to relax and remember that life is more than taking social norms. It lets me breath and sounds good at the same time.
Great Song | Reviewer: Al-x
------ About the song Swimming Upstream performed by Ra
I love this song, and i think I'm about to feel exactly as this guy today when I try to kiss a girl, I really hope she kisses me back, but since she has a boyfriend it's probable that she'll avoid me just out of moral remorse because I know she really likes me

------ About the song Do You Call My Name performed by Ra
it's a great song and i can really relate to it. my parents try to control my life and make me live by their believes instead of my own and it really pisses me off. and zylo's right, each song is about the artist not us so we should look at it from their perspectives too.
The truth | Reviewer: Jeremy
------ About the song Do You Call My Name performed by Ra
When i first heard this song....my ex turned me on to it..... it fits her... her parents hold her within a locked cell....distorting and destroying any hope that she could have had of living a life outside of their own narrow sighted visions of what HER life should be... They destroyed our relationship..and pretty much semblance of the live we tried to creat as a couple.. I have never seen a song describ someone so perfectly.

------ About the song Do You Call My Name performed by Ra
A child locked within ignorance. People would lie to the child to make up a life that doesn't exist. They try to control who you are and who you become, but finally the child loses it and forgets who is who, creating a cynic. They generalize and blame everyone for what a few did. That is my interpretation of this song. The artist wrote one thing, he meant it one way, but to millions, it's another story. Your interpretation?
RA | Reviewer: Natali
------ About the song Do You Call My Name performed by Ra
Someone locked within ignorance, wanting to live their own life. People controlling it for them, not letting them see the truth. The ignorance begins to fade and you begin to hate those who've tried to control a life they shouldn't be meddling with. You become a cynic and hate the world for the actions of a few.
That is my interpretation of this song.
The Meaning | Reviewer: Alina
------ About the song Do You Call My Name performed by Ra
Sahaj Ticotin (Ra's vocalist) says that this song is actually about manic depression/bipolar disorder. He explained that the pre-chorus is about how society views the illness and the chorus is how the person suffering from it feels.
"So you just sit there, stuck, afraid to risk reality
Afraid to cause yourself more pain, to face insanity
But nothing ventured, nothing gained"
It makes so much sense now that I know! I thought it'd be something interesting to share :)

------ About the song Swimming Upstream performed by Ra
This song, truly knows exactly how i feel at the moment, i had a hard time explaining how i felt to myself, and this...man this just says it all.
I have always loved this song, but since the girl whom I like and was liked back by decided to be with someone else, it's got a special place to me now.
Ra is awesome, they have the heavy sound but with a good singer. Its perfect.

------ About the song Fallen Angels performed by Ra
Fallen Angels is a really great song, with a deeper meaning (Javens words) - like nearly all songs of Ra.
The songs 'I Lost Everything Today', 'Only', 'Fallen Rock Zone' and 'Do You Call My Name' are also great.
Okay, I love Ra. I love their sound and voices, but sometimes I think the lyrics are thrown together to make something sound interesting. Most of it makes sense when you think about it, but a line or two seems like total bullshit just thrown in there. - IMHO: Ra, Keep on playing, but double check your lyrics for coherence and cohesiveness
It's about right | Reviewer: Dan
------ About the song Do You Call My Name performed by Ra
I spent from 10 through 14 and a half years old locked up, this is about as close as I've heard to what it's like at least early on. Later the anger takes over more.
Kids come out of lockups the way they do for a reason.
Love it | Reviewer: Aaron
------ About the song Swimming Upstream performed by Ra
I love this song, the lyrics really do touch your heart. They make me cry almost every time I listen to the song. Another song, that I would recommend is Danse Russe by Hurt. Its another song that makes me cry.

------ About the song Fallen Angels performed by Ra
When I heard this song I could really connect to it right away. Loved the deeper meaning, it's a bit hard to explain unless you get it, but it's great. Amazing, amazing song!

------ About the album From One performed by Ra
I had nothin on my iPod so my friend dumped around 1600 songs onto it. Ra – From One was the first album that played when I put on ‘shuffle’ and after hearing just the song Sky, I put it on ‘repeat album’ and have been listening to that album on ‘shuffle songs’ and ‘repeat album’ for a month straight.
