Bucket List

[The Main List] [Intro: Deep bassline builds, hi-hats start ticking] [Spoken] 10. Alhambra, Spain [Sung] Islamic art where the stone tells a story, Citadel of palaces and Moorish glory. Lost for centuries, restored in the south, History of Spain passing mouth to mouth. [Drop the bass] [Spoken] 9. Petra, Jordan [Sung] Carved in the rock where the desert winds blow, An ancient kingdom from a long time ago. Gotta see it now while the borders stay clear, A world heritage that we hold so dear. [Spoken] 8. Outback, Australia [Sung] Arid interior, wild and deep, Where the survival documentaries sleep. North to South or East to West, Uluru’s Red Rock puts the soul to the test. [Spoken] 7. Yellowstone National Park, USA [Sung] Oldest in the world, where the wild things grow, Geological wonders and a winter snow. Childhood dreams from a library book, Grizzly bears waiting if you take a look. [Spoken] 6. Patagonia, Argentina & Chile [Sung] Southern Andes where the flat steppes meet, Borders of the ocean where the currents compete. By land through the woods or a cruise through the cold, Glacier landscapes waiting to unfold. [Spoken] 5. Taj Mahal, India [Sung] White marble tribute to a love so deep, In the Golden Triangle where the ancient kings sleep. Agra, Jaipur, Delhi in line, An architectural wonder frozen in time. [Spoken] 4. Angkor Wat, Cambodia [Sung] The biggest temple that the world has seen, Reclaimed by the roots and the jungle green. Stone-carved faces watching through the trees, Moving like a ghost on a tropical breeze. [Spoken] 3. Trans-Siberian Railway, Russia [Sung] Nine-thousand kilometers, Europe to the East, A seven-day journey on a steel-wheeled beast. From Moscow’s lights to the Japan Sea coast, The longest active rhythm that the world can boast. [Spoken] 2. Victoria Falls, Zambia & Zimbabwe [Sung] The smoke that thunders, the water that falls, Africa’s heartbeat echoing through the walls. Zambezi river rushing down to the sea, A misty white column of pure energy. [Build-up: Snare roll intensifies] [Spoken] 1. Caño Cristales, Colombia [Sung] Liquid rainbow in the ancient stone, A crystal-clear river with a style of its own. Red aquatic plants blooming under the sun, Take a boat, take a flight, now the journey is done. [The Drop] [The Break: Honorable Mentions] [The beat strips back to a minimal, pulsing synth loop as these names are quickly chanted in rhythm] Cliffs of Dover (UK) Bora Bora (Polynesia) Galápagos (Ecuador) Hawái (USA) Lake Baikal (Russia) Plitvice Lakes (Croatia) Legoland (Denmark) Machu Picchu (Peru) Pyramids of Giza (Egypt) Serengeti (Tanzania & Kenya)... [Outro: Fade out with the kick drum]
