Armin van Buuren (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɑr.mɪn vɑn ˈby.rə(n)]), OON (born 25 December 1976 in Leiden, Netherlands) is a Dutch trance producer and DJ. Between 2007 and 2010, he was voted number one in DJ Magazine's annual top 100 list of the most popular DJs. In the 2011 list, he ranked in second place. Since 2001, Van Buuren has hosted a weekly radio show called A State of Trance, which claims to have around 15 million weekly listeners in 26 countries, which would make it one of the most listened-to radio shows in the world. His 2008 studio album, Imagine, entered the Dutch album chart at #1, a first for a dance music artist in Dutch music history.
Armin van Buuren was born in Leiden, Netherlands on 25 December 1976, but grew up in Koudekerk aan den Rijn. Van Buuren started making music when he was 14.[citation needed] He was inspired by French electronic music composer, Jean Michel Jarre, and wished to become a great electronic music composer like Jarre.[citation needed]
He finished high school at the Stedelijk Gymnasium Leiden in 1995, and left for college to study law at Leiden University. While studying law, Van Buuren's interest for making music blossomed, and he began working as a DJ in a local club called Nexus. As his musical career began to take off, he put his law degree on hold, although he did return to finish law school in 2003.
Staring from the hills down to the valleys
I see falling leaves, streaming light changes their colours
Sun is shining bright through my unsteady mind
Just the eagle in the sky is still flying high above my head
Clear water is flowing away
Cold river is stlill changing
Sadness alternates hapiness
Memories are fading
Rain is falling from the sky
Tears are dripping from your eyes
Then they will dry and fall again
You can feel the wind in your hair
Through the misty window I can see
Falling flakes of snow onto the ground
Atumn is gone again, winter stands before my eyes
In all the motions I can see
All those signs, you give to me
Nothing can be stopped for a while
Hear the cry of a little child
Hear the lament of an old men
Both of them have to die - once again
Words of a sad song you can sing
Then when you end, you can begin
Tenthousand times from begining - again
Let me touch the river, which is flowing seemingly slowly around
I wanted to try to break all those unknown bounds
To stay in a moment, try to stop the time
Please I believe it can be at least for a short while
Sound of murmur seas, waves of running time
Sounds through galaxies, we are drifting around the Sun
Wrinkles on our faces grow with each second
( You )can't wash away all traces of age from all around
Moments of clarity fills my clearless, blinded mind
I believe I can trust at least for a short while
(But) my hope is going on I can't see you and your cry
is resounding through silence, dancing on the point high above
Clouds in the sky are changing their shapeless shapes
going astray in the night, apearing in white daylight
Power of the fight, causes the evil war
Love bring us peace, suddenly it's after the storm
Echoes of the past are crossing the way of doom
Hearts inside each of us, yearning, breaking every rule
Flames are burning future, all is seems so cruel
