Which of the first three albums of Enigma is the best ?? After the shock of the first, my preference goes to "the King is dead, long live the King," which in my opinion would be the most successful. But "The cross of changes" is an excellent album, and can only be very warmly recommended to people who have been attracted from the beginning by this group. It should be noted that "The cross of changes" is not the same character "relaxing" than the first and is the most "energetic" (some passages are even almost aggressive but well fed) see more "rock" (relatively speaking) and that it brings, by its vocal samples, plus a dimension "ethnic music" that was absent from the first game and will resume on the troisème into a kind of ideal synthesis of both genres. By cons, it keeps most of the other two: the emotion! And there you will not be disappointed ...
