What are the words to Aria and/or Niki Nana?
A. There aren’t any real words to either song (except in Niki Nana where parts are actual English words). About Aria: The music is loosely based on the French opera from the 19th century called ‘Lakme’ by Leo Delibes, but Yanni didn’t use actual words in the song — they are vocal expressions or sounds made with singing voices. I’m aware of some the sounds seem like words — especially French words — but they aren’t… at least, probably not intentionally. About Niki Nana: Most of it is nonsense words… look on the inside of the “Tribute” CD booklet for the “lyrics.” Yes, parts are in English… and, no, the rest is not Greek or any other language. The sounds may have been influenced by one or more languages, but that is all.
