Breathe (Télépopmusik song)

"Breathe" is the title of the debut single by the French dance music group Télépopmusik. It features guest vocals by singer Angela McCluskey and appears on the group's 2001 album Genetic World.

Released as a single throughout 2002, "Breathe" reached #42 on the UK Singles Chart in March of that year. The single was released late in the year in the US, and it reached its peak chart positions on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart (#9) and the Hot 100 chart (#78) in February 2003.

"Breathe" was nominated for a Grammy Award in the category Best Dance Recording at the ceremony held in February 2004, losing out to "Come into My World" by Kylie Minogue.

The song was reviewed favorably by Chris Long at the BBC, who described McCluskey's vocals as "breathless" and said the single was "a deliciously silky track that lolls by a holiday pool and enjoys the sunshine."

"Breathe" was featured in an advertising campaign by the automobile company Mitsubishi in 2003 to promote its Outlander model, and in the UK by Peugeot in 2002 to promote the 307. "Breathe" was also featured in the advertising campaign by Visa Europe in their "Love Every Day" campaign.

Zaraï

Zaraï was a town in the Roman province of Numidia. Actually it is called Aïn Oulmene, in what is now Algeria.

History

Zarai is mentioned in the Itinerarium Antonini, 35, and in the Tabula Peutingeriana. Ptolemy calls it Zaratha, and wrongly places it in Mauretania Caesariensis.

It is probably the Zaratha of Apuleius. These two forms and the term "Zaraitani" found in an inscription seem to indicate that the name Zaraï which appears on another inscription must have lost a final letter.

Zarai was protected -after emperor Hadrian started the construction of a wall similar to the one with his name in Roman Britannia- by one of the sections of the Fossatum Africae: the Hodna or Bou Taleb section. This section begins near the north-east slopes of the Hodna Mountains, heads south following the foothills then east towards Zaraï, then doubles back westward to enclose the eastern end of the Hodna mountains, standing between them and the Roman settlements of Cellas and Macri. The length of this segment is about 100 km. It probably criss-crossed the ancient border between Numidia and Mauretania Sitifensis.

Zara (given name)

Zara is a feminine given name.

It is the English form of the name Zaïre, the central character of Voltaire's 1732 play Zaïre (The Tragedy of Zara). Voltaire may have been influenced by the Arabic name Zahra.

Its popularity may be influenced by the naming of Princess Anne's daughter Zara Phillips in 1981, and the Spanish fashion store Zara.

Another derivation, unrelated to the above, is the Bulgarian name Zara (Зара) which is a diminutive of Zaharina or Zaharinka.
