What does it mean literally (Is it an Acronym?), and to you personnelly?

trance (trns)n.
1. A hypnotic, cataleptic, or ecstatic state.
2. Detachment from one's physical surroundings, as in contemplation or daydreaming.
3. A semiconscious state, as between sleeping and waking; a daze.



to me trance is great its when the music takes me away from the "normal" world and i have no worries...i think

Believe it or not my dictionary has it defined as music too

7. A type of euphoric electronic music with a hypnotic beat

I'm well chuffed with that 1

And, incase any body is wonderin what dictionary I have, its a penguin 2nd edition 1, it doesn't have page numbers but I reakon it has more than 1000.

Definition I like the most:

A state in which the soul seems to have passed out of the body into another state of being, or to be rapt into visions; an ecstasy.

To me trance is another world besides the real world
i play much better UT, when listening 2 trance than i do with normal UT music for an example.....

I love trance when I'm driving, the ride is just so smooth and enjoyable. Just pop in a good set like Oakie@Liverpool and enjoy the ride.

true true..but one better watch that pedal cause its really easy speeding up heh...

Hehe, oh yeah. Especially at night, when your all alone on the highway, coming back from a party or something. Once a banging trancer comes on, the head starts bobbin' and the foot starts pushing.

Trance for has been the part of me in everyday life. It feels like the skies seem so much bigger yet there's that strong power inside your body & soul that gives you the ecstatic feeling the bursts into happiness! If I'm sad or mad or just want to be happy I pop in a tune & everything seems to disappear behind me... Sometimes I like hard trance or mellow trance, a lot of times the slow tempo that leads into vocals & anthems that mix in with the perfect beat... I can't get enough of trance...

/// by the way I fell asleep @ a rave on the floor 'cause the DJ was playing some boring trance...wish I brought some blanket & a pillow that night ///

to be enraptured...

wow i could give you the longest answer but it end up being as long as an essay...but in short trance is music...but much more than that at the same time...i could say its a way of living, but thatd be too cliche

Trance is emotional, powerful, electronica.

the feeling of being in a trance is when you are not concious in this world, but you are absorbed in something else. (like if you were in a crowded, noisy room but all you hear and see is one thing, you are in a trance.)

just my made up shit.

The father made fetuses with flesh licking ladies / While you and your mother were asleep in the trailer park / Thunderous sparks from the dark of the stadiums / The music and medicine you needed for comforting / So make all your fat, fleshy fingers fingers to moving / And pluck all your silly strings and / Bend all your notes for me and / Soft silly music is meaningful, magical / The movements were beautiful / All in your ovaries / All of them milking with green fleshy flowers / While powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines, / Smelling of semen all under the garden / Was all you were needing when you still believed in me.

I feel as an individual that trance is just an extended moment when you stop thinking and just feel. That is what trance is to me.
