I want to meet the people who are listening to this type of music.
This music is evoking millions of emotions in me.
watch deadwing dork then, i came here from his stream abt shane dawson :')
This music describes the darkest moments of my life. She sees inside my soul. Twenty two years ago.
Yeah this song is like the sound chills make when you listen to a really good song.
@@shrekshrek4755 Shane dawson.....
UA-cam led me here based on other music I listen to. You have to be willing to wander to find great art. The Music Industry doesn’t care to lead you there. I’m so glad I found this.
I love the haunting undertone that it has. It makes for a beautiful mixture between beauty and a hint of unease.
Greyard white I agree with you! It starts very mystical and joyous even, then it becomes slightly haunting with the screeching of the violin I believe? Then it transitions into a more positive ending. I love this track a lot
That's the point of the violins lol
it kind of bothers me, in a good way...although at times it reminds me of construction sounds.
This makes me imagine a little animation of a little girl and her becoming friends with a little shadow cat on her walk and playing in a field. The little cat hopping from shadow to shadow and playing with her. The little shadow cat grows up with her and protects her from the dangerous shadow monster but as time goes on, he becomes weaker and knows he can’t keep protecting her. He still tries to protect her but the shadow creature gets to her. She is slowly being drained of life and becomes a depressed shell walking through the hallways of her school. The little shadow cat does all he can but just as the creature lets the girl go, it breaks the shadow cat and he is absorbed into the natural shadows. She never saw him again but she sometimes think she’s being watched by a set of familiar eyes or out of the corner, sees the swish of a tail go behind a tree. She only wished she knew why she didn’t see him anymore
This would be a good animation
That's brilliant. Are you a writer? I would love to read if you have more written. Xoxo.
That was absolutely lovely, thank you for that
I am only 13 and I aspire to be as great as a writer like you just randomly on yt videos. your story is amazing and I love it so much!
@Evangeline Babilonia absolutely!!! Would you be posting it online? and if so, tag me please????
Idk why people are saying that it is heartbreaking, or that there is a pain in it. For me it is like when you find small flower and trying not to break it while going..
It is good, but it does exist something better, mythical side of the music, just listen ua-cam.com/video/BxFw_iukKT0/v-deo.html
She said that this song is about a friend of her that died. I can hear a lot of sadness especially from around 2:21.
thanks dark for letting me know ppl like this wonderful woman
Dark featured this song? I forgot where...
Fué mucho más emocionante conocerla desde antes de la serie y emocionarse cuando la pusieron en la banda sonora. Fué genial, cuando la escuché en aquel capítulo, incluso canté. 😅 que bueno que la hayas encontrado. 😊👍🏻
@@RendyRuban No it was "familiar" featured on it. But it allowed ppl like me to be introduced to Agnes
who's dark
@@fushiyun 'Dark' is Netflix series.
At 3AM this morning, my tablet decided to spontaneously play this song. Although I love Agnes Obel, this can be a little unsettling out of the blue in the middle of the night.... I hope it happens again.
Listen to this only at night lol
This sounds like a song to play as you drift to sleep.
How can I tell this genre?
I think it is just Agnes Obel’s genre....
I can’t speak English well... but
I want to write here just “I love her music!”
there wil be no more genres soon lets make a world without limits
한국인 ㅎㅇ
When a style, due to its intensity, spreads, it becomes a genre
. I "smell" in her style traces of romanticism and Bartok, with a pinch of oriental/minimalist atmospheres. For sure, her style is becoming a genre...
It's an ancient, soft Nordic/Germanic sound that makes you imagine the trees, ocean and nature.
I don't know specifically either. But perhaps between "Folk", "Indie", "Classic". Or a combination of these. Not sure if Mellow and Dark a genre either but people would surely put this into Dark and Mellow category should they make a playlist out of it...
i totally see this song being in a movie, like a flashback scene : the main characters remembers their childhood, when they were playing in the fields with their friends. i see the kids running around near to a cottage and laughing. it feels very nostalgic and warm
this song also reminds me of the movie Amélie (one of my favorite movies)
Hey Catra. Amélie one of my favorite movies too and I agree with you
@@dilara7605 hey Ymir
i see you also like She-Ra. you have good tastes 😌
@@randomdreamer5429 I finished She-Ra few days ago and I loved it.
I agree with you about my tastes lol 😎
Ayeeeee lmaoo
I have it in my movie of telling my characters story and it’s a background of her childhood
It is as if the music sees the chaos inside of us, talks to it and understands it like no one else.
I love listening to Agnes Obel while I'm reading a book :)
a girl that i have a crush on at the moment has shared this song and i guess i like her even more now
Did it work out?
@@prestockingz112 we hung out for a year with ups and downs, but she kept distance and was afraid of commitment, so i got tired and heartbroken of trying and stopped; after which she realized she really wanted me back but i couldn't trust her anymore, even though i still loved her. so no happy ending for anyone
i still keep having dreams about her often
@@seriouslyWeird dang man I'm sorry
@@seriouslyWeird im sorry to hear, good luck on your life adventures from here onward
I love that his song is so delicate and softly beautiful specially at the very begining like finding a mystical garden, but somehow haunting like a mansion with sad and lost ghosts (specially at 2:22). And then it's a mix of soft beauty and sadness at the end.
I got myself a pair of expensive earbuds, and the fact that I can now even hear the sound of the piano keys hitting down in full detail is making me so happy
I love the kind of emotion it makes me feel.
Something profund, nostalgic about my childhood.
But also something much much older.
Haunting, that only an old abandonned house might know.
Kinda make me think about the Other Mother and the corridor in Coraline.
The middle section gets me every time. It's like the whole piece becomes separate with beautiful tones running 'side-by-side' with a more haunted score. As if it were bipolar. She is a true genius.
I was introduced to Agnes Obel several years ago, and was captivated by her hauntingly beautiful music. She transports me to a time, out of time. Somewhere ethereal and tranquil, yet very much Grimm's Faerie Tales. If you are a fan of Anne Rice, give The Mayfair Witches read while listening to Agnes Obel.
I am not here for Dark.
I am here only for Agnes ❤️
When you are not appriciated by anyone but this song is their for you
Gives me comfort
Thanks you Agnes.
When you realise that you have no one who is kind to you in this world , not even your parents, friends, teacher, dogs, people but you still surviving
Such beautiful music ... it is dark, somewhat sad, and yet soothing ...
3:16 best part
This song brings such a beautiful image into my mind.
0:09 I imagine a girl, in a snowy forest.
0:25 She spins around in circles in the center of a forest clearing, staring up at the trees as the leaves overhead form shapes, the snowflakes falling around her. Her dress is as white as snow, with ivory skin, green eyes, and such white-ish blonde hair that it almost looks ghostly. 0:55 The innocence of the unknown, not knowing what could be lurking in the shadows, in the darkest corners of the forest. Unaware of winter's harshness. 2:06 She is clueless, blissfully unaware of the potential danger. 2:32 A dangerous form approaches, and she senses the danger, remembering what her mother once told her about the woods. She never thought they were true. 3:08 that fear leaves as she sees a wolf, beautiful and graceful, it beckons her, calling her 3:16 She runs, captivated by the enchanting beauty of a furred creature, slipping past her, a wolf with fur as white as snow and eyes as green as fresh spring grass. They run together, sharing an unforgettable moment, her legs carrying her as far and fast as she can go. Past the trees, snowy streams with crystal waters, the fresh, cold air, piercing her lungs. The bark of each tree sinking her deeper into this dream, the true beauty of a forest untouched. 4:50 She realizes she must say her goodbyes, and her feet stop her at the edge of the forest. 5:10 For a final time, the wolf turns back to face the girl, eyes meeting as a silent farewell, and like a fine mist, fades into the distance, becoming one with the static of snow falling.
i don't know why this brought tears in my eyes...
while listening, i imagine that a little girl, wearing a white frock planted a tree. it was an evening, the sun was on the horizon, the sun rays fell on her golden hairs making them glitter. she planted it and her parents were standing beside her. smiling, looking at their little angel. after keeping the plant in place she looked up and smiled at her parents. her father watered that plant. her mother standing beside and smiling. days past and she grew up. she went to school passed her college and university, her parents always caring her, let her flew like a butterfly, beautifully in her grace. she passed her higher degrees and went far from her parents. she didn't want to leave them, but she had too, because she loved her parents more than she could show. years passed, she became a shining star with every step of her life. one day, she knew, her parents passed away. far, far away where she can not reach. she became very disheartened, very very sad. it became hard to carry on for her, she went back to her little home, where she left her parents, the house, tables, chairs and everything was on place like it should be, nothing changed but her parents emptiness could never be replaced. with tears in her eyes, she looked outside the window, that field.
like that very day, it was an ordinary evening, she walked in the field, near the tree that she planted once. she looked up. that little plant had become so tall and it wore beautiful green leaves all over. the golden rays of the sun making the leaves look beautiful than glittering sapphires. gentle breeze blew and the leaves sang along. two brown leaves fell on her head to her shoulder. as if, embracing her, like, her parents are holding her shoulders and saying they didn't go anywhere. they're always with her. as if they're telling her, "we are proud of you our angel, do not let your sadness get to you". she kneeled down in front of the tree and looked straight to the glistening sky. i must not break, because i know, my parents are always with me, in me, in my vein and in the deepest of my heart. they are here, with me, watching me, smiling at me.
she thought to herself, looked at the sky smiling with a blurry vision.
i made up this story, i love my parents a lot, they are seperated, no they don't love me a lot, but i love them more than i know.
Listening. Just listening, what a joy it is.
this really helped me calm while i was having a little anxiety attack
thank you🤍
Isn't it incredible how music can calm us amidst an attack like that? That's when you know an artist may have just saved your life. Though, I do sincerely hope you're doing a little better since that attack. Those are not fun and I know from experience. Deep breaths, ground yourself, and music are the best cures (I've found) for that.
God bless u
I thought I want to shut my eyes and let my mind go wild while listening to this one particularly from Agnes obel.
I saw i was 10, in a magical garden, lying down a big, gigantic tree, the air is filled with fireflies, it's a sumer night with the common lovely summer night breezes.
I was lonely again!
Then after some nights, a nice boy came around and played with me, one day and the second and the third and many days to come.
Then one day he showed me a hidden part of the garden, where there lies a big torii -for those who don't know torii, it's a Japanese gate usually red and marks the entrance to a temple or spiritual places in Japan, it will pop up into your mind immediately if you watch anime-.
Anyways to enter the hidden garden, you should pass the torii, i did and so did he.
As soon as we get inside, he inflated to an enormous monster that concealed the horrizon, he told me he was lonely in this garden forever and now that this loneliness came to an end with my presence, he shall forever lock me in here. Then i remembered all the nice time we had together with disappointed and disbelief.
Then as days passed away, i got determined not to be his gratitude's prisoner, that i can both befriend him and still have my own freedom. That's when I planned for my escape and that's also when I looked back at our memories with happy nostalgia. I had a friend and I will continue to have one. I'm not to be sorry for that.
You guys tell me what you saw if you tried it, it's really awesome and the song is so much engaging :"D
Thank you!! I thought I’m the only one who falls into such deep imagery with songs such as this! This is why I love Agnes Obel so much!! When I hear her songs and close my eyes, I go to places and I explore and wonder around. Sometimes I’m lost in a huge never ending forest, sometimes in a very old abandoned house . There’s this eerie and haunting vibe I get from this song! It’s so peaceful too. And what you wrote, I can totally imagine it as well while I listen to this piece 🎵
You have a very beautiful imagination dear ❤️
This is one of the best pieces of art I've listened to in my entire life
I feel in a different universe while listening that even though it does not include any words in it. That's how Agnes hits guys, the magic of music and her style.
Hearing this song makes me think of a montage of the most iconic ballroom dancing scenes in movie history.
Love! You can feel Satie's influence 😊
Gymnopedies
Yes, that sweet sound...
👌💖
combined with philip glass
So beautiful, yet unsettling
Beautiful, truly amazing. Tinged with longing and sadness of sorts. Came across this on Insta, when a polar bear plunges into icy waters
it's crazy how hearing agnes obel song's first notes makes me comfortable
thanks, your art saves
Like walking through a story of someone in some tale long ago... Love this music piece!
This song is so powerful and beautiful it literally has taken on the embodiment of my depression. I promise that is a good thing!
This makes me imagine like I'm lost in a forest and the sun is so bright, the sun rays are beautiful and everywhere. I'm running looking for a way to escape this maze of trees and I almost lost my hope to find a way out, I wanted to give up but then a wolf find me a white one he just wanted to help me and give me the little hope I needed that there's always a way, he started running and I followed him while running as fast as i can to keep up with him and then he disappeared but i look up and i found myself out of the forest. I'm not lost anymore, I am free.
But something inside me wanted to be in the wild, to be lost alone. I keept thinking on my way home about the wolf and how magical the forest looks and feels ✨
There's so much pain in it.
Because of this song, i travelled to my home village, it is perfect ♥️
when I hear this song I think of a little boy who's in the forest, and he sees little cute creatures. over the time they start to disappear as he continues thru the forest. then he starts seeing scarier looking creatures. he gets a little frightened and starts speed walking through the forest. he starts to see even more glowing eyes and shadows and gets even more frightened. he's starts running. then, he reaches the end of the forest. the stop of the shadows. he takes a break under a tree not too far from the forest. he begins to miss the creatures, so he went back to the front of the forest. he sat there, admiring the beauty of the entirety of the life and nature. he walked back into the forest without realizing he had. the showdows came back, hungry. they got close to his face qnd then stopped. he tamed the shadows.
the end lolz idk if this is my best writing but it sure is a good story!
I cant stop thinking about a love story between a werewolf and a princess for some reason. Its so easy to get inspired by such a masterpiece ^^ Its still rough and more of an concept... I still hope there is at least one soul that likes my written lines ♡
Smiling, she wandered through the woods, happy and full of expectation. The maiden of royal blood wandered over hill and dale to finally be with her lover. Down the narrow winding paths she had stolen herself from the castle. And she enjoyed the freedom that spread before her. The evergreen of the forest, the singing of the birds and the sunshine falling through the foliage. It was like she was in a fairy tale. Her fairy tale.
And when she left the forest and looked at the golden fields in the light of the midday sun, her heart became warm. Her dear farmers boy. Oh how much she missed him. She hurriedly jumped over fences, ran quickly past some of the villagers and finally threw herself into her lover's arms. She had been waiting for this moment for so long.
But her fiancé, to whom she was promised, learned of her secret.
Gripped by anger and jealousy, he chased the girl deep, deep into the heart of the forest that surrounded the castle. But her lover wasn't far! He hurried and hurried to her as quickly as his legs could carry him. Hopefully it wasn't too late! But when he reached the heart of the forest, his own shattered and the forest itself seemed to die with her. Fear flooded him when he took her hand in his and she felt the coldness of her body. There was a small glimmer of hope. But could he really expect her to go trough this? Could he dare? He had to try! He wouldn't give her up. With tears in his eyes, he brushed her hair away and bent down to share his gift with her. Endless seconds passed before she opened her eyes. Amber-colored and warmer than the light of the sun ever could be, they glittered in the night. And they kissed. Now they were free. Free and together.
Full of Joy and life, the two wolves hunted through the moonlit forest. The heart light and the sorrow forgotten.
And when they danced in the light of the rising morning sun under the crown of a mighty oak, they swore to one another always to be loyal to one another and to live their lives together. Forever.
Days, weeks and years passed through the country and if you believe the murmur of the village, the unequal couple still loves each other today, as sincere and deeply as on the first day.
This is probably my favorite instrumental of yours.
Quietly beautiful..!
I love the unsettling beauty of this music. This music opens doors to unattainable worlds.
sounds sad and joyful at the same time. Absolutely beautiful
I love this sooo much
Elle poétise un souvenir de jeunesse: je me vois rigoler avec mes amis en jouant lors d'une fin de journée en été, à la campagne... je pars dans mes souvenir et une larme de bonheur survient.... Merci Agnes
Χαρμολύπη ....της ζωής και του θανάτου ....κάθε μέρα γιορτή κ κηδεία ....νίκη και ήττα ....αιώνια ....και πάντα τώρα .
thats the very representation of love something haunting sometimes scary but beautiful and worthwile to admire and care for.
This is one of my very favorite pieces of music ever.
If I heard this in Coraline, I wouldn't be surprised. The song has that really unsettling and melancholy tune to it, just like in Coraline. But this is just my opinion. :))
(Also, if some of you don't know, Coraline is a dark fantasy horror film about a girl who finds a secret door in her new apartment that leads to "another world". If you haven't watched it yet, I recommend you do, it's a really great movie and shaped part of my childhood.)
I love this song, like a poem of the notes that brought me to my little child
Staring at this album
This is lovely.
bu şarkı bana anadilimde dahi tarif edemeyceğim duygular yaşattırıyor.sanki insanüstü varlıklar tarafından bestelenmiş gibi.tek kelimeyle muazzam
Sevdiğin biriyle geçirdiğin bütün o güzel zamanlardan kalan anıları hatırla, fotoğraf albümünün sayfalarında gezinir gibi tek tek, adım adım. Her adımda özleminin arttığını, onu görmek için gittikçe dayanılmaz bir hissin benliğine hastalık gibi yayıldığını hayal et. Özleminin doruğunda birden onu kaybettiğini hatırla. Bir daha göremeyeceğin gerçeğiyle sarsıl. Boğazının yavaş yavaş düğümlendiğini, gözlerinin yaş akıtmak için yanıp batmaya başladığını hisset, olduğun yere yıkıl ve sessizce ağla.
Burada olmanız çok özel...
Omg new !
Love this😻
Wonderful!
So beautiful
Love this song so much. It makes flowers bloom in my head.
I love your music, Agnes! It's pure magic! What a deep soul it must take to produce music like this...

Yours songs make me cry and make me happy in the same time
Listening to it while being lost or walking in the forest just feels magical

That was absolutely wonderful. It's rare to find music like this these days. Thank you so much for sharing that with us!

Magical..thank you.
the desperation of never hitting rock bottom... and then putting your hands on the ground and get to rising again
I'm afraid I might not have the strength to rise again. :'(
Isso não é uma música, é uma obra de arte 💕
Una de mis favoritas
yo amo la canción the curse

Her channel is a writer's paradise.

Aww Ginat
This is beautiful
this song is strangely youthful.

Linda.
Music for a lovely dark waltz .... Let us wear black and dance very closely under an autumn moon.
This sounds like something from a movie...And I LOVE IT❤
I'm in love with this song
I love this song. 🙏
Isso é maravilhoso.
3:15 The MAGIC sound… So sweeeeeet… Love it 👍👍👍
Have you ever been wandering by yourself through a park or a forest as a child while camping or during a family vacation, and suddenly you don't know where you are, it's getting dark, the wind feels cold and you slowly realize you are completely lost and no one could hear you scream from here? that's exactly what 2:06 - 3:08 feels like to me
