Mary Lyrics:
Heaven hid her face as we fell down
Age old habits echoed in the ground
One would sing and one would hold me down
They might listen if I make no sound
Oh I know this
From my high school heart
That nothing is over
From a touch it will begin
Wide on the sky
In my house the silence rang so loud
Under doorways, through the hallway down
Waiting for the secret to grow out
Oh what we do when no one is around
Oh I know this
From my high school heart
That nothing is over
From a touch it will begin
Wide on the sky
In the dark I hear you sing
Fingers move and chords they ring
Be the witness of my shame
Swaying in the summer rain
Feathers falling from your wing
In the dark I hear you sing
#AgnesObel #CitizenOfGlass #Piano
Nothing gets out of my head that this song was written by James for Mary in Silent Hill 2. Incredible!
The change of the melody at 3.03 is giving me the chills every time. What an artist!
Watersnakes II Literally the best part
It's wonderfully beautiful ! What a song !
So true about the change. So beautiful it brings tears, for what I don't know.
I love Agnes. I was going to see her in Toronto but the show was cancel. Lord she plays piano with her left hand. She is from another planet. I love her from my planet to Jupiter and back.❤️❤️🌹🌹
"In the dark I hear you sing."
Brilliantly beautiful.
if my life was a movie this song should play when I die...
the best fade-out....ever!
So true. Pure beauty
The album "Citizen of Glass" is an empathic journey that begins with a subtle presence gently absorbing ones essence, to cradle the spark of life at the core of ones being. The album holds the listener in a healing matrix well into the moments after the soft angelic tones of Agnes Obal’s voice slowly echoes into far off silence. I have the LP on repeat. The entire album is simply magical and pleases the senses like no other I have heard. An empathic experience not to be missed ~ World United Music - Favorite track: Mary.
it's true...
It's amazing how a simple change to the key/melody at 3:02 divides the song into two parts that together creates the most
mesmerizing chilling feel
One of my favorite new songs. I've been listening to the new album on repeat for days.
The melody at 3:02... Is one of the most beautiful end for an album e-ver !
Deeply agree with you 💞
yes, somehow makes think of someone floating off forever alone into space. Like when the astronaut dies in the Martian.
I have been captivated by this artist after only listening to 'The Curse' once. Now I listen to her music and watch live videos often. Very talented individual, in fact, mesmerizing music and performances.
100 percent agree!!!
Thank you for all the music you make Agnes, just know you are helping someone through brutally unspeakable grief, in my dark world, the sound of your music is a much needed little light.
the new album really captures the mood of late Autumn and early winter. A feeling of beautiful melancholy around her spidery lyrics.
I feel the same way. I picture myself in my best outfit walking as the leaves fall.
Keith Bate. I love Acarid WolfgangSpider, looking at me with her beautiful facette Eyelashes whiping my brows, jumping when I take to much to the trays. love Mosaicism spatial tempus
I have no idea what this song is about but it doesn't matter. It's hypnotic.
The lyrics are always open for interpretation, but I believe they might be about some form of abuse... I might be wrong.
I see it more as a forbidden love
it sounds like it is a song about angels falling
I suddenly porth something, when the melody ends, it is as defeaning ours loaded ego'es, psychology would never points something exactly like that, it is blood to blood the Serpent Element
@@luisalmeida1391 I do completely agree
Untouched by greedy modern influence and totally pure. Haunting and full of grace
This is a beautiful song which deliver some deep meanings about the loss of privacy.
..che brano meraviglioso! É di una dolcezza e di una delicatezza indescrivibile! Lo amo! Agnes...thank you for this wonderful gift!
Greatest song I've ever heard in my life.
There is great beauty in the sadness of this song, and it even gets better in the second half when the melody changes, and fades away in the end.
Her voice is so hauntingly beautiful, truly like no other. I can't wait to hear her live.
This song is perfect. Echoes sound like to be flying to heaven.
Completely agree. 💚
That outro... so captivating. Beautiful song, amazing production. I feel like I'm sitting inside the piano she's playing...
Thank you.
Thank you so much, I am very grateful for this, what a beautiful soul.
Thank you.
De longe uma das minhas artistas preferidas. A forma como ela sabe trabalhar o instrumental e o seu vocal deixa tudo tão indescritível. 🤍
A really underrated artist, but I regognize her talent, and that's sufficient to me
I find her art mystical and I am grateful I found out about her.
she got many awards. don't worry. so happy for her.
intelligent music always underrated, it's okay.
Too me too
I wouldn't call Agnes' work underrated just because she's not mainstream. She's recognized by the right audience. I know this comment is from 4 years ago, and there was no DARK yet, and well, that helped a lot, right? Which makes me understand that great talent requires means to reach the audiences.
I used to think there was no good music made on the last decade. If it wasn’t for her I might still believe that. One of the best of all time imho.
We come to this world. What should we do here? Well, at least, everyone should leave something beautiful, before he dissappears again.....Just like this wonderful artist! Thank you Agnes so much for this incredible beauty!!!
I’m wondering about those 82 people who disliked this masterpiece. Are they even human?
They have no soul.
I love it. It makes me dreaming.
I cannot stop listening to this....
OHMEGOSH I just heard this for the first time last night and it took me all this time to discover who it is and what the song is called - so hauntingly beautiful and magnetic. It sucks you in, the harmonies and just divine. Oh I cannot wait to listen to more.
This is the best thing I've listened to.
Your music inspires me a lot.
Huge greetings from Russia.🙂❤🖐
That fadeout... Is the most eerily beautiful detail i have ever heard in a song. And for it to be the end of "Citizen of Glass"...
... simply touch of genius, Agnes
Heaven hid her face as we fell down
Age old habits echoed in the ground
One would sing and one would hold me down
They might listen if I make no sound
Oh I know this
From my high school heart
That nothing is over
From a touch it will begin
Wide on the sky
In my house the silence rang so loud
Under doorways, through the hallway down
Waiting for the secret to grow out
Oh what we do when no one is around
Oh I know this
From my high school heart
That nothing is over
From a touch it will begin
Wide on the sky
In the dark I hear you sing
Fingers move and chords they ring
Be the witness of my shame
Swaying in the summer rain
Feathers falling from your wing
In the dark I hear you sing
Such a beautiful song, I'm in love with it, already. Thank you so much for the lyrics.
Beautiful indeed.
YES!
OH MA GAH!!
so beautiful
honestly, I hear "Be the witness of my shape" ...
She has such a pretty voice! Love!
love the haunting keys
I`m moved. Agnes Obel is such a beautiful soul, it shows in her music.
I absolutely cannot get over this woman's hauntingly mystifying work, just wow ❤
Her voice is so calming
I listen to her songs whenever I feel i want to change
Thanks Agnes your songs motivates me to do more in life

This is one of the most perfectly beautiful pieces of music I've heard in years. Alters me completely... hugely personal already :)
She's amazing.
The ending chorus of this song echoes chasms of creative bliss throughout the mind.
This woman has a gift from god if you ask me
Hayatımda dinlediğim en güzel parçalardan birisi. Melodisi çok farklı ve değişik. Sanki seni farklı bir yere götürüyor. Sanki melodilerle kendi betimlediği ütopik dünyasını anlatıyor. Neredeyse her gün dinliyorum.
Mühteşem hiç keşfedilmemiş bir dünya...
Like Low, Lisa gerrard the National and London Grammar, Agnes shows that great music exists in our era .
@keithbate I'm sure that rhymed
I love Lisa Gerrard's music so much!! I don't know know how to describe it. Its like how when you listen to artist like Enya, Lisa Gerrard and Agnes Obel their vocals blend so well into the music like an echo, very atmospheric echo. Idk if this is a good description or not. 😌
daqui da minha favelinha fico o dia todo ouvindo agnes obel.
❤
Everything coming out of Scandinavia is gold right now... Aurora, Susanne Sundfør, Agnes Obel, etc. Incredible!
💚
pure from heaven
Brilliant
cannot stop listening to her angelic voice..
Just discovered this song. Tears of inspiration in my eyes. Thank you
Heavenly. Agnes, master of great endings.
My fav track of 2016 from my fav album
seeing her live in Birmingham on Tuesday (29.11.16) can't wait !!
I've been sharing this beautiful song with friends. It also fits in well with my progressive rock playlist on the World United Music blog.
This is one of my favorite songs by her.
Wooow what a Beautiful music
THIS should have been the ending song of Dark season 3.
Fits just perfect ..
YES OMG
no
Tô amando essa cantora.
Thank you, Our Lady of Good Help, for everything.
❤️
Love her new album, such a talented artist, love from Indonesia!
Really glad banyak dari indonesia yang suka agnes obel❤️
Pure emotion💯😔
Wonderful song!
Thank you, Agnes.
heavenly beautiful
Essa mulher, meu Deus... Que mulher! ❤
Fabulous
I love all of your music. It's lovely. :)
Da vontade de morar nas músicas da Agnes ❤️
poésie et sensibilité d'une mélodie inspirée des cycles de composition ternaire, très sobre sur le plan musical, très mélancolique, j'adore.
Michel Vassail surtout la partie à 3min que mais alors...... pffff je trouve Sublimisse ! Mystique à 20000% j'adore de dingue cette nana !
Comme d'habitude Agnès arrive à me donner des frissons avec ses mélodies mais un mais se pose...Je ne comprends pas les paroles.Si vous êtes bilingues auriez vous l'amabilité de me traduire en partie cette chanson ou au moins de m'en faire le résumé ?
@@irisrarete22 Bonjour, avez vous toujours besoin d'une traduction pour ces paroles ? je peux m'en charger !
The main things I listen to are melodic death metal and Agnes Obel.
same
lovely x
Thank you very deeply for that.
i cant help but feel that in the ending i myself am fading away rather than the music does
I only discovered this angel named Agnes Obel barely over a week past... now, as soon as one of her songs plays from this mix (London Grammar - Rooting For You (Live)), I automatically click the 'thumb up'... There hasn't been a song that I would even advance past, and not a single one I would consider un-clicking the 'thumb up.' They are all magical and mesmerizing. By the way, if you haven't listened to London Grammar, give 'em an ear. They, too, I found less than two weeks ago. Very different over all than Agnes but very good listening.
Recentrly, I have discovered something new oh my Gosh, I love it ua-cam.com/video/BxFw_iukKT0/v-deo.html
The most beautiful that track is 💚
Her best album in my opinion (even if Philarmonics and Aventine are also amazing)
Any thoughts about her newest album, myopia?
@@rahmanhakim1 I love the last one also, a few tracks mostly, but now if she's doing a new one after that, I'm expecting to be more surprised by the approach :)
I love all of them, brilliantly beautiful ❤️
SOOO INTENSE 🤲😯🤲🌹🎶
Agnes, in the dark I hear you sing.
this is so beautiful ..
Beautiful
Incroyable...
TO APAIXONADA
Mesmerizing
such a perfect song.
Very ethereal.
I’m so curious about the inspiration for this song. “The things we do when no one is around”, “be the witness to my shame”. It’s heartbreaking.
She said this song was inspired by her friend's story
In my house the silence rang so loud
Under doorways, through the hallway down
Waiting for the secret to grow out
Oh what we do when no one is around*
I think it's a question
Beautiful, inspirational, just sends shivers throughout.. looking forward to the Birmingham gig
and me will look out for you . have a front row seat upstairs !
Keith Bate how fabulous was the gig, amazing
Yes very enjoyable and "Mary" came over very well ditto "The curse", Riverside etc.
The gig reminded me of a London Grammar gig I Saw a few years ago :
Quality songs sung beautifully (by Hannah Reid) and superb musicianship
Well done to Agnes and "her girls"
ps would have loved to have met her afterwards but it was too cold to hang around outside.
pps nice to go to a gig where everyone was trying to film the gig on their phones !!
Keith Bate yes Mary was amazing.. but tbh it all was, like angels sent to bring sounds from another ethereal otherworld... I can't stop thinking how good it was. emotionally scarred lol.. mobile phone record? nothing like that at the front thank God
I was central front row circle.Only saw twp people with mobile phones. The audience was the oldest since I saw the Zombies around 10 years ago (no mobile phones that night)
it was clear the gig was not sold out which is far more unusual these days. Live music seems to be more popular now than even 10+ years ago. Until relatively recently I always used to pay on the door. Wouldn't work nowadays !
ps Agnes surprised me with her wry sense of humour and comments. Would have loved to have seen her a few years ago in the Hare and Hounds pub (said she had played twice at that venue and really liked it)
pps Awful support (IMO) the last track seemed to last longer than war and peace (lol)
Merci pour votre très belle voix et votre talent....
I love the haunting music
We need you in New York Rockwood Music Hall 🤘🏼
however did this get to over a million views but only 5k likes? is beyond me.
Because many of those who gave her a "like" watch and listen to this over and over again
Alguém BR ama a Agnes Obel??
Eu
euu
ela é fora da curva demais, brabissima
There's a girl named Mary , i loved her but we never meant for each other , a d in this song , it describes how exactly i feel.
the ending omg…
Anyone else think a collaboration with Danny Elfman would be interesting?
I get the inspiration of a forbidden love/relationship kind of vibe from this song personally. Perhaps it's a one sided relationship, maybe it's no strings attached, maybe they come from families that forbid them to be together because they're bad for each other or are believed to be bad. Maybe someone is having an affair, hence only meeting/keeping it in the dark where no one can see them. Maybe it's a taboo kind of relationship, something not accepted by modern society.
When she sings about hearing them sing, I imagine she's talking about their voice speaking or moaning in the dark and the feathers from angel wings are their hair brushing against them. Idk.. It could be anything really. Either way it feels very solemn and sad, being guilt ridden. They sound very lonely.
I cannot believe my ears
I wonder if this song is about THE Mary. The lyrics seem to give me that impression but they are not overt. That's the sign of truly brilliant music.
Perfection! The fade out is reminiscent of the Sugar Man by Rodgriguez but in a completely different mood.
I really love you. I love your voice. I love everything you do. You are perfect . You are my love❤
That melody at 4.37 haunts me
Ses tellerine kurban olunasi 💜
❤❤❤
