This is inspired by her friend Lou Reed who died in 2013. A friend of mine expressed to me in the final months of his life that the simplest sensations had begun to feel almost rapturous; a carer had placed a shard of ice on his tongue one day and it was such a sweet and unbelievable feeling that it caused him to weep with gratitude. He was a hardcore kind of guy and these moments were transforming the way he was seeing things. I wrote “Sliver of Ice,” remembering those words of his.
Thank you for sharing this. My daughter and I did this day and night until my mother died. We held her and told her we loved her so much in the years before she died.
@@GabriellaGracexo I was referring to Mr. Reed. Damn, Paddy's Gone is what brought me here. The emotion and passion of this amazing artist is palpable in every song! Thank you so much again for sharing this haunting work of art with us.
My twin has been a fan of Anohni for years and years and just told me about this song, and now after playing it five times in a row I'm crying!! Will, I'm a proper fan now (finally)
As a queer poet from the other side of the world, a trans feminist who also had chance to listen you alive at my city İstanbul.... I feel so lucky and happy that you turned back sharing your art with all of us. Welcome back Anohni love, Vurulduk ey Halkım, Unutma bizi...(Selda) We did not forget you at all, dear. 🔥🌀🖤🌊
If you've known a loved one like I have, on their last days of life then you would really get this song as I do. My mom's last days , all she wanted for was a cup of crushed ice. I would give her a spoonful for her relief. In the end that's all she asked for . Just reminds me of that time. that place. 33 years ago. xxoo
Saw her live last night at BAM I Brooklyn I truly believe she is not human. She is a spirit. A beautiful being that has a voice that deserves to be heard. She has a message for us all, and her message is everything we don't want to admit to ourselves about the world. ❤
The singing, song writing, melody, mood, all of it, evokes such a beautiful, peaceful and calm that words alone cannot describe. I just played this Friday early morning after a night of dancing, a friend urged me to put it on as we unwinded into the dawn. Immediately, I was taken and am still so overwhelmed by the feelings this record evokes, it's just beyond. I sometime's cannot believe and am astonished by how music and art can be so transcendent. Anhoni has gifted this world an art form that will last an eternity, while giving great honor to the lovely muse Ms. Marsha P. Johnson smiling back at us with her warm and embracing portrait - a beautiful spirit who will be celebrated by even more people some of who may have never heard of her work and legacy, because of this album.
Listening to your music now for years you are brilliantly masterful at your craft & I love your collaborators with Rufus. Thank you & greetings from Ireland.☘️
wow wow wow... I've not been this excited for an album in a while. as a transfeminine person myself, your music has always hit home. I thank you for all the music and art you have shared with the world. I love you sister
You are an angel of music, and I have been proudly simping your art for nearly two decades. Discovered your music while programming a college radio station, and you've been inspiring me ever since. ❤️
Quel bonheur d'entendre de nouvelles chansons. Can't wait to hear the album. Your voice is my absolute favorite, so distinctive and haunting. Much love and respect xoxox
Oh mon dieux l attente en valait vraiment la peine qu elle douceur dans cette voi x qui me touche toujours autant Et avec impatience j attends l album et les concerts Mes oreilles vous remerci pour votre voix
You are as beautiful as this song! I've loved the times we've met through our mutual friend. Dear one, please come back through Northern CA. Peace 2 U & ALL
The video has captivated me. It's just beautiful, your eyes communicate so much, I feel like they are speaking to me. I feel so moved deep to the core of my being. The strange overlay of the two images is haunting, mysterious, unreal...and when you stare straight into the camera I feel like you are staring into my soul and I feel seen! Oh this is so special, thank you, thank you, thank you! LOVE ❤

@@loucat2779 is that a "paddy's gone" reference? I love that song
I relate to this so much i was also a hardcore kind of guy but my experiences in life have made me a softie but also wiser

A beautiful song to remember those we've loved..those we've lost...and for those of us who feel lost inside & that includes me .
One of the most incredible voices of all time!
This isn´t just a song...this is art!
Music... is art. 🙄
Rest in peace, Lou. What a loving and honest way to honor your friend.
If ever there was an album worthy of a Grammy, this is it.
My twin has been a fan of Anohni for years and years and just told me about this song, and now after playing it five times in a row I'm crying!! Will, I'm a proper fan now (finally)
Better late than never ❤
Her music makes me cry too because I don't understand how this beauty is in our world.
I just know this album is going to be absolutely beautiful, the first two songs are simply wonderful
When your voice surfs my soul I know how sweet life is...
🌤Anonhi & the Johnsons still at Their finest Her Voice is superb Here ❤

Thank you ANOHNI….. such a beautiful SONG….. THANK YOU SO MUCH….
Saw her live last night at BAM I Brooklyn
I truly believe she is not human. She is a spirit. A beautiful being that has a voice that deserves to be heard.
She has a message for us all, and her message is everything we don't want to admit to ourselves about the world. ❤
the feel of air on the skin, shades of green, moments of ecstasy before leaving the body, we love being.
🕳️🫀🔨🥃🚬
My goodness how much more intense can a song get, sheer romanticism, a knight in shining singing armour of ardor!

Oh, and the song is equally as beautiful. I'm listening on repeat and simply cannot stop. I just need this right now.
