- Since wingedzephyr has made their videos private I figured that I could make more to take their place:) I know that mine aren't nearly as good as wingedzephyr's but i tried:)
Song: Shalott
Artist: Emilie Autumn
Album: Opheliac
I don't own anything.
Enjoy:)
"Everyone else can watch as their dreams untie so why cant I?" is my favorite line in the song
Truly one of my favorite songs by her, all the Enchant/Ophiliac era stuff is so soo good
Listening to this while in quarantine during Covid-19 is a whole mood....
Brutal how the time goes by, listening to it now makes it feel like yesterday that I saw her live on stage... all the while it's some decade ago and the world will never get as good as it was back then.
True that
I cant believe that there are people that still listen to this in 2020 this songs are gold
Frrrrrr
Listening to this, before and after, has the same unfortunate and troublesome effect on me. I hate that I love it.
I keep coming back to this song 10 years later!
Oh, I suddenly remembered this song and how much I loved it back then. It's nice to see recent comments haha
Today in the literature lesson we discussed The Lady of Shalott, the poem this song was originally based on, so I got this song stuck in my head. Now I'm listening to it over and over again.
The turning point at 3:05 gets me every time I hear this song. Parallelism with a strong effect is always a winner in my book. It's just such a simple twist on a repeated phrase and it sums up the story progression of the song perfectly.
It's just so interesting because it's a very humbling line, but it's not like the narrative was ever about pride or hubris or anything. And really, it feels like she's accepting an answer to the entire song.
Out of all her songs I relate to this one the most, its pleasant and depressing all at the same time....
Do you find it pleasantly depressing?
+Marius Aglen yep
She is one of the few artists that truly makes me feel heavy emotion, this has become one of my favorite songs of all time!
This song was a soundtrack to my sadness for some time.
A lovely presentation, for a truly epic song and homage to the sentiments from Tennyson's work, along with her own insights and experience. She is truly a larger than life woman and a artist extraordinaire.
I haven't organically thought about Emilie Autumn since like 7th or 8th grade...glad I expanded my musical horizons, but I still do love this song
have you realise that the music is really quick! it feels like she needs to express her feelings immidiatly!....Just amazing!
I'm so happy my older sister Jessica has introduced me to Emilie Autumn and all of her amazing songs. In love her music and this song especially!
You're right, but even talking so much about death and the dellusions of life her song sometimes cheer me up, hard to explain, but 'Everyone else can watch as their dreams untie, so why can I?' gives me strenght to accept when thing go bad and move on.
It;s amazing how she just captures the character of the original poem
2000-2012: My childhood
2020: C O R O N A V I R U S
I love hyperactive melody and lyrics! and so beautiful!
I loved this as a poem and to hear her give her own rendition of it is amazing! Probably my fave EA song!
I don't know if anyone's ever read this, but it seems like the perfect song to fit the book Fallen.
the one by lauren kate?
Been looking for this song for almost a decade to no avail. Finally .
this is my favourite emilie autumn song
am i the only one who thinks this song is really REALLY reminiscent of some of tori amos' songs?? bc it's kinda tripping me out how much it sounds like tori amos, especially little earthquakes era. emilie had to have drawn inspiration from her when making this.
I think it really sounds like silent all these years
Yup, I thought it WAS tori when I first heard it, you’re def not the only one
I see lots of similarities between this and Tori, and also this and Lorena McKennitt.
Yep, this song still speaks to my soul
Freaking amazing, not just the song but the lyrics. Good job to whoever made this video! Sub!
...I can't explain why I like this song so much.....its so odd yet wonderful
its cool how much of a scene can be set in 5 seconds with just a couple of sounds (Y)
I love how she takes literature and puts a theme song to it
You know, a song based on 'The lady of Shalott' is amazing, but do you know what would be sheer perfection? A song based on 'The Raven' by Edgar Allan Poe. God, my respect to that man, he was clever and I love his stories and poems, especially that one.
+LayLyann Tarabay Irizarry (late reply I know) but have you checked out Omnia's version of the raven?
Marian Brereton No I haven't, but I might check it out later.
***** oh well, thanks
Why did I even doubt there was a song based in an inmensely popular poem?
Try 'Quoth the Raven' from Eluveitie, it's not a version of the poem but based upon it, just like this song is based upon The lady of Shalott :)
Have you heard alesana..
I LOVE the second part , it perfectly fits to so much moments in my life
I would like to do what someone did to Mama Mia and Abba's songs with Emilie Autumn's songs.
All of her albums clashing together in a psychotic truth about old-fashioned asylums and their inmates. And a story about a strong, insane girl, curious about life.
Yes. This needs to be a thing.
Thank you!
You're welcome :)
That would be amazing!
whilst listening to her music, i have come up with a storyline using the songs...
Dat profile Pic.....Whoaa. Contrast is the literal definition of what I feel at the moment.
This song is incredibly rad.
I just love this song and she looks amazing in the picture.
Have to say that I love the amazing picture Wingerzephyr had in her Shalott video... But hey, this is a great video too! 8D
thank you for introducing me to this song, if you ever find this, bud.
Love this song. Great job on the video!
Thanks for posting Toxic666angel. Love her music/lyrics.
her best song I reckon
I think so too.
She's so edgy but somehow she pulls of elegance. It's awesome(:
Code Name Albino Ikr
I have no idea why but this gives me huge Disney song vibes.. Like a Disney song but less wholesome???
Oh les souvenirs.. j'étais fan de cette femme lorsque j'étais adolescente lol.. 🥰
Listening in 2020!
Whoa...
Still listening to this today!
This is one of my favorite songs by her, I also really love "marry me" and "Rapunzel"
Random but true story; every RPG female character I build is named Emilie because of this amazing strong woman
I don't even like this lady's work much but hoooly crap what a vocal performance in this one, man this is a good track
You did a good job!
Why is she soo amazing!?!?
i accidentally clicked this video like the dumbass i am, i was aiming for a song by red.
best
mistake
ever
*two years later* badass christian rock band red? if so i am now in love with your taste in music, based on two artists lol
i love ur video! and this song!
That was beautiful
"I know he doesn't know my name and the girls are all the same to him" lol
What a sad poem. It must be awful to be locked up all the time, never be able to feel the wind or see the sky.
This song in particular definitely reminds me of Tori Amos. Love both!
Silent all these years. Their voices sound the same, sort of. I can't stop thinking it either
Some songs she recorded reminds me the style of Tori Amos and also Fiona Apple.
And that's why I love EA and her audience, they are inteligente like you :}
a handsome horse :'D
This song would be awesome if it was in the new Disney movie: Maleficent :D
Malefocent is just a live-action Sleeping Beauty, so this probably won't be in it
Nina Yamada no it wasnt in it but it would have fit into the OST
Still listening in 2021 🖤
Wow, this is probably the only song I like from an american singer... If you like this singer, you should check out some Kanon Wakeshima's songs. She may sing in japanese, but her songs are so mysterious and heart-touching, and she's awesome at playing the cello. Just in case, I looked up this song because of her XD
Indeed, I love to be on her songs.
Nice tribute to Tennyson. =)
beautiful song.
I want this tune to be played when a little before, meanwhile, and after I die.
don't listen to Snutih, or any of the other hater, I am sure you are a very beautiful young woman and what you need to understand is Emilie's beauty comes form with in her, If she was a hateful mean person her beauty in your eyes would melt away. I also think Emilie would say the same thing to you. like CaptRavenous said, If someone can't see your beauty inside and out, then they are not worth your time and nether are the trolls trying to put you down only to make themselves feel better.
Fuckin blows that the only version of this on spotify is the one dubbed over with commentary.
Thank you
Amazing! (:
Because each one is beautiful in its own way ^.~
Awesome snare
i love this song*dances to the song and im wearing a olive green dress
awesome
You're beautiful. You don't need to look like her, Emilie's Emilie. You're you. And you're beautiful just the way you are.
Love it
I often wonder how the woman who introduced me to this song is doing. Though this song is the only reason why I remember her.
n I c e. xx
I had to turn in song lyrics for a class and I chose this one... the teacher looked at me weird since all the others were like 1-direction or little wayne and I'm turning this story telling song about death
You make me happy
oh really ^^ that's cool I had no clue
omfg XD
Grell Sutcliff love your profile picture.
+Roman Levi I once showed them Akuro no oka by Dir en Grey which is first in japanese and second about a dead person talking about the past and waiting at a hill ( title actually means "Hill of Acropolis") for his love who iisnt there and with whom he obviously can't communicate because he's dead. That was in eight' grade the look of my teacher was kinda creepy xD
Because you're beautiful the way you are!
one of the songs I used to slice myself to ribbons on repeat. Vunderbar
13th like! Awesome!
Happy birthday to Emilie Autumn today!
Because a copy is never beautiful but an original can be beautiful.
Emile autum is real music!!!!
I need to do an essay on this lmao
SOOOO Kate Bush....
It seems Kate was big influence on her
Reminds me of when my man was cheating on me with a few different women. The whole time I tried to pretend I was okay shut it's impossible. Especially I was the first one there 😲 oh well that was over 7 years go
That's ur fault tbh if u knew he was cheating u should have left

So, what is it like to receive messages about how beautiful you are because you've posted a comment a year ago? Btw, I think that every girl is beautiful in her very own way :)
Piano lessons here I come.
My theme song. Ppl say i would die. My parents lock me up in the house. And theres a boy i will never be with but i love him so much....
I know this is really late but are you ok?
My 2nd favourite track on the entire Opheliac album (my 1 being "Art Of Suicide")...I just said I prefer this over Dead Is The New Alive and I Know Where You Sleep...when I say that, TAKE NOTE!
I always thought she said i'm the person one. (._.)
So what is stopping you?
She has a piercing? :3
like in all gothic music?
