YES!! I may be considered an old lady at 63 , but I grew up as a child of the hippie generation… and through the 60’s, 70’s , the MTV great years and now this angel! Truly one in a billion sound!
Looking like some clear skies Have finally opened up my eyes Living in a lost time The dawning of a brand-new man So much blood on our hands King and queen of being lonely Children of the empire see That we're all lost Comes a cost walking in the labyrinth without love How much can you take? And when are you gonna be okay? Gain control of what we made Instead of being afraid Children of the empire say We're long gone In that eternal flame Trying to break away From the mess we made Oh, we don't have time anymore To be afraid We tend to live long That's why so many things go wrong People selling their young blood I guess that's the price you pay Make desire but no one wins Won't the fire burn us in Before we get a chance to love again? Children understand that they pay for their sins Seize control of what they made Before we all fade away Children of the empire wanna change 'Cause we're long gone In that eternal flame Trying to break away From the mess we made Oh, we don't have time anymore To be afraid, anymore Children of the empire know Know that they're not free even though They wanna be free We know we're not free even though We wanna be free
@@chunky2155 baroque can refer to a period in classical music (as well as art) which dated from around 1610 to 1750, baroque pop on the other hand refers to a style of rock or pop music which combines classical music elements with majestic arrangements, and ambitious pop structures. this song is an example of the latter, what with its sweeping instrumental paired with Weyes Blood’s sense of pop melody mastery
Wow , best song I’ve heard in a long long time . A beautiful combination of Joni Mitchell and The Beach Boys . Can’t get a bigger compliment than that !! Love it
This is so amazing. I needed this album. Now I'm in that dreamy headspace again as I was with her last album. I haven't listened to her in quite a while and almost forgot how much I love her.
I had the pleasure to feel you in Milan as a opener for father Jhon Misty , let me tell you this you are the best female voice i ever heard in 33 years.
I bet you hate being pigeonholed as an artist. But when I first heard you, your music reminded me of Rufus Wainwright. I don't know how you feel about that but it made me feel something. And more.
💙🌙 My favorite artist with Lana Del Rey. Perfect voices, so sweet so deep, so pure with perfect melodies, enchanting lyrics, you just have to dive into this atmosphere and wrap yourself like with a blanket and take of for space.
Love this and bought the,album. Loving it. Just listened again now and asking myself why it reminds of Midlake in parts. That's a good thing in my opinion. Love them both
I love your natural ballad voice, i thought that sound had been abandoned forever (an industry fuelled on tormented emo frailty and that operatic vocal twerking which passes for soul nowadays).
No sé si ella alguna vez imaginó que su voz y su música inundarían los corazones de personas que están a miles de kilómetros, como yo. Qué hermoso ser humano eres Natalie. Gracias gracias gracias gracias por tanto ♥️
4:48 Gives me the same chills as when Good Vibrations breaks down to just the organ.
it realy has all the vibes from beach boys, LOVE IT
This is a protest song. It's about time artists started writing them again.
I mean rappers also write them but I get what you’re saying
Check Regina Spektor's Trapper and Fourrier or even Ed Sheeran's 2step. Fine exceptions from the rule.!Kalle from Finland
This is a Star Wars song.
Natalie is that you?
@@anthonymusto3537 Haha!
This is not just a song, is poetry, pure poetry
its a song
It's a song 🤦
@@raihanrazak2743 u get it
songs are poetry
It' s a song, é uma canção: bonita!
Why am I only finding her now, I absolutely love her, binge listening to her albums, a true god send.
YES!! I may be considered an old lady at 63 , but I grew up as a child of the hippie generation… and through the 60’s, 70’s , the MTV great years and now this angel! Truly one in a billion sound!
She MUST be an angel!
Looking like some clear skies
Have finally opened up my eyes
Living in a lost time
The dawning of a brand-new man
So much blood on our hands
King and queen of being lonely
Children of the empire see
That we're all lost
Comes a cost walking in the labyrinth without love
How much can you take?
And when are you gonna be okay?
Gain control of what we made
Instead of being afraid
Children of the empire say
We're long gone
In that eternal flame
Trying to break away
From the mess we made
Oh, we don't have time anymore
To be afraid
We tend to live long
That's why so many things go wrong
People selling their young blood
I guess that's the price you pay
Make desire but no one wins
Won't the fire burn us in
Before we get a chance to love again?
Children understand that they pay for their sins
Seize control of what they made
Before we all fade away
Children of the empire wanna change
'Cause we're long gone
In that eternal flame
Trying to break away
From the mess we made
Oh, we don't have time anymore
To be afraid, anymore
Children of the empire know
Know that they're not free even though
They wanna be free
We know we're not free even though
We wanna be free
im totally caught off guard by this. this reminds me of the protest music from the 60's -- we need it.
My Queen never fails to make Album of the Year.
this feels like a new pinnacle for baroque pop, absolutely stunning and powerful
wtf is baroque?

@@chunky2155 why are you listening then? 💀
You know back in the 70's we expected memorable pop like this to come along as regular as clockwork.
This song just makes the whole album for me. So glad to have stumbled across Weyes Blood
Me too. Just found this artist a week ago. Where have I been? Love the whole album!!!
Wow , best song I’ve heard in a long long time . A beautiful combination of Joni Mitchell and The Beach Boys . Can’t get a bigger compliment than that !! Love it
And Elliott Smith
Karen Carpenter meets Brian Wilson.
And Aimee Mann.
You absolutely can (and should) slip this song into a Christmas playlist
This song is also in my black metal list. Its everywhere
Listened to this song a lot while I was with an old friend and having good times together. Such a special song
this is the song of the century
Yet again I find myself just absolutely enamored by her music. She is just unreal.
I'll echo some of the comments below and say this is reminiscent of Brian Wilson at his very best. Thank you, Natalie Mering!
Oh yes, truly! 🤩God bless Brian Wilson and his legacy. :) Joy and thrills.
Brian Wilson and The Doors
okay i hear it!
The Carpenters meet The Beach Boys in the summer of ‘76.
Carpenters influence, that 70s twist. So good.
Favorite song on the album
Discovered her today, what an amazing and honest voice!
Giving me strong Beach Boys vibes and I love it. 👌🏽
pet sounds
thats giving me good vibrations fr
totally
I hear more Laura Nyro
This is so amazing. I needed this album. Now I'm in that dreamy headspace again as I was with her last album. I haven't listened to her in quite a while and almost forgot how much I love her.
This album is really incredible. Such a beautiful rollercoaster of emotions.
So beautiful song.
And a absolute honourable successor of Karen Carpenter. The same emotion and vibrato in your voice Weyes Blood
Yes! Saw her last night and couldn’t stop thinking about how similar in tone her voice is to Karen’s.
First 30 seconds and i’m in love with the song
check out the rest of it
@@chunky2155 it get´s even better
I had the pleasure to feel you in Milan as a opener for father Jhon Misty , let me tell you this you are the best female voice i ever heard in 33 years.
She’s always the best
One of the most beautiful things I have ever heard.
One of the best songs from the album
I swear the piano introduction of this song is the same as If Everyone Was Listening from Supertramp. Beautiful song for an extremely talented singer.
I'm starting to love this album already
ok
ART.
This. Is. Incredible.
This song is something else
it’s giving Brian Wilson
I just heard this performed live on NPR. Simply incredible!
Música de otro universo, la siento muy cósmica y espacial . ❤❤arte absoluto
Sheer beauty. Looking forward to seeing her live on the south coast in June!
It was amazing wasn’t it?
I had to check that this wasn't a Figure 8 era Elliott Smith song. By which I mean it's great! Lovely stuff.
Tu hermosa voz y la melodía de tus canciones hacen magia ✨❤️
speaj egnlsiuh
@chunky2155, don’t speak.
Amo tu voz y tu forma de hacer música!!!!!
stunning every time with every song
I bet you hate being pigeonholed as an artist. But when I first heard you, your music reminded me of Rufus Wainwright. I don't know how you feel about that but it made me feel something. And more.
Great song! Channeling her inner Aimee Mann. Excellent.
Wow... from Ghana
This is soooooooo good! 🙌
I'm so obsessed with her music. Help.
💙🌙 My favorite artist with Lana Del Rey. Perfect voices, so sweet so deep, so pure with perfect melodies, enchanting lyrics, you just have to dive into this atmosphere and wrap yourself like with a blanket and take of for space.
Speechless. Once again.
Always beautiful music. Your voice reminds me of Joni Mitchell, Carly Simon.
And a bit of Karen Carpenter.
with glitters of Brian Eno and the ghosts of other 60s and 70s artists
And a little touch of Carole King!
.....hearing some Laura Nyro in there, TOO.....
.....and of COURSE, Aimee.....
fuck yeah seeing her in NC in February what an amazing artist
This is gorgeous! Kudos!!
My favorite christmas song:)
Temazo.
Can’t stop listening it’s sooo good !!

More Genesis i think
What a wonderful song, definitely one of the most perfect ones she has made
~ loving this 'still' , just love it
My instant fave🙏
great recommendation like i legit never heard of this guys.
Awesome! Don't pass up Titanic Rising or any of her three other albums.
She really made a song about the meme
"Sorry kid, world's ending before you can legally rent a car."
Hopefully we get a Music Video eventually.
I wish a music video of this would exist
Love this and bought the,album. Loving it. Just listened again now and asking myself why it reminds of Midlake in parts. That's a good thing in my opinion. Love them both
Scotty beam me up...very ,very good............stuff......
Beautiful, Master Peace💖🌷
😍 lovely tune harmony
I love your natural ballad voice, i thought that sound had been abandoned forever (an industry fuelled on tormented emo frailty and that operatic vocal twerking which passes for soul nowadays).
good news it hasnt been abandoned
There's many others in independant music! ;)

Você acertou nessa
I've just discovered this artist. Reminds me of Joan Baez...
Welcome, behold the GOAT
Joan Báez con voz melancólica.
So real
close my eyes and don't be afraid anymore
Weyes Blood she's like JONI MITCHELL and like LAURA NYRO.
"how much can someone take and when will they be ok"
❤️
