She is so underrated. She's my favorite vocalist of all time, her voice is amazing and her control over it is magical. She writes songs that feel so sad and wonderful.. Her album Citizen of Glass is incredible. If it's raining outside, put on some Agnes Obel. Perfect fit. Check out her song Familiar, there's a live version on youtube from a large open studio. It's great.

You're not too far away with your analysis; in an interview Agnes was asked what this songs lyrics were about & she replied : "I wanted to write a song about how people can be transformed, and sometimes how when you meet other people who have been through this strange transformation, you can tell. It was a time in my life when I was changing a lot myself, and I wanted to describe that, using water as a border between one world and another."

It is lovely. Between the simple, repetitive melody and Agnes' voice I found myself just closing my eyes and very peacefully listening to her sing. Very nice.

Agnes is fantastic. Great choice. I don't know a lot about her personally, but she's a fabulous singer and song writer.

I’m so pleased you have discovered Agnes Obel. There is something very magical about her sound which seems to belong to that transitional space between wakefulness and sleep. I strongly recommend her to you as a rabbit hole to jump down. You might already have heard some of her music without realising it; it is used a lot in films and tv shows. If you would like to try more of her music, the first two I would recommend are: ‘Fuel To Fire’, which has a very similar old video feel, and which was played in the outro to episode 5 of ‘The Last of Us’.. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nteKetmcq5aUdH0.htmlsi=btkQOIxZWMlqWrRA ‘The Curse’ - a wonderful live performance in what looks like an empty dancehall. Just Agnes on celeste and her two supporting musicians playing cello and viola. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oJenmsR3r5abZWQ.htmlsi=vpSBZr_QsYP3OcjY

Good art makes you think and feel, we don’t need o know the actual meaning as you can have your own interpretation. Love Agnes Obel. You should look at Kate Miller Heidke, she can be beautiful and or totally bonkers.

it has close to 50 million views, and still she is an underdog and criminally underrated
