Broken sleep, all too human
A malady, it's gazing through when I would

Dream me a dream (Soft as a pillow)
Dream me a dream (Dream me a dream)
Dream me a dream (Deep in the night till the morning will follow)
Dream me a dream (Dream me a dream)

Shapes of smoke, all too human
They grow, like titans

I would like to fall, silence every call
(Will you level me with a dream?)
If I could fall, fall

I would like to fall (fall asleep), silence every call
(Will you level me with a dream?)
If I could fall, I would like to fall

Twisted rope, defies all I know
It holds, my reason

Dream me a dream (Soft as a pillow)
Dream me a dream (Dream me a dream)
Dream me a dream (Deep in the night till the morning will follow)
Dream me a dream (Dream me a dream)

Sea of trees, calling humans
To hang like leaves from the willow

I would like to fall, silence every call
(Will you level me with a dream?)
If I could fall, fall

I would like to fall (fall asleep), silence every call
(Will you level me with a dream?)
If I could fall, I would like to fall

Take my word for it, for it
In the dark, in the dark
In the dark words can follow

Habe Agnes mal gemocht. Doch leider sehe ich keine Entwicklung, es wiederholt sich.

I used to like Agnes. Unfortunately there is no progression, too much repetition.

I do love her unmistaken sound and haunting harmonies

She's my inspiration for my piano playing. I did 'Chord left' with my teacher, was soooo good. I imagine this would be nice as well.

Starting with a '6', may go up with further listening...

Agnes never fails to intrigue, entice, and enthrall.

I like this! Fits the ethereal "COVID-19" mood I'm caught in. Reminds me a little of Kate Bush, and a little of my little sister Mimi Goese (of Hugo Largo, now working with Ben Neill). I could dig hearing more of this artist.

Ethereal indeed.
Really enjoying this.

Drimmy-a-drim (yes I know my Danish would suck - not trying to be mean as I love her sound)

The development of "My Favorites" and its corresponding "7" cutoff rating has had an interesting (to me at least) impact on my rating habits. In the past I would rate a lot of songs a "7" when I was a fan of the artist but was "so-so" on the song itself. The result was when I would cache "My Favorites" for a road trip I would end up with a gaggle of "so-so" songs that didn't quite fit the bill of ""My Favorites". So now I find myself being a little stingy with my "7" ratings for songs where I like the artist, but I haven't fully bought into the song itself. This is one of those cases, it is not a "6" in my opinion, but hasn't made the cut for inclusion in a "My Favorites" cache, so un-rated it will remain.
