I think she deserves international recogition - on a Tori Amos / etc. Level with those piano pieces.

We love you Anja, we will always deeply love you

[fayamonkeyrecords]

Danke, Anja. Deine Musik erzeugt in mir das Gefühl, dass alles, was ist, liebenswert, zerbrechlich und zugleich wunderschön ist. Deine Musik transportiert und erschafft Gefühle. Mehr kann Musik gar nicht können wollen.

[Yormolch]

Your music always hits me like a truck right in the chest. You carry such strong emotions and although it never completely matches mine, I can relate very well.
This is exceptional art, even when it is a coversong. Thank you for creating it.

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
Oh, to see without my eyes
The first time that you kissed me
Boundless by the time I cried
I built your walls around me
White noise, what an awful sound
Fumbling by Rogue River
Feel my feet above the ground
Hand of God, deliver me

[Chorus]
Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
The first time that you touched me
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Blessed be the mystery of love

[Verse 2]
Lord, I no longer believe
Drowned in living waters
Cursed by the love that I received
From my brother's daughter
Like Hephaestion, who died
Alexander's lover
Now my riverbed has dried
Shall I find no other?
See pop shows near Wien
Get tickets as low as $53

[Chorus]
Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
I'm running like a plover
Now I'm prone to misery
The birthmark on your shoulder reminds me

[Verse 3]
How much sorrow can I take?
Blackbird on my shoulder
And what difference does it make
When this love is over?
Shall I sleep within your bed?
River of unhappiness
Hold your hands upon my head
Till I breathe my last breath

[Chorus]
Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
The last time that you touched me
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Blessed be the mystery of love

I first heard goodbye on Dark, and I had to check you out. You have a very sweet voice. Your songs hit deep. Thank you for your music.

[jedermann]

I listen to the music... I look at the artwork... A collab with Woodkid NEEDS to happen! What a cover, Mrs. Plaschg. No words.

[TheBowerbird]

This song just brings such a sense of peace. Beautiful!

[Naki]

It is a really beautiful piece of art. Thanks for everything you’ve brought to us fans.

[verdronkenmarginaalvis]

It's such a beautiful song that I listen to it all day long. Without you I wouldn't have anything to listen to

[almostasiftosay]

Omg this is my favorite song ever and I love the cover you did ❤

[horstjesersky]

Die Empfehlung im Perlentaucher war ein voller Erfolg. Wunderbares Lied mit einer interessanten Geschichte.

[nothere]

Beautiful song. Deserves more recognition

[mantisshrimp]

Love your music since 2012 and it's really nice to see the news about the new album! Time to listen to old songs again

[FreekJanssens]

I have a lot of respect for an artist like Soap&Skin, someone who don't want to be a 'product' of the music industry.

Anja makes beautiful, touchful music knowing very well that it will not reach the big masses or will chart that high, so, let her remain our secret... ❤

[kesagatame]

What delightful treat! Thanks for sharing.
