When I was pregnant with my son, I'd play her music and he'd kick up a storm. Now he's here and we dance around the living room to her music. I hope he loves her music just as much as I do, she's gotten me through the best of times and the worst.

My 4 year old niece just loves her. She refers to Jonna as, "the winter girl", although she is still convinced that Jonna is part astronaut, mermaid, and space fairy. :3

'I want the world rushing through my veins". Some people may think she's talking about success but for me, she's singing about something that is almost spiritual. She wants to feel life. She wants to live every moment and experience nature, herself and find her own as she wants to find her path. I think this explains a lot of what we live every single day. We're always searching and living for something that we know and don't know at the same time. And it's amazing when someone put it into a song that sounds so beautiful. Thank you iamamiwhoami!

Can we please talk about her beautiful ICE inspired costume? She's stole my heart.

I wish I was a millionaire and give them so much money to keep doing this magic, to keep generating this magic. Music has a new meaning for me because of iamamiwhoami. There's hope for music after all. 

[PHLOfficial]

I can't deal with how amazing visually and production wise this artist is! Takes me away from this world into an amazing dream land!

[FarrierNoire]

There’s no other artist like her. Her songs are just so amazingly crafted. She’s so gifted!

[nicto]

Мне нравится Йонна и её творчество: необычная внешность, фигура, голос, акцент и, во всех клипах она разная! Прекрасный человек прекрасен во всём!

[seekingsolace]

I think fans aren't generating enough. It's not just about the money. It's the sharing. Generating interest. As it has always been for iamamiwhoami. They depend on us. We need to keep sharing. Don't give up. Share their music with everyone. Get those youtube views overflowing. We are their army and we cannot become restless. Generate!

Want want want (You)
Stretching out before my eyes
Are riches a ruler requires
Regal shimmer, blinding shine
But hollowness when all this is mine
Through all the shallow depths, I had to wade
This could've become my darkest hour
Enough of days living in the shade

I see harbor, ooh ooh ooh
Is it underneath the tide vista?
Hide my land of frozen soil
That’s why some go scared through looking at mine
Can you follow me and I’ll do if you take it ALL
Chase us all to the end, but it will finish you, take ALL

Improbable place unknown
Untouched and all undestroyed
Here I let my armies grow
Our voices will loudly crow

In the middle of a deadly current
Never believed to cure the doubt
I want the world rushing through my veins

I see harbor, ooh ooh ooh
Is it underneath the tide vista?
Hide my land of frozen soil
That’s why some go scared through looking at mine
Can you follow me and I’ll do if you take it ALL
Chase us all to the end, but it will finish you, take ALL

Want only you to take me all! [want (me), you, take ALL (me)]
I want you to take ALL! (me)

Can you follow me through a second round? Yeah
Can you taste the pale white salts against your tongue?

I see harbor, ooh ooh ooh
Is it underneath the tide vista?
Hide my land of frozen soil
That’s why some go scared through looking at mine
Can you follow me and I’ll do if you take it ALL
Chase us all to the end, but it will finish you, take ALL

I am loving this song, which gets better and better with repeat listens.  This is definitely my favorite single they've put out so far in 2014.  There's a really beautiful feel to this song, with a great nostalgic vibe that harks back to the 80s without sounding in the least bit cliched or redundant.

Robyn, The Knife, iamamiwhoami. Sweden is the best...

[sufferfashion]

The most underrated band on the planet atm

[nickfromchalkzone]

when i first heard this song, i actually kinda hated it. i would listen to every 'blue' song released except for vista. then, one day, the chorus from vista just started playing in my head for some reason, and so i listened to it again, and i realized what i was missing out on. such an amazing song, all the 'blue' songs are. jonnaaa<33

[oldskoolarcade]

Absolutely in love with this song and Ionna Lee. I know I'm coming in about 7 years too late. I can't help giggling at the 3 silhouettes when they're mimicking her dancing, "are we doing this right?"

[renanwayfarer]

I watched this video already 15 times I think... And told every friend about her. But noone give me a fuck about it. Anyway I still love Iamamiwhoami and still with my opinion that she is wonderful amazing artist. LOVE JONNA LEE

arrepios e uma mistura de sentimentos enquanto ouço nao sei explicar

[richardhendersen]

The second you realize how beautiful this song is, is the second you become alive.

[Melosyna]

You thought you have created a place of purity, peace and beauty.
A sanctuary where you feel safe and whole.
But they will come, they always do. And they will taint your creation and mock your art.
They might even chase you out of your own realm.

[pepedn]

I can't believe they shot this in -25ºC and wearing only this suit. Amazing
