You know when you just finished crying so hard but you can’t feel anything?
That’s this feeling into a song to me

[alexk]

This makes me feel like there’s a way out.

[gabos]

oklou's music makes me feel some type of way that it's hard to explain it feels like i'm being transported to a certain place that is neither beautiful or horrible it feels fantastic and unrealistic in a way my senses can perceive as if it was my past... something or somewhere that feels like it happened but just as a vague memory, that contains emotion and a story of its own kind. thanks for your work it's truly inspirational

[benoturi]

You must be a beautiful human being, no way a bad person could make music beautiful as this. I discovered you three years ago, thats when I first heard „for the beasts“, Dawn is still one of my favourite songs. <3

[HannahSnowArt]

anyone else notice that in the original track (8 mins long) she whispers something at 4 minutes 30 seconds? barely audible but I’m sure she says something about miracles. can’t find anyone else that’s noticed it, amazing song

[leonestello]

It's a Prayer.
"I don't really know why I came down here...
I hurt my knees and scratch my feet."💕
Thank you.

[eoin]

one of, if not THE most beautiful, musical projects this year

"This is what screaming in gorgeous sounds like"

[jsmyth]

Trust me, I will not be gone for too long
But long enough so you can thrive
Until you join me back my love
You find me, these times you think you're all alone
When the winter is too cold
Don't forget all the springs to come
I didn't give up on you, ooh yeah
Not a day I didn't give up on you, baby ooh

Trust me, another story in the sky
Another reason for the stars
To hold us closely when we cry
Oh, know that I'm leaving because I love you
But I need to love myself too
Where are my prayers, oh, that's why, I
I will not give up on you
I will not give up on you

[Coda]

This is what screaming in gorgeous sounds like
This is how I'm getting back to my real life
I didn't know I was scared 'till I was pulling back
Why be afraid when you can wear a mask
This is here the place you told me about
Now that I'm here, I'm not sure that I wanna get out
Will I miss it, and wanna come back?
Can I take everything in my backpack?
In my backpack
I don't really know why I came down here
It's not like it's easy to reach
I hurt my knees and scratch my feet

[RyanVoorhies]

that was so beautiful, that I got sucked in after a second and forgot I was watching this on a phone. I cried.. stunning. Will respect this video again by watching it on a big display.

[RyanVoorhies]

boldest outro track since Quicksand on Vulnicura. The guitar part made me cry the first time I heard it, as well as the stark ending.

[TheRealDealJuju]

I have no words yet..but if my heart could talk, it would be through the tears I just cried. Beautifully performed. Bravo.

[lokik]

l'outro me colle à la peau c'est un truc de dingue je suis trop heureux qu'elle fasse partie de ce clip sublime
plein d'amour

[dominikbehal]

This is no music, this is art. pure gold. outstanding, remarkable. never heard anything like that. don't know if I could imagine a life without you anymore. I feel closer and more connected to the world. your voice opens other dimensions and makes all the demons in my mind disappear.

[rahvavaenlane]

Beautiful track, a musical poem. Don't stop eating.

[hadrienhartgers]

Aucune idée pourquoi. Mais la phrase "Can I take everything in my backpack" ouvre les vannes. Comme si tout de l'adieu, de la séparation, de la perte, était représenté dans une phrase aussi simple. J'aimerais bien savoir d'où vient cette émotion, si c'est le phrasé, la mélodie, les mots, ou tout ensemble qui me touche autant, je suis peut-être pas seul. Merci pour ces émotions fortes.

[OOUKFunkyOO]

everyone involved with this came together to make something very special

[salvadorayonjaquez]

wow this touches my soul and leaves me breathless

[atlasof]

The animation so perfectly fits the emotions this song evokes. The last part is the cherry on the cake.
