chapter 6 of the audiovisual series BLUE by iamamiwhoami. released oct 2 2014. www.twimc.cc credits: music and performance by iamamiwhoami direction, edit and post production by WAVE produced by To whom it may concern.
iamamiwhoami's music has helped me through so many rough times since i have discovered them. Music like this transcends you to a different place. Especially during this pandemic, and everything else that is happening in the world, i want to listen to a song like this + just escape. (I ordered the "blue" vinyl and cannot wait until it gets here just to listen to this song on repeat and possibly tear up at the beauty of it!)
I don't know if she's doing it on purpose or not, but I love the fact that mostly I don't understand a word I think that adds to the whole magical effect of their music
The transition... I do not think they will be able to surpass the effect they have made with this song just by the transition. Oh, my God!!! Thank you Iamamiwhoami just for existing!
This. This is what I wanted this project to be like. This is what Iam does so well. The complexity in song structure is there, the layers in the lyrics is there, the tone in the images presented is there. I think this song is about her feeling trapped by her own art in some sense like if she tried to make anything else her fans, perhaps represented by the black figures, would turn on her.
There's great symbolism here. One alternate interpretation could be that she tried to fit in (hence the donning of the shadow). maybe the Shadows burning her songs represent the commercial giants that wouldn't allow her real creativity..
amazing stuff with the shadows, glad we got to spend a little time with them here... love the tempo change in the middle... you guys never cease to blow me away :D
I already pre-ordered BLUE, it was 18 Euros for the physical CD + 10 Euros for shipping. AND I CAN`T WAIT for it to arrive, this is my way to express my love for the project, without funds, they won't be making this magic anymore, even if they want.
Gah her voice is crystal clear. I am in love with the part in 3:00with her look and the overall ethereal qualities of the music. And she looks amazing.
somehow had not listened to this track yet - whoa! probably the most interesting composition from iamamiwhoami I've heard to date. the tempo and key changes SLAP
Humm, I have seen some people who really LOVED ripple. Btw, I will wait until the videos are out to listen the last songs. What if ripple's video is life changing? :)
This is an audio and *visual* project. Some people seem to forget this. Despite listening to the album separately from the videos it still fulfills the original thoughts and feelings these videos conjured. I am taken to the same places albeit the narrative is different. The audio alone is an outstanding project in itself but married together on a platform like this, has achieved something rarely seen in today's music industry. The album itself is exquisitely produced and so too is the cinematography. Combined so seamlessly I'd go as far to say that they have transcended and bridged over the status quo to give us something quite stunning and truly unique.
Seriously, this is a pure MASTERPIECE. Maybe the best song of the album so far, along with "hunting for pearls". Great visuals too. Can't wait for the rest of the songs, "shadowshow" in particular.
The most beautiful video, the most beautiful artist. I am so excited for this album and I am so thankful for you sharing this gift with the world. Stunning in every single way. THANK YOU. Jonna you are incredible.
Historically, brazilians are very open to foreign cultures, so listening to music from other countries, mainly USA and Europe, is very natural for us. Besides, brazilians are VERY engaged in social media, so we "appear a lot" lol. It doesn't happen only with iamamiwhoami, a lot of other improbable artists have a larger fandom in Brazil than in their own countries.
I just can't find words to describe how much this song means to me. Like melancholic, refreshing, relaxing, but emotional, sentimental. Especially the second part when the song slowed down. Just wow... its totally out of this world and it makes me cry
Everytime I came to figure out the story, there's something that blows all my theories away! YAAAY! I just love the song and the video, it's pure perfection. Thank u Jonna and Co. for making gems like this!
Can I live here? Seriously though, what an absolute ethereal goddess. I love this creature, she paints such a magical otherworldly picture with her music.
Just folding some laundry checking out the new releases. The breakdown is perfect, the 2nd half of the song could go on for another 10 minutes as far as I'm concerned, I had to look the song up and comment, I knew there would be a video of it. Awesome stuff!
That epic transition at 3:12 does everything that the transition in "rascal" just missed. It's like you almost enter another song. I love when they do this. Easily one of my favorite songs from them of the whole bunch.
Amazing, the sound really got me, althought I was not very happy with the beginning but when your hear it all, you love it. I'm glad that there is no one complaining about this song or how pop it is.♥
CocainCarousel yeah, i shoul've known better. but i have to say that the bunch of stuff that they have thrown/burnt in the forest since bounty era makes me wonder about what happened
I agree with Vincent the song is too short, it ends before the journey is over. Exquisite is what you are. I do still have issues with faceless men in black, but you dear artist are extraordinary.
definitely EXTRAORDINARY. you definitely should follow iamamiwhoami I'm not sure if I do agree on the length of the video, of course, I do always want the videos and songs to last longer but that has to do with my addiction to them, I never want them to end. But no, it does not end before the journey is over. That is a trademark edition for their visual/audio creations.....they all lead into one another, so maybe watch them all in order. Since BLUE has not yet been released, try watching the album KIN, watching those videos together is a great journey.
why dont you all just stop,with that bounty statement? Seriously, havent you read before those comments? I guess you havent, nobody wants to be a pain in the ass
A fire’s beneath the cloak of night Has my eyes in control We guard them with our weary eyes and we watch them grow When the time is right And we’re ready to begin At the first tide, your patience wearing thin Scattered in from night I scrawl it in a winter white Melting into thin air The kind of witch I came to be Left of being swallowed whole By offering a piece of me To any given form Scattered in the mud Like innocent shades of white Spreading by the wind (Change goes on) (Wind blows south) It doesn’t end They ask us why, who said we had a chance? Want me to fall? It doesn't end (through the wind, through the wind) They ask us why, who said we had a chance? Want me to fall? Too thin (through the wind, through the wind) Too thin, too thin (through the wind, through the wind, through the wind) (change goes on) (through the wind, through the wind, through the wind) (Wind blows south)
So I watched Tarkovsky’s Stalker very recently and cannot help but think it very much inspired the cinematography for BLUE! It’s probably one of the most profound audiovisual albums ever, and Stalker is definitely one of the most profound films I’ve ever seen ❤
OMG I honestly don't know how this one escaped from me. What can i say, well MASTERPIECE for one!! It's stunning and this is what music was meant to be. Ioanna is a musical Genius in every sense of the word. I love it completely beautiful in every single way❤
Karluck Jean I got these from www.iamamiwhoami.wikia.com/wiki/Lyrics:thin A fire’s beneath the cloak of night has our minds in control We guard them with our weary eyes and we watch them grow When the time is right And we’re ready to begin At the first tide, your patience wearing thin Scattered in from night I scrawl it in a winter white Melting into thin The kind of which I came to be Left of being swallowed whole By offering a piece of me To any given fool Scattered in the mud Like innocent shades of white Spreading by the wind (change goes on) (leave both sides) They talk to me They ask us why Who said we had a chance?

Too thin (in the wind, the wind) Too thin, too thin (in the wind, the wind, the wind) (change goes on) (in the wind, the wind, the wind) (leave both sides)
much praise for releasing what'll probably be the best track on this album (this>hunting for pearls>blue blue>vista>fountain>tap your glass for me but) -still unsure on the videos, though- nopenopenope totally not go to chasing for kites this thing righted itself
The tempo change... UNBELIEVABLE. One of iam´s best moments imo.

Yes!
One of the most striking songs by iamamiwhoami. Airy, uplifting and absolutely wonderful composition of the song. So proud!
wait... why are you proud? did you write the synth part?
@@Milohenry13 I'm proud of them as a fan. That shade was unnecessary though, have a nice day
@@Milohenry13 d
Couldn’t agree more!!
@@Milohenry13 m

To me, this is a song about Depression. The *Darkness* that consumes you, eats you till you're *Thin*.
👏🏻
How good is this???? I really didn't expect the song to change this way! And the video might be the best so far
I don't know if she's doing it on purpose or not, but I love the fact that mostly I don't understand a word
I think that adds to the whole magical effect of their music
Cocteau Twins!
@@ronneyrendon5045 her accent
The transition... I do not think they will be able to surpass the effect they have made with this song just by the transition. Oh, my God!!! Thank you Iamamiwhoami just for existing!
yes, simply YES
My thoughts exactly. That transition is really something else
I know everyone is saying it, but that tempo change... gives me chill and euphoria.
That change in the middle fucks my mind. L' Eagle Eyez.
+Sektion9 love the change......:)
Her music after all these years, im.still in love 🥲💖💖💖
Eu amo essa musica pelo simples fato de ter 3 ritmos e ainda continuar boa
I cant get over this song. This has to be one of the deepest sounds I have ever heard
This. This is what I wanted this project to be like. This is what Iam does so well. The complexity in song structure is there, the layers in the lyrics is there, the tone in the images presented is there. I think this song is about her feeling trapped by her own art in some sense like if she tried to make anything else her fans, perhaps represented by the black figures, would turn on her.
You predicted the future 😂
Essa música é tão absurda de incrível que cada vez que ouço é uma sensação diferente.
Libertador. Só queria estar nessa ilhazinha.
apenas...
i love how She is one of the shadows here
She was one of the shadows in Blue Blue (the one in the mirror, and then with the paper boats) and it seems that nobody noticed it.
Looks like she is cheating other shadows, or am I mistaken?
Awesome! I thought I was the only one that noticed this.
There's great symbolism here. One alternate interpretation could be that she tried to fit in (hence the donning of the shadow). maybe the Shadows burning her songs represent the commercial giants that wouldn't allow her real creativity..
Where do you noticed it?
This is already my current favourite of blue with no doubt.
amazing stuff with the shadows, glad we got to spend a little time with them here... love the tempo change in the middle... you guys never cease to blow me away :D
I already pre-ordered BLUE, it was 18 Euros for the physical CD + 10 Euros for shipping. AND I CAN`T WAIT for it to arrive, this is my way to express my love for the project, without funds, they won't be making this magic anymore, even if they want.
completely agree!
my god, are you annoying
Good point! We've got to support the artist that we love.
Gah her voice is crystal clear. I am in love with the part in 3:00with her look and the overall ethereal qualities of the music. And she looks amazing.
somehow had not listened to this track yet - whoa! probably the most interesting composition from iamamiwhoami I've heard to date. the tempo and key changes SLAP
This is awesome, you are truly an artist, the world needs more of this!
This is without a doubt going to be the best song we're getting on BLUE.
Nah, this album is so good that every song is the favorite of someone. It's a good idea wait for the last 3 songs to decide which one is the best :P
I've already heard the last 3 songs. Ripple is NOT good imo. The Last Dancer is gorgeous and Shadowshow is... well, shadowshow.
SlappyCider
Yeah Ripple sucks. Lyrically, I think The Last Dancer is just beautiful.
Humm, I have seen some people who really LOVED ripple. Btw, I will wait until the videos are out to listen the last songs. What if ripple's video is life changing? :)
***** Just search them on Google. They're everywhere now.
TWO VIDEOS IN ONE DAY YOU GUYS ARE WAAAY TOO GOOD TO US IM CRYING.
The peak of iamamiwhoa production
This is an audio and *visual* project. Some people seem to forget this. Despite listening to the album separately from the videos it still fulfills the original thoughts and feelings these videos conjured. I am taken to the same places albeit the narrative is different.

Could you said it in a more poignant and beautiful way? No. You said it all. 💙
This deserve more views, listen the whole song before you judge.
what an amazing discovery, is this what it's like to be in love?
C Parker Yes, it must be like this :)
It is
It's just about as random as love.
this audiovisual album never leaves my brain, EVER.
Seriously, this is a pure MASTERPIECE. Maybe the best song of the album so far, along with "hunting for pearls". Great visuals too. Can't wait for the rest of the songs, "shadowshow" in particular.
The most beautiful video, the most beautiful artist. I am so excited for this album and I am so thankful for you sharing this gift with the world. Stunning in every single way. THANK YOU. Jonna you are incredible.
Such a great build up to 2:00, then my head begins to bump.
for the first time I fall in love with 1 single listen, iamamiwhoami= best music EVER
Maybe someone can explain this to me. Why is Iamamiwhoami so insanely popular in Brazil?
That is a damn good question. Why is it so popular in Brazil?! I live in Miami and I feel like I'm the one always mentioning them.
Because we are fucking awesome
Historically, brazilians are very open to foreign cultures, so listening to music from other countries, mainly USA and Europe, is very natural for us. Besides, brazilians are VERY engaged in social media, so we "appear a lot" lol. It doesn't happen only with iamamiwhoami, a lot of other improbable artists have a larger fandom in Brazil than in their own countries.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES
***** isn't her? -q
I'm watching all the chapters! Favourite album of all time. ❤️
I just can't find words to describe how much this song means to me. Like melancholic, refreshing, relaxing, but emotional, sentimental. Especially the second part when the song slowed down. Just wow... its totally out of this world and it makes me cry
These lyrics make me wander and wonder everytime..
I have fallen in love with your music - it's come out of the blue, side swiped me, when I needed it most! Thank you!
Everytime I came to figure out the story, there's something that blows all my theories away! YAAAY! I just love the song and the video, it's pure perfection. Thank u Jonna and Co. for making gems like this!
amazing! third best song from blue after hunting pearls and vista and second best video after fountain so far!
Still love this song. Feels so etheral.
This is the most addicting song since "n". I can't stop playing it.
Can I live here?
Seriously though, what an absolute ethereal goddess. I love this creature, she paints such a magical otherworldly picture with her music.
Best single in my opinion!!!!! And I got to wake up to this amazing ness!!
2:13 well... you don't have to get angry with us...
LOL maybe she's fed up with the complaints!
XD =P
Just folding some laundry checking out the new releases. The breakdown is perfect, the 2nd half of the song could go on for another 10 minutes as far as I'm concerned, I had to look the song up and comment, I knew there would be a video of it. Awesome stuff!
This is art, simply and pure.
I will get this video to 1 million views if I have to do it myself.
Absolutely amazing Jonna 😍😍😍😍😍
That epic transition at 3:12 does everything that the transition in "rascal" just missed. It's like you almost enter another song. I love when they do this. Easily one of my favorite songs from them of the whole bunch.
ABCDyeahyeah "rascal" didn't missed anything for me, but I get what you mean. "thin" has to be my favourite from 'BLUE'
That tempo change.
once again, Thank You iamamiwhoami
never ever have i been uninterested or questioning such beauty in your art work and creations!
My favorite song of this album
Amazing, the sound really got me, althought I was not very happy with the beginning but when your hear it all, you love it. I'm glad that there is no one complaining about this song or how pop it is.♥
Un sonido inigualable. Un ritmo nuevo dentro de lo último de se había escuchado. Literal. Estoy reenamorado!
Just discovered this via apple music this week....I'm still digesting it. And locked on repeat.
haunting, I love all of these shades of blue
One of the best single do far! Beyond perfect! And incredible visual!
she's so beautiful
Listened to this album during labor with all three of my babies.
Love this
Mystic and beautiful
I wonder if they cleaned up the broken glass
i sincerely hope it was sugar glass
CocainCarousel yeah, i shoul've known better. but i have to say that the bunch of stuff that they have thrown/burnt in the forest since bounty era makes me wonder about what happened
+salmonelas123 don't worry, she already say they clean up, on an interview...
Off camera, they actually walked over the broken glass, slashed open their soles and offered their blood to the ocean.
@@Milohenry13 LMAO.
Waooo! this is a masterpiece, seriously i don't know why this video has only 199.713 views.....it's not fair TT
Так гарно, заворожує
I agree with Vincent the song is too short, it ends before the journey is over. Exquisite is what you are. I do still have issues with faceless men in black, but you dear artist are extraordinary.

Sooper nice. Might be my favorite from the new album!
Как же классно просто с бутылочкой сидеть на берегу летнего моря и ни о чем не думать.
Как это по русски ❤🇷🇺
This is so awesome!!
I just can't wait for Blue release

My favorite singer.
Best single on BLUE however nothing will ever compare to the dark tones of BOUNTY for me.
why dont you all just stop,with that bounty statement? Seriously, havent you read before those comments? I guess you havent, nobody wants to be a pain in the ass
One of my most favorite songs ever.
Jonna, pls come to Mossoró-RN
A tinta de falsa albina vai derreter no Brasil.
todos vão descobrir a phalcatrua kkkkkkkkkkk
the poses in the water always make me laugh esp. the one hand on the head & the other on the hip- don't know why
I've been won over to this album thanks to the release of this and Chasing Kites. Well done.
Thumbs Up! Great artist. Top of my fave list! #iamamiwhoami
A fire’s beneath the cloak of night
Has my eyes in control
We guard them with our weary eyes and we watch them grow
When the time is right
And we’re ready to begin
At the first tide, your patience wearing thin
Scattered in from night
I scrawl it in a winter white
Melting into thin air
The kind of witch I came to be
Left of being swallowed whole
By offering a piece of me
To any given form
Scattered in the mud
Like innocent shades of white
Spreading by the wind
(Change goes on)
(Wind blows south)
It doesn’t end
They ask us why, who said we had a chance?
Want me to fall?
It doesn't end (through the wind, through the wind)
They ask us why, who said we had a chance?
Want me to fall?
Too thin (through the wind, through the wind)
Too thin, too thin (through the wind, through the wind, through the wind)
(change goes on)
(through the wind, through the wind, through the wind)
(Wind blows south)
to any given fool*
02:44 super-endowed shadow man in the back.... Go ahead, unsee it now!
So I watched Tarkovsky’s Stalker very recently and cannot help but think it very much inspired the cinematography for BLUE! It’s probably one of the most profound audiovisual albums ever, and Stalker is definitely one of the most profound films I’ve ever seen ❤
My son, Ivan. He studies in the same class with Andrei Tarkovsky's granddaughter. Her name is Milana. A nice creative girl. They are 11 years old.
уже 5 лет прошло. как время то летит
OMG I honestly don't know how this one escaped from me. What can i say, well MASTERPIECE for one!! It's stunning and this is what music was meant to be. Ioanna is a musical Genius in every sense of the word. I love it completely beautiful in every single way❤

brano stupendo
WOW! Thank you to the creator of this Beautiful Art.
She's sending messages to her past that the time has come to part ways.
сказочно красивая мелодия и аранжировка
Πόσο τέλειο ! Repeat, repeat, repeat.
much praise for releasing what'll probably be the best track on this album (this>hunting for pearls>blue blue>vista>fountain>tap your glass for me but)
-still unsure on the videos, though- nopenopenope totally not go to chasing for kites this thing righted itself
here's hoping the new album is less poppy and more of this beautiful, spacey, transcendental nature electro XD
100% this.
