Aesthetic Perfection - Lonesome Ghosts (Official Audio)

- This is the end. The final installment of the 12 Songs in 12 Months project. It's been a longstanding dream of mine to successfully navigate the treacherous world of holiday music, and produce something honest, sincere and fitting for the season.
"Lonesome Ghosts" is a song about finding redemption before being condemned to a life alone. Kept company only by the ghosts of the past.
The snow falls on Dec. 3rd.
Written by Daniel Graves, Chris Harms & Corvin Bahn
Mixed by Chris Harms
Mastered by Benjamin Lawrenz at Chameleon Studios Hamburg

The snow don't fall like it used to,
This fading fire won't warm my bones,
When all is lost I am with you,
No I don't wanna be alone,
No I don't wanna be alone.
This empty house echoes whispers,
I reminisce with all my ghosts,
When all that's left are fading pictures,
No I don't wanna be alone,
No I don't wanna be alone.
And as the season start to change,
So scared I'll wake up on my own,
Can't face another holiday,
If I'm just gonna be alone.
I see a sign in the distance,
My heavy heart's returning home,
I sing a song for forgiveness,
No I don't wanna be alone,
No I don't wanna be alone.
And now the seasons start to change,
Oh I won't wake up on my own,
Will never face a holiday,
Oh I won't ever be alone. - Hudba
I love the animatronic feel of the background Daniels coupled with the obvious fake smile of the singing one. Really reminds me of going through the motions with family every holiday season.
This guy gets it.
Yes
it looks like a Steam Powered Giraffe video
Noone cares bout you nd your family. Chillax
my mom just died. i'm preparing to flee this house because it doesnt feel like a home anymore. this song hits really, really hard. thank you for making it. it articulates things i've been unable to myself.
So sorry for your loss 😔
This song tugs at my heart in so many ways, especially as someone who fights holiday depression and as someone who has been deployed on a submarine during the holidays. Thank you so much for this offering and for sharing this entire project with all of us.
Love the guitar solo in the video, it brought a smile and made me lol.
Oh, this idea of a 12-song project for 12 months was a success! Every month you brought a piece of your heart to us, thank you! 🖤
This year has been great in terms of music, especially Aesthetic Perfection, and I am glad to still be here, enjoying every song as if I heard it for the first time!
Daniel trolling the Holiday season with this video. Right up to the cheesy guitar solo. Well played, sir.
This empty house echoes whispers, I reminisce with all my ghosts, When all that's left are fading pictures, No I don't wanna be alone, No I don't wanna be alone. And as the season start to change, So scared I'll wake up on my own, Can't face another holiday, If I'm just gonna be alone."
Not gonna lie, this whole part hit me right in the feels.
Oh wow such a trip that this is a year old now and back in season.
My grandmother passed away last year on Christmas. These lyrics hit me pretty hard, thank you for the silly video to accompany it ❤️
Yeah I agree. Holidays and birthdays fucking suck. Stay strong friends. At least we have each other
Ok I will say it. You are an amazing artist at your very best. Bravo. What an album.
Thanks for sticking with me this year! 🖤🖤🖤
Daniel, I didn't have family like that but it's okay, I love them too. Thanks for existing you lovely human
Painfully brilliant ❤️
With each song, it is more difficult to tag Aesthetic Perfection music. Perhaps we could say that Aesthetic Perfection is every style of music. And if it´s not, it will be. Good job Daniel 🖐
The goal is to be post genre… if I can achieve that, then I will feel successful. 🙂
@@ClosetoHumanMusic The heart has no genre, play what feels right!
This is so effing great I can't believe it.
First holiday season on my own, by myself.. The idea of "fake it till you make it" really screams at me in this song. Thank you, Daniel.. 🖤
Such a beautiful thing you've created here, captures so many things I relate to regarding the holidays.
I have loved watching you evolve as an artist over all these years 😭💕
Thanks My man. Coming up on the anniversary of my mom's death. She liked you before she was gone. Big hugs brethren.
Great holiday song. Well done!
What a year its been, I'm sad it's reached its finale. But I look forward to the future of your music career. Been a fan from the start, what a time to be alive.
Daniel makes nothing, but straight fuckin’ bangers. With easily one of the most multifaceted voices.
I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about this, but a couple of listens later you've won me over. It's a great song, and a great outro for a stupid year made bearable by this project.
This video is hilarious and awesome. Cheesy, in a good way. All the real hope and inherent fakeness of the holidays in one video, and the song is beautiful. Kudos!
I'm glad to see people understand the point of the visualizer. 🖤🖤🖤
That was quite an experience. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with us. Depressing af ;)
What an ending.
I will miss this project so much 😭
What a great way to end this project! Great work Daniel, you've kept me coming back for more every month.
Absolutely stunning song! SO happy to see you work with Chris Harms on this! It's like a present to see two of my favorite artists co-creating something so genuine. You've really outdone yourself.
The best part about this song is how much fun you seemed to have doing it. Like watching an Erock video.
I got so emotional from this song.
- You're great Daniel!
Totally blown away. I'm pretty convinced you can sing nearly anything and i'll love it.
I can't believe it's finally come -- "The 12th of 12 Total Songs" delivered as promised. Daniel, you've proven to everyone and yourself, that anything really is possible. This is no trivial accomplishment and now send out the CD's to us Patreon members. Then, as thin as Jack Skellington -- Whooshh.... up the chimney !!!
A hellish SCREAM into Zero's - lightbulb nose - shinning so bright: "A Merry Aesthetic Perfection to All, and to All a Good Night".
Daniel, my friend, you gave purpose and meaning during the Covid19-lockdown and helped, so, many to keep our sanity. You did it and I'm grateful and honored to have been some, small part of it all.
Love ya man... !!
I like it. You could tell he was trying to hold himself back. He is super energetic in his other videos I don't think he is used to slower softer stuff! =)
This is awesome! You really outdid yourself with the 12 songs in 12 months installment!
7 years now i been listing to aesthetic perfection😂🖤💯
Thanks for sticking with me!
Saaame
Same here! Antibody got me in 2014! 😁
This is why I love AP/Daniel.. I never know what kind of song to expect.. and every time I absolutely love it. His voice is so versatile. Congrats on completing the 12 songs project!
Nunca me esperé una canción como esta,sin embargo es precisamente por eso que siento es la canción de mi vida. Después de años de vivir en depresión logré salir adelante a mis 33 y formar un hogar. Y mientras escucho esta canción admito que agradezco el estar viva, sana en un hogar lleno de amor. Un abrazo para todos quienes pasamos o están pasando por esto.
🫂
LOVE this Daniel ❤🧡
As always, great... heart strings...
I was really not expecting this type of song from Aesthetic perfection, but i'm not complaining, it slaps like usual
so much work, lots of sweat and tears, so many ideas to finish your experiment....love every single moment of it...great idea and mega execution
These last 12 months have been a massive success!! A huge congratulations, and a huge thanks 💖

So unlike your usual stuff, but so amazing and beautiful!
Gotta go out with a bang!
Spotify told me you were my top artist with 1689 minutes this year. Big thank you for that 12 month project! It was great knowing a new song awaits every month. Really loved it and I'm still listening to them all the time. So many different directions and tones. Enjoy the holidays and your well earned break👍
I love your softer/slower songs like this 🥰
Wonderfull song! Playing on strings of my soul!
Listening you since Violent Emotion and love every change in your music style.
This changes shows how much talented and deep artist u are!
Well that was surprisingly melancholy, ironic, and beautiful… I don’t even know what I’m feeling, just that I AM feeling… Well done.
Hands down my favorite AP album now. Perfect ending. I really hope this is pressed on vinyl so I can spin it all the time.
I love how the song is not far from your style,
12 songs in 12 months as it happened so fast, thank you for letting us be part of this journey
OMG, Daniel. That was such a beautiful, rich and unexpected song... Love it!!!
PS: I might've cried once. Good job!
long....deep...breath. the darkest of them all..hauntingly gripping,like the telltale heart
Sweetness!
Loved the guitar solo
Gave me the chills. You're such an amazing artist. Thank you so much for doing this album. It brought me so much joy each month, including this month! I adore you so, so much. You're just AMAZING.
It’s so beautiful 😭
Unexpected and I thought at some point it was going to get heavier, but, you kept the songs vibe the same throughout.. I liked the lyrics too.
This needs more likes, goddamit. Best Holidays song ever.
So glad you like it! 🖤
The song boom... the creativity behind the video is a yes on so many levels.
"ITS CHRISTMAS"
This hits home so very deeply! My holidays summed up perfectly! What a perfection ending to the year!

You're nuts, Daniel 😂💗
I just reflect what I see in the world. So if I'm nuts, then it's because the world is nuts.
Beautiful Daniel. Unexpected, but it love it.
Awesome acting! Great!
Hits deep for me, far away from your usual works but I feel you had a reason to make this. All I can say is thank you, the whole thing is amazing. Incredibly well crafted.
Thank you for your kind words. So glad it resonated with people. 🖤🖤🖤
MEINEN GLÜCKWUNSCH! DU HAST ES GESCHAFFT! Wieder ein Mega tolles Lied!!! Wirklich ein passender Abschluß für das Projekt/ Album und das Jahr. Einfach nur schön! DANKE für dieses einmalige Projekt! Das hat mich durch dieses Jahr gerettet!!! Leider wirklich leider bin ich heute Abend auf einer Weihnachtsfeier. Ich wäre soooo gerne Live beim Finale dabei gewesen. Allen anderen wünsche ich einen Mega Abend und Prooost!
Ich bin 64 Jahre alt.Ich kann es nicht verstehen,das ich noch nie von Euch gehört habe.Ihr wart die Vorband von Lindemann und ich fand Eure Musik direkt total toll.Jetzt kenne ich Euch und liebe Eure Musik.❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰😘
This song is spectacular this deserves at least 1 million veiws
What a great series, excited to see the future of AP, love how much work the band Daniels put into this video performance.
This hits me right in the feels. So much is said in this music video without even saying anything. Love it!
You saved my life.
Absolutely awesome yet can't help getting melancholy while listening to this amazing masterpiece.
I think melancholy was the intent.
It took me a second. He's Amish?! ohhh,... NM. As always, the music is spot on. The journey I am sure was not easy. Coming up with something each month, recording, performing, and making it entertaining, you nailed it. I am grateful to have been able to listen and been apart of your journey. THANK YOU!!!
And for a moment I thought it was about to be a song stating that all you want for Christmas is 🌮
On some level I’m sure it is…
I love this so much. Thank you 🥺💚🥰
Nice to see a Polyvox synth
also a nice hommage to Krarftwerk
This is a nice outro for the album
I love it. 😁
This one made me cry. Thank you for this incredible year of singles. I hope your safe and warm for the holidays. Take care, Daniel.
Bro, this is a great tune! Love it. Man what a great challenge and respect for going through with it! :)
I reminisce with all my ghosts 🎶
This is beautiful
Daniel does it again. 😁👍
I'm loven it.
Never Expected to hear this one. You were right, Daniel, I was not ready for this type of Christmas tune)))
Very nice.
Yeah im alone and lost my dreams after so much hard work, im just done. Sitting here lost and not know what to do.
This is a sweet little Weihnachen Carol, AP Style. I believe you are a genre unto yourself Daniel.👏👏👏👏🎄😊
absolutely lovely !!
Man this 12th song is amazing i really love your work and i hope see more of Aesthetic Perfection in a near future thanks for make this awonse songs ❤
Woah, you're an amazing talent. This is perfect, this is aesthetic, must be Aesthetic Perfection! So many different styles, that voice, nice! Your videos are great too! I'm a silent lurker for years now. Greetings from Germany from an old EBM/Industrial fan. Thank you, just thank you! I wish you (and all readers here) a fantastic remaining 2021! See you 2022. :)
Danke für die netten Worte, Martin! Grüße aus Österreich! 🖤🖤🖤
@@ClosetoHumanMusic Oh? Du bist aus Österreich? Jetzt bin ich aber durchaus überrascht. :)
@@martinleidel Ich komme aus Los Angeles aber wohne mittlerweile in Österreich! 🙂
@@ClosetoHumanMusic Tapferes kleines Land! Also Österreich. :D Dein Deutsch liest sich perfekt! Du wohnst also gleich "um die Ecke".
Anyway you deserve much much more subscribers. One thing which alway interested me (being a choir singer myself), doesn't that "screaming" part destroy your voice over time? I mean isn't that kind of "dangerous" in the long term?
Omg, why am I getting a bing crosby vibe... hahaha love it!! HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM VYCIOUS ARTS STUDIOS!
I absolutely love this! I did not expect to hear a song like this when I clicked on the video. I really enjoy the softer side of Daniel. One of my absolute favorite AP songs is Lovesick, but this one might knock it down to 2nd.
another wonderful song! you look so happy :D
Such a lovely song to celebrate the holidays with. Thank you so much for all the amazing music that you've been treating us to this whole year. I've been a fan of yours for over 10 years and have meet you several times. It always amazes me to see the progression of your music over the years. Love ya Dan 🖤😊🖤
Excellent and with a touch of the "LOLs" added!
Merry christmas and a happy new year to you Daniel. Thank you for this ride, keep on a happy face. ^^
My new favorite Christmas song❣ so much fucking talent 👏 🙌
Congratulations on the song and the successful project, its been a fun ride.
