Looking past the fact that this song is actually about incest, my dad overdosed after my (now ex) step-mother, who was abusive to both him and his children (myself and my sister,) He lived, thankfully. The lyric, "And there's been a stain in the carpet, since our father took those pills, and nothing has felt real since then." hits really hard. Eventually, my dad, myself and my sister all were in such a deep state of depression that we started letting our childhood home fall apart, hence the relatability of the "stain in the carpet." The abuse we endured caused us all to have incredibly dissociative personalities, and our biological mother passed away last year, one of the few people who made my sister and I feel a bit of hope in a world that seems so dim. I love you, mother Ethel.

This beautiful song is a story of incest. Two siblings. Their mother died at birth and their father took his own life with pills. Growing up alone in this unhealthy environment having only one another they started to fall in love. "THEY LET THIS TOWN FALL DOWN AROUND US LIKE WE ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WOULD": the society suspects and judges! ALL THESE DREAMS OF VIOLATIONS STARTING COME TRUE: The girl confesses that only with him (her brother) feels safe and although she knows what they are doing is wrong DEEP DOWN SHE DOESN'T WANT TO SAY NO. They don't feel embarrassed but they feel FILLED WITH DIRT: They can't fight it and this urge is destroying them emotionally and socially, that's why she feels that THEY WERE BETTER OFF DYING WITH HER (THEIR MOTHER) AT BIRTH.
It takes a lot of talent to make a beautiful song out of a horrific situation like this. But she absolutely pulls it off. Other songs that are kind of similar are heaven's only days down the road by Shelby lynne, Nebraska by Bruce springsteen, and John Wayne gacy by Sufjan stevens. Those ones are all about murder instead, but it has a similar vibe of creating a beautiful piece of art out of a horrible situation
this is probably my favorite of all her songs. it reminds me so much of supernatural but it's also just a gorgeous song with great lyrics. i particularly love "and all these dreams and violations starting to come true"
@@flores727 technically it's about siblings Ada & Jessaby from the movie "Jug Face" but I wouldn't be surprised if Supernatural influenced it as well, especially the idea of the motel, since there are no motels in that film.
@@twochildreninamotel Well she said in her (now deactived) tumblr she shipped Wincest, so it wouldn’t be weird that some imagery from Supernatural and elements from Sam and Dean’s relationship seeped into her lyrics.
This is the most hauntingly beautiful song I have ever heard... She is beyond talented I can't even think of a word to truly describe her and her art ❤ I feel lucky to even be alive at the same time to be able to experience this and watch her flourish
This is incredible. I'm fast becoming a super fan of her music.... Interestingly, I'm usually not that captivated by lyrics. I'm a musician myself...and the instrumental aspect of music, the timbre, the actual _sound_ is what normally sucks me in. BUT...a big part of my love of Ethal Cain's music is the lyrical content. It's SO good, so evocative and full of images and ideas. The music itself is also excellent....often simple, supportive, with this uncanny gothic sensibility that is hard to put to words. Her music somehow reminds me of Twin Peaks.....just the surreal dreamlike slightly dark _vibe_ of it all. It's kinda cool to be so captivated by LYRICS given how unusual that is for me. This is genuine poetry.
her lyrics are beautiful and poetic in themselves, made me a big fan of hers too! her way of telling a story is literal art and i’m so glad to have found her ♥️
Just found this song two days ago. Feels like a secret letter I could truthfully write, even though some of the details are different. Heartbreaking and breathtaking. Thank you for this song 💙
i always have a different favorite of hers every day lol but i do agree that this is one of her greatest. i have no doubt the completed will be mind blowing 😍😍
@@josephinepineconey ... that's nice to know that you, as a virtual social media baron, thinks that this is Ethel's best ...LOL!!!... I am obsessed by the beauty of this beautifully original song, it is so tender.
@@josephinepineconeyI can comprehend her kvetch, but why is the sharing via Soundcloud the problem? Not that you are her spokesperson, but you probably have more insight than I !!!
@@Umbrey_Dunctum it's not an issue of sharing to soundcloud per se, but rather what music. as of a few months ago at least, she was okay with people sharing all the demos that she had released under the "ethel cain" name; it was stuff released under her previous project/name that she didn't want to be shared. of course, now that she removed all the demos from soundcloud, it is probably hard for newcomers to tell which is which, especially since ppl uploading the stuff she doesn't like do so under the "ethel cain" name:/ sorry, i know this comment is from awhile ago.
Saw the song Michelle Pfeiffer posted on a Lady Gaga fan site of all places. It was like 90s Liz Phair heaven back to life. This song is even better. Ethel, you have a new fan.
it’s such a moving song 🥲🥰 (i hope whatever situation(s) you’re going through pass soon. i’ve been through horrible periods of depression myself. sending lots of ♥️ to u dear)
Crazy that you say this. I grew up in rural Minnesota my dad died and my mom ended up moving into a huge house with a family of fundamentalist christians who had a church in their basement. there were about 6 or 7 VERY large families (anywhere from 5 to 10 kids each) that were part of this insular comunity that pretty much shuned the outside world. It was pretty much a cult. But her music really reminds me of how i grew up and the people surrounding me at that time. I was in my teens the first time i saw a movie or heard music that wasnt christian and played by a member of the group.
Hi. 🤟 Touching every Ethel Cain vid comment gallery I find. Hoping to promote it by driving the algorithm to suggest it to others. I was a few years late to the party.
Well now this song has provided me with my morning "happy therapy" I better go drink a fifth of Jack to bring me back to feeling "normal" again. I bet if someone would add some strings to this song it would go viral.
I'm ol'Munny remember that, my true eternal soulmate and love of my entirety, you and I have always known something that everyone else is just beginning to understand. I am in love with you in absolution. My soul, My body,my spirit, my mind, I vow to you. Tills Vallhallelujah.. Awomb, the one I arrived in, Awomb, The one's we have and hold, Awomb, the ones we leave behind. I am.
no clue, but i personally see it as an alternate take on the story of adam and eve. god’s killed himself and left his two children in a motel room to make love into their own graves. im not ethel tho so take my interpretation with a grain of salt ☺️
Tut mir leid, wenn das falsch rüberkommt, ich benutze Google Übersetzer. Ethel Cain hat einige Alben herausgebracht. Ihre neueste „Predigertochter“ ist ihr neuestes Album in voller Länge 😊
unfortunately this is just my fan page for mother cain’s music 😅 but def follow her page 🥰 she’s very responsive on her Twitter and Instagram @mothercain❤️
my personal take from it is being in a toxic relationship. being so codependent on someone that, ‘I don’t care what girls’ he ‘hurts, as long as’ he ‘comes home’ 😊
@@anatrindade6127 ethel has said in a past instalive that nicole will have a feature in it. right now though nicole is also working on her upcoming album, so it’s kinda in progress at the moment 😊

"We were better off dying with her at birth" is one of the most haunting and heartbreaking lyrics ive ever heard.
i love her delivery on the final "we were better off dying with her at birth". her voice is SOOO soft i love her so much
the way she delivers with such raw emotion 🥹😍😭

This is literally her best song to date. I hope someday she'll release it...
she's suppose to release her debut in 2022 from what I know. She has a TON of material
@@ardien.535 Wasn't inbred a debut album?
@@dovelovedove700 Inbred is an EP
@@ardien.535 she did and it was glorious
I love that photo of her.
Such a Twin Peaks vibe to it lol. Undersaturated, rainy, gothic, north-west vibes.....
The way the melody takes such an up lift at "The red and white stripes..." There's something classically American about it.
ethel is the true amaricana ❤️❤️❤️

This song ruined my life Love you Ethel

This is so weird 😭 like actually insane tbh
i feel like inbred and this one are kind of conected, in inbred she mentions an older brother and this song... idk
This track was titled "Inbred" before she scrapped it off the EP fot the actual "Inbred"
This is the most hauntingly beautiful song I have ever heard... She is beyond talented I can't even think of a word to truly describe her and her art ❤ I feel lucky to even be alive at the same time to be able to experience this and watch her flourish
ok this makes me cry: The red and white stripes above our bed have started tearing
And I’m just waiting for the stars to fall through

ethel has a way with words 🥰🥰
Absolute word smith! And such a beautiful voice.
Honestly! She’s the definition of a true artist
She confirmed her ep called Inbred, with the song "inbred". Maybe it's this one? It's coming out April 23rd
❤️ I will always be thankful for that special man and for that special time. That time was so precious, I use to pray I could relive it.
Out of all her song's I've listened to, this one is my favorite. The vibes in this and especially the lyrics just make me love it

i can't stop crying
This was the first ethal cain song ive ever heard. It reminds sm of jamie and cerise.
to me ethel cain is music for ex-cult kids
Crazy that you say this. I grew up in rural Minnesota my dad died and my mom ended up moving into a huge house with a family of fundamentalist christians who had a church in their basement. there were about 6 or 7 VERY large families (anywhere from 5 to 10 kids each) that were part of this insular comunity that pretty much shuned the outside world.

Damn, what a song
it’s my greatest obsession of hers
speechless.
