from the album CLOSE YOUR EYES (sep 13 2024) PREORDER: www.twimc.se music by ionnalee and Claes Björklund visual by ionnalee and John Strandh www.ionnalee.com
never was as little lost in a riddle standing in the middle of someone else’s high put on top to make you shine in a scent of sweat and pine and preaching lines that really got inside my head should have known i am a sailor meant to roam the seas and that’s where I belong and not floating on a wire the weakness in a genius mind is stupidity surrounds it some silver lining uh uh no way i'm not your cherry not lighting your dark with my luminary it’s not a song i’d sing it’s not my place to be forever spinning in a hurricane the laws of attraction for similar imperfections become swift transactions when the world is growing wild will only itch and tether reaching away forever away from each other uh uh no way i'm not your cherry not lighting your dark with my luminary it’s not a song i’d sing Ii’s not my place to be forever spinning in a hurricane i'm not your cherry i’m not using your worn vocabulary it’s not my song you sing it i’ll be over here forever dancing in the rain
to me, this feels like the closest we'll ever get to her first scrapped solo album ('mouth of a river'), reflecting her own thoughts after the 'bounty' album and serving as a prequel to 'blue' in the sense of music in the digital age and stuff..... while 'blue' was likely more about the freedom of the internet, this one definitely carries a sense of critique after those 10 years (ahem, tiktok)
this era is just the gift that keeps on giving, every video has that iamamiwhoami magic that pushed the boundaries between music and sound. She also manages to create music that sounds fresh that stands the test of time
I’m grateful for being in the dimension where you exist. It’s everything and it makes me feel proud and nostalgic of being alive. How beautiful is your art. How magical, hard working and unique are you.
There is such a breadth of sound in this and La La Love. Confident, exuberant and exciting! I love how each of your projects has such a distinctive tone!
The video is so poignant. I feel it. The sensitivity to your fragility and rawness right now. The empty chair at the end as an homage to your dear friend 🥹🪑 There are scenes that call back to many moments of you before. 🍒👏📸🥛🍓🎂 Also just to say a huge thank you, for proceeding with this single release, in the midst of everything that has been happening. 🙏🏼 It can't have been easy. Your courage does not go unnoticed. And I hope you are all slowly healing ok in time.🍒💔🩹❤️🩹
So many references to previous songs and albums (bounty, BLUE, the summer never ended the damage was all mine), the style is so distinctive and hauntingly beautiful. I'm living through history with these new songs. Jonna Lee is in my heart forever
I love you so much. I really needed this song. I get my finger amputated tomorrow...my neice that was supposed to take me to my appointment got arrested and so many things are changing in my world..but this song was the first one to pop up on my algorithm and it's only a few hours old. I feel like you made it just for me. Thank you.
Waiiitttttt a minute! There’s a bit of another track playing at the end! I wonder if I can Shazam it! True iamamiwhoami style, dropping hints leaving us wanting more! Love it.
I hope you and your family are doing well, I heard the news. I myself had some bad news as my friend was beaten to death after a football match a few weeks ago. I'm glad you're back though, I've been listening to your albums everyday for a decade now and I would love to make another music video in honor of your artistry ❤ I'm thinking violent playground.... 🥰
Seeing her live twice really hits, such a unique listen and sound. True to her visions to visually show music in a different light. Pure music and this song instantly grew to one of my favorites! Will always support. Love you queen!
the CHERRIES frozen in time, perfectly, crystalized, eternal and then the crystals have been dissolved with the time and the cherries still beautiful but fragile as the time goes by. Ionna, your work tal with us, you're an awesome artist,hope to see you soon in RIO DE JANEIRO
When I saw this in the YT feed I had to clean my room, light a candle, make a mojito, and get out my best headphones. It's a fun little ritual I've established over the last few releases! (some of your older music accidentally became associated with some bad memories, so I'm making an effort to instill positive associations.)
if it helps, the older music saved me from a really horrible situation. Her music gave me the power to (literally) fight for life and finally embrace being a girl after a lifetime of paternal abuse. idk if it helps, but thought share
@@raleighnoel Heard and felt. I'm glad you are here to share your experience. Similarly for me, the older albums were a much needed comfort and inspiration in a dark chapter. I suppose its a lack of resolution that makes it difficult to engage in anything that reminds me of that time. But I'm sure I'll find a way to reconcile with the past someday, and all that will be left are the good memories. Like the first time I heard 'Thin' while cycling during a forming storm in Florida. Zooming down a trail with the wind at my back; the tempo change hit, and it gave me the most intense full body chills. ...I'll focus on those memories. Whoops, didn't mean to type a novela. I get carried away.
you are always have top tier writing. in my interpretation, you spoke about your artistic journey of self-discovery and the realization that your true path lies in embracing individuality and artistic integrity, rather than succumbing to the pressures of commercial success that most artists very likely once or often have to face or being demanded. "I'm not your cherry" you remain to bold of not being molded to fit demands, choosing instead to explore and stay true to your authentic self. Which i always love about you, you only care about your art and the community, even tho i wish you all the worldly success, i respect and adore your authenticity, that also inspire me the most as someone who wants to pursue music ❤
you know exactly what you're doing to us, that's incredible feeling, such a whole way behind to become who we are today, thank you and your team to the moon
Never was as little Lost in a riddle Standing in the middle Of someone else's high Put on top to make you shine in A scent of sweat and pine and Preaching lines that Really got inside my head Should have known I am a sailor Made to roam the seas and That's where I belong and Not floating on a wire The weakness in a genius mind is Stupidity surrounds it Some silver lining Oh oh, no way I'm not your cherry Not lighting your dark with my luminary It's not a song I'd sing It's not my place to be Forever spinning in a hurricane The laws of attraction For similar imperfections Become swift transactions When the world is growing wild Will only itch and tether Reaching away forever Away from each other Oh oh, no way I'm not your cherry Not lighting your dark with my luminary It's not a song I'd sing It's not my place to be Forever spinning in a hurricane I'm not your cherry I'm not using your worn vocabulary It's not my song, you sing it I'll be over here forever dancing in the rain (Forever spinning in a hurricane)
never was as little
lost in a riddle
standing in the middle
of someone else’s high
put on top to make you shine in
a scent of sweat and pine and
preaching lines that
really got inside my head
should have known i am a sailor
meant to roam the seas and
that’s where I belong and
not floating on a wire
the weakness in a genius mind is
stupidity surrounds it
some silver lining
uh uh no way
i'm not your cherry
not lighting your dark with my luminary
it’s not a song i’d sing
it’s not my place to be
forever spinning in a hurricane
the laws of attraction
for similar imperfections
become swift transactions
when the world is growing wild
will only itch and tether
reaching away forever
away from each other
uh uh no way
i'm not your cherry
not lighting your dark with my luminary
it’s not a song i’d sing
Ii’s not my place to be
forever spinning in a hurricane
i'm not your cherry
i’m not using your worn vocabulary
it’s not my song you sing it
i’ll be over here forever dancing in the rain
Her wrapped in plastic, the cherries, the wooden cabin... so many bounty references 😍
All iamamiwhoami albums! Some callbacks to Kill, Last Dancer, and Fountain in there too
Like Laura Palmer 😅

DUDE.....BOUNTY ?!?!?!?! SHE EXPLICITLY SAID: The album is continuation of BLUE.......
@@TWIMC_Tarsyo Yes, and yet she brings LOTS of bounty references in this video, which everybody can easily notice, so calm down.
BLUE and BOUNTY had a baby. beautiful visuals and music as always. 🍒♥
i love that she's always known exactly who she is, and always remembers to play ✨
her music is always so soothing. Takes me to a cloudy and windy landscape
Each of your songs and videos for 14 years, leave me speechless and with my heart screaming.
And this was not the exception.
♥️👑

Incredible! I feel like I’m transported back to 2010.
There is such a breadth of sound in this and La La Love. Confident, exuberant and exciting! I love how each of your projects has such a distinctive tone!
my favorite release from this album so far
The video is so poignant. I feel it. The sensitivity to your fragility and rawness right now. The empty chair at the end as an homage to your dear friend 🥹🪑
There are scenes that call back to many moments of you before. 🍒👏📸🥛🍓🎂
Also just to say a huge thank you, for proceeding with this single release, in the midst of everything that has been happening. 🙏🏼
It can't have been easy.
Your courage does not go unnoticed.

Why what's been happening?
So many references to previous songs and albums (bounty, BLUE, the summer never ended the damage was all mine), the style is so distinctive and hauntingly beautiful. I'm living through history with these new songs. Jonna Lee is in my heart forever
L O V E seeing the reds/oranges added to the iam palette, feels fresh
Ionna knows exactly how to refresh the past. Absolutely killer!
She's amazing ❤ she was born to make a difference with music which connects our hearts and souls to the earth 🌎
I sounds so good... reminds me of the sound of the first years of this project, thanks for your music!
I love you so much. I really needed this song. I get my finger amputated tomorrow...my neice that was supposed to take me to my appointment got arrested and so many things are changing in my world..but this song was the first one to pop up on my algorithm and it's only a few hours old. I feel like you made it just for me. Thank you.
Waiiitttttt a minute! There’s a bit of another track playing at the end! I wonder if I can Shazam it!
True iamamiwhoami style, dropping hints leaving us wanting more! Love it.
I see ionnalee visuals. I click PLAY.
Another beautiful chapter! Love this so much! Your work continues to blow my mind. Always creating new islands. ❤ 🍒
I hope you and your family are doing well, I heard the news. I myself had some bad news as my friend was beaten to death after a football match a few weeks ago. I'm glad you're back though, I've been listening to your albums everyday for a decade now and I would love to make another music video in honor of your artistry ❤ I'm thinking violent playground.... 🥰
What happened?
this is everything longtime fans could ask for. im so happy! amazing
It's just SOULFUL. IDK how else to describe it. And beautiful 😍
Rune och Pär brought me här. Somliga är lika som bär. Seriously beyond words stunning ionnalee.
Seeing her live twice really hits, such a unique listen and sound. True to her visions to visually show music in a different light. Pure music and this song instantly grew to one of my favorites! Will always support. Love you queen!
she winked at me and my husband and i started to cry lmfao
🍒 LOVE all the visual references to the entire body of work so far..
Scene of tap your Glass ❤❤
So close! that’s a new scene
I love how self-referential this project is. The feelings of nostalgia are strong and titillating ✨️🍒
the queen of literally never growing old! Gosh ionna, share whit us ur beauty secrets!!!
Love both new tracks so far, Ionna is on fire!
the CHERRIES frozen in time, perfectly, crystalized, eternal and then the crystals have been dissolved with the time and the cherries still beautiful but fragile as the time goes by. Ionna, your work tal with us, you're an awesome artist,hope to see you soon in RIO DE JANEIRO
OMG ionna this is ANOTHER LEVEL. My breath was stolen away. AMAZING
I love seeing facebook roots family out in the wild
I love all your music. Best artist ever! Eagerly anticipating the new album! :) Made a new youtube account to write this.
This music has soul and it's bringing my soul back to me. Thank you Iona ❤️.
A double album!!!! And vibes from previous videos!!! What a day!!
With double album she means one in English, on in Swedish.
@@thisismyindustry ah ok
This song is pure bliss in my ears. Oh ionna you are so loved ❤️
Напоминает раннее творчество, а оно самое любимое.
This is gorgeous! my God, I'm glad you back 💙
One listen and I'm hooked. Making me want to go all the way back to the Kin album. Anyone else hearing a bit of The Cure towards the end?
Stunning!!!! Absolutely stunning as always. I thank you every day for your work 💙🍒
The visuals are always on point! So perfect! They remind of what have gone but bringing something fresh and new with every new video
THIS IS AMAZING. I’M SO OBSESSED WITH THIS SONG
Waiting you arrival to Mexico City someday jeje 🥺 in the meantime, as always, a pleasure to hear and see new material 😍
When I saw this in the YT feed I had to clean my room, light a candle, make a mojito, and get out my best headphones. It's a fun little ritual I've established over the last few releases!

I should clean my room... 🥲

Thank you for always reminding me to come back to myself.
A gift from the universe and ionnalee herself! Thank you!

That's really amazing! Thank you so much for your vision and art
Was feeling wounded and heartbroken. This track helps

One of the best artists of the last few decades❤
Какая нежность🥰💖💞💕
Que maravilha, esta música é pura arte!

Beautiful! The synths towards the end make me think of Nils Bech - A sudden sickness
O-M-G!!!!!! i'M WITHOUT WORDS! amazing song and DAT VIDEO ENDING.... 🤟🤟🤟🤘🤘🤘
I love the switching between light and dark again, she did that too in the previous video makes me think of the Kin era! The plastic is super Bounty
Beautiful song! My dear Jonna, you are amazing! ❤
❤💜 Another master piece... feel your music and words deeply.

I have never felt this way about anything...🍒
Love everything you do ❤
Thank you so much for your art❤
Tap your glass!!! I’m waiting for you here in Recife in December ❤
Love it the audiovisual.. it reminds me the bounty style
Never was as little
Lost in a riddle
Standing in the middle
Of someone else's high
Put on top to make you shine in
A scent of sweat and pine and
Preaching lines that
Really got inside my head
Should have known I am a sailor
Made to roam the seas and
That's where I belong and
Not floating on a wire
The weakness in a genius mind is
Stupidity surrounds it
Some silver lining
Oh oh, no way
I'm not your cherry
Not lighting your dark with my luminary
It's not a song I'd sing
It's not my place to be
Forever spinning in a hurricane
The laws of attraction
For similar imperfections
Become swift transactions
When the world is growing wild
Will only itch and tether
Reaching away forever
Away from each other
Oh oh, no way
I'm not your cherry
Not lighting your dark with my luminary
It's not a song I'd sing
It's not my place to be
Forever spinning in a hurricane
I'm not your cherry
I'm not using your worn vocabulary
It's not my song, you sing it
I'll be over here forever dancing in the rain
(Forever spinning in a hurricane)
Unica musica me cativo ❤
masterpiece, i love this song, thanks again
Love the song, love the references. So good 🍒
Esse clipe me deixou mudo e a única palavra que consegue sair da minha boca é OBRIGADO 💖
This album's gonna be soo fucking good
Que música e clipe mais lindos, estou todo arrepiado
Hermoso 🖤🫶🏻
LOVE IT SO MUCH BEST SONG IN THE ALBUM
