Lyrics:
Lookin’ like some clear skies
Have finally opened up my eyes
Livin’ in a lost time
The dawning of a brand new man
So much blood on our hands
The king and queen of being lonely
Children of the empire see
That we’re all lost
Comes a cost walking in the labyrinth without love
How much can you take
And when are you gonna be ok
Gain control of what we made
Instead of being afraid
Children of the empire say
That we’re long gone
In that eternal flame
Trying to break away
From the mess we made
Oh we don’t have time anymore to be afraid
We tend to live long that’s why so many things go wrong
People selling the young blood
I guess that’s the price you pay
Make desire but no one wins
Won’t the fire burn us in
Before we get a chance to love again
Children understand that they pay for their sins
Seize control of what they made
Before we all fade away
Children of the empire wanna change
Cause we’re long gone
In that eternal flame
Trying to break away
From the mess we made
Oh we don’t have time anymore
To be afraid, anymore
Children of the empire know
Know that they’re not free
Even though they wanna be free
We know that we’re not free
Even though
We wanna be free
#weyesblood #subpop #childrenoftheempire
this is the song of the century
You absolutely can (and should) slip this song into a Christmas playlist
This song is also in my black metal list. Its everywhere
She MUST be an angel!
My Queen never fails to make Album of the Year.
Favorite song on the album
Looking like some clear skies
Have finally opened up my eyes
Living in a lost time
The dawning of a brand-new man
So much blood on our hands
King and queen of being lonely
Children of the empire see
That we're all lost
Comes a cost walking in the labyrinth without love
How much can you take?
And when are you gonna be okay?
Gain control of what we made
Instead of being afraid
Children of the empire say
We're long gone
In that eternal flame
Trying to break away
From the mess we made
Oh, we don't have time anymore
To be afraid
We tend to live long
That's why so many things go wrong
People selling their young blood
I guess that's the price you pay
Make desire but no one wins
Won't the fire burn us in
Before we get a chance to love again?
Children understand that they pay for their sins
Seize control of what they made
Before we all fade away
Children of the empire wanna change
'Cause we're long gone
In that eternal flame
Trying to break away
From the mess we made
Oh, we don't have time anymore
To be afraid, anymore
Children of the empire know
Know that they're not free even though
They wanna be free
We know we're not free even though
We wanna be free
I'm starting to love this album already
ok
Listened to this song a lot while I was with an old friend and having good times together. Such a special song
im totally caught off guard by this. this reminds me of the protest music from the 60's -- we need it.
This is a protest song. It's about time artists started writing them again.
I mean rappers also write them but I get what you’re saying
Check Regina Spektor's Trapper and Fourrier or even Ed Sheeran's 2step. Fine exceptions from the rule.!Kalle from Finland
This is a Star Wars song.
Natalie is that you?
@@anthonymusto3537 Haha!
I had the pleasure to feel you in Milan as a opener for father Jhon Misty , let me tell you this you are the best female voice i ever heard in 33 years.
So beautiful song.
And a absolute honourable successor of Karen Carpenter. The same emotion and vibrato in your voice Weyes Blood
Yes! Saw her last night and couldn’t stop thinking about how similar in tone her voice is to Karen’s.
Why am I only finding her now, I absolutely love her, binge listening to her albums, a true god send.
YES!! I may be considered an old lady at 63 , but I grew up as a child of the hippie generation… and through the 60’s, 70’s , the MTV great years and now this angel! Truly one in a billion sound!
Música de otro universo, la siento muy cósmica y espacial . ❤❤arte absoluto
I bet you hate being pigeonholed as an artist. But when I first heard you, your music reminded me of Rufus Wainwright. I don't know how you feel about that but it made me feel something. And more.
I'll echo some of the comments below and say this is reminiscent of Brian Wilson at his very best. Thank you, Natalie Mering!
Oh yes, truly! 🤩God bless Brian Wilson and his legacy. :) Joy and thrills.
Brian Wilson and The Doors
okay i hear it!
The Carpenters meet The Beach Boys in the summer of ‘76.
She really made a song about the meme
"Sorry kid, world's ending before you can legally rent a car."
Wow , best song I’ve heard in a long long time . A beautiful combination of Joni Mitchell and The Beach Boys . Can’t get a bigger compliment than that !! Love it
And Elliott Smith
Karen Carpenter meets Brian Wilson.
And Aimee Mann.
4:48 Gives me the same chills as when Good Vibrations breaks down to just the organ.
it realy has all the vibes from beach boys, LOVE IT
You know back in the 70's we expected memorable pop like this to come along as regular as clockwork.
this feels like a new pinnacle for baroque pop, absolutely stunning and powerful
wtf is baroque?
@@chunky2155 not this
@@chunky2155 baroque can refer to a period in classical music (as well as art) which dated from around 1610 to 1750, baroque pop on the other hand refers to a style of rock or pop music which combines classical music elements with majestic arrangements, and ambitious pop structures. this song is an example of the latter, what with its sweeping instrumental paired with Weyes Blood’s sense of pop melody mastery
@@joeagger borrrinngggggg
@@chunky2155 why are you listening then? 💀
Tu hermosa voz y la melodía de tus canciones hacen magia ✨❤️
speaj egnlsiuh
@chunky2155, don’t speak.
This song just makes the whole album for me. So glad to have stumbled across Weyes Blood
Me too. Just found this artist a week ago. Where have I been? Love the whole album!!!
I'm so obsessed with her music. Help.
This is not just a song, is poetry, pure poetry
its a song
It's a song 🤦
@@raihanrazak2743 u get it
songs are poetry
It' s a song, é uma canção: bonita!
Giving me strong Beach Boys vibes and I love it. 👌🏽
pet sounds
thats giving me good vibrations fr
totally
I hear more Laura Nyro
great recommendation like i legit never heard of this guys.
Awesome! Don't pass up Titanic Rising or any of her three other albums.
Carpenters influence, that 70s twist. So good.
Great song! Channeling her inner Aimee Mann. Excellent.
Felt everything
it’s giving Brian Wilson
Yes ❤
This is so amazing. I needed this album. Now I'm in that dreamy headspace again as I was with her last album. I haven't listened to her in quite a while and almost forgot how much I love her.
This album is really incredible. Such a beautiful rollercoaster of emotions.
This is gorgeous! Kudos!!
~ by farrr,,, my fave tune at the mo .
It's got me ~ shared everywhere
Yet again I find myself just absolutely enamored by her music. She is just unreal.
¡Maravillosa canción!!!
stunning
First 30 seconds and i’m in love with the song
check out the rest of it
@@chunky2155 it get´s even better
Always beautiful music. Your voice reminds me of Joni Mitchell, Carly Simon.
And a bit of Karen Carpenter.
with glitters of Brian Eno and the ghosts of other 60s and 70s artists
And a little touch of Carole King!
.....hearing some Laura Nyro in there, TOO.....
.....and of COURSE, Aimee.....
THANK GOODNESS
I love your natural ballad voice, i thought that sound had been abandoned forever (an industry fuelled on tormented emo frailty and that operatic vocal twerking which passes for soul nowadays).
good news it hasnt been abandoned
There's many others in independant music! ;)
💙🌙 My favorite artist with Lana Del Rey. Perfect voices, so sweet so deep, so pure with perfect melodies, enchanting lyrics, you just have to dive into this atmosphere and wrap yourself like with a blanket and take of for space.
Gloriosa Nataly¡
She’s always the best
I've just discovered this artist. Reminds me of Joan Baez...
Welcome, behold the GOAT
Weyes Blood she's like JONI MITCHELL and like LAURA NYRO.
Excuse the caps lock BUT THIS IS MY JAM.
i will not excuse ur caps lock. you are in jail sir.
Amo tu voz y tu forma de hacer música!!!!!
the poetry of this age calling out the horror of the last century. We inherented the crisis of capitalism. This song tries to make sense of the moment we are in historically
The greatest horror of the past century was not Capitalism, nor was it Marxism. It was Modernist Imperialism dressed up to look like charity and propagandizing itself as the Bringer of Freedoms.
@@jamescantrell6956 Imperialism is the Highest Stage of Capitalism to quote Lenin
i am a child of the empire
yasss
same but also the empire needs to die
i want to sob
I had to check that this wasn't a Figure 8 era Elliott Smith song. By which I mean it's great! Lovely stuff.
Break with the democrats, republicans, and all the bosses' parties, build the revolutionary workers party!
Based.
!!!! yes
Start your own business, don't others profit from your sweat.
Please dont bring up that circus of clowns here on this post. But yes, I agree
I'm Enamored.❤?
fuck yeah seeing her in NC in February what an amazing artist
Whoa she sounds so much like Aimee Mann.
I just heard this performed live on NPR. Simply incredible!
Temazo.
Sheer beauty. Looking forward to seeing her live on the south coast in June!
It was amazing wasn’t it?
que lindaaaaaaaaaaaa
Hopefully we get a Music Video eventually.
~ and again
The chord structure is giving me Radiohead - Creep vibes
Karen Carpenter , Carole King , Joan Baez or what ?
ART.
xmas song
Scotty beam me up...very ,very good............stuff......
Pense que era karen carpenter :O
I swear the piano introduction of this song is the same as If Everyone Was Listening from Supertramp. Beautiful song for an extremely talented singer.
😍❤️👏
Her voice reminds me of Joni Mitchell
This. Is. Incredible.
Discovered her today, what an amazing and honest voice!
stunning every time with every song
This song is something else
VERY 70'S
Speechless. Once again.
Wow... from Ghana
best best BEST BEST BEST
perfect song idk
only gets better honestly i love you natalie
This is soooooooo good! 🙌
I saw Weyes at a trading post , recent-like.
Sounds like music; incredible
Beautiful, Master Peace💖🌷
So good to have more of this. Been stealing it today for free. And it’s making me a better person doing so. It’s so good
think of how she would feel knowing that.
How are you a better person for stealing?
Chunky, I don’t think she cares or this video wouldn’t exist. It would be behind a paywall. Random, I’m better for having heard the song, I meant. I was drunk when I wrote this.
@@shamanictour omg i was high when i commented my comment !
Joan Báez con voz melancólica.
I wish a music video of this would exist
Natalie, make a video please
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
pure songs
"how much can someone take and when will they be ok"
I love her Joni Mitchell influenced vocal style.
Can’t stop listening it’s sooo good !!
My instant fave🙏
