When I was little, we had to drag our decomposing cow, Oreo, out from under the shed and out into an open field where the vultures could peck her body. She died from being underfed. It really disturbed me when I was younger. I think about it often. Thank you, Adrienne.
the fact that I found this song 2 whole years after its release is the reason why you never say "music is dying." there's always beautiful stuff out there waiting to be found.
@@neftcakes hey thank you so much. I woke up to this comment. I really appreciate it. My actual music youtube is @nessnost if you feel like hearing more music
Adrianne lenkers music can either be interpreted as a cloudy but warm day in the summer just before a rainstorm, or a sunny day laying in a field of grass and feeling the warmth on your skin
this song has inspired my writing so much, i legit created an ingydar tag on AO3. The lyrics in this song are so beautiful, all prose should aspire to this level.
Fragilely, gradually and surrounding The horse lies naked in the shed Evergreen anodyne decompounding Flies draw sugar from his head His eyes are blueberries, video screens Minneapolis schemes and the dried flowers From books half-read The juice of dark cherries cover his chin The dog walks in and the crow lies in his jaw like lead Everything eats and is eaten, time is fed Early еvening, the pink ring swallows The sphеrical marigold terrain Sleepily, Venus sinks and hollows The stationed headlight of a plane You are as far from me as memory With fixtures fracture varyingly The juice of dark cherries cover my skin Six years in, no baby Everything eats and is eaten Ingydar bares a scar like a meteor Crystalline amber guilds her cheek Tambourine of the beech leaves lead her To the raven playing hide and seek Drying blueberries, figurines and the angel leans At the head of the bed The juice of dark cherries cover my chin The dog walks in and the crow lies in his smile like lead Everything eats and is eaten, time is fed Everything eats and is eaten Everything eats and is eaten Everything eats and is eaten Everything eats and is eaten Everything eats and is eaten
I really loved 'Songs & Instrumentals' when it came out but generally skipped over this song until 2 weeks ago, when stray dogs killed our neighborhood cat Budzgi who was semi-feral but lived at our porch for 3 years and was affectionate towards us. Seeing his mauled body was quite traumatizing, as well as arranging burial for a creature that was alive and well hours ago but I kept composure. For some reason, the next day I put on the album and when this song came up, I listened to the lyrics and completely broke down into tears - which is part of the healing, I guess. This is a perfect album from start to finish - poetic, mystical and melancholic
"his eyes are blueberries, video screens, minneapolis schemes and the dried flowers from books half-read the juice of dark cherries cover his chin the dog walks in and the crow lies in his jaw like lead"
I remember listening to this song constantly last fall. My agoraphobia was really bad then, and I listened to this when I was anxious to calm me down. Thank you. You cannot fathom how much comfort this song has brought me as well as many other people.
I don't know why, but this song makes me think of going to the mountains as a kid. I used to walk up the dirt road to the barn to see the cow and the chickens that belonged to the people who rented the barn from my grandma. I learned to milk a cow then. I'll never go there again. I miss it.
The line "everything eats, and is esten" oddly enough makes me think of a line from a completely different song. "Hungry makes us human", it doesn't make much sense, but it makes me think of it and it has a meaning I can't quite grasp yet. Also, if you've ever watched the Silent Voice, this song reminds me of Shoko's sister. The way she would take pictures of carcasses or dead insects to drive her sister away from death, it reminds me of this. Again that's only through vague association, but still. This song is beautiful :)
Can't believe melon head listed my fave song as the least favorite, JAAIIILLLL!!!

This is so beautiful ❤ your music bleeds into my heart so gently, it’s so painful yet comforting As an aspiring poet, you inspire me so much Thank you for everything!
My favorite track from this album keeps changing with each listen, but I keep coming back to this one. Does anyone know what 'Minneapolis schemes' means?
A 'housing scheme' would be an area developed with homes by a company, so I understand it as his (and her) eyes reflecting the years of life spent wandering the streets and lanes of whatever was once home. That's just my take though.
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
'Ingydar was the name of my great-aunt Becky’s horse, who passed away when I was a kid. But the song itself, I have to say, it isn’t really about that horse. That was just a fragment from the pool of ideas, or colors that I wove into the song, but yeah. “Everything eats and is eaten / Time is fed.” Have you ever used a vacuum cleaner, and there’s a button that sucks the cord back in?'
Absolutely nothing new about the song you recommended.. i'm from india and we have been hearing stuff like this for ages. For what it was, it was highly mediocre.

“Everything eats and is eaten, time is fed” absolutely breathtaking. Words are the closest thing to real magic.
@Lime Green Turban Gang you absolute genius you
@Lime Green Turban Gang that is what I was gonna say, words are magjc.
Naming is the origin of all things
yeeeesssss

Thank you, Adrienne.
wow. an incredible story for this song
Oreo lived on through the soil beneath her and the vultures above her
A happening like that to Oreo evokes so many thoughts that is especially plaguing to a young mind. Bless you.
the fact that I found this song 2 whole years after its release is the reason why you never say "music is dying." there's always beautiful stuff out there waiting to be found.
such truth. When I release things it feels like they die, but really its only the beginning of their life
@@vanessanost saw your comment and decided to check out your stuff. you're an amazing and skilled person! keep up the great work you are loved

This whole album is like a strange loopy beautiful dream in the woods
Perfect way to put it. It’s quite haunting too. You can also hear a nice wood cabin room ambiance.
I agree completely ♡
"Ingydar bares a scar like a meteor, crystalline amber guilds her cheek."
Daringly beautiful
this song has inspired my writing so much, i legit created an ingydar tag on AO3. The lyrics in this song are so beautiful, all prose should aspire to this level.
prose?
gosh Adrianne Lenker inspired me to WRITE prose.
I’ve based a few fanfics around her songs too, lol :)
the most vivid imagery i’ve ever gotten from a song. insanity
You should listen to neutral milk hotel
WHAT A COMMENT!!!!!!
this song sounds like a lonely summer afternoon
Sounds like rainy winter day.
i'm in love with both
I actually thought it sounded more like a foggy autumn morning
@@akdnskanauhsudha424 100% this
Fragilely, gradually and surrounding
The horse lies naked in the shed
Evergreen anodyne decompounding
Flies draw sugar from his head
His eyes are blueberries, video screens
Minneapolis schemes and the dried flowers
From books half-read
The juice of dark cherries cover his chin
The dog walks in and the crow lies in his jaw like lead
Everything eats and is eaten, time is fed
Early еvening, the pink ring swallows
The sphеrical marigold terrain
Sleepily, Venus sinks and hollows
The stationed headlight of a plane
You are as far from me as memory
With fixtures fracture varyingly
The juice of dark cherries cover my skin
Six years in, no baby
Everything eats and is eaten
Ingydar bares a scar like a meteor
Crystalline amber guilds her cheek
Tambourine of the beech leaves lead her
To the raven playing hide and seek
Drying blueberries, figurines and the angel leans
At the head of the bed
The juice of dark cherries cover my chin
The dog walks in and the crow lies in his smile like lead
Everything eats and is eaten, time is fed
Everything eats and is eaten
Everything eats and is eaten
Everything eats and is eaten
Everything eats and is eaten
Everything eats and is eaten

That's the most sadly gorgeous thing I've heard in a very long time. It has an ageless feel to it that I simply adore.
This song breaks me and rebuilds me every time I listen to it. Masterpiece!
Beautifully said
I remember listening to this song constantly last fall. My agoraphobia was really bad then, and I listened to this when I was anxious to calm me down.
Thank you.
You cannot fathom how much comfort this song has brought me as well as many other people.
A tad off topic, but do you have any tips on how to get over agoraphobia? I'm so scared to leave my house
This is pure poetry , wow , so sophisticated
"Evergreen anodyne decompounding, flies draw sugar from his head" is one of the smartest, most beautiful lyric I've head in a LONG time geez
Initially, I thought the hook was "Everything needs some defeating." And even though that's not it, for some reason that struck a chord with me.
sometimes you just hear what you need to hear
I don't know why, but this song makes me think of going to the mountains as a kid. I used to walk up the dirt road to the barn to see the cow and the chickens that belonged to the people who rented the barn from my grandma. I learned to milk a cow then. I'll never go there again. I miss it.
The most profound thing I listened to for a while
With a mix fragrant of darkness, I felt everything we had encountered through are developed based on the nature. Thank you for this music
The line "everything eats, and is esten" oddly enough makes me think of a line from a completely different song. "Hungry makes us human", it doesn't make much sense, but it makes me think of it and it has a meaning I can't quite grasp yet.

Oh I agree on a silent voice.

Can't believe melon head listed my fave song as the least favorite, JAAIIILLLL!!! Anyways here are the lyrics:

everything eats and is eaten

Thank you.🙏🏻
One of the prettiest songs ever. I love it.
Best new song of my year 2022. Guitar playing is gorgeous. Stunning. Phenomenal musician.
The guitar that comes in at 0:09 sounds like a piano somehow
Pianos and guitars are more connected than people may think
Pianos in theory are guitars. The strings are struck by a hammer.
This song has a wonderful sort of moody & turbulent texture to it 💛
The fact that is whole album is suddenly getting so famous on social media after three years of it being released…
BEAUTIFUL BRO HOLY FUCK THIS HAS ME FEELIN SOMETHING
there's so much wisdom in there. just beautiful and profound.
If words were water you would be The River of Rivers, Much Love, this track is amazing........
Adrianne is super talented on the guitar 🎸🎸🎸 and her singing voice is too legit to quit.
What a beautifully quiet, mesmerising song. Perfect for writing my character’s lover.
She makes the most gorgeous touching songs of all time
who up yearning
guilty ☝️
yeah, for a sleep that won’t ever come .
Me man
why have i only just read the lyrics to this song 3 years later. imagery is so deep and profound
This is absolutely amazing! I would love to hear her do a album with Ben Howard.
Y es...
Good fella named Neil brought me here.
Thanks man. This helps like you can't imagine...
No song has never made feel like how this song made me felt. Absolutely breathtaking!🖤
Your words, they remind me a lot of Bukowski. Just such a strong image in so few words. It's a talent. I love your music
lol shes 23000x better than that hack
@@yellowf7408 i read that as a G chord lol

Sean Daniels linked me here, and I'm super happy he did. Instantly grabbing and engaging. Excited to hear the rest of the album now! Loving this song!

This has similar vibe to 'fleet foxes - quiet air'

It makes me kind of mad how pretty this song is. Like I feel things when I listen to it.

'Ingydar was the name of my great-aunt Becky’s horse, who passed away when I was a kid. But the song itself, I have to say, it isn’t really about that horse.

What has happened to popular music? In the sixties we had no end of really great songs. This is just a bunch of pathetic crap.
Let's hear yours?
