[sayres99]

Best song Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



[rebelsbeautycorner]

i accidently switched the lyrics and made it into keep the weapens safe keep the wounded down. autch didnt mean to say that.

[UberHyperSugarFiend]

I found Chrolli because of this vid!!!

[MrOmaticaya]

Crolli Vid + Shazam = Antebellum by Vienna Teng

Just love it <3

[Lordling91]

beautiful song..

[Alees0419]

I got a major chill from the first word she sang

[kennedky]

Everyone keeps talking about Christian and Olli, how are they?

[aline59161]

@kennedky they're back together ! xD

[SkellyLeigh]

I discovered Christian and Olli because of this song. O.O

[SkellyLeigh]

Listen to this daily, and I repeat it over and over again O.O

[LuckyAna1987]

This song touches my heart ♥

[jelliclestar]

This song makes me feel so much better when I'm upset or stressed. No matter what's wrong, I'll always be able to listen to Vienna's beautiful voice and be calm and reassured. Right now I'm able to study without being irritated or bored because of her perfection. <3

[charitybetta]

Who's the dude who sings in this?

[CaCha5]

@charitybetta alex wong

[CometOfShadow]

@charitybetta He's named Alex Wong. He does harmonies and percussion for a lot of Vienna's songs (he's the one playing the awesome drumrolls).

[lottederfloh]

I actually prefer the part, where the guy starts singing. It reminds me of christmas. Love it!

[lmpg8anti]

love it!!!



[todcs]

Beautiful song and beautiful voice. I wouldn't have known this song if I had not watch Christian and Olli. Thank you.

[HLFSGLSPN]

@todcs i'm like you : I discovered this song thanks to Christian and Olli and their beautiful wedding. There are many beautiful songs that are associated with their storyline and this is definitely one of them.

[todcs]

@HLFSGLSPN I totally agree with you. I'm lucky to find this song on Youtube. LOL.

[thedeeliciousplum]

I love reading the comments for Vienna's music. Another reason why I love her voice and music. Thanks for sharing this.

[Blackmagic3553]

What a lovely song.....wouldn't have notice it if it wasn't for my beautiful couple.......Christian and Olli. Perfect.

[ragbforever]

god!! makes me cry!!! luv it!!!!! so deep the lyrics!

[Kuroitori14]

O.O wow....first time i heard this song and third song by Vienna... blows me away how simply wonderful the music is

[blueashke]

Vienna, always a treasure to listen to this song over and over.

[everythingevil76]

Wow, this just blew me away. So beautiful

[teliomi6]

I think that if Enya and Vienna Teng were to create a song it would cause heaven to become earth.

[DreamxStreetx16x]

Chrolli. <3

[lowtideflut]

This song is perfect.

[gatarharo]

Aww Christian And Olli...Love those two

[TheRainbowMinion]

Whoa! This music really brings me to life!

I got linked here from another video where I enjoyed it as well but it is much more clear here. Why can't I ever find music like this song?

I'm so hyped right now ♥

[Neko95chibi]

My senpai let me listen to her from her phone at Drama club once and after all i could do was feel creative but for more personal arts like drawing and writing- my poems just seem to flow like a river trickling of off my pencil i love this song so much and am now sharing her words with my friend my 2nd-ary school decided that yr11s should also participate in "circle time" blegh! >< we shared our favouriteartists with eachother but no one knew who she was! time to change that and spread the word!

[CuddlyButDangerous]

This song. THIS. I am listening to it all day long. I just love her music!!! The lyrics are like poetry, simply beautiful <3

[15iloveyaoi]

christian and olli wedding!

[Lacies47]

@15iloveyaoi That's how I found the song too. It was so joyous and celebratory sounding on the show, so I went looking for it here. But now that I've listened to the words a few times, I see that it's actually very sad and poignant...though still very beautiful.

[KitchenKiller95]

while listening to this and a couple of other songs, i realised i was listening to WAY too much breakup songs!

[bjpsych46]

I'm so glad more people are discovering VT. I've loved her music for several years and still can't understand why she is not better known. Listen to the piano, esp. on her first album. That's all her, too. So magical. Love Harbor, Lullaby for a stormy night, et. al. If you've ever lost a beloved uncle (or other relative maybe) you will weep your way through Say Uncle.

[PhreshxxxBear]

You have to wonder what kind of people dislike this song. Its so poetic and beautiful. Probably some people expecting explicit lyrics or some kind of vulgar rap...

[XsimplycomplicatedXx]

............. for SOME reason, this song makes me think of Hetalia. x]

[milkeuu]

@XsimplycomplicatedXx

^^ xRaerin made a wonderful Hetalia AMV with this song, so yeah, you're not only one o3o

[XsimplycomplicatedXx]

@milkeuu aw, dangit. xD someone beat me to it. x] I'm making and America x England video. Well, either way I'll check it out. :)

[OutAtTheShow]

@XsimplycomplicatedXx Oh, thank goodness it's not just me.

[XsimplycomplicatedXx]

@OutAtTheShow Lol, and now I'm actually making an America x England amv to this song xD

[OutAtTheShow]

@XsimplycomplicatedXx I am intrigued. Could you message me so I know when it's up?

[XsimplycomplicatedXx]

@OutAtTheShow lol it's up as of a few minutes ago. ^_^ The comment thingy wont let me post a link for some weird reason so just go to my channel. :)

[msvalerievalentine33]

@XsimplycomplicatedXx Oh god Hetalia everywhere! This is the first time in months I'm not watching a hetalia video on youtube, and I find it in the comments! XD But I'm gonna go watch your AMV now...

[anarri2011]

this is incredible i dont get how someone could have this kinda of soothing voice it makes me cry and smile and sway keep the weapon keep the wounded safe!

[Kestrelcloud]

Ooh, this song is really beautiful! I could listen to it 10 times in a row and not be tired of it!

Oh, I just remembered! If you like this you might want to check out Boats and Birds by Gregory and the Hawk, it seems like a similar song. :D

[Thebunnz88]

When I found this I was looking for a different song but wow. This is amazingly beautiful.

[allavengedromance]

I usually listen to metal and punk, but I think her song are just simply beautiful.

[anarri2011]

this amazing simply amazing

[wickedchik96]

does anyone know where i can find sheet music for this song?

[temarigirl160]

does anyone know who the male is singing?

[AAparallel]

@temarigirl160 That's the amazing Alex Wong, the producer of the album (Inland Territory), co-writer of this song, and ridiculous multi-instrumentalist.

[pureblackmist6x6]

I love this song....its so meaningful....it feels good to hear a song about the emotions you can't describe

[ApollonApostle]

To anyone confused about the song title, 'Antebellum' means 'before the war' in Latin. Ante- 'before', and bellum- 'war'.

[theauthor94]

@Rilan11

I'm not sure. Belle means pretty in French I'm pretty sure.

Antebellum is the period before a war, maybe thats why the word for beautiful is in it. No on is fighting...

That probably didn't make much sense haha.

[CanBeMystery]

Tears and goosebumps<3

[CanBeMystery]

goosebumps<3



[KoiNohappygolucky]

Music is like a magnificent mansion. Every time you enter through a door... you find another new magnificent door to go through...and you pass through grand rooms. .. seemingly never-ending..Inside your heart you wonder how long this will continue...You don't mind if you never find your way out. and the outside world doesn't seem to matter.

[SoManyDreams658]

@KoiNohappygolucky that's beautiful x

[funhousesr4dogs]

I just had to go dislodge my Poptart from my throat! Wow! I just discovered her by her song "Lullaby for a Stormy Night" a few days ago. I've absolutely just fallen in lover with her music!

[delapanbelas011987]

You'll go home...I'll stay here Seasons keep on marching :'( 

[TwiddleXTormenT]

"She is a dress wearing a face in the doorway."

[L33tprincess]

I love this song. I love how if you look hard enough, you can find beautiful, unique singers like Vienna Teng. I hate how you have to look hard for them.

[chocolatebunny1996]

This might just be one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. <3

[TheMillsy21]

this is perfect postcoital music, and i mean that in the most poetic and sincere way.

[KungfuMistress]

The two people who have disliked this song don't have souls.

[kireinayumu]

This, Gravity, Anna Rose, and Lullaby for a Stormy Night are my favorite songs by her. She has the most soothing voice I've ever heard!

[Litchyyy18]

@kireinayumu

Surely, My Medea has to be within your favourites? It's amazing.

[kireinayumu]

@Litchyyy18 I've only heard that one a few times, so I haven't gotten a chance to listen to the words, but I'll listen to it all the way through fairly soon.

[PaleAsh]

BehindThisMusic thanks for posting all these awesome songs by her!! She's one of my fav. singers ever!

[IiSsGgEeWwDd]

So soothing. So nostalgic.

[Elihulove]

The beauty of Vienna's music always makes me cry. <3

[pokelantis2]

I really want to hear her live, or meet her. I think I would collapse into tears if I ever did though, because I'm crying when I listen to her songs on youtube already.

Agh this song reminds me of Leviathan.

[TheWeirdPlant]

I think I just melted from sheer joy. :)

[BelziBhaal]

Gods, this song is incredible. Vienna has the most beautiful voice.

[21stCentSchizoidFan]

Saw her along with Alex (an astounding percussionist!!!) at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival and I was extremely impressed. Their professor even came out and played a mean cello!!! lol

[falsehope01]

Hadn't heard of this women until a friend linked a song... And wow... I've never felt so inspired. Her voice and lyrics are moving. I couldn't help but pick up a pencil and start drawing, which I haven't bothered with in years. I don't understand why no stores nearby have any of her music in stock.

Beautiful.

[BehindThisMusic]

@falsehope01 I'm so glad it inspires you to pick up creative things... It's such a shame many stores don't sell and probably don't even know good music... Good luck drawing girl...

[peacethrumusiq]

@falsehope01 wow glad to hear that you were inspired to start drawing again! isn't it such a great thing when music can move us so?

[lizzyasdoth]

I'm thinking about drawing a music video to illustrate how I see this video. <3 This and gravity are my favorite songs by her, and I will never get tired of them. She is an amazing artist.

[FairyofCritics]

@lizzyasdoth Oh please do! I'd love to see a drawn perspective on this.8D This could go so many ways.

[KillerWhaleResearch]

I am becoming obessed by this song its so beautiful I heard it from a very special video on youtube and I now have it on my ipod...

[HelenMClyde]

I want to see her live NOW. I hadn´t even known who she was until yesterday, but withing the last 24 hours, I spent most of the time listening to her music, and she simply blows me away.

I need a concert in Cologne, s.a.p., preferably with a full blown orchestra, but I guess this lady alone would allready suffice :)

Man, this woman really, really knows something about music!

[TwiddleXTormenT]

*Excuse the corniness*

This song is so insanely beautiful, that if I download it to my iPod, it'll grow a pair of angel wings.

<3

[BritalishCoRiNnE]

two people are beiber fans

[Qwerty101170]

@BritalishCoRiNnE

That is the first good beiber joke I have heard in a loooong time.

[TheCleverFoxGirl]

i'm pretty sure this is my 11th time listening to it in a row, it's so beautiful *w*

[candylover3200]

Love at first sound. The voices and the song are beautiful. (:

[TheRavensCalling]

Verbotene Liebe brought me here. This song played at Christian and Oliver's wedding....i love it!

[migm1234]

@TheRavensCalling snap, same here

[Bonaxale]

questa canzone è una palla

[vampsRkool]

this song gives my goose bumps, her voice is so beautiful

[idiotjello]

DUDE I JUST DISCOVERED THIS LADY'S MUSIC LIKE LEGIT TWENTY MINUTES AGO AND NOW SHE IS MY FAVORITE PERSON EVER.

omgomgomgogmgomgogmg.

i anticipate much repeat buttons and itunes downloads in the future.

[jellyrcw12]

@idiotjello lol me too, her music is so captivating. 

[sickofwaitingtables]

Tori Amos + Sarah McLachlan + Suzanne Vega = Vienna Teng

[darkcloud2fan]

breathtaking, beautiful. love it!

[billkingdomheart]

This song has so much felling and beauty! I love it! <3

[OmahaWitch]

Stunning!!!!

[wolfsister12]

i cried just looking at the lyrics for this song

this song is so beautiful. x')

[pokelantis2]

Am I a bad person for putting Vienna Teng and Regina Spektor in the same category?

[2GodsGirlz2]

@pokelantis2 I don't think so. I love them both so much! I think they have a bit of music all throughout them...in their souls, in their veins, and in their hearts.

[BrazilAna]

EPIC.

[lualeni69]

more singers like Vienna ! <3

[FillesEtFutilites]

I think i'm responsible for half the views on this video.

[jennyoriley]

@Spankasaurous Why would you want to??

[wertzustellung]

one person missclicked accidentally

[happystar11]

im angry, but in a good way

because i cannot escape my very-human fate..

[anmndr]

The part with the male and the female sends chills down my spine

[JazzRockablity]

this is so beautiful, which is crazy cause its suppose to be about never being friends with someone. its crazy but undeniable art.

[SweetPorridge]

such a good song, so haunting

[jkai0025]

lovely, lovely, lovely...perfect for right now! Gosh I'm going to miss the east cost autumn....

[m3rcy616]

Absolutely angelic voice.

[Rosie1700]

Does anybody know who the male voice is?

[cutiepiegirl2015]

@Rosie1700 Alex Wong

[MelyoraMel]

@Rosie1700 -- Alex Wong ;)

[mywishisfantasy]

Currently my favorite song. Everything that she sings is gorgeous, but I especially love the battle-like drum in the chorus of this song.

[hullo2stranger]

HI. I'm musically-illiterate and can't recognize the string instrument playing in this song... a bit of help, please? :DD Thanks.

[BloatedPenguin]

@hullo2stranger Don't quote me on this, but I think it's a cello.

[hullo2stranger]

@BloatedPenguin Thanks!! :D

[pokelantis2]

I really like Vienna Teng. She reminds me a lot of Regina Spektor, but I can actually sing these songs! Thanks for the upload!

[genstar92]

Gorgeous!!!

[lhfsing]

I can't stop listening to this song! It's has a much fuller sound than her earlier songs. Vienna has truly created a magnificent work of art with Antebellum!

[shokoholic]

I love her music so much! And she'll be in Stuttgart next week! <3

Anyone gonna be there?^^

[AlaenorSkybird]

I LOVE VIENNA TENG.

Every single time I write a big project, she always has some song that fits what I'm writing to a T! This is going to be Michael's theme song now. OMG. Writers block instantly cured!!

[EmeraldS0ul]

this song is so beautiful!

[YumeYasuu]

I also listen her older songs for a while. This one's more different from her last album. I think I just had to get used to it, because now I find it a beautiful song ^.^

[pluviosity]

@Lenariet & Lightpaw

Thanks! Her music is new to me.

This is also one of my favorite number. Kinda become an insider joke for me as a political student.

[MazenderanRose]

Heartbreakingly beautiful. :( I always think that Vienna doesn't sing so much as recite poetry to music...

[pluviosity]

who's the guy singing the last verse? is it Duncan Sheik?

[lightpaw]

I think it might be Alex Young, cuz he collaberated with her for this song, but I dunno..

I haven't heard the whole album yet, but this might be my favorite =3

[Lenariet]

No, it's Alex Wong.

[StarLight16]

She's like a modern day Shakespeare. I looovvee heerrr. :OOO

[RaccoonsLoveAlex]

I know!

[Niserl87]

OMG... That's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard! <3

[elangworthy]

@Niserl87 That's what I think about 90% of Vienna Teng's songs :) They are all so good, I can't even pick favorites!
