  • Beautiful and sad

  • oh god, this is so beautiful, very touching, this is what i call art

  • Es realemnte un deleite escuchar y ver los videos de la Candotea, de ella siempre tengo la fijación de saberle.

  • @kembooo000 fail

  • @kembooo000 This is sadly beautiful... Very few people can really appreciate what Anna does. If you don't like this, what are you doing here? Go and listen to Lady Gaga, then.

  • creepy yet beautiful

  • beautiful...

    

  • oh my god... this music is so beautiful... is he/she really crying?

  • to all of u occultists, might wanna not work with saturn unless u know what you are doing lmfao, the key is to be homies with the gods without actually worshipping them, u get the abilities without having to be slaves to them.

  • @1787dude Most of the world is worshiping false gods & idols as is!!! The very ideas of most know religions have more to do with brainwashing people,then anything that is truly proven fact!!!

  • @NuclearLullaby yea, u noticed i didnt mention anything about any organized religion but its not all false.the gods are there, ive worked with saturn before, and chronos too. and hindu and voodoo gods. and crhistian ones too lolz. .alot of other ones too, too many to mention lol and i have seen alot of things, not just my imagination.just find the shit out for your self, proven facts!? lol, i got plenty of those hahaha

  • This is probably the darkest song I've heard and I love it

  • It has always shocked me how no one seems to know who the band members are or even if there is a band! The Man who's behind pretty much all the photos of Sopor Aeternus is some what of a friend of mine & I doubt he can really even explain Sopor Aeternus! I loved the music & imagery the first time I saw & heard anything! Very few groups have been able to hook me in like that!

  • friend, realy. highly doubtful. but fair enough. great song as always.

  • @NuclearLullaby that is because if i understand correctly it is just aeternus and her wife living in an old church in Germany, she does the music herself and all of the provides go to the rain forest

  • @thull21 Uhhh...What??? Well...Even if that's not 100% true it STILL sounds pretty good!!!

  • @NuclearLullaby actually just to make sure i was getting it right i checked the website i went a few years without internet so i have a lot of catching up to do. and growing up i listened to anna all the time but it turns out what i was told about sopor and anna was wrong. so yeah never mind sorry i spoke out of turn but i can get you the website address so you can learn more just let me know.

  • Beautiful, I'm so entranced by her music and imagery.

  • one of ma fave song..and i just love anna and (his)her nails<3..lol..even ma nails are big like anna's in this video,not this big but yea..almost like this..:D:D:D its fucking hard to maintain such a big nails...

  • its the most beautiful thing ive ever seen it completely draws you in

  • i agree with you !!

  • U_U k lindo!!

  • que quiere decir bringer? no recuerdo esa palabra

  • Bringer, viene a estar relacionado con el verbo "to bring" (traer), pero sustantivado... quiere decir "aquel que trae" por tanto bringer of sadness significa "aquel que trae tristeza"

  • Joachim Luetke Is the gifted artist that gives Sopor Aeternus the image that everyone sees. The artwork is semi influenced by another dark visionary artist known as Joel Peter Witkin, while Witkin has nothing to do with the music of Sopor Aeternus, I would not be to quick to rule out Luetke! Luetke brought Holger in to Sopor Aeternus in the 80's Holger now works at times with L'Âme Immortelle as a backing artist & also has a very impressive solo project ! Though many have never seen his face

  • Das ist wirklich eine wunderbare Arbeit. Ich bin dankbar, dass wir Menschen die Möglichkeit haben, uns künstlerisch auszudrücken. Ich kenne wenige Künstler, die so einen Eindruck machen und deren Werk meine Seele so berührt.

  • É simplesmente(ou não) sobrenatural, fantástico!!!!

  • excelente!!! tranquila pero te llega a los sentidos!! y con ese video se lleva las palmas!!! aunke triste la cancion es bastante buena... a mi me gusto!! :D

  • Anna make all the things by him/herself: composes, sings, and makes the necessary adjustments...just don't know who takes the pictures...I would like to know...

  • it grieves my heart!

  • gracias por el video esta chingon anu que no lo crean hasta llore el arte como la vida es tan profunda

  • Lo eterno, la vida y la muerte, dos cosas que coexisten aun siendo enemigas... Algunos solo deseamos que la muerte sea nuestra amiga, y la vida, enemiga.

  • my life

  • Such emotion.... wow. It makes me want to cry for her.

  • I heard that Sopor Aeternus is a project that consists on the song writer, music writer, "imagemakers" etc. And our godess is just a top of the iceberg, not a creator at all. Have anyone heard anything about it?

  • Actually, it's the other way around. She dos all the concept and music. Others help her get it into the world.

  • Indeed.

  • I'm happy that you got chance to participate.

  • esto es hermoso, expresa lo que toda mi vida he esperado, llevame a la oscuridad al sueño eterno. woao

  • wow!

  • ooooh, this gives me shivers

    But its great!

  • She's an artist and true art is born from emotion, expressing ones emotions is healthy no matter what form the art takes, I'm not saying she has been through everything she sings about but thats part of expression you fuse it with imagination and you can come up with beautiful art like she has. if you dont agree with her emotional expressions i suggest you go and watch more johnas brothers videos or other such drivel.

  • I love sopor, AVC is a beautiful artist and she really knows what its like to feel dead inside

  • strange... to say the least... not good, not bad. just strange.

  • sopor aeternus is the best

    anna-varney is my girlfriend

    :)

  • You wish... I'm sure many of us do.

  • She's a friend to all of us. She tells us about herself, piece by piece.. and if you listen to her.. you will get to know her and then you will know that she is our friend, our beloved goddes.. She helped me with her music as she most likely did with others, and so we can call her our girlfriend.

  • You idiotic fanatic, you´re deluded... Can you tell it´s just good music and a good concept. Sure, being cryptic is part of the style but to raise her to be an "icon" tells just how easily affected you really are... Get a clue!!

  • I think there is more to it than that. Some may never know. Ask the TG people.

  • What does TG mean?

  • @benocrofist she likes golden showers

  • @1787dude I think the correct saying would be something like; ''She want(ed) to give a specific person a so called 'golden shower', or perhaps all the men who are like shit in general (but not those who are like chocolate!)'' .. Something like that would propably be more appropriate, but heck what do I know, I can't read her mind! Who knows, maybe -you- are right! ^^

  • @benocrofist what ever man lol i dont wanna hear about golden showers at all in any way or reference ever

  • I've never seen such a deeply genius! Long live AVC

  • One of my favs. I love how orginal and creative she. Her hands and nails are gorgeous. Even though this is sad, it still brings beauty

  • You keep claiming these things but always hesitate to explain. Why is that?

  • Realmente hermoso !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • =) siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iii buenisimo

  • If shes sad, she's sad.. do we even have to take it deeper than that?

  • Who cares really...can't we all just agree on the fact that this person has made very beautiful pieces of music...

    If we are to start judging artist on whether they have or have not experienced whatever it is they have or haven't experienced, we'll need several lives to end the usless discussions...

    Sod it...enjoy the music...

  • As someone who has experienced his fair share of clinical depresion and other pains in life I find this video to be a joke. It even offended me at first, now I find it to be just plain ridiculous. That goes for a fair portion of the people I see posting here. There is something pathological going on as some of you seem to be IN LOVE with the idea of misery and sadness. If you posers TRULY know what it is all about, you wouldn't be so pathetically enamoured with it all. Get real.

  • What about masochists? How do you explain this?

  • Dark Dada, Love it...

  • Once again I behold the beautiful darkness... Indeed, I am chasing this "Cantodea"... Saturn: Intensifier of the already eternal sadness, opression, pain, isolation, and the inert Hell. The beauty of pain in its purest form... Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble of Shadows.

  • Genial...Du düsterer Freund!

  • this is so beautiful!

  • He/she used drugs to create this music.

  • so did the beatles :P

  • Such an ignorant statement... I pity you.

  • its not ignorent, he is emo, and a tranny, therefore making him a emo tranny, how is that ignorant? lol :P (hope im replying to the right post, youtube hates me today T.T)

  • well u are somewhat right....=)

  • ... Well, for that statement to be correct, you would first have to analyze the two factors of your assumption: 1. When you use the phrase "tranny", I assume you are reffering to a transsexual person. In that case you are correct; Anna-Varney is open about her transsexuality and gender dysphoria. 2. "Emo", as far as I've known based on my study of numerous and varying types of music and their histories therein, refers to a derivitive of the Washington D.C. hardcore punk-rock scene... Not related

  • emo also reffers to somone who is overly emotional and "woe is me" kinda thing.

  • If you want to use musical terminology to label and stereotype people whom you have no idea about, then go right ahead. If anyone deserves to act, as you call it so affectionatelly "emo", it is her. And no, she isn't simply bitching about her life to get attention. This music is Anna-Varney's way of coping with the pain that she struggles with daily. The fact that you downplay it as if it's some sort of game disgusts me... absolutely insensitive. The word, "emo" still makes no sense here.

  • entonces simplemente es anna varney cantadora.

  • Es "ella" ser androgeno y entre todo lo que a compuesto hay algo de cierto

  • The taste of hell. Absolut loneliness, incapacity to see God, painful presence of others are some main charecteristics of that state of a soul after death, we usually call hell. Sad but true is that this state can be experienced even duaring life time, so called living hell. Oh, poor souls of despeare and bitternes, open your internal eyes to see that Someone is always there. Powerful, kind, clear, crying for your love, waiting for you to feel His overwelming care for every one of us.

  • Indeed. Christ is calling those who were once called rejected, the poor, weak and oppressed. He really does want you with a passion we can't even begin to comprehend.

  • What do you feel about Sopor Aeternus lyrics and music?

  • I'm actually not a big fan. I like some of the music for the musics sake, don't really like some of her lyrics.

  • There is a lust of bitterness, a hunger of sadness. This kind of feelings I should bring in front of God for my kind of life that ignores Him Who gave me everything I have had in my life . And now stop crying for the Sun, because the Sun has risen. I killed Him inside my deepest spot of my soul, but He is rising Himself from the grave I build inside and is rising me along with Him. Oh, my God , our God, The God of all mankind, how Great is Your Love, The Joy of mankind!!!

  • OYE DanualiaWolff NO ES ELLA ES UN "EL" ANNA VARNEY ES UNA COSA QUE NO SE HA DEFINIDO AUN SEXUALMENTE NO SABE AUN SI SER MUJER, HOMBRE O BISEXUAL. AUNQUE ME INCLINO MAS A QUE ES GAY.

  • tienes, razon, es un el, pero la verdad ella misma a dicho ke es "neutral" y prefiere ke la llamen mujer, asi ke por eso todos le decimos "ella, mujer, hermosa etc..."

  • Sorry, I can't understand spicks.

  • Sopor et Anna sont ce qu'il manquai a ma vie..

    c'est beau,triste mais delicieusement troublant.

    Quand aux gens qui LA critique, qu'il passent leurs chemins, c'est a cause de personnes comme eux, que des personnages comme ELLE existe.

  • she s so perfectly ... beauty

  • that's a kind of music that we don't listen very often, why do put it in a specific music style? just because 2 or 3 other underground bands make a similar sound??

  • Because most of her fans agree that she is Darkwave, or originally started out that way,a nd had with that neoclasical elements...

  • Fuck metal. This is real gothic doom-neofolkclassical-Darkwave­

  • wow! so many names!

  • Rofl

  • this is doom..

  • magnifique chanson d'anna-varney!!!

  • Speaking of Sopor [was underground before the DEAD LOVERS-Discs] and HIM [mainstream-crap] in one sentence isnt very smart. ah, and by the way: both named "bands" have nothing to do with satanism or something like that.

  • ANitaaa eres lo maximoo... Adoro tu belleza MUsical...

  • metal has nth to do with Gothic... someone may listen to Gothic to express his sadness or his love and to metal when he is angry...and every fukkin one who criticizes Sopor or Him... will fukkin die by Lucifer's hand...Sopor represent sorrow, sadness and through that beauty, and Him (gothic rock) represent or used to represent love and death...why must any faggot who can't find real beauty in this , come and comment... just don't bother to see it if u don't like it....

  • Actuallt, Gothboy9, while I can see clearly that you oppnion on the relationship of Goth and Metal is correct in that they do not have a connection, HIM is actually an Alternative Metal band, not a Gothic Rock one. Gothic Rock is like Bauhaus, Sex Gang Children, Specimen, And Christian Death (though they are really more like Deathrock).

  • Goths do not listen to Ms. Anna Varney for her sadness as that is not what this culture is about,we enjoy it for her blatant usage of eccentric theatrics and expressionism serving a deeper purpose.

  • Yea, this is Darkwave which is far deeper than Goth. Goths are more about image than depth. Goth and Darkwave can be interchangeable to a degree but generally Darkwave is the real thing and Goths are often just posers.

  • This is the first song I listened from Sopor Aeternus, and my heart was captured immediately. So much beauty, so much comfort, so much sadness...I had been searching to this music for all my life. I listen to it and I feel free to feel, to express myself, to be. My existence is now complete since I found her music. Thanks, Anna Varney. I will always adore you from now to eternity.

  • Esta canción es la primera que escuché de Sopor Aeternus e inmediatamente me capturó el corazón. Tanta belleza, tanto consuelo, tanta tristeza...es la música que habia estado buscando toda mi vida. La escucho y me siento libre para sentir, para expresarme, para ser. Mi existencia está completa desde que encontré su música. Gracias Anna Varney. Te adoraré siempre y por toda la eternidad.

  • Why don't you people type in proper English?

  • I Love Sopor aeternus, and metal sucks evetime.

  • Infinitely sleepy. Zzzzz...

  • I fell in love with that song when i heard it the first time. The melody returns a lot of memories, feelings, dreams... Anna wrote this song to describe her own state and the listener gets this message only with his soul and heart. And that has nothing to do with suicide or selfdestruction like many stupid ppl think... And sometimes you need this kind of music to feed your soul. Thanks a lot to Sopor Aeternus for this wonderful music!

  • ...

  • *-*

  • Infinitely beautiful

  • simplemente bello

  • esto es realmente bello

  • Sidsanitary towel you are of course free to post your comments, but they are at best of lot of Idiotic diatribe. If you do not like this beautiful music, just click onto something else.

    Better still get your Axe (cardboard of course) out, stand In front of a mirror and pretend you are Ozzie Osborne.

  • music itself is ok, quite ok. but the way he looks and sings is a disaster. i'm deep into music for almost 15 years..and this is hilarious.

    and i dont need to pretend and to live in some world of immagination. as someone said, i'm living my dream. not dreaming my life. like u, sopor fans.

  • Jajajaja!, cmon man, accept that you are a faggot, you listen to HIM and you came here to criticize this guy, jajaja!, how can you do that, jajaja!, him are for gay people, and they d not play metal music, jajaja, asshole!

  • him..haha. u are prolly some dumb teenager..so face it. get a life first. ur mom buys u ipod, cooks u dinner, and u are whining about ur life, u being depressed and other bullshit. stupid kid. "madatgod", what do u actually know about God. prolly nothing..but it doesnt matter, u need to whine about something. u should be mad at yourself..being born that dumb.

    and one more thing, true metal people are not faggs or gays. people like u are like that.

  • madatgod3102, the first thing is, i´m a girl, so don´t call me faggot. The second thing is, that u have to shut the fuck up about things u don´t understand!

  • What?!, I wasnt talking to you little girl, And Him is a gay band, for pansy faggot shit. They dont play metal, but their fans believe that they do. Theyre just a bunch of idiot kids that play easy and boring song in their guitars.

  • Jajaja!, please man, i dont listen gothic music, actually I hate it, i listen to bands like cannibal corpse, burzum and mayhem, jajaja, him is for faggots that believe that theyre satanic, I dont think this gothic guys be depressive persons, just the stupid people(like you) do everything what his music says.

  • Though HIM sucks and is not Gothic look at what you are speaking of,you deem HIM(sucks,not Goth) satanic and yet you openly defend BUrzum and Emporer?

  • I know this I w3as insulting the dickhead who said they were and calling him a hypocrite for deeming them as satanic.

  • Well, as much of as prick as you are, I have to agree. HIM fails pretty badly.

  • Anna-Varney is such a beautiful being. Our lady of Broken Hearts- such a goddess..

  • This is ANNA-VARNEY.

    It is made of TRANSSEXUAL and DEPRESSION.

  • U ppl don´t need to know is it a girl or a guy! Shut the fuck up and listen to the music or don´t. U see a music video there, not a porn film, so it doesn´t matter which gender Anna-Varney is! I´m sorry, but i´m tired to read this inappropriate shit everytime...

  • this is girl?What is this?

  • This is a goddess of beauty

  • quiza, el ser humano tenga nesesidad de sentirse triste aveces y esta cancion ayuda mucho para hacerlo, hermosa cancion , pocas que despiertan en mi un sentimiento

  • my mother loves this song!But she hates Anna Varney.

    Oh,by the way,my name is Anna;))

  • espectacular

  • light and dark are not of color, but shade.

    People should not hoard the beautiful things in life, do not chastize those who are willing to share.

  • This is beautyful. It's philosophyc and emotional, very expressive!

  • come on people dont make SOPOR AETERNUS too famous because than ppl will start to talk bullshit about him,so plz just listen to his music and keep it to ur self,let other people now him by their own way

  • How did I go so long without experiencing such exquisite art? I put Sopor Aeternus in my poetry and art playlist; that's where it belongs!

  • True darkness doesnt hide in the dark, believe me, true darkness is light but in a different color most people cant really see.

  • I always listen to this song in my worst days...Just when i want to disappear from this world.

  • How dare you pass judgment on other people and their lives? Who the fuck are you to decide what sadness is?

  • *WAH!* Can Anna afford food? Is Anna dying from a terrible disease like cancer or AIDS? Is Anna a homeless child? You guys are rediculous... Anna obviously has enough means to make this crappy video, he/she must not be having too hard a life. W/E

  • Well, yes, she obviously CAN afford food, otherwise she wouldn't have the strength to do what shes does. However, we know what her interviews and her music that she has suffered emotionally due to many things--the tragic loss of her husband, isolation, self-hatred, depression. You don't have to be homeless or dying to be unhappy. There are many other things, psychological things, that can make life pretty crappy.

  • You are right, there is more than physical ailments and crappy situations that can make one feel bad. But what does Anna have to complain about? None of you even know if Anna even experienced what she claims she did. It all is alledged and speculated from interviews. Anna is making money, being worshipped by fans though she may not deserve it, and living a relatively comfortable life compared to millions of people all over the world . Psychological pain can ALWAYS be overcome, mind over matter.

  • It is true we don't have any definite knowledge, but given that we can't say anything is false.

    Being a cross-dresser, for lack of a better word, and a homosexual I can very easily believe that she was abused by her mother. Not many parents are thrilled when their little boy wants to wear his mothers clothes. And being homosexual itself isn't easy.

    Psychological pain can be overcome, but so can financial situations, etc. All things can be overcome.

  • It all comes down to trust, and I'm sorry if you can't/won't trust what she puts into her art. That fines for you; but just because you consider her suffering miniature compared to others does not mean she does not deserve the attention she gets because of her art.

    Also, she is admired for her art, not her suffering.

  • Her art is rediculous and offensive. So what if she is transgender? I am friends with many transgender people, most with less than nice childhoods, and they are living happy and fulfilled lives. For my job, I travel all over the world, seeing third world children in REAL pain and to get back to my original comment (which you retards neg'ed, simply because it was different than yours) she chooses to suffer (if she suffers) and therefore this is not art, it is an offensive ploy for attention.

  • WHy do you find it offensive? Because she is exercising her creativity, her freedom of speech? Is it so horrible that she express current or past feelings? All pain is real, whether you like it or not.

  • Again, I know it is hard for you to understand these concepts, but try real hard this time. I do not have a problem with the fact this person exercizes their right to speech, I am offended with what she is saying. Again, I don't believe that she actually experienced all the things she alledges. Lol, why do you take offense to me exercising my freedom of speech? I have a right to say that this person is an attention-seeking, drama-loving poser who loves to dwell on misery.

  • Why are you offended with what she says in her songs? Are you offended when Pete Burns says "you spin me round?"

    What I don't understand is why you find her topics offensive. It's very normal for an artist to contemplate the past.

  • You can exercise any amount of bullshit that spews from your mouth that you want. The fact remains that what happened to her is real, and she is a real person, not just some figurehead or mask.

  • You're right, sadness does come from real life... a life in which Anna suffered through and now expresses through this video.

  • Life is not pain. If you think it is, you are the one creating your own misery. You are pitiful.

  • Life can be both joyous or painfu, depending on the person experiencing it. Please don't take what I say out of context.

  • Life will be joyous or painful, depending on what the person wants their life to be like. Everyone has bad things happen in their life, yet some people go on to live fulfilled lives and others do not. What is the difference? Those who are fulfilled chose to overcome the pain. People CHOOSE to be miserable or happy. People who say that depression cannot be overcome trivialize the struggle and triumphs of those who do strive for better.

  • Did the little girl who got raped by her father CHOOSE to be sad about it?

  • When the little girl grows up (as this artist OBVIOUSLY has) they can CHOOSE to let the person who hurt them continue to have power over their life by making them miserable, or they can CHOOSE to let it go, forgive, deal with it (however you want to think about it) and live a fulfilled life despite them.

  • No one can say for certain how well she has recovered, so you are certeinly in no place to judge.

  • I judge on the fact that this is a grown person who has CHOSE not to recover. If this person wanted to get past those feelings (which I seriously doubt this person has, I believe this is all a ploy for attention) they could be over them by now. I find that offensive, she needs to shut up and talk about something important. Haven't I covered this already? You sure don't catch on very well.

  • Again, I'm astonished by the obvious fact that you have NO evidence to back your claim! You don't know her!

  • She talks about many things other than her own sadness, although this is one of her main concerns. If you listened to more than simply this song, you would see a host of different topics that exists within SOPOR's work.

  • you find her offesnive? she needs to shut up and talk about something important? Is depression not something important? This is the way she copes with her pain, how dare you suggest you know enough about her to judge her and make assumptions on her character? if she offends you so much, then why not stop listening to her music?

  • You obviously see yourself as some sort of superior figure in that you can perceive the depths of every persons heart, even those you have no understanding of, and thus judge why they are the way they are and what they need to do to change.

  • Awesome music, absolutely brilliant!

  • so sick... and BEAUTIFUL!!!!:)

    greets from Brazil

  • This is the saddest melody i´ve ever heard. It makes my soul cry.

  • In Spanish:

    Oh Saturno, ven... devorame, resguardado en tu oscuridad anhelo dormir. Hare de mi corazon una espada de acero, No dudare, nunca

    sentire. Todo petrificado no he de temer... (...no obstante petrificado estoy respirando miedo). Oh Saturno, ven... devorame,

    resguardado en tu oscuridad todo ha de sellarse.

  • I have all of Sopors videos. Maybe i can help u to get some :)

  • Where oh where can I get these Anna Varney videos?! Sopor Aeternus is the only true gothic group out there. Music of pure beauty, sadness, self loathing, and hatred all wrapped up for us to love. I listen to rap, industrial, pop, rock, metal, etc. but Sopor will always hold a special place in my heart. Don't hate people for loving it, just love the music.

  • Sounds to me like the sound of a haunted eternaly restless soul.Amazing wonderful stuff music and video,it puts suffering for your art into a new perspective.

    Regards
