  • Unreal! What a talent.

  • beautiful!!! more should know about this artist!!! amazing songs

  • @lalalalands a fucking retard thts' what you are.

  • @lalalalands You probably listen to Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber and all the Disney shit, right? This is for you .I.

  • @lalalalands FUCK U, U FUCKED UP PIECE OF SHIT!

  • 7 people got their hearts pierced by elephants' teeth

  • this is my favorite song. so honest. my life has been dishonest at least so it feels, connecting with this song is my redemption to myself for not having been true with myself for so long out of fear.

  • SEX!!! NOW I GOT YOUR ATTENTION: Do you know more songs similar to Elephants or Horizon? I really like Yamagata, but, to tell the truth, there are songs very "pop", like those ones belonging to the CD 2 of "Elephants...Teeth"...

  • @brayangabriel87 quiet, little life, sunday afternoon,... to name my favourites

  • @brayangabriel87 and her covers of river and i wish you love

  • Epic Lyrics thats ALL

  • 6 people have bad memories.

  • Such a beautiful song

  • OH MY GOD RACHAEL'S EYES

  • SHE IS SO BEAUTIFUL

  • HOW COME CAN'T I FIND A VIDEO WITH "DON'T"????

  • My love is away just now, after four years. Life is sometimes beyond my all understanding. Rachel is just the one I would always pick up for to take me far out of it. The lyrics..If the elephants have past lives, yet are destined to always remember-how fragile and descriptive. I spent hours and hours replaying her tunes..listening to the words of this song and playing it over I just realize that sometimes it's really hard to shake the skin off. Wonder how's it with elephants?

  • i just love this voice!!!

  • I will, fellow vulcan, now will you please return my favor and delete your commented request for me to kindly off myself?! Much appreciated!! Regards.

  • Good stuff karacter, epic really. May you live long, and prosper! This has been my pleasure.

  • I am not without reason, but consider your approach. I will delete my comment. I appreciate your concern for the well being of others. I am not as shallow as you assume. I hope that in future dialogue with others that you carry a set of kid gloves. Not everyone is made of the stronger stuff that seems to inhabit you and I.

  • Seeing through to my intention seems difficult for you, as your focus remains on the veneer. Delete, and so will I.

  • @karacter28 If you happen to be suicidal yourself, karacter, then go on and do it. Otherwise, save the encouragement that you seem to have for others. All that is left is suicide? Nothing more to do? better to leave? Get over your secret desire to have others' harm themselves. Just off yourself and be done with it. Love, Dave.

  • @YouAteYet I couldn't have possibly been interpreting what I thought the artist was intending through her song and video, could I? That would be too much of a stretch and something I'm sure that has never been done before on youtube. As far as telling me to off myself, I don't think I will, thanks. And looks like four fingers are pointing back at you with the accusation that I have secret desires of others hurting themselves. Interesting. Save the love. Unless you plan to make better use of it.

  • @karacter28 Comprehending satire does require a certain degree of intelligence. Just ask Chaucer, Swift, or Voltaire, when you get to the other side..(the sooner, the better). Be that as it may, seventeen years of healthcare have led me to the conclusion that depressed people don't need your sort of nudging. I suggest that you delete your ill thought out comment.

  • A certain degree of intelligence would be a required on many different levels, Mr."YouAteYet." I must wonder, however, why you are spending your time engaging me in a fruitless back and forth instead of doing something better with your life. Another self-help book perhaps? If anyone is suicidal, they got to that point long before they logged on. Did you not suggest I kill myself, sir? Your hypocrisy is stunning. I would remove my comment only if it would guarantee the removal of you as well.

  • Someone posted this on tumblr and I'm stunned by how quietly beautiful this is. Never heard it before, but wow. Goosebumps all over.

  • this songs feels so painful. but its so beautiful

  • so emotional, so beautiful! 

  • goosebumbs...but in a good way....its one of those rare, beautifly, haunting songs that strikes a chord somewhere deep inside

  • i had the audio like right up and couldn't understand her

  • @balius88 CUZ UR NOT REALLY LISTENING, AND YOU PROBABLY BLEW UR EARS OUT LONG LONG AGO..

  • rachel's white and japanese....i haven't quite made up my mind what to think of her yet...like tori amos she's a good musician, but her lyrics go way over my head...a bit too esoteric for my taste...but her voice keeps me coming back...she definately can sing...

  • "So for those of you falling in love.. keep it kind, Keep it good, Keep it right. Throw yourself in the midst of danger... but keep one eye open at night" -----> OMG! Amazing....

  • Erie and beautiful. And something else without a name too.

  • i feel sad and hollow after watching this and can't stop thinking of my ex. i think i'll go walk into our frozen lake now. bye. thank you rachael.

  • @platinumlance awww don't be sad! Even the worst wounds heal, little by little. Even if no-one is there for you, you can still heal yourself. Trust me, I had to do it alone, and today I feel alive with the animals :) :/ :(

  • it's just stunning really isn't it..

  • first time hearing, wont be the last, thats for sure!

  • @canndc I agree!

  • Such a beautiful beautiful song sad or not, done with true artistry...with beautiful poetic lyrics, a voice and music that paint them well...

  • it still doesn't hit me hw i've met this woman in person. She's absolutely breath-taking, talented and her songs hits me to the core.

  • sigh if only i could sleep with an eye open... :(

  • met this woman, she's not only brilliant but a true talent...this song is tragic and beautiful at the same time.

  • gave me chills

  • at Haseious.... WOW!!!! I love the way you just describe everything. It must be so awesome to put what you see and feel in words. I wish I had that type of talent!

    Great job, I truly enjoyed reading your comment below.

  • Comment removed

  • Oh lord. how boring, depressing, and sad. Friend of mine posted this on his facebook page. Sounds SO much like something he'd like. blahhhhhh!!! No wonder she'd underrated!

  • Haseious - man, you sure know how to talk absolute bollocks!

  • Beautiful songg! i love her shes soo pretty.

  • This song killls me

  • I'm so happy I discovered her. She is so underrated. What amazing artist.

  • ela canta divinamente!

  • I'm sure it has got its sentiments but in the UK we would not sing about the 'Kill' and 'Teeth tearing into the heart' or 'Blood dripping from their mouths in a love song....I guess this is where cultural differences could never resolve...

  • Epic !

  • this is such a powerful and beautiful song <3

  • Wow! I don't know what say that song or what mean but is amazing!

  • grav-i-ty is an amazing tv show with wonderful music

  • Beautiful song, this is in the series Grav-i-ty too. Where I knew this music.

  • So for those of you fallen in love

    keep it kind, keep it good, keep it right

    throw yourself in the midst of danger

    but keep one eye open at night

  • Such a Powerful Song...she is Amazing...

  • If the elephants have past lives yet are destined to always remember

    It's no wonder how they scream

    Like you and I they must have some temper

  • I heard this song on the TV show "Gravity" and fell in love with it.

  • The song is amazing. Simply amazing. And may I say she is quite beautiful as well. Her eyes, Her Voice, Her Self. Tranquility is defined by this song. When you listen to it, you enter the state of mind of Composure. Release yourself.

  • I love this video and this song. Very artistic, vulnerable and beautiful.

  • An amazing song. Truly touching. Never gets old. Video is perfect.

  • to me, this song is like one of the most beautifully written poems.

    A master piece!!!

  • this song reached my ears eleven months too late.

  • This is a true piece of art.

    I have never heard something so beautifully heart wrenching.

  • Romantic, deep, beautiful, brilliant, everlasting, dark, damaged, this woman is a work of art.

  • I've just cried.

  • @Emelieduor It's pretty obvious that it's about a painfully ending relationship. Great imagery.

  • I don't really know what she's singing, yet the audio & video of such simplicity touched my heart, deep enough that I even try to suppress the grey emotion.

  • her videos are weird but worth watching and she is a great singer...

  • I wonder where this was filmed.

  • @mushuplus my guess is multiple locations based on different structures and backgrounds... my thought for main location is Mono Lake/Lee Vining or possible Salt Lake City

  • this is an incredible song. my favorite melody ever written.

  • this song always sounds so heartbreaking. But it's so beautiful that you can't help listening to it over and over again.

  • Haven't heard such a beautiful thing in while...

  • beautiful beautiful song

  • this is my fave song i have it on my ipod love it love it love it!!!!!!

  • hell yeah, the rachael videos are back!

  • this touches my heart so much

  • so beautiful

  • love the contrast and irony in this song.

    take, for instance, the soft piano notes that play subliminally, and as a result, bring forth the lyrical content that underline how aggressive and unforgiving love can be sometimes.

    and of course, rachel's husky vocal chords portray a sense of vulnerability that is so poignant in this song.

    last, but not least, how she roams freely in and out of the weathered house - it's like how these turbulent feelings just invade your heart, leaving you defenseless

  • please for the sake of words, keep writing such wonderfully crafted entries

  • @haseious thank you youtube music expert

  • @haseious I agree... God she's so talented... :)

  • I stumbled upon this talented lady last night and now I can't stop listening to her soulful music. Absoultely stunning. This one is my favorite song.

  • i love how she makes everything so relateable. her albums are always awesome and soothing. just one song is enough to make you love her eternally!

  • stunning song, I really enjoyed listening to it. It's art

  • pretty song

  • i love this song so much. i mean i always feel so understood by the way rachael tells the story. it's so relateable to me.

    i also must have slept the whole night.

    i always start to cry. best song for ages.

  • Beautiful voice, beautiful song, beautiful video!

  • oh wow the best song i have heard in ages

  • this song is so beautiful that thoroughly touched me beyond words. love it!

  • Wow.. This song is absolutely beautiful... I love it.

  • this is full of eerie emotion and content. i particularly enjoy the visual symbolism present in this video. rachael, you look beautiful as usual. nice pale lips and dark eyes, appropriate for the feel of the song. i wonder where this was shot.

  • i already think this is going to end up being one of my favourite songs, its beautiful!

    i went to town today to buy the new album...not in ANY of the shops, whats that about?! so, getting it off the internet tonight :)

  • Gorgeous - I've been listening to the song all day.

  • Hi Lindsay

  • this song is so moving.

  • Rachael is such a distinguished and heartfelt musician. I hope her album is as inspired as her first single!

  • wow. i am speechless. rachael, your are so amazing, and beautiful, and, and, and...

  • beautifully desolate. never thought those words would go together. this song just grabs my soul.

  • just gonna say it's a beautiful song, but not as good as Sunday Afternoon Live at the Croft, which is the best song I've ever heard in my life, and i like rock music.

  • i love your music...wonderful song n.n

  • finally :) and oh so worth the wait.

  • ah the salton sea, a wasteland, kind of like me heart. lovely deserted images to go along with a lovely song about a deserted heart.

  • Ummmmm is it Rachel or Rachael?????

  • Rachael.

  • Rachael.

  • Rachael... really love how she can get the deepest and darkest side of me when listening to her songs... her voice...

    I just can't be patient enough to get the new album. BRAVO!!!!

    beautiful lyrics, wonderful melodies... It even makes it PERFECT to be accompanied with the video...

    MAestra!!! *four thumbs up*

  • you totally hit on the nose. it does the exact same thing for me to!!!

  • I only wish I know speak english better to tell how I feel when I hear this song...Is going down, deep inside of me, touching my gloomy soul, the heart beat quickly and I shiver...Sensazioni e immagini si mescolano in modo incredibile ...And the words are not enough ...may be in my own language like in english.

    All I know is that I'm waiting IMPATIENTLY for this new album in Europe.

  • ok. i downloaded the hq version 'cause it's a really good video, it's really well made. who's the director?
