  • I don't care if you all hate it, and I don't even care that Nico herself hated it; I feckin' love the flute on this album! =D The flute, the strings and her vocals on this song are all fantastic.

  • @CaptainGraphite wow, soo many flute lover comments in the past few days - wonder why the sudden spike in pro-flute comments?? lol.

  • the flute of this entire album confuses my brain.

  • the flute is too loud in the mix.

  • you must really love nico, aren't you?

  • This song reminds me of myself a few years ago, watching the snow fall from my lower east side apartment's window. I had just bought "Chelsea girls" and "Winter Song" transported me to a world long gone...

  • For her music is perfect for winter.

  • 彼女は春になっても目を覚まさない。生きたまま埋葬されて、知ら­ない人たちの手で掘り起こされ運ばれる。どこから来たのか誰も知­らないから、どこに行くのかも誰も知らない。

  • ニコの沈鬱な声のトーンは、ジョン・ケイルのアカデミックな­音の重圧感ととても相性がいい。北方の蛮族がラップランドの­妖精と奏でる不協和音。

  • @Annbeauj The true songs " comming from outer spheres " often remind us of ourselves.But , but Nico is from a higher perfet and sader planet , where I spent somes twenty years too , and where life sounds pretty like Nico's songs . Marvelous but , very deeply, sadly human. Who could tell me if Nico spent her youth in Germany ?( Btwn 1938 and 1950 )

    We could think some feeling coming from these heavy times have landed in her songs , but it's only my own feeling.

  • Golliwogg APPROVES of this song.

  • A German female vocalist in 1960s New York sounding like an ode singing wandering minstral from Medieval England...love it!

  • Nico was and is an amazing artist. She actually came here and played in new zealand-unreal. Why did she look so full of angst and misery? She was raped at 15, maybe that could be part of it, but nothing seems to shut the critics mouths

  • @desertshore It's all a despicable ploy by the evil fatcats at the flute industry to get you all to buy more flutes.....
