Agnes Obel, the Danish-born, Berlin-based singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer, returns with her highly anticipated new album, 'The Meaning of Flowers'. Following the release of Myopia in 2020, this new album was written, recorded, arranged and produced entirely in Obel’s Berlin studio. Across 12 atmospheric, genre-defying tracks, The Meaning of Flowers captures a period of profound personal and creative transformation. Inspired by the birth of her first child, Obel explores themes of natality, interconnectedness and metamorphosis, reflecting on how new life reshapes the body, the mind and one’s relationship to the wider world. Her new music draws on a broad range of sources, from the poetry of Enheduanna (the world’s first named author) and the ideas of philosophers Hannah Arendt and Emanuele Coccia, to the Danish pop scene of the 80s and 90s. ‘Faustian Deal’ Lyrics: Like a forest of flames Like our fiery someday What would it be to hold the world apart? Would it be another fable with another plot? Did you wanna be with an edge apart, dreaming of the day when your mind goes “wah”? Did you wanna be like a Minerva, dreaming of a knife, waking with a scar? Drum, Drum, what will I do? I’m nowhere where I wanna be when I wanna go with you Down the dawn, the dawn, the dawn I am, I fall I am, I fall with your hands in mine Like what my lips never say A Faustian deal is a housebreak What would it be to reach beyond the mind? With no false or true to define? Poor world, cruel world Did you wanna be with an edge apart, dreaming of the day when your mind goes “wah”? Did you wanna be like Minerva, dreaming of a knife, waking with a scar? Drum, Drum, what will I do, I’m nowhere where I wanna be when I wanna go with you Open the door, the door, the door I am, I fall I am, I fall with your hands in mine Follow Agnes online: Instagram:   / agnesobel   Facebook:   / agnesobelofficial   X:   / agnesobel   Artist Website: https://www.agnesobel.com Video Producer: Alex Brüel Flagstad
