“I feel like an emotional jellyfish” it’s highly probable nobody has ever uttered that phrase before her, but it’s the perfect way to describe this experience.

[@Raymund-Swales]

I arrived back here, again, somehow. To have that Angels voice touch my soul, until times decree she be heard again.

[@cordofcare]

So much poetry, so much magic, so much beauty... this version definitely gives me goosebumps, along with the live version of RIP Burn Face. Sierra, Bianca & Tez are true performers.

I feel like these ladies are so completely open emotionally and creatively that they give songs names like Fairy Paradise without the slightest bit of irony. That's pretty fucking cool if you ask me.

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

I cried when I heard this the first time. The world looked strikingly different once I knew it was possible for something to be this beautiful. Suddenly, I was brave enough to live in a place where things could be as ugly as they'd always been. Determined to spend the rest of my life turning over stones until I find more. Fuck a wasted life.
