Karliene - The Dawn 

A ray of hope for the wounded souls who've survived a night filled with fear and anxiety. Always love your songs and been a follower since the LotR songs.

This entire EP is absolutely gorgeous and haunting. I adore it so much. I've actually gotten quite strong Hades and Persephone vibes from all of these songs. The Gloom is talking about how Persephone was lost to the Underworld and Hades because her lover at the time failed his promise. Dark Ones is kind of like the Underworld talking to her, trying to claim her and keep her. Disappear is like Hades trying to convince her to stay. Saying she is the light of the Underworld and he doesn't want her to leave. And the Dawn makes me think that it talks of Persephone's visits to Earth with Demeter. But it never lasts, as she must always return to the Gloom, or in this case; the Underworld.

I love Karliene's soft voice. Also, how the heck can anyone dislike her videos?? Seriously, she sings from the bottom of her heart, even in covers of other's songs.

There are three main themes for me in this one. Someone winning a battle with depression and realising it for the first time/imagining what that day will be like, then two less meaningful ones, haha. It makes me think of Narnia and Lotr. The woman is walking in a lonely wood, a little cold, watching the horizon where the morning sun should be coming up. But there is nothing there, besides the usual flat brown sky. She imagines the warmth of the sun, its light and comfort washing over the world and bringing all those lost souls back. But in her heart, the woman knows it is wishful thinking. The world will not be saved for some time yet. However, she would like to be there when it is, even if that is her last day. She wants to know what it's like to have the sun on her skin after years in darkness. _______________________________ You know, these songs have done wonders for my motivation to write. And the world they conjure up in my minds-eye is a very interesting one! The art also helps, it's beautiful :) I will definitely be making an up to date writing playlist now :3

We live in darkness, waiting for the sunrise to break the eternal night. But when it does we are blinded by its majesty and splendor. So to the darkness we return, the idea of the light that we cannot see a torch to light our path.

I stayed up all night wondering where the sun went. Then it _dawned_ on me.😎

You probably won't see this but karliene your songs and serene voice saved me from darkness through you I've seen dawn come . Thank you so much for all that you do ❤️

Love this. Adding it to my dnd character’s playlist. I have been having them always up at dawn to watch the sunrise each morning they can. This ritual is on purpose as their late fiancé always loved watching it rise too. My character made a promise to themselves to see as many sunrises as they can with their fiancé sword by their side as they can. They want to continue to convey their lover’s legacy to the world, which was a very optimistic and idealist view, and the positive influence this had on them. This song feels like those moments I put together for this character. It’s a small thing but it’s something I felt my character would do as a form of their grief. Which is the entire point of this character, their story is supposed to be one about learning to live with the grief and still going on with you life. Not forgetting or neglecting, remembering, but also not letting the past weigh you down. And that’s why the sunrise symbolism is so important for me in doing this. Anyway! Thanks for the song!

You know I can't help thinking that you had these last few songs come out in almost perfect order, intentional or not. The last three tell of haunting darkness and despair and then there's this one, the dawn. For the darkness part of night comes just before dawn.

Hello Karliene! I know I am late, but I wanted to thank you for this song! I always sang this song for my heart horse Kami. He died today (5.3.2024) and I am heartbroken. He was my reason to keep living. This song brought me peace and reminded me of him. All I have of him now is a bridle and saddle and lots of memories. Thank you for writing this song! It means so much to me!❤🧡💜

It's soom to be dawn here, and this coudn't have come in better time... It's beautiful, marvelous... So emotional, I always feel so free as well...

This EP is beyond beautiful, Karliene, you outdid yourself, and that's pretty much impossible, thank you!

You're voice is absolutely breathtaking and it calms me so much every time, and certainly in this situation were in now. Thank you, you inspire me to keep singing.💕🎶

Love the haunting melody!

I have no words... this is perfect. Thanks for this beautiful music

Enchanted as I've never seem for a long time! Thank You magical soul!

I love to come back to this song every once in a while and have heard it for the hundreth or so time today. But only now that I have all your songs on shuffle I realised how amazingly well this song would fit into the Anne Bonny storyline right after "blow high, blow low"... it just... fits in perfectly with all the little things including the sea awaiting her as well as the longing to be free yet being bound to the place she is at.

Thank you for giving me another beautiful song that I'll list to nonstop for the next couple of days!

I feel this song and agree with the feels MUCH, MUCH too much.

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I can't stop crying its so soul soothing.. The gloom is really speaking to my soul. Thank you Karliene

Wunderschön❤

Just came across this EP and I absolutely love it. I love your style in music. One of a kind 🖤

I love this album these song really tell about the inner struggle of mental illness and disorder the song dawn shows that there is hope for a better tomorrow and with love and support we need to help with the silent battle we face every day

What a beautiful song! Thank you for your wonderful music. It's so full of emotions and touches the heart. You are magic.

The first seconds already got me, it's just so breathtaking and lovely ❤️

Such a beautiful song and especially apt when listening in quarantine and waiting to be able to properly go outside again.

This is one of the most beautiful songs I listened to! It almost brought tears to my eyes...

🍃🍃🍃Phenomenal music, voice and atmosphere that floats in the air, like evening fog somewhere in a meadow near the forest...🍃🍃🍃

I love your song its feeling Expresses myself when I'm sad and happy all at once

Stunningly beautiful. Thank you.

Dear Karliene, you outdid yourself with these songs. I got the depression vibes from the lyrics from the get go and unfortunately could not listen to the other songs completely so far because they hit a little too close to home (depression sucks), but these songs are so hauting and it's amazing and wonderful how you created something so beautiful out of your pain. This one especially is such a beam of light, it's hopeful and made my heart a little lighter. Thank you for creating such amazing pieces, but please don't feel pressured to create. You are perfect and wonderful the way you are. Lots of love

So in love with this, so in love. Kind of heals part of my soul... thank you! ✨💜

BRAVA Karliene! This album brought me to such tears, spoke to my soul, and this beautiful conclusion is just...wow. You always speak to my heart with your music but this album broke me and put me back together. It's everything I, and I think many others, are feeling right now, and I truly believe the dawn will come to us all.

Music for the soul... Thank you for taking me into a world full of mysteries, magic and peace with your music. ✨

This past week I'd been struggling to find the right music to write this semester's final essays. Today I found "The Gloom" and now I'm able to concentrate in my duty. So I would like to take a couple of minutes to thank you for your music. You have a new follower. Greetings from Mexico!

Okay, so I listened to the whole thing and came up with a story. *The Gloom* is the beginning, about a woman who lives alone in a haunted forest, cursed by dark magic and feared and forgotten. *The Dark Ones* could be a flashback, about how the dark magic and demons used to call to her, how they promised her power and love. *Disappear* is also a flashback, about her last lover before she was taken fully by the darkness, about how she longed for him and that he was her only hope. *The Dawn* is the ending, about how the darkness finallly releases it's hold on her, and sets her free, and how she tries to get used to the beautiful world again.

This is incredibly beautiful! I love that you sang this through only once, as if you did not care to repeat any part of it. Then finished with a long and beautiful, wordless lament for the dawn with just your wordless voice, your piano and Roxane’s cello. The final solo note, (the highest note on your piano?), was perfect!

I think this EP is my favorite from you so far, keep the good work !

I have only discovered you today, but you deserve so much more views and likes. You're making me cry. I love it.

Splendid 😍😍😍 merci beaucoup pour votre partage 🙏🙏🙏😇🇫🇷🎶🎶🎶

This is the most beautiful song I've heard in a very long time. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️

This whole series of songs: the Gloom reminded me of Ben Solo. Him being tortured when he was younger and dragged into going to the dark side then being redeemed.

This is the perfection

I'd give anything to be my hands on sheet music for this song. So beautiful.

So emotional and beautiful

Beautiful vocals...songs...and music....:)

Beautiful!

Very beautiful music! Brazilian here! 😊🇧🇷

so amazing

I don't know the gloom, but I'm crying like a baby because of this beautifully haunting song.

This is too good to hear

Gracias 🙏 por la musica 🎶

Esos temas que interpretas son muy especiales, nos situan en un plano diferente y nos obligan a soñar mundos diferentes, muchas gracias

Your songs are so beautiful and the artwork..... I don't know how you found this artist but it fits so well with your new songs! Great work!!

A VOICE OF AN ANGEL....

2 amazing songs in one night! I would love to hear your inspiration behind this album. Hope you're staying safe and healthy!

It's beautiful.

This Ep is one of yure best works and that is saying somting

beautiful once again

So many emotions welling up, perhaps it is the glass of wine ... perhaps it is just me ... It calls me, oh, it calls me... the world is waiting there for me... if only, if only, the dawn breaks through the trees, it never breaks for me... and all I have is this dream." When words can touch you so deeply, and make such a profound impact on you .. There are no real words to express, how it touched me. Thank You

Amazing

This is a beautiful song. Good to see The Light. The Dark Night of The Soul is not a nice place to be. The Twin Flame Journey is not for the Faint hearted.

So deep and intense. 🌜🌟🌙

wow

one think i want to say ... you are so gorgeous in voice and soul .. never stop amazing us

Nicely done

Nice song! I think it's my favourite from the ep 🤔

This is me questioning life.

Wow what a soft and emotionally soothing voice that transcends me to a better place!!! Thanks for this extremely amazing song 💐👍💞❗

This song make me feel like mc thought she was able to escape but plot twist it was just a dream

This is really beautiful! You should do some music for Legend Of Zelda games.

I wish you could put subtitles for your other awesome songs too(like Beren and Luthien)

The magic of old is now returned to the universe! Lady Judith

This made me think of Elsa at the end of Frozen 2

Hey Karliene I really liked this song, I think you are a very beautiful woman, your voice gives a soft, epic and sexy touch to the music, I like the way you make the videos and the passion you have when singing the variety too of your content. I hope you continue to make more of your own creations and covers of animated movies like Disney about princesses and villains because you are very good at it! ☻ ♥♥♥

Can you sing the 10,000 enemies? Please you have a wonderful voice!

Request: Jolly Sailor Bold from Pirates of the Caribbean

thank you for inspiring me to make a death scene in my book a lot sadder. that may sound like a bad thing but it isn't.

Can you do a cover of "What are we made of? " by Brian May & Sissel

Would love to hear a song about baseball heroes like shoeless joe and Babe Ruth etc.

غي انتي لي تحسي بيا هيريام صباح الخير واليسمين

İs this freedom?

ميريام انتي حبي وزوجتي شريكت حياتي انشاء الله ييكملها الله رجوعك حطم كل العالم

الباتروا رواح تقابل

ان السبع تاعك شتيني قدامك وحبيتيني من النضرة الاولى هاذوا العباد ماعاشوش الحب تاعنا ميريام وجامي يعيشوه محصن من الله

واراتلهم ليفيديوا تاعي ميريام سارقتهم من التيليفون تاع المرة واراتولوا راهم مشوكيين

اندير المحال على جالكم انتي وزوجتي سنفرح معا ميريام

Amazing
