Nico - Somewhere There's A Feather download song

Nico was, according to her doctor "tonally deaf". and yet.....here we are bewitched. That's the real X factor

One of the most beautiful songs ever.

The juxtaposition of a very young Jackson Browne's innocent lyric and beautiful melody, laden with strings, contrasted by Nico's fragile, chilly vocal, trying but failing to be soft and sweet, is where the beauty of this song (and most of the Chelsea Girl LP) lies, especially as Nico in retrospect turned out to be a relatively tragic figure. It's not for all tastes and if it doesn't grab you, fine, but I think for Nico to hit you emotionally you have to have taken a long and varied musical journey, down at least a few dark paths. This song in particular is like an emergence back into the light; like the saddest Sunday morning hangover; like the ugly yearning to be beautiful.

I love Nico's unique heavy voice. Thanks for posting :-)

Beautiful and calming. An overlooked song on this album

I miss our standards in beauty and musical talent.

None of the really great singers could sing very well, or at least so it seems to me.

beautiful... i loved nico and saw her at the whisky in LA in 79... she was truly one of a kind and although this is her most conventional record it is still exquisite... listen to the lyrics of this song by jackson browne and then look up the video called scottish widows by remember remember and you will understand what jackson was saying...

Perfect personification of the beautiful journey of life. Thank you Jackson & Nico for the soundtrack

Love and learn Take your turn Somewhere there's a feather Falling slowly from the sky You need not know the reason why. Stand apart Hear your heart Someday there will be Another lover till the end You need not hold your breath till then. Don't ask me to explain to you There's nothing to remain but what we see. Fall and climb Take your time Somehow you must live up To the precedents you've set You need not hope for answers yet. Don't ask me how I know it now The future does not show itself to me. So love and learn Take your turn Somewhere there's a feather Falling slowly from the sky You need not know the reason why.

I am absolutely falling in love with Nico's voice.

I really like this as most songs on this album. There´s a certain feeling about it and a sense of time, folky/somehow arty but still authentic.

One of the most beautiful songs ever.

The fact that a person with the username “Little Tramp” uploaded this heavily offends me.

I love this album from start to finish. Such a remarkable collaboration of her vocals, brilliant songwriters and excellent production. 

Odd that some who are classically trained and non-tonally-deaf cannot evoke the feelings that she does with this song. Whether it was written for her or written to her or just happened to fall upon her, it is wedded to her. Can appreciate that it's not for everyone, a matter of differing sensitivities.
