I will be gone tonight
Everything's done for a while

And I will be silence with yours
In your fire, in the night
We will be dancing like ghosts

And the day has arrived on time, ooh
Silently hides what we find

And you will be silence with mine
In your fire, in the night
We will be dancing like ghosts apart
Will you be dancing tonight?

Softly and close
Dancing, dancing those two little ghosts
Time is a space and space is a time
Are we saying goodbye?

Every single night I'll be simply dancing with ghosts
Every single night I'll be simply dancing with ghosts
Every single night I'll be simply dancing with ghosts
Dancing with ghosts, ghosts

Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)
Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)
Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)
Dancing with ghosts, ooh (dancing with ghosts)

Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)
Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)
Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)
Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)

Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)
Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)
Dancing with ghosts (dancing with ghosts)
Dancing with ghosts, dancing with ghosts

Excellent! I think it's great that she's working with Patrick Watson, whose Close to Paradise is full of trippy, deep, imaginative work such as this... Bravo!
After one gets over the thought, "Young Lady", you are "Weird", it actually becomes quite soothing.

I"m hearing a completely different song right now. I forget who performs it, but it's a Bonobo sounding sort of thing.


Yep, me too. The song that played was not the Hania Rani. I also heard the instrumental—possibly Bonobo as you mention. 
Weird. I know I’ve heard this on RP for years… I wonder why it’s showing up as “new”. 
UPDATE: the song that played is a different song (not the one shown in the iOS Main Mix.

Def check out Hania’s more orchestral stuff, very beautiful! Thanks for playing her!
I stumbled across Hania by accident on YouTube a couple of years ago. I really loved Buka, Hawaii Oslo, Leaving. I bought her "Home" and "Esja" CDs, just loved listening with headphones. My wife and I saw her live in DC last month. It was a sold out show, but a very small venue, Union Stage. I was surprised to hear her on RP, it is nice to see her music getting recognition.
New to me; and a thoughtful, haunting melody - an easy "7" to start.
Hania Rani is a fantastic composer and performer. Her works are a real pleasure to listen to.

The latest beauty from her, I ran into, was "Glass". Probably a reference to Philip Glass, but the video spot was beautiful. Worth checking out.
This is the second time in a few months that I've seen Olafur Arnalds' name in a Wiki page about someone else.

Haunting melody. I'm enjoying the post-pandemic / pre-Apocalypse music being played on RP- really captures the zeitgeist.

Like that RP is always adding new songs. I like this one, don't love but a good like. Don't usually get to be one of the first ones to comment. Thanks



I see you were the first one to comment! (And I'm the second!) And there was only a single rating (an 8) when this started playing!
