Sibylle Baier
Sibylle Baier is a German folk singer and actress whose musical abilities achieved belated recognition with the 2006 release of the album Colour Green, compiled from songs she had recorded in the early 1970s.
Having played guitar and piano as a young girl, she was moved to write her first song, "Remember The Day", after taking a road trip with a friend across the Alps to Genoa, via Strasbourg. She appeared in Wim Wenders' 1973 film Alice in the Cities Read Full BioSibylle Baier is a German folk singer and actress whose musical abilities achieved belated recognition with the 2006 release of the album Colour Green, compiled from songs she had recorded in the early 1970s.

She appeared in Wim Wenders' 1973 film Alice in the Cities, and her music also featured in Umarmungen und andere Sachen (1975), a German Jochen Richter film set in Bavaria about three romantically involved bank robbers. Baier opted not to pursue an acting or singing career, and moved to America where she concentrated on raising a family.
The songs that went on to make up her album Colour Green were home reel-to-reel tape recordings Baier had made in Germany between 1970 and 1973. Some thirty years later her son Robby compiled a CD from these recordings to give to family members as presents. He also gave a copy to Dinosaur Jr's J Mascis, who in turn passed it along to the Orange Twin label. Orange Twin released the album in February 2006. She is expected to release a second studio album. She performs the song "Let Us Know" in Wim Wenders' movie Palermo Shooting (2008).

Tonight
Sibylle Baier Lyrics
tonight when I came home from work, hurt
tonight when I came home from work
there he unforeseen sat in the kitchen
buttering himself a bread
and the cat was on his knee
and smiled at me
tonight when I came home from work
tonight when I came home from work
there he unforeseen passed the guitar
and said "I battered my car
right now won't you please give me your chair"
we had a change of the moon
we had a change of the moon
tonight when I came home from work
tonight when I came home from work
tonight when I came home from work
there he unforeseen changed in the lazy chair
and said "what's that sorrow you bear?"
and I could tell him, he understood
he gently took my arm
he listened to my tears till dawn
I dedicate this song to you
tonight we had change of the moon
we had change of the moon
tonight when I came home from work
tonight when I came home from work
tonight tonight tonight

tonight when I came home from work
tonight when I came home from work
there he unforeseen passed the guitar
and said "I battered my car
right now won't you please give me your tune"
we had a change of the moon
we had a change of the moon
tonight when I came home from work
tonight when I came home from work
tonight when I came home from work
there he unforeseen changed in an easy chair
and said "what's that sorrow you bear?"
and I could tell him, he understood
he gently took my arm
he listened to my tears 'til dawn
I dedicate this song to you
tonight we had change of the moon
we had change of the moon
tonight when I came home from work
tonight when I came home from work
tonight tonight tonight

Checkout carline van roos' bands aythis and lethian dreams. She is self taught and her voice sounds both very melancholic and soothing.
Silvery night, moonlit path, wandering, white gold, leaving light, wolfsmond, le temps d'un voyage are good songs. They are all good songs. Older lethian dreams albums are a bit rougher/heavier than the clean sound of aythis
My favorite of hers which happens to be one of my all time favorite songs I've ever heard followed by some of her local video recordings
Off the illusion and the twin album:

Tonight, when I came home from work, hurt
Tonight, when I came home from work
There he, unforeseen
Sat in my kitchen, buttering himself a bread and the cat was on his knee and smiled at me
Tonight, when I came home from work
Tonight, when I came home from work
There he, unforseen
Passed the guitar and said I battered my car right now, won't you please give me your tune
We had change of the moon
We had change of the moon
Tonight, when I came home from work
Tonight, when I came home from work
Tonight, when I came home from work
There he, unforseen
Changed in an easy chair
And said what's that sorrow you bear and I could tell him he understood
He gently took my arm
He listened to my tears till dawn
I dedicate this song to you
Tonight
We had change of the moon
We had change of the moon
Tonight, when I came home from work
Tonight, when I came home from work
Tonight, tonight
Tonight

This is one the most authentic recordings I've ever heard.

Lost this song 9 years ago. Found it tonight
A R
@Maizeak oh wow. Ya someone should contact him!
A R
@Maizeak this music was recorded in the 60s. Shes an old women now if not gone.
A R
@Maizeak someone had uploaded a bunch of her stuff including details from the granddaughter about previously unheard tracks. Then they either deleated the videos and/or I forgot Sibylles name. I typed in everything I could, but could not find the tracks again. Her name magically appeared on a different account these 9 years later. Yay.

Reminds me of the environment Sylvia Plath created within her writing.
Bonzo McDuffy
Trippy I thought of Sylvia Plath first. I like these depressing songs.
Anshuuu
Exactly Sylvia I was thinking this is familiar but with whom and you just told.
