Quote by Andréa- ”I have learned a lot over the past years and evolved greatly. I particularly learned what NOT to do as an artist. I don’t want to be known for this or that theme I might have done in the past, and I don’t want to have a label on my forehead. I want to be known for being an artist, a person who loves to explore, goes her own way and is not afraid to stand alone."
"I realised that personal art comes from within. It speaks to everyone, it goes beyond fasades and ideologies, it just connects to the pain of the heart that everyone knows in their own way. I had to learn early in life to fight, and I'm not afraid to do so. I like to connect to individuals that also have the darkness inside and that experienced hardships... ”

Sleeping Beauty
Nebelhexë Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Little Wolf, so peaceful
Oh, so beautiful
Dreaming of his life
Dreaming of better days
What does he see, that makes him sleep so tranquilly?
Sleep and dream
Oh so beautiful
Dreaming of lovely things
Made in fairy-tale land
What does she see that makes her smile so happily?
Sleep and dream
Little one that was me
See the marketplace of the past
See the well, see the forest, see the circle
See the hanging men...
And did they hang the little wolf too?
Good, that not all dreams come true
The lyrics to Nebelhexë's song Sleeping Beauty convey a sense of peacefulness and dreams. The song starts by describing a little wolf sleeping, dreaming of better days. The second verse shifts focus to a little girl sleeping and dreaming of lovely things made in fairy-tale land. The final verse takes a darker turn as the singer reflects on their own dreams of the past, envisioning the marketplace, the well, the forest, and the circle. However, they also imagine seeing hanging men and wonder if the little wolf was among them. Despite this darkness, the singer is comforted by the fact that not all dreams come true.
Overall, the song seems to be about finding peace in dreams and using them as an escape from reality. The little wolf and little girl represent a sense of innocence and wonder, while the singer reflects on the more complicated and possibly traumatic aspects of their life. The final line may be interpreted as a reminder that not all dreams should be taken literally and that it's important to find balance between our dreams and reality.
