Wen d’r maar aan

Anouk

A surprising pivot to Dutch lyrics. Stripped-back acoustic arrangements and hushed, raspy vocals create a vulnerable, domestic intimacy unlike her arena-rock past.

A weary but beautiful acceptance of life's complexities, delivered with hushed intimacy.

Moments Worth Listening For
The title track's transition from a hesitant acoustic opening to a full, soulful realization of self-acceptance.
The stark, piano-led intimacy of 'Red mij' where the vocals sound like they are being whispered directly into your ear.
The swell of strings on 'Lente' that provides a rare moment of orchestral hope amidst the album's general melancholy.
