1989 marks the founding of that deepest of dark bands,
Sopor Aeternus (Eternal Sleep, or Sleep of Death). It began
when the two musicians known as Varney and Holger met in a
Frankfurt, Germany goth club. With no money to buy
instruments, they had to compose their music completely in
their heads. Nevertheless, they released a triad of
lyrically intense yet technically flawed demo cassettes (Es
Reiten Die Toten so Schnell, Rufus, and 'Till Time and
Times Are Done) in 1992. After that, Holger left the band

Sopor Aeternus is, indeed, a most amazing band!
And this song so happens to be one of their most brilliant song. The words and the meaning of these are incredible...as is the music, of course.
If you have not yet heard this song I seriousely recommend that you do it now. Right now.
If, however, you are so unfortunate to as not having heard this truly haunting tune yet, then do it straight away and prepear to get hooked!

------ About the song The Sleeper performed by Sopor Aeternus
This is the first Sopor Aeternus song I heared, and I have to tell you that it's very unusual. Well, he uses baroque stuff which is surprising for a suck person like Anna, and his voice sounds like he's crying. And again I think if to take him seriously or not. Any how- I think that the music is wonderfull, but the person behind it is so NOT.
