1. Willow Camille Reign Smith (born October 31, 2000 in Los Angeles, United States) is an American child actress and singer who is the daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith. She made her acting debut in 2007 in the film I Am Legend, and was most successful in the film Kit Kittredge: An American Girl where she won the Young artist award for Best Performance in a Feature Film. Apart from her acting she launched a music career in the fall of 2010 with the release of her debut single “Whip My Hair” and signing to Jay-Z’s record label Roc Nation. Willow has released 4 studio albums; her debut, ARDIPITHECUS released in 2015, The 1st released in 2017, WILLOW released in 2019 and lately I feel EVERYTHING released in 2021. She is also part of THE ANXIETY, a collaborative project with Tyler Cole. The projects debut album, THE ANXIETY, was released in 2020.
2. Willow was a four piece instrumental group from Newnan, GA.
Kyle Coleman-Drums/Fast Driving, Matt McClellan-Bass/Keys/Jingle Bells, Tanner Merritt-Guitar/Funny Faces & Rob Sepanski-Mandolin/Violin/Noise
3. Willow is a young Belgian indie rock band that started in 2007. They create solid, semi-danceable, catchy popsongs with hints of new wave. In their short existence Willow won several rockcontests, with most notably Rockvonk 2009. In 2010 they became 3rd in Humo’s Rock Rally and won the KBC public’s choice award. They are known for their energetic live performance and their refreshing take on music history while still being capable of maintaining their own sound.
4. Willow is a self-taught singer/songwriter, who, in 1992 put down her Bible and picked up a pawn shop guitar. Three chords later, the songs came flowing out. Judging from the fact that she had no subsequent musical experience, one could say she’s a bit of a preternatural chanteuse. Like post-Christian rocker contemporaries, Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson, Willow’s papa is a preacher man and prior to her fateful leap, she was an enrollee at Multnomah School of the Bible in Portland Oregon. The result of her departure from conservative religion…her musical renderings are of an evolution of a spiritual nature - an earthly, poetic dance in the dark. For those familiar with the fire and brimstone of artist Nick Cave, Willow may be the polar sweet angel of darkness, redemption and desire.
5. Willow was a rock-band from The Hague, The Netherlands. The band was formed by Marlein Heskes-Duarte and Rui Duarte. They’ve had multiple guitar players in the 6 years they made music. The music also changed everytime a new guitar player entered the band. Started out as an alternative rock band, they soon changed their sound to a more punk-rock sound, and in the last year added a nu-metal vibe to their sound.
Willow had some succes in their hometown and surroundings, having played more than a 100 shows, including the Paard van Troje, Plein Open festival, HOT festival and recorded a videoclip in the local tv-studio “TV West” for the song Spinning Around.
The Duarte’s have recently started a new band called Man-Made Madness, which also includes ex-Willow guitar-player Jordy Licht.
6. Willow is a math rock trio from Providence, Rhode Island, United States. Their debut EP, "Roanoke" was issued in 2012.
7. Sophie Wilson AKA Willow first made her introduction in 2014 when her debut Feel Me caused a stir when ambient techno veteran Move D included it on his Fabric 74 mix. A year later, the song finally received a proper release on Workshop's compilation EP Workshop 21 – the sub-heavy house tune with an earworm R&B vocal was a highlight on the LP which was number 6 in Resident Advisor tracks of 2015.
Rewind two years to the start of an on-going residency in Nottingham for 808, the chance to play alongside Anton Zap, Fred P, Tama Sumo and of course Move D, have shaped and crafted her tastes and DJ style which ranges from house to techno and all that falls in-between.
8. German hard rock band, 1990s. Frank Tauscher - vocals Stefan Iburg - guitar Matthias Franke - guitar/keyboards Jens Beckmann - bass Ralf Striewski - drums.

WILLOW Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ain't tryna step on no toes
Ain't tryna bust no bowls
But I'm just trying to get home
'Cause the moon is bright, the sheets are dark
The kids in the alley, they're howling
I walk the streets, trying to find a place to sit
But all I have is you, this ghost inside my brain
I'm lost in the light
I'm feeling really bright
I don't wanna spend the night
I just want a cool breeze, warm stream while we're looking at the trees
I'm howling, I'm howling
Lost in the night
I really wanna cry
I don't sleep at night
I'm going out with those kids, we're howling, we're howling
Kids, we do what is right
We do what is wrong
But what is right?
Please explain to me what is wrong
We do what we feel
We make our own path
Hop out now
We're the indigo, we're the indigos and we're all going to another place
Not tryna find another name
Not tryna get in another body
I'm going to ascension, baby you cannot stop me
You cannot stop me
'Cause the moon is bright, the sheets are dark
The kids in the alley, they're howling
I walk the streets, trying to find a place to sit
A person to talk to
But all I have is you, this ghost inside my brain
I'm lost in the tide
I don't think I can get out
I'm swimming from that sharp mouth
And that island of the doll is really far away
I don't think I will make it at all
But I fall
With some Atlanteans, Nephilims, the Martians and some Anunnaki, we all fall
What happens when we fall?
We go down in consciousness and we rise into a light like
What the heck is happening?
Why am I here? Why can I sing?
Why am I across the sea? This is crazy
I wanna go home, I wanna go home
The song "Cycles" by Willow is a contemplative track that talks about the struggles of finding a place to belong and searching for one's purpose in life. The opening verse of the song sets the tone for the piece, where Willow sings that she's not trying to create any conflicts or disturb anyone, rather she just wants to get back home. The moon, darkness, and howling of the kids in the crooked alley set a dark and moody tone for the song. Willow continues to introspect her life and the ghost inside her brain that haunts her every step. Despite feeling lost, bright, and overwhelmed by emotions, Willow finds solace in a cool breeze and the beauty of nature, yet she still cannot avoid being lost in the night with a feeling of sadness and despair.
The chorus features Willow's howling and longing for an explanation of what is right and wrong, as she navigates her way through life. She believes in forging her own path and escaping to the next level in consciousness, unshackling herself from this existential plane. Willow speaks about going down in consciousness and rising into a light, drawing from myths and tales of the Atlanteans, Nephilims, Martians, and Anunnaki. She is searching for answers about her strange existence and why she is here in a place far away from home.

Kids, we do what is right
We try to make good choices and do what is best for us and others
We do what is wrong
Sometimes we make mistakes or go against what is expected
But what is right?
We may not always know what the right thing to do is
Please explain to me what is wrong
We may struggle to understand why we make certain choices
We do what we feel
We follow our instincts and emotions
We make our own path
We don't always follow the path that others have set for us
Hop out now
We are breaking free from the status quo and taking risks
We're the indigo, we're the indigos and we're all going to another place
We are a unique and visionary group that is looking towards the future
Not tryna find another name
We don't need to conform or fit into a certain category
Not tryna get in another body
We are comfortable with who we are and don't need to change ourselves to fit in
I'm going to ascension, baby you cannot stop me
I am pursuing a higher level of consciousness and growth, and nothing can hold me back
I'm lost in the tide
I am struggling and overwhelmed by the forces around me
I don't think I can get out
I feel trapped and unable to free myself
I'm swimming from that sharp mouth
I am trying to escape from something dangerous or harmful
And that island of the doll is really far away
A sense of safety and comfort is distant and hard to reach
But I fall
I experience setbacks and failures
With some Atlanteans, Nephilims, the Martians and some Anunnaki, we all fall
We are all vulnerable to the same struggles and hardships
What happens when we fall?
We face challenges and difficulties, but we can also learn and grow from them
We go down in consciousness and we rise into a light like
We can sink into despair, but we can also find new hope and optimism
What the heck is happening?
We may struggle to understand or make sense of our surroundings
Why am I here? Why can I sing?
We may question our purpose and abilities
Why am I across the sea? This is crazy
We may feel lost or disoriented in unfamiliar surroundings
I wanna go home, I wanna go home
We long for a sense of familiarity and comfort

When she was writing this album she was in phase of cutting. She was feeling lots of pain and rebelling against her parents because they were kinda forcing her unto the fame path.
@lateshiachilds3640
I love her music, I had to purchase her mp3 album on amazon I would rather have a physical CD. I’m 37 and think she is a great artist.
@duvallkid1991

@moniquebroady8581
I can imagine a holy ascension. Actually I think of it quite often. I mean to leave the body and be surrounded by comforting light. Embraced by angels of a heavenly delight. The sounds oh I can imagine their beautiful song.❤️
@xquavius
I really dig her high register now. At first I hated it but now you can feel the emotion lol

@wm396
Thank you ❤️
@idkanymore2183
I feel like this song was about her astral projecting just like randomsong because the end where she said "I wanna go home." The song ended after she said that and usually when you astral project and say or think something like that you usually go back to your body so idk
Idk tho
