Sounds Like
Well, some people say I sound elf-like or haunting. Ah, how to describe ones own music...? My music has high levels of emotional ambience, and is simplistic and listenable. What do you think?
Bio Written by Dr. R.D.Roberts:
Born in Norway, Cris Valkyria has crammed a lot of life in her few short years. Aside from traveling to the far corners of the world to gather inspiration for her life and music, she also has tried her hand at, and mastered, the martial arts, horse racing, psychology, painting, clothes design, performing arts, counseling, research, and writing. The musical manifestation of this chameleon is sure to please. Her lyrics touch both the heart and the cortex, while her voice is an intoxicating blend of Nordic and Oxford English, that is almost elven in its other worldliness. Don't miss this modern day Rennaissance woman!
I hope my music touches you - Cris Valkyria

You are a “Whole” Carl? He said Yes a”Tree”, but what do you think is whole about me {?}……….Do not be a Narrow Minded Bigot……See My Body as 1 with all, see My Blood as what I communicate From Brother Sun and Drink from the Bounty of Water.
I said Carl you are a Tree, and Individual, The White Birch said aha….You see My Root’s and feel apart….You See My Trunk and Feel apart….You See My Branch’s and Leaf’s and feel Apart……but can I see YOUR’S TIM…and feel Apart.
I thought for a Long Time and Said Do You have My Answer Carl said “Yes”….HE asked Do You See what part of the ME you are? I said YES! Do YOU see what part of ME you are “WHITE BIRCH?”
Carl said Yes, I am the Beat of your Heart, today!
I said Yes YOU are and Today Carl I am your SUN……Thank you for Your BLOOD!
“TIM” Carl said, Do you Know why My Leaf’s fall….? Yes, I said, SO THEY WILL NEVER DIE! WE BOTH SAID IN UNISON….I AM THIRSTY….LET’S GET SOME WATER….
I started to walk to the Lake and Carl said Wait Up, I am Stuck……I said You Need Not Move My Brother….I will Bring the Water to You for all the Time’s You Brought The Rain 4 ME.
