A softly spoken reading of The Little Mermaid. This bedtime story features occasional sound and vocal effects and soft singing to immerse you into the story. Note this is the traditional fairy tale which ends very differently from the Disney version, so be warned that most traditional fairy tales are not super happy endings.

I really hope you like it. Some parts are more soft spoken than others, and some parts get a little louder, because I had to record at a few different times in the middle of the night.  This was a rather daunting recording to edit, as it’s the longest one I think I’ve ever recorded. I edited for at least 12 hours, and it's still not perfect, but I really hope it's good enough for you. I also experimented for the first time with some vocal effects, which I very much hope you like and umm, don’t dislike.  Regardless of how much I tried to have a completely quiet setting, there were times when I didn’t notice motors running or the computer fan on, so I hope it’s still cohesive enough for your ears to enjoy. All around, there's a lot of hoping.
I wanted to bring a different kind of magic to this story separate from the Disney version (even though there is a nod to it somewhere), so I hope that comes through in this reading.  The ending is a bit abrupt, but that’s how the story ends! Haha I tried to make it as little abrupt as possible.

I was searching for Mermish language on the interwebs and couldn’t find a full language, just bits and pieces. So I then looked for Elvish songs to incorporate into the story and happened to find a GORGEOUS song from an AMAZING channel that has all kinds of original Elvish songs. That’s so cool, isn’t it?!  So I embellished a bit, and had mermaids singing in Elvish… because elves and mermaids are totally distant cousins, right?  :P  While I did sing the a'capella version in this video, all music and harmony credit belongs to the song composers, and I rearranged just a few lyrics to have it make sense with the context of the mermaids singing.

“Mermaid Song”:
Lullaby from a Distant Land, by Forest Elves

Lastly, I want to thank the wonderful people who reached out to me this weekend. I had a sad week and your messages comforted me during a time when I’ve never needed comfort more. Thank you. I love you so freaking much. I say this a lot, but the ASMR community changed my life. There isn’t a day, or an hour that goes by where I don’t think of my channel, or the awesome people I have met because of YouTube.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.    AGL

ASMR can help provide relief from insomnia, depression, stress, and anxiety, and I really hope that I can help others to find more peace in their day. However, I'm not a professional, and because of that, I want to at least point you in the right direction if you’re looking for long term help for your anxiety and depression:
