As the title tells you, this is very dreamy, and the vocals start late in the song. If I close my eyes listening to this there is a feeling of being very light, as in water or on the moon.

| Fluffy Tufts | 3.05 | Like waking up and watching ice crystals on the bedroom window. | * * * |
| Throughout the Dark Months of April and May | 3.05 | The most obvious song on this album, with a clear melody. I love the feeling of a dialogue, when the shimmering voice meets with the more concrete. | * * * * |
| Whales Tails | 3.20 | Cool. | * * * * |
| Oomingmak | 2.43 | see the box set EP | * * * |
| It almost sounds like Elizabeth Fraser is rattling off rhymes, and that is a nice contrast to the airy sounds. | |||
| Little Spacey | 3.26 | I love it, it has a verse/refrain feel that gives balance with a very subtle intensification towards the refrain which makes the song equally beautiful all over. | * * * * |
| Feet-like Fins | 3.26 | see Otherness | * * * |
| This song contains a lot of different elements which makes it difficult to grasp. It feels like a few songs mixed together. | |||
| How to Bring a Blush to the Snow | 3.51 | In the same mood as the other songs. Beautiful like crispy snow. | * * * |
| The Thinner the Air | 3.15 | It feels sad, Fraser's voice sounds so longing. A perfect farewell from Victorialand. | * * * |
| By the looks of my ratings you might think I am not that fond of Victorialand. I am. I think that because the songs do not fight with each other for attention, but simply blend into a whole, it is a divine album, but with no stand out tracks. The all over feeling of the album and the titles in particular are arctic like crispy white snow. |  |
