Joanna Newsom - What do you make of her?

Never really sat down and listened before but the reviews of her new album pricked my interest. This is part Kate Bush part Bjork part Liz Fraser in a language all of her own.

I like it…I think…

Yeah I listened to a couple of things from her early output but couldn’t get past the squeeky little girl with a harp bit.

Yep I’ve pre-ordered the new one. Which of the back catalog did you buy Matt?

The Milk-Eyed Mender

Listened to her a few years back and it irritated the living shit out of me. I may have been hasty in my judgement but have never returned to find out. I’m harsh like that. Cross me once and I shall never forget it.

Me too…but this is different from the early stuff.

I suggest that this would be a good opening statement when you arrive at your cut-price B&B. Just in case like.

Sorry, KRG no offence intended :slight_smile:

Heh. You probably aren’t far off.

Joanna Newsom - That track sounds like Julian Cope/Tori Amos.

T’other one’s ok: bit shrill though.

Would like a song with an interesting lyric now and again though.
