Well so for the record I like Ys a lot! And as far the whole "ornamental" and "distanced" thing I'm talking about with the orchestration ... I'm not saying that's inherently a bad thing; I'm sure someone could make a record that did that in a way I thought was great. But on this record it does strike me as kind of a drawback. Which is why I was suggesting that maybe lots of people felt that way, and maybe that's why there's a ton of love for the live shows and recordings with a smaller group -- because one thing the live presentation definitely did was cut away this distanced/ornamental quality I'm talking about.
So, yeah. It seems like a pointed aesthetic decision and one that has some cool things about it, but there are parts of that record where I'm not sure it's the best choice. (Part of it might just be a recording thing, where the soundstage Newsom's on and the one the orchestra's on aren't meshing quite right.)

can I just, as a public service to kshighway, suggest listening to Owen Pallett / Final Fantasy, if he has not already? depending on what precisely you like about Ys, you might really enjoy his new one. thank you for your attention.

Great news, fans of harps and indie rock: Indie-rock harpist Joanna Newsom is releasing a freaking triple album. It’s called Have One on Me and it’s out February 23 on Drag City. We’ve also gotten the first official song, “'81,” and it’s exactly as somber and pretty and overbearingly twee as you’d expect.

huh, there I was listening to it and thinking that she had excised the remotest remnant of t*** from her music.
― FC Tom Tomsk Club (Merdeyeux), Wednesday, 27 January 2010 15:45 (sixteen years ago)
Until she stops singing there will always be the twee label applied to her. Whether you think it's a correct application is another thing.
I think her singing style is inherently twee.
