Finished my first full listen, liking it a LOT better than Ys already. But don't really take a lot of stock in me saying that, as I never fully came around on that one anyway. Definitely some songs I liked a whole lot more than others ("Good Intentions", "Baby Birch", "Esme" and "Kingfisher" all immediately come to mind) but I didn't find myself wanting to skip anyway. This will certainly take a lot more time to digest.

I think the only thing left to do is to make ILX's own Have One On Me like a certain U2 album.

Nobody notice a 'New York Tendaberry' vibe about this...

with JN, it helps to listen along while reading the lyrics. It's a very solid record/Go Long, still a favourite.

If Joanna looked like Beth Ditto this thread would only have five messages posted to it.
― mottdeterre, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 16:44 (sixteen years ago)
Has anyone here interviewed Beth Ditto in the past 6 months?
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 16:45 (sixteen years ago)
how many posts would there be if she looked like lady gaga? amy winehouse??

Standing In The Way Of Centaur
i actually thought, then, 'the next post is going to be some kind of pun on standing in the way of control, but with something twee and/or mythical'? and then i hit return?
― thomp, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:05 (sixteen years ago)
refresh, rather
she isn't really preppy or ivy leaguewest coast hippie/art school maybe
― velko, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:06 (sixteen years ago)
let me just ask a somewhat loaded question:if joanna newsom was beth ditto instead - but nothing else were different - how would you feel?
― idgi, mon (k3vin k.), Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:07 (sixteen years ago)
those songs would sound really, really different
― Jack the Dude-Kicker (HI DERE), Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:07 (sixteen years ago)
I never would have made my "goose being put through a garlic press" analogy ;_;
― Jack the Dude-Kicker (HI DERE), Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:08 (sixteen years ago)
i like mama cass and francoise hardy - how can this be?
― velko, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:08 (sixteen years ago)
so wait if joanna newsom was in the gossip and sang and beth ditto rode unicorns and dated the cast of SNL, how would i feel? is that the question?
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:09 (sixteen years ago)
yes
― idgi, mon (k3vin k.), Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:10 (sixteen years ago)
i would feel. . . strange
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:10 (sixteen years ago)
has anyone written about the influence of the Waldorf School on Joanna Newsom's music/lyrics? Cuz it's gotta be huge.
― tylerw, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:11 (sixteen years ago)
i think beth ditto can sing better than JN, for one thing.
also, i feel sorry for that poor unicorn
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:11 (sixteen years ago)
i hope we're on the same page here que fwiw
― idgi, mon (k3vin k.), Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:11 (sixteen years ago)
I thought she was more of the Statler School
― Jack the Dude-Kicker (HI DERE), Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:12 (sixteen years ago)
what page would that be
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:12 (sixteen years ago)

Come anticipate Kill Bill with me
― idgi, mon (k3vin k.), Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:13 (sixteen years ago)
statler school?
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:13 (sixteen years ago)
I would still find both appalling and listen to neither.

yeah, what does statler school mean? hotel management? seriously though, I think Newsom is deep into Waldorf stuff!
― tylerw, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:14 (sixteen years ago)
I was wondering something similar -- would I like Newsom's compositions more if they were sung by someone else. At this point I've gotta imagine anything would be an improvement over her voice.
― Mordy, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:14 (sixteen years ago)
oh jesus, i've been pwned by a muppet joke
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:15 (sixteen years ago)

Okay you people who aren't getting the Statler joke are disgusting savages etc.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:15 (sixteen years ago)
Hahahahaha keep bringing the lols Joanna Newsom thread!
― you gone float up with it (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:15 (sixteen years ago)
its funny how much her voice turns ppl off
― max, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:16 (sixteen years ago)
ohhhh i get it. ha.
― tylerw, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:17 (sixteen years ago)
i listened to one of the new songs yesterday and i could not stop laughing at her voice.
still want to see her on the muppet show, though.
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:17 (sixteen years ago)
I'm just not a big fan of anything that sounds like Joni Mitchell stabbed occasionally by a cattle prod.
― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 24 February 2010 17:19 (sixteen years ago)
you guys have no idea how delighted you have made me
