Joanna Newsom - Have One On Me (RIP blogs)

which, by the way, is about a monkey and a bear

so, that would be

Disc One: 43:54
Disc Two: 35:37
Disc Three: 44:31

124:02

ILM in mocking Joanna Newsom and the people who enjoy her music shocker!

Also, I never claimed that Ys is the greatest record of all time, I just said it's my personal favorite. That's it.

what if her feast really was to the east that day

124:02

not even if it cures my rheumatism, thanks

anyway yeah my "critical commitments" (aka "my favorite professors in college") tend toward the "its all surfaces, man" school, so im ok with pretty-sounding words placed in juxtaposition. i still like cam'ron.

your best buy is to the west, guy

what if her feast really was to the east that day

lol'd so fucking hard at this.

its not newsoms feast that is to the east

it is the bears feast

Those rhymes I like least.

They stink like old yeast.

Does the bear eat the monkey at the end?

Alex that doesn't rhyme

they fall in love or some shit iirc'st

was it her east, or the bear's east?

no, the bear takes off her skin and leaves the monkey

oh so it's a sex metaphor

Where is the monkey in the poster though?

you're right, this thread was better when people posted stuff like "album of the year and I haven't even heard it yet."

i like that inflammatory writ song off her 1st album which is 50% "yo this is a song abt a song btw" and 50% "clever wording"

cliffs notes--the monkey and the bear escape from the farm and travel together. the monkey makes the bear dance and sing for people in order so that they can make money to live on their own. the monkey keeps telling the bear that he loves her and its all for her benefit, that eventually they will get somewhere pleasant and happy. but the monkey is also jealous. he hears a rumor that the bear is bathing alone every night in caves near the sea. he goes to spy on her and gleefully plans on confronting her about bathing in a dirty place. but the its too late--the bear has left her skin behind and is swimming out to sea.

how dare i express subjective hyperbolic excitement for the follow-up to my favorite record

ksh--protip--youre not going to win this fight

uh there is like zero mention of any feast in that synopsis

yo guys exciting news I just got off the phone with a publicist, turns out joanna n. got a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs, spread the news

The best way to approach these things, kshingway, is to expect artists to shit on you.

I think this thread was better when it was just kshighway threatening to take Y's to old folks home and forcing people on their deathbeds to listen to it.

max: appreciated

"somewhere pleasant and happy" = "the feast in the east"

it's not an actual feast? :(

thinking of salo atm

Where are the sloppy seconds?

sigh

Oh so he joined a death panel, eh.

The feast is to the east? What about the vessel with the pestle?

i like the idea of Ys being on the soundsystem on death row

also "words that rhyme" is not the same as "clever wordplay"

the term "wordplay" should never have been allowed outside the confines of the academy tbh

Chased by a bear. x-post

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.

^^^ should've someone expressed this via a funny jpg

Is that thing under the fence supposed to be a bear? It looks like some sort of badger.
