years ago my sister and i had a game takin turns finding the most annoying song to force the other to listen to. i discovered this song and won, by her admission, forever
This sounds like an attempt at Jeff Mangum style vocals. It could be good… but misses the mark. I wouldn’t call it the worst though. It’s definitely has the indie vibe of other music I enjoy.
i don't like harpsichords, but i could forgive that and even enjoy the rest of the album if it weren't for her singing style. its something about the baby-talk voice, i hate it. i don't even know why i hate it, but it grates. some songs i hate and laugh, complain, joke about.
this one ill just leave the room, i cannot abide it. i got a little mad just listening to it for a moment when i linked it lol
Haha! Poor Joanna Newsom. Fantastic musician and songwriter, but yeah, her voice takes some getting used to. Or not.
Her lyrics are great, she should write novels or something. Shame it took me a lifetime of knowing women to understand most of the meaning.
While reading them, though, I had to listen to "Blitzkrieg Bop" on repeat, because I cannot stand her voice. -_-
Seems like she's going for the Kate Bush vibes but it doesn't sound nearly as good
That sure is a voice
I actually really liked it. It sounds imperfect in a lot of ways, which I love in music. It sounds like a real person singing, who maybe wasn't meant to be a singer, but who is singing anyway.
if you like it i am honestly happy to being it to you!
Oh that is my new most hated song. Wow
