Found this on bolesblues: Where is Fiona Apple and why isn't she singing? The song is a great answer - never heard it that way. Thanks. All the same, I won't give up hoping for something unfamiliar. Songwriters with this kind of talent AND this voice are rare jewels!
The emotion of the 2nd time she says, "steady going nowhere" makes this version my preferred pick. I actually used to listen to this version but with the tempo adjusted 5% faster. So i guess I found this version just a tad too slow for my taste but still an awesome artist, hands down.
@fragglerokr exactly, the other one is too polished this sounds right. its true Fiona
The unreleased tracks remind me of When The Pawn which Brion worked on. The Released stuff was too pretty still good but not as jolting as the first versions
unreleased version is way better, even though the sounds sucks.
But it's true that Fiona said she thought her music was being lost in this production. I know what she means - the unreleased version is more of a collaboration between Fiona and Jon Brion. It's an awesome collaboration, though!
i think you have it twisted. fiona was unsatisfied with jon brion's version (the originals). In an interview she said it was because she felt her music was getting lost in all this instrumentation. So she asked her record company if she could redo them, and thats when she had problems with her label. The version released is HER version, as in she had more say in its production and i guess felt it represented her better than the original versions
i like the realeased songs much better. The sound is not good, and plus we don't hear her voice very clearly. that's my opinion, but i dont really understand why people prefer the unrealed versions. i think that more a questions of ideas about records company than real music pleasure.. (doesn't lmean i support records company..but..)
@opaque89 Don't be an idiot. SONY FORCED Fiona to put out a compromised version of the album. The "unoffical" versions of the song are the real songs.
@RandomNPC15 Yeah, right. You have no clue. Fiona lost all credibility with the Sony when she released when the pawn and went from 3+ million record sales with tidal to 600,000. SONY was not going to let Fiona do her music. THIS VERY SONG IS ABOUT THAT! Listen to the freekin' lyrics. The Jon Brion produced version is the REAL extraordinary machine. Fiona can't tell the truth about this... now. she probably will someday though.
@janderson2000 No WONDER!!! I ONLY like the unreleased versions...HELLLO! You can actually hear the piano, the acoustic-ness of the drums...the production of the unreleased songs is so rich and stellar--not to mention the vocals are FRESHER. the released version was tepid, bland and boxed-in...what a joke. EPIC SONY FAIL!
m really sorry, but these things freak me out sooo much! dnt read this(cuz it really wrks). u will gt kissd on the nearest frieday by the love of ur life. 2mara wll b the bst day of ur life hwever if you dnt post ths comment 2 at least 3 vids u will die withn 2 days nw uv startd readn this dnt stp this is so scary snd ths ovr 2 5 vids in 143 mins when ur done press f6 nd ur crush's name wll appear on the screen n big letters ths is so scary cuz it actully wrks ths really wrks

@NapsAboveWaterfalls It's supposed to feel "stumbly" .... she's "steady, steady, steady..." aka not steady at all.

@janderson2000 Actually it's the other way around. The ones on the album are the ones Fiona wanted to release. She got her way.
