Cheryl meets Cocorosie and bjork. Here is the outcome

[kindofmagicmike]

wait, so this is just a video of joanna newsom? not a collaboration with cocorosie bjork and cheryl? because thats what i thought this was, and was kind of excited to see that

[MyNameisRavenCrone]

Don't ever say that Joanna's voice sounds like a child. THAT IS BULLSHIT.

and I'm sorry, Bjork and CocoRosie along with Joanna are all different. They are only related because how fantastically odd artists they all are.

[zorkiglass]

Hey, I just posted this video because Coco and Cheryl combined create Joanna. All are great in their own respect. Cheryl is a harp player for the Sarasota Symphony.

[feanese]

well...i don't even know who cheryl is. cheryl what?

but i know joanna newsom very well, and i don't really get the comparision, i think newsom and cocorosie both came out about the same time, no?

like someone else already said..just name it joanna newsom

but besides that, this is a nice video .

[SparkleUnicornFace]

stop comparing her to Bjork, kids. she is her own unique artist, and she is magnificent.

[weirdo968]

weird, i love it

[cuddlebuttons]

she's so freaky and adorably, bizarrely gifted

[xdigitalMourning]

there is nothing child like about joanna newsom except her voice. her lyrics are intense.

[explodethisbody]

Sometimes Joanna sounds like Bjork, and sometimes Bianca sounds like Bjork, but besides that I don't think that their music itself is all that similar; I do, however, think that they all write their music from a very similar, child-like point of view. Joanna and Cocorosie have both spoken about their deliberacy in doing this. If you care to take this a step further, Louise Bourgeois also makes work from this same perspective. It's very different, of course...but still somehow similar.

[fdmipgo]

The title is misleading. And that makes the video some what of a let down. Why not just call it joanna newsom?

[TheStrangeRanger]

IMO Joanna is much more of a prodigy than Cheryl, Cocorosie singer, or bjork. "Monkey and bear" and, especially, "emily" are evidence of that.

[loopy77]

Okay, i've listened to this a few times:

I can indeed see bits of her vocalizations as Bjork-y/CocoRosie-ish, and the variability in melody as Bjork-y/CocoRosie-ish...it's a beautiful blend.

[zorkiglass]

Great! I am glad that finally saw something in it that I have

[QberryZinc09]

no, dude. stop comparing them, it ruins it.

[karlykohlman]

I believe it was John Lennon who said "All musicians are ripping somebody off."

I mean, even elvis who was the "original king of rock and roll" was totally ripping off old blues musicians. One of his biggest hits (Hound Dog) was a Big Momma Thornton cover. I think it would be an honor to be compared to Bjork. That's a pretty huge honor.

[QberryZinc09]

I'm not saying that Bjork isn't totally awesome, or Cocorosie. I like all of them, I just think that zorkiglass isn't giving Joanna Newsom enough credit for being her own person and musician (and a rather fantastic one).

[TheSupersurgical]

@QberryZinc09 . ..I would compare them in the realm of Great Magical Voices. <3

[TheSupersurgical]

@loopy77 . .....Joanna newsom might pre-date CoCo RoSiE,, at least I was aware of her slightly before CoCoRoSiE.. .... <3 them all.

[loopy77]

Apt comparisons or not, this was a beautiful, fun performance. I guess i'm off to see more...

If we're just freeballin' recc'd acts of like sound/spirit, check out Anthony singing "If It Be Your Will", you won't be disappointed.

[morricone1900]

This must have been one hell of a concert -- every video of every song I've seen from this has been excellent, both in terms of the performances and the overall vibe of every song. Whoever got to see this show must have been extremely lucky indeed. :)

[danieldmzp]

que cancion tan hermosaa

magnifica interpretacionnn

[liboriodrogo]

super con mauvaise blague ses moche comme de la mer...ses bete ses stupide ses laid ses orible ses biesse ses afreus ses degue ses puent ses rien ses vide ses vieu ses caserole ses marmitte ses punaise ses loin ses rien ses teriblement moche que sa me donne envie de vaumir je pourais en dires plus mais a quoi bon ,puisque ses de la M.....

[Transatlantwiches]

The only connections with Cocorosie I see are the harp and the fact that Bianca (of Cocorosie) generally sings a lot like Joanna.

[Raissakoala1]

Great! but....Cocorosie and Björk? where are they?

[psypants]

Who is Cheryl?

[cabaretf]

this song is called Monkey & Bear. it's by Joanna Newsom. (Ys album)

[looksi]

what does this have to do with björk and or coco rosie? i am a fan of all 3 (4) lovely ladies.......but i really dont see the connection.....

[adramatictheme]

extremely amazing

[kkkkiiiimmmmoooo]

you really should credit Joanna Newsom .

[blacksapphire123]

Unusual but not unpleasant sound.
