[freewinonaradio1]

big bro is loving it

[jrustystafford]

Very well-written song! Her voice is so intimate.

[antoniabyrd]

she is so cute!



[Lundix]

Data Retention Directive anyone?

[chendel67120]

breath taking!!!!!

[NessiNessa]

Beautiful. I honestly don't understand how anybody could DISlike this. You can just see the happiness in her voice, her face and the way she plays her guitar. Made my day :)

[dobbsiancant]

very nice.anybody else hear a little bit of Regina Spektor in her vocal mannerisms and lyrical style?

[immortalizer08]

whoever is with her is a lucky man.

[squazz]

Who are the other people with the guitars?

[volcanicpancreas]

@squazz The others are Louis Ledford, Rachel Ries, and Robert Blake. They are all amazing.

[martifingers]

This has the same emotional and musical intelligence of Iris Dement's "Wasteland Of The Free"

Never heard Anais before but she is clearly a great talent.

[lizlfleury]

This is so beautiful.

[IBMeddling]

I hear this song a lot on the Katherine Albrecht show.

[swhiz]

I love her music! She is my music hit on napster every morning ^_^

[KindredFolkVT]

i will NEVER forget wandering into a hotel room at 3am in the morning on the last nite of NERFA some years ago...up for days, hearing so much music my ears were completely fried, yet being stopped dead in my tracks by this voice floating through my fog. I stayed til dawn and have never turned my back on this deliciousness. LUV YOU ANAIS!!! (((HUGS)))) btw, the whole tin pan caravan there & I give big nods to the other magic makers present that nite

[almost1776]

so true

[radaep]

Beautifull sweet strong blooming Angel

[nukersan]

The last part when she sings like is 1984... sounds sooooooo great!

[cgracian]

My old roommate and I used to be obsessed with her. We'd go to all of her shows in NH. I think she's amazing. Amazing.

[Li2k2007]

mmmmmmmmmm.

Anais Mitchell is one of the most striking and intelligent artists I've ever heard.

[PrinceSolace]

(1st Half)

down at headquarters, theres a big database

with black and white photos of the side of your beautiful face

and your library record, and all your test scores

and an invitation to party like its 1984

baby, dont look so nervous, they just want the facts

and its all written out in the usa patriot act

cause we dont take no chances in a nation at war

so tonight were gonna party like its 1984

[PrinceSolace]

(2nd Half)

oh, honey, what did i tell you about the house being bugged?

they can hear us making breakfast, they can hear us making love

but excuse me a minute- big brothers at the door

and hes ready to party like its 1984

you know youre my one and only; you always have been

sure is gonna be lonely after i turn you in

so ill wait till tomorrow to file my report

and tonight we can party like its 1984

[chemsoldier88]

its like a hippie drum cirlce... minus the drums and plus the guitars

[davidn87]

I've been obsessed with this song since I heard it on the Katherine Albrecht show.

[JazzChriss]

can u tell me where i can listen to the Katherin show "Uncovering the truth"? since theyve closed the we the people radio network i cant find it anywhere.

[beccaboone16]

anais mitchell is crazy talented! i saw her perform at the kerrville folk fest and was blown away; seeing her live is such a treat!

[happyhorsegirl13]

Wow

[0darkhorse8]

Wow. Very Joanna Newsom, minus the harp. Great stuff.

[quiver366]

i really enjoyed her music before i watched her play..now i am in love :) I throughly enjoy this song!

[LastWillandTesticle]

i was born september 18 1984!

[godkat]

She is very cute. I dig her tunes.

[JAYBOD1]

When I saw her at Last Minute Folk, a small venue series, I was very sad... Why? Because I live in Topeka, Ks, and I knew she would not be back this way... So I bought all her CDs and vowed to share them with all my friends!!! So, "BUY HER MUSIC" ...Go to her website and dump "ALL YOUR CASH" in her lap!!!

[lamusevenale]

great song and great lyrics! she as a very unique voice!!

[tru3ku75oul]

i wish i could find this song on a single lp or a downloadable one so that i can spread the message and this womans beautiful voice. any help?

[FullDisclosur]

Go to itunes store and search for her name. anais mitchell. the song is called 1984

[indielabelfan]

@FullDisclosur  cdbaby.com

[elcabi]

Always a bittersweet twist and some humour in her stuff...warring emotions rise to the surface for this listener. Looking forward to her performance at this year's Valley Stage along with Rani Arbo and the Duhks.

[gallatinfx]

THE ANSWER TO 1984 IS 1776!

[JazzChriss]

alternative media has been infiltrated... u do not know what what it means ... the New World Order. When oppresed puritans came to America in XVI Catholics were one step behind them...

[gallatinfx]

It doesn't mean what I think?

The please explain.

[gallatinfx]

Please explain

[TechsArcana]

great song.

I love the line -

"you're my one and only and you always have been

It sure will be lonely when I turn you in."

I found it on

Later.

[jimmyjoe1975]

Foregoing any pay, you should offer yourselves to the USO and play to American soldiers here in Iraq... Advertise for musicians to come out and jam. You would be surprised of how many of us play, sing, and think. We get a lot of big name stars like Kid Rock, but folksy jam sessions are more appreciated.

[FlyingComic]

Wow! Freakin' awesome song!

[senatorped]

Fantastic song.

[mynamewastakentoo]

HA!

[BASSGUY01]

Nice job.

..."party like it's 1984"...?

That thought alone is chilling.

[ThinkShink]

That was awesome.

[youcanmakeadifferenc]

what a kick!

[pblumel]

Great song, great message. An appropriate theme song for the Ron Paul revolution!

[jamescabit]

I'm in love. good god.

[somk2]

Baby voice and maybe not the best guitar player in the world but it works and her texts are beautiful indeed.. Great video, thanks !

[fromamouth]

this is so good it made me cry. she has a FANTASTIC voice and live presence. i heard her for the fist time yesterday and now i am desperate to hear more. thanks for the video, and if anyone has more, pleasepleaseplease share <3

[wwjohan]

yeah live performances is so much better~~ I love to make live performances its nothing compared :)

[wwjohan]

haha she seems to enjoy really to play . and she sings good same with the guitar.

[mikec]

That's why she's so good live! Her passion for the music is contagious.

[reptoid79]

:) So many cool people on here

[luminaia]

Ya, she's amazing. You can download her music from iTunes: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObj­ects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?­id=79166600&s=143441

[Davanita]

I LOVE her voice! Can't find her CD ANYWHERE!

[kygraves]

it's because she's relatively unknown still. i have her cd on my itunes right now because i had a friend find it at langdon street cafe in montpelier vermont. if you live in vermont and ask around enough you should be able to find it.

[miseryisbeauty]

she's signed on righteous babe records. check out that website!
