Its great to get acquainted with her. I found Neko thru Radio Paradise- my fave stream in Second Life. She has that fragile little-girl voice backed up by some mysterious magical power. Pet her, but be careful!
Just heard her on "Coffeshop Rock" one of those TV Music Channels & wow...just had to come here & find more of her stuff! Think I'm gonna really like her! ^_^
I discovered Neko by mistake and what a great find! The stories in her songs topped with her voice make her undeniable! I grew up in Missouri so the old country influences speak to me in way I don't find in other songs!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
After discoving Neko a couple of years ago, she has quickly risen somewhere to the top of my list of my all time favorites, and I have very high standards. This latest album is wonderful, though it seems impossible, every album seems to be at par with the last or better, quite amazing that she can pull that off.
Now, that is a brilliant way to put it! I have been sitting here for days, maybe years, trying to figure out what to do with/about my love for Neko Case. I wasn't sure if it was even okay.
I have all her albums and I have to say, this is my favorite, and I didn't think that could happen. The frogs at the end are genius. And the themes. The lyrics. All the little things. God, I love her. :) I trust that her next album will also be wonderful.
Her version of the 1974 Sparks gem "Don't Turn Your Back On Mother Nature" just knocks the wind out of me...such a great tune, and the little kalimba or music box or whatever it is embedded in the two bridges of the title track...
Now this is an artist.. that is what I love about Neko. She just doesn't sing songs, she creates music, haunting, beautiful music. She helps to keep the craft and art of songwriting alive, a true musician.
As anyone else lucky enough to have met her after a show before will know, she is also a very gracious and giving lady. A real gem.
"And you know what's extra cool? The frogs!" More frog will replace more cowbell. March 3 will not come soon enough. I wish she would perform at New Orleans Jazzfest.
