  • she is 25! I love it

  • Great filming brah! She certainly is a cutie...and that voice can be very surprising to come from a daisy like that. It's beautiful work, I like these sorts of sounds...

  • When God sent his only Son, nobody realized that he would, eventually, send his only daughter.

  • i love her so much, her voice does take awhile to get used to but then it's amazing. she sounds so cute when she talks too!

  • This video is hilarious. Good post man.

  • she is magical

  • Her singing is the way it is because of her voice, whether it sounds similar to Bjork or not. I admit, Bjork came to mind the first time I heard Joanna, but I doubt there's any intention.

  • Never saw anyone playing any instrument with such ease and love.

  • that is such a beautiful song

  • LOVE this song. Obsessed with it. It's so haunting and sweet.

  • She looks like she's 16

    I hated this song the first time i heard it then it grew on me and i fell in love with it!

  • Yeh an she sounds even younger, but what the fuck.. her music is beautiful, specialy when realy stoned in winter, an snow helps, an lots of commas.. yeh, lots of commas an bad punctuation. Ahh sorry iv done it again, done what.. , , , , ? yes.. ,

  • Joanna Newsom

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Joanna Newsom (born January 18, 1982)

    Shes 25

  • wow... her voice is so captivatingly odd - apparently she's opening for bjork? I can see exactly why.

  • joanna's awesome

  • I can't believe how much I love this....

  • I absolutely love her.

  • she is 21 :)

  • You can see, how those angel fingers just play with the strings, it wonderfull... wonderfull! I love her so much!

  • I d´now if cute is the word, but shes movi´, yeah. D you know how old she is? Enyone?

  • i think she is cute, but her lyrics are intelligent and well written

  • SO CUTE ...............I L U.

  • She's magnetic. So pure. Raw. Absolutely lovely.

  • Soo screatchy, soo beautiful, soo moving.

  • She's soooooooooooo cute

  • joanna is an acquired taste.

    but once you acquire it, you cant get rid of it. :)

    shes truly incredible.

  • Agreed.  I'm addicted.

  • Great video! This is incredibly close to the studio version, so I'm assuming it also dates from 2004 or so. I hope Joanna doesn't smooth off too many edges from her characterful voice.

    Thanks for posting.

  • I hated her at first, now i love her.

  • incisive! clever! erudite!

  • I barely heard her music like 10 min ago, but i am already in love. her voice is amazing. An instant favortite. I love stumbling on sounds that are different and full of spirit like Joanna's.

  • Her music rocks; her voice is beautiful, as are her intelligent and interesting lyrics. I'd rather not stop listening but you may if you'd like.

  • a different taste for music, thank u joanna, i enjoy it alot.

  • good G-d she's lovely. i'd love to find a girl like her. sounds romantic cliché-ish but it's true.

  • I'm not sure I get how people gripe about her voice. Yes, it's different, but technically there's nothing wrong with it. She's hitting all the pitches she wants. Her voice is intrinsically tied to her music, like Waits or Dylan or whoever.

  • If you can listen to Dylan, Jeff Magnum, Bjork etc there should be no problem appreciating her voice given time. It took me a while but it was worth it.

  • I love how her voice has changed and matured over time. <3

  • love it and love bjork but they sound nothing like each other. why do people keep saying they do?

  • Oh dear Don.

    Everybody criticised Billie Holiday saying that her voice was awful. A lot of people think that Frank Sinatra isn't technically a very good singer and that Bob Dylan was a great writer but everyone else seems to be able to perform his songs better than he ever could... 'cos y'know what? People have different tastes, so get over it.

    Love x

  • Awwcmm she's mine. You can't have her. OMGG what is with this chic. I think she knows magic. I love her.

  • I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS WOMAN, and that IS to say something. She is amazing. I want to have a child with her.

  • This song makes me cry every time. Right when she says "this is an old song"

  • Donovan and his mighty hurdygurdy! Miss Newsom is classically trained at her craft, and i did not get the impression that she is fake when i met her. If she is fake, she puts up a damn good front.

  • I agree, her freaking voice reminds me of Bjork (not so much of Bjork's voice but the same style of freaking voice in a singer and for her age) =) Thank you so very much for posting this! Never saw nothing of hers alive, but 'Sprout and the Bean' vid so far. She's so sweet and pretty! Lovely =) I love the album, I do have it ;)

  • I heard Joanna on SIRIUS and fell in love. Her voice is amazing. Sorta a mix of Bjork and Jolie Holland. Unfortuantely she was too close to the mic attimes in this video. Still amazing.

  • just kidding kinda.

  • aint she grand?

  • ys is album of the year

  • she's using alternate tunings on the harp.

  • joanna is amazing.

    She has such an innocent voice.

    Like an Angel.

  • I love it. Words can't even describe.

  • absolutely amazing. beautiful. ah.

  • do you have "sprout and the bean."?

  • Awesome stuff, thanks for uploading this.
