The Mountain Goats - Black Pear Tree, Ships and Dip V Feb 5th 2009 Part 7

The Kaki King version is interesting because her phrasing and melodic style are exactly like Darnielle's. I imagine he had it all plotted out beforehand and she just copied it note for note.

this is from his ep with kaki king of the same name. she sings the majority of the song, but i immediately heard john's writing the first time i heard the song.

John's masterpieces have helped me through hardtimes...
