I can't get over how brilliant she is. Her music is beautiful, the arrangements are beautiful, the words, beautiful. I want to quote her, but I can't begin to pick just one or two lines. They're all so good!
In the stars, set order. We could stand for a century, starin' , with our heads cocked in the broad daylight at this thing. Joy, landlocked in bodies that don't keep. Dumbstruck with the sweetness of being 'til we don't be!!!
Joanna...those lyrics kill me everytime! Dumbstruck!
One of the things that makes this among her most skillful is that although she's doing a lot of imaginative, modern and free verse things with lyrics, it also feels ancient. The way she talks about kingdoms, pharoahs, the Pleiades, Pharisees, its almost like an old Arabic love song, particuarly the way she describes the beloved in the window, it evokes Taht il Shibbak. Or "sun pouring wine Lord or marrow down into the bones of the birches" could fit into the Songs of Soloman comfortably. Beauty
i love playing with the speed on this :)

Love this song! Thanks for creating this with lyrics - I'd like to see a version with corrected lyrics, and it's wonderful all the same.

"Peonies nod in the breeze and while they wetly bow, with hydrocephalitic listlessness ants mop up their brow."
Doesn't she blow your head clean off?!
