[fissan23]

I am in LOVE!!!

[electriclolly]

sweet

[sgentlemanjack112]

She was a member of The Be Good Tanyas...who are also very very good

[reeb4reeb]

She's awesome. Fuck mainstream music.

[Stigelitten]

You must listen to Rawley Taylor's version! It's hilarious! He even apoligizes to Jolie on his homepage. No wonder...

[lizzyvance]

She is so talented.

[emsky2000posse]

wa ha ha i do like morphine but not the hangovers ha wa.....

[CharismaticAvenger]

YES. Music with Horns.

[eduberlin]

Verdammt gut !



[lionneedshistiger]

Wanna take a taste with me, baby?

[Poggin15]

heard it on skins, when cassie is on the bar eating :)

[windowsforvista]

Pandora keeps recommending this to me, I must be a pretty depressing person...

[PirateDuckyy]

it does sound like tom waits but hes more into making stories with his music, this is more just about her own suicidal tendencies.. absolutely love both these artists.. I wonder if they've ever done any work together..? if not they defiantly should

[chazzysmoothe]

shes 16 times better than britney spears!

[esroopay]

@chazzysmoothe Only 16?

[adarshvenom]

must've heard this song a hundred times already.. this is one of those not appreciated enuf songs..

[attyyay]

oooh, love this

[kaptainkittykrankhei]

Her voice is so wonderful.

[lizzyvance]

I just clicked this I’m glad I did. She is good. 

[dicemanstyle]

When I listen to this song It makes me think of three things.

1. Tom Waits.

2. Heroin

3. New Orleans ?

Love this song, very cool indeed, great reference to William Burroughs.

[sistervigilante209]

in reply to lukestrummers comment...it's actually very tom waits if you listen to his earlier stuff...i'm a huge tom waits fan and i applaud you for being a fan as well...i think everyone should listen and enjoy tom waits in his entirety . but i hear alot of tom waits in this lady...shes right in between the weird stuff and the mellow stuff...mixed with a little norah jones...love it! this song especially reminds me of "how's it going to be" on real gone

[whizdoctor]

Awesomel!!!

[haviskam]

Man i just found her by sheer chance on amp3 site. She was standing right out thee. A female Tom Waits godsent... Bless my ass.

[myteli]

Question: Does this song have any relation to Howlin' Wolf's Spoonfull?. . . 'cause i think it does.

[SONOFABITCH]

@myteli I just gave that song a listen and I am inclined to disagree.

[myteli]

@SONOFABITCH i'm referring to the concept. ''a spoonful is good enough for me.'' they both originate from old blues history.

[SONOFABITCH]

@myteli I see. Thanks for the clarification.

[tannerivy]

@myteli give me that old time religion.

[lukestrummer]

Honestly as a devout Tom Waits fan. To me it has very mild influence of Tom Waits. Its far to tame to be compared to Tom in my opinion. I hear it in the writing and the music but its just far too calm.

[ANJI66ify]

Bella(＾ｰ^)ノ♥

[cjgrayside]

@Ominous09 tis an English TV show about teenagers.

[nmatavka]

Eehh, old fashioned morphine's not good enough for me---give me that old-fashioned Dilaudid, it's good enough for me!

[thelodibill]

give me some similar music tips!

[MsDugie]

btw it's Burroughs, not Boroughs

[sickwater]

@graffnin I fourth that. It was good enough for my grandpa, it's good enough for me.

[TheGeniuswaitress]

chords anyone?

[TubeFreakification]

Heard this on Radiolab. They always have great music.

[JanMarie1007]

Alsays loved this song, always will...

[graffnin]

I third that, it was good enough for my grandpa, it's good enough for me

[ANXIETOR]

sweet.

[Catalectic]

Jolie Holland is all you really need.

[joshsimrak]

This song its like real morphine a warm bath taking you over all through your veins..mothafuka .uff!

[kghsbassboy]

heard this song sang last night at the open mic,i think i might get into listening this style a lot more actually

[rush1er]

I just got some good old fashion morphine... 30 mg immediate release and 30 mg extended release. Being retarded is a mother fucker!

[epaRraW]

I have a new favorite song. Her music is amazing!!

[Sandyverygood]

we played this at our wedding!

[GDscissorhandedgurl]

Does anyone else think that they would seduce someone with this song?

I really hope I'm not the only one.

[giajac1]

@GDscissorhandedgurl yes i do!

[GDscissorhandedgurl]

@giajac1 Ah! Thank god I'm not alone.

[MsDugie]

@GDscissorhandedgurl yeah if he/she is a junkie

[bignbrown]

@MsDugie Old fashioned morphine isn't junk, it's whiskey.



[swinggeist]

@bignbrown

Yeah right. I'm sure that's what made Bill Burroughs write naked lunch....

[MsDugie]

@swinggeist exactly! haha even isabelle eberhardt experimented with drugs as far as I know

[MsDugie]

@swinggeist and it's not only naked lunch, all of his books included that kinda stuff.. he was a well known and the most respectable junkie ever!!

[Szeptun]

Suicide Girls anyone?

[darkbrood4]

@szmoku89 nah, tom waits is like her with a dick.

[JessyLovesCats]

@szmoku89 ah shit did you call that one! I fucking love Tom Waits and this is just....I <3 it!
