Emmy The Great is incredible, don't think she isn't because she isn't doing great in the charts. With most acts these days, it they are in the charts, it's because they appeal to the lowest denominator of people in British and American society.
But the UK especially will always have a core group of proper music lovers, where the likes of Emmy and Seth Lakeman will be appreciated for the incredible talent they have.
@nevermind1927 You can be a successful artist without being in the charts. And being in the charts means nothing, there’s a lot of shit in the top 40 these days. I wouldn’t want to be surrounded with that. The most talented artists are hardly seen in charts.
I fucking love this. Emmy, you have a gift, come to the usa, come and stay at my house, I'll drink just enough to sing with you and you'll be so gracious as not to bash me or look at me funny.
Ha ha ha! My oh my, she got you good and proper Mr Adam Richard! On the internet as well, fucking hell!...and for the record, Bob, you are my hero, and I only met you twice, admittedly yourself and Storm took my drugs and didn't say thank you, but it was an entertaining evening none the less. Nice hat too. And my fondest regards to Emmy xx gotta love the internet...ha ha ha!
I love this video, I don't think it would be possible to make a video that "fits" without it being too upsetting, or becoming a film! That is such a cute baby :) I love Emmy, I saw her at The Big Chill, she was really good and really funny
The video doesn't fit very well even if it is funny. The song is so wonderful, I love how it sounds kind of jaunty and pretty and the lyrics are so horrifying.
It's a funny idea, badly done. I'm as bad a Dad as this guy! I saw her live a couple of days ago. She can really sing and it grips you listening to all the stories she tells. Let's face it she's not in the same league as Billy Bragg or Joni Mitchell yet but I hope she sticks with it.
To be honest, I think the vid could've been better - but honestly - the girl used her brain and her emotions to make the video. Therefore, the video could never be rubbish.
I wish I was around there. I'd make a video. I love her music, and it inspires me in my film work.
which i do for fun... obviously being some talentless moron who thinks they could make a career out of music videos would be highly embarrassing. how do you deal with it?
if you are not smiling due to this conversation then you have a problem. its funny, you know that "i like" video you made? i could swear we have the same taste (except im not so bitter) Prince, Biggy, Noam Chomsky, i prefer Root beer to D&B and i bet you like Roger Troutman too x
maybe i do have no sense of humour because i find you hilarious - the greatness of zapp and root beer could still never redeem a man who tried to stick up for this shit
Are you all mad? This is one of the best music videos ever made...up there with Slow Club and Bob Dylan! The only bad thing about is I found I wasn't listening to the brilliance of the song as I was laughing too much!
The video is funny, but it's just too amateur, don't you think?
Anyway, I love Emmy and I hope she's very succesful with her album! She could be big with a proper promo...but unfortunately, I don't think she'll have that ...
Hilarious video :D Can't wait for the single! I still think you should do a proper release of 'The Hypnotist's Son' though, that's song is so amaaazing!
I don't like female songwriters, normally, but this is a moving song. If you can strike a chord with the blokes, then you are on to something.
Keep it up Emmy!
