the entirety of side three of HOOM is fucking painfully perfect.
and I don't usually need or want to use that type of language to get a point across.
but it's fucking true.

she is a brilliant lyricist
-
her voice is so powerful, and beautiful.
-
Not just because of the similar theme, but this always makes me think of Tom Milsom's Autumn song. They're both incredibly beautiful, and capture the mood perfectly.
I love awesome music :)

i remember the day i heard this song. I was on my way home in a car with my father and i was in such a bad mood for certain reasons, it was in the dead of autumn and it plays on the radio after i spent about 10 minutes looking for a decent radio station that diddnt succumb to "top hits". Autumn played and i remember looking out the window with the night black even with the street lights and watching the leaves fly on the parkway. Im in love with this woman

Yeah I changed my mind haha. It's one of those that (for me) wasn't melodically mindblowing right away, but as it grows on you... It fucking envelops you. Can't stop listening to it now. My favorite off the album will probably remain in California though. That song makes my skull explode
-
I probably attribute to at least 200 plays of this song.

I want to be Joanna Newsom when I grow up.

One of the most peaceful melodies I've ever heard. Joanna is just what I needed today.
First of her songs I heard- and still my favorite. It's so powerful and beautiful and sad, it makes me want to implode. In a good way.

I listen to it and find the melodic lines so moving!
The sequence from 0:00 to 1:25 is unstoppable and I have found myself unable to progress past this part - skipping back to the beginning and listening VERY carefully.
Listen to the way she comes in slightly early on "Even the ghosts" and the way she sings the first word.
She should have cut out the middle section and just looped the initial melody line.
The way she sings "Would I could tie your lying tongue" - just unbelievable
