held up like a douche by the foreman of the night

I have a new musical crush: Joanna Newsom. She plays the harp, yo. And sounds like Bjork, at the age of 8, on large quantities of LSD. As the Engineer said upon my discovery of this, "People like them make music like this only for people like you." Or something to that effect. I don't remember. I was too busy swaying in place.

He, Mister Kyle, and I were watching a disc of animated shorts and one of Newsom's songs, Peach Plum Pear played over the end credits of one of them (City Paradise). Enthralled is not even the word.

All of that being said, I massively misheard one of the lyrics.

I thought it was saying:
And I am blue
I am blue and unwell
Made me bold like a whore

But, in ACTUALITY, it's saying:
And I am blue
I am blue and unwell
Made me bolt like a horse

Hrrm.

I like my version better.

Oh awesome, I love her too. You have Milk Eyed Mender and Ys? If you like her, and are good with weirdish music, check out CocoRosie.

I don't have Milk Eyed Mender or Ys, but have them on my Amazon wishlist in the hopes one of my friends get them for me for the holidays. If not, I'm buying them my damn self! :D

What's CocoRosie like?
