i hear she's like a real-life elf, so it can't be worse than a 7.3 on pfork...!

Hahahaha!

*spills coffee on keyboard*

BTW, I meant to say 'I have not actually heard it', but I did read pretty strong reactions of distaste by certain people on the net.

Specifically this thread comes to mind.

Re: joanna newsom - ys
yeah, i'm always down with anti-"finally some good real music" arguments, but maybe not from this website...

"So you lot can listen to scrawny norwegians squeel and cackle about goats, but you can't take a bit of the newsom?"

hahaha

that voice is both unnerving and intriguing. i can't listen to it everyday, but i think it has pretty unique feeling to it...

I am actually surprised how many people in that site have given the record a listen to begin with. It has gotten more attention than here in any case.

I have this feeling she peaked with 'The Book of Right On'.

Although I remember a track from...2003 on Magnatune (I 'tink?) in which she didn't seem nearly as eccentric.

Indeed, she gets a 9.4 there
Seems an interesting mix of classical and indie introspection, but musically not really my cup of tea, i don't think. Though i did dig the new age stylings of electroharpist Andreas Vollenweider (sp?) that my dad used to play in the car when i was a kid!
