her music is awesome. You don't find to many positive reveiws for her though.

She does sound like a disabled child

lol, i'd have to agree with that, especially with her older albums. Milk-eyed mender was pretty good, but i think she has more control over her voice on newer ones like Ys.

Wow, I'd always been a casual fan of Joanna Newsom but I did find her voice grating after too long but listening to her now it's amazing. The music is so atmospheric in a dark room with just headphones (and a computer) the mood it sets is beautiful, the strings and her otherworldly voice and the world she paints with imagery words is stunning. "Emily I saw you last night by the river / I dreamed you were skipping little stones across the surface of the water / Frowning at the angle where they were lost and slipped under forever / In a mud-cloud, mica-spangled, like the sky'd been breathing on a mirror / Anyhow I sat by your side by the water/ You taught me the names of the stars overhead that I wrote down in my ledger / Though all I knew of the rote universe were those Pleiads loosed in December / I promised you I‘d set them to verse so I'd always remember." Absolutely stunning.

incredible how someone who looks so pretty can sound so silly... I better not check out cocorosie pics, I guess.

I'd willingly shave my balls and wear a pink tutu for the rest of my life if I could receive a blowjob from that pulchritudinous mouth.
