Let's talk about the stylish and talented Canadian artist, the awesome Claire Elise Boucher known as Grimes.
David Byrne: >I started collecting pictures of Grimes, Madonna, Kate Bush, Sinèad O’Connor, on and on—popular musicians are obsessed with her. This trend inspired the premise for the show: a pop star decides to give in to the Joan obsession and tell her epic story in concert. brooklynvegan.com/david-byrne-details-his-upcoming-joan-of-arc-musical-tickets-on-sale/
anyone here visits the russian 2ch /grimes/? what are they like?
David Ramirez
Not too different than /grimes/. But they share way more pics and webms.
Brayden Campbell
>not too different
they are unabashed waifufags and never ever talk about her music, just about her quirky look.
also some guy drew her tattoos on his hand, put his dick in a hotdog bun, covered it in mayonnaise and wrote in the mayo "Love you Claire" and shared it.

they're just masturbating to her and posting their perverted thoughts basically like here on Sup Forums

Dylan Parker
>masturbating to Grimes
That is not sexy.
Camden Watson
They what?!
Daniel Phillips
I actually feel really bad for her. It probably sucks knowing that hundreds of guys jack off to still images of her. Then again, I'm a lesbian so you can guess what I'm doing in my free time when no one is watching.
Blake Hill
God I love when girls have thin, sculptured calves with slender ankles.
Brody King
>I'm a lesbian btw ;-P

> >>Plus, her music consists of tons of layered sounds that couldn't be described by mere music sheets. >Oh, It can be done (and even has - notice how the conductor in this video is working from a score - youtube.com/watch?v=6Se0hqGl94U ) Just with significant effort on the transcriptionist's part because of the complexity. That sort of thing can be fun, though - I've actually been considering doing transcriptions/arrangements for some of her songs as an exercise for quite some time now. Imo the song Devon in particular is just BEGGING to be transcribed/arranged in score form for Voice and Piano (or Harpsichord, if you're lucky enough to have it.) You could easily insert it into a set of Vaughan WIlliams/Dowland/Quilter English Art Songs in a voice recital, and I doubt even the crustiest of classical music elitists would bat an eye - because it fits perfectly.

It's nice to see Grimes becoming more and more inspiring for other artists.
Visions and Art Angels. They work every single time. They sound great to me no matter how many times I play them.
Hudson Gonzalez
Eminem show; that album ran on repeat when i was younger. meant the world to me.
Kevin Ross
very
Thomas Long
From Grimes, probably Darkbloom desu, despite how short it is. All the others are more mood-driven to me (which isn't to say that I can't just listen to and enjoy the others almost any time, any where - just that that's the one I go to when I can't decide.)
That, and this specific performance of Schubert's Death and the Maiden (which I have audio ripped to my music library, despite the low source quality.) Imo the tempos, intonation, and synchronicity are to die for.
Can honestly enjoy listening to either of these any time, no matter the situation.
Ha ha, that pie looks like it was made of plastic.
Jason Cook
what will her new album sound like?
Julian Edwards
Shit like all her other ones
Dylan Phillips
Like a more interesting Homogenic
Alexander Nguyen
REAL TRAP SHIT
Noah Davis

When is it comng out?
Julian Gray
I want you to be bad. You're such a sweet person and people take from you, often they'll take too much.
But I know you're hiding your true power. I know you're so much stronger than people realize.
I want you to hurt them back. Killing them softly, with this song.
Jayden Jenkins
I'm not sure i could do it softly.
Owen Cook
Has Grimes ever covered any Bork songs?
Zachary Flores
You're better than us. You are powerful. Don't let people hurt you, they're weak and it only hurts if you let them.
You don't have to be good all the time. People listen to power, we don't always listen to what's right.
Step proud. Aim for the Sky.
Nathaniel Smith
You're right, i am better than them! Now i know... Thank you. I just needed to hear it from you.
