What is the greatest song Joanna Newsom has ever written and why is it Emily?
What is the greatest song Joanna Newsom has ever written and why is it Emily?
I'm gonna go cliche and pick Baby Birch
That's a great one for sure. In California is her best from HOoM though, imo.
tru
her overall best is sawdust and diamonds, though
Only Skin, but the entirety of Ys is better than most other artists so
Imo, Go Long is the best song in her catalog
...
I like Bridges and Balloons.
Cosmia. specifically the version from the ys street band album
Shit music shit singer shit album
fake and gay
acceptable picks:
Only Skin
Sawdust and Diamonds
Cosmia
Emily
Divers
Leaving the City
'81
Go Long
Soft As Chalk
Sprout and the Bean
Swansea
because its a special song about her sis and because of the meteorite
>no Book of Right-On
...
>no inflammatory writ
all correct, she's a genius
mfw the child ovens finally make a truly genius songwriter and the fanbase is 95% men slobbering over her gorgeous ass
It's "Esme"
Emily is her best song because it invokes emotions regarding siblinghood that I've never felt in music before. The rest of her songs, while brilliant, mostly explore relatively familiar territory (relationship troubles and so forth).
>'81
I like it but no
Also
>no Sapokanikan
>no Baby Birch
>no In California
>no Have One on Me
>no Good Intentions Paving Company
i can't be the only one who thinks monkey & bear is her best right
right
It's probably her most underrated
>Oh the hills are groaning with excess
>Like a table ceaselessly being set
>Oh my darling we will get there yet
shes an industry plant but talented
this guy gets it
Sawdust and Diamonds. Hands down.
I would say Only Skin
>Leaving the City
>not Anecdotes
my fav used to be only skin but now emily is my fav
i cry at the "pa pointed out to me" part
my
fucking
nigga
count me in
Ys is a near perfect album
Only Skin is a perfect song
