In the last 48hours, a friend of mine inadvertily linked me to this video performance of Joanna Newsom, whom I've never heard of before. Now that I do, I'm pretty much getting my hands on everything Joanna Newsom.
This particular song, the sound, her voice, the lyrics, and most importantly they way she performs it; her facial expression, her visible pain, just breaks my heart into infinite pieces.
