I regret missing amanda's street concert sooooo much. i simply didn't know about it. my own fault. i enjoyed the concert at the academy so much and even met her afterwards. a surreal moment! her vocals are amazing in this one!
i guess so many people can relate to her. when my parents started talking about selling the house my mother's mother had built, i thought exactly the same thing, especially when it comes to the "buying the house again when i'm rich enough"-part.
I love and hate the house I grew up in. It was originally bought by my grandma in the 40's, and my dad was born in 1950 and grew up here and ran a business here. My mother hates it, wants to sell it. I can tell that dad is attatched but he will go along with it. I cried when Amanda played this in Manchester...a singular little tear. AFP I love your work!! x
The first time I heard this song from Amanda was when I saw her live in Carrboro, N.C., in spring 2009. I think it's my favorite Amanda Palmer song. It's sentimental and she's vulnerable and yet still a bit defiant. She's AfpMAZING.
My grandma and her partner built the house my mom and I grew up un, she was 12 when the moved into it and I grew up there. Now my mom's planning on selling it after a fire destroyed 1/3 of it and we're rebuilding it atm (she never liked it there, hates ne neighbors and also dislikes the city we're living in...) . I planned on moving back in (it has three apartments, so I wouldn't exactly move in with my mom again) in a couple of years time and raise my children there (if i'll ever have any kids), but now I think there's no way that's going to happen. Makes me kind of sad. I've already bought a little tree and planted in our huge ass garden so it'll be big enough to hang a swing on one of it's branches when I'm pregnant and stuff.
she looks really, really good in that hat.

"Are people walking by, looking at us strangely? Good."

She is the greatest!!

Now that Amanda has a million dollars, do you suppose she'll finally be able to buy the house back? That would be adorable in a twisted sort of way!
All of her is fantastic!

Yay! You were so close and the audio is great. :)

I want to meet her D:.
I know that is strange, but I find this so fucking inspiring that I'm going to play to the street right now, I guess.
That's how I felt when they auctioned my grandfather's worldly possessions - well, music.
awesome :)

Amanda's name 'she who must be loved'.
