i heard about joanna because i love brooklyn nine-nine and, in turn, andy samberg, but man do i wish i'd heard of her through something or someone other than her husband. i've just been spending the majority of the day discovering her music and her style and her lyrics and i can't say i understand any of it just yet but holy shit is it exquisite. unlike anything i've ever heard before. her voice is so strange yet so undeniable and i've just found myself gravitating toward it the whole day. my ears are so confused but i don't want to stop listening, not even for one second. it's unbelievable. i'm completely blown away.
I'm with you, Manasa. I only discovered her by chance, a half-hour or so ago. Pure talent is a rare power. Expression of that purity leaves one vulnerable, and self-awareness of that vulnerability can lead to self-consciousness, which dilutes that purity, or at least impedes its flow. That doesn't exactly express what I mean, but when speaking of art, words can only get you so close.
I found out who Andy Sandberg was because of her.... I was lucky to find her from a friend over a decade ago and when I was a teenager... The one that stands out to me most is the book of right on.
When I saw her in Boston she played at the Orpheum…so there were assigned seats. If you ever get the chance to see her live, take it. I’d stand stuck in a muddy field for 10 hours to see this goddess perform if I had to.
On the flip side, when I saw her at the Orpheum and it was seated, I couldn't stop bouncing my knee from the energy and emotion and I guess it was kind of annoying to my comrades. :/
Just found this incredible lady on" Later With Jools Holland" UK TV.The last time that I heard such talent as this was in 1978,the "The Kick Inside" LP. Kate Bush.
My mom took me to see her before I had ever listened to her and I was so blown away, so amazing! So talented. Then she took me a second time and I cried the whole way through. If you get the chance to see her live, do whatever you have to do to see her.
her little smile at 8:46 makes me so happy, its like u can see that she feels it coming together there, its so wholesome :) like yes joanna ur doing amazing
i love at 9:24 when she goes "RAH!" haha. amazing. playing the exquisite harp parts she wrote herself while singing so wonderfully.. she's an american treasure, to be sure.
+beachsquint I think she repeats the very first word of the song, "From the courtyard..." with an emphasis on "From"...but it sure does sound like "RAH!", and that's way cool :-) I agree she's a treasure. Cheers!
I'm continually impressed that people are able to play an instrument and sing at the same time. I can't even play an old Blink 182 song of nothing but power chords and sing too.
Her music and style are in a cryptic code which, on first listen, sounded impenetrable to me. However, I persevered and was rewarded with the most exquisite musical world I've ever experienced! My attitude towards music changed after discovering her and I found myself gravitating towards more lengthy, complex arrangements and shunning the "3 minute pop" format forever. She's unique!
Such a great talent. Ive been a loose fan of her for 3 or 4 years and she never fails to impress me. Im a guitar player, but i want to learn the harp so bad. She plays it as a master would. Im so envious. And her voice. A treasure of infinite light.
I wouldn't say she's stopped making music, she became a mother for the first time a few years ago and if you listen to her lyrics motherhood is something that she has wanted for a very long time. I think when her daughter gets a little older she may return to music. She did a US tour shortly before Covid started and said at one of her shows that she has written a couple new songs
Like the first light of dawn, this music opens your eyes to new promises and to all the wonders of nature. Evocative of powers beyond observation, Joanna's music pull the strings of the heart, attract nostalgia and awaken the loves, the skinned lives and torpor of the sleeping watchmen..
I often think of how I got to know about her in a very small window in my life when I was in job training. A guy who I met and hang out with for two weeks only gave me like 5 song recommendations of artists/bands he thought were unique and uncommon. One of them was Joanna Newsom's "Emily". This happened in 2010 and Have One On Me was the newest record she had so I went and got it. "Easy" is a really good song but it wasn't until I heard "Have One On Me" when I got absolutely charmed and knew I would listen to her music forever.
Lyrics: From the courtyard, I floated in And watched it go down Heard the cup drop Thought, "Well That's why they keep them around" The blackguard sat hard Down with no head on him now And I felt so bad 'Cause I didn't know how to feel bad enough To make him proud By the time you read this I will be so far away Daddy longlegs, how in the world Am I to be expected to stay? In the night In the night, you may hear me call Pa, stay your hand And steel your resolve Stay where you are So long and tall Here's Lola, ta da To do her famous Spider Dance for you Lighten up your pockets Shake her skirts and scatter there A shrieking, six-legged millionaire with a blight in his sockets Miss Montez The Countess of Lansfeld Appealed to the King of Bavaria Saying, "Pretty papa If you are my friend Mister daddy longlegs, they are at it again Can I see you?" Poor Lola, a tarantula's mounting Countess Lansfeld's Handsome brassiere While they all cheer And the old king fell from grace While Lola fled To save face and her career You caught a fly, floating by Wait for him to drown in the dust Drown in the dust of other flies Whereby the machine is run And the deed is done Heaven has no word For the way you and your friends have treated poor Louis May God save your poor soul, Lola (But there is nothing I adore Apart from that whore's black heart) Well, doesn't that just beat all Miss Gilbert Called to Castlemaine By the silver dollar and the gold glitter Well, I've seen lots But never, in a million years Would think to see you, here Though the long road Begins and ends with you I cannot seem to make amends With you, Louis When we go out They're bound to see you with me At night, I walk in the park With a whip Between the lines Of the whispering Jesuits Who are poisoning you against me There's a big black spider Hanging over my door Can't go anywhere, anymore Tell me, are you with me? I called to you, several times While the change took place And then arrived, all night And I died But all these songs When you and I are long gone Will carry on Mud in your eye You asked my hand Hired a band "In your heart is all that you need Ask and you will receive" it is said I threw my bouquet And I knocked 'em dead Bottle of white, bottle of red Helpless as a child When you held me in your arms And I knew that no other Could ever love me as you loved Love me as you loved But help me, I'm leaving I remember everything Down to the sound of you shaving The scrape of your razor The dully-abrading black hair That remained When you clutched at me That night I came upstairs, half-dead And, in your kindness You put me straightaway In the cupboard With a bottle of champagne And then, later, on a train It was dark out, I was half-dead I saw a star fall into the sky Like a chunk of thrown coal As if God himself spat Like a cornered rat I really want you to do this for me Will you have one on me? It was dark, I was drunk and half-dead And we slept, knocking heads Sitting up in the star-smoking air Knocking heads like buoys Don't you worry for me Will you have one on me? Meanwhile, I will raise my own glass To how you made me fast And expendable And I will drink to your excellent health And your cruelty Will you have one on me? Helpless as a child When you held me in your arms And I knew that no other Could ever love me From the courtyard, I floated in And I watched it go down Heard the cup drop Thought, "Well, that's why They keep them around" The blackguard sat hard, down With no head on him now And I felt so bad 'Cause I didn't know how To feel bad enough To make him proud Well daddy longlegs, are you? Daddy longlegs, are you? Daddy longlegs, are you proud?
If i was in charge, i would make every citizen pay an extra dollar in taxes to get Joanna everything she fckn asks for. That woman is a gift from heaven and needs to be protected at all costs
@@xxjcd702 I read that although she really loves Kate Bush's work, she didn't actually listen to her until she heard people comparing her work to Bush's.
"i felt so bad, cause i didn't know how to feel bad enough" - one of the greatest lyrics.
Yes!!
You forgot the gut punch: "to make you proud." But yes, it is stunning.
Profound.

lol
@Manasa Valluru that's exactly how it was with me and now I can't stop listening. She's just so incredible and captivating
I'm with you, Manasa. I only discovered her by chance, a half-hour or so ago. Pure talent is a rare power. Expression of that purity leaves one vulnerable, and self-awareness of that vulnerability can lead to self-consciousness, which dilutes that purity, or at least impedes its flow.

Wait when was she in Brooklyn 99
I can't imagine seeing her in concert and having to stand. My knees would just give out bc of how much emotion she brings out of me.
I'd like to just close my eyes and get blanketed by her songs/voice
When I saw her in Boston she played at the Orpheum…so there were assigned seats. If you ever get the chance to see her live, take it. I’d stand stuck in a muddy field for 10 hours to see this goddess perform if I had to.
Same

that ad right at the end is a hate crime
I think she’s the most exciting artist of the last 30 years. What a voice, what a poet, what a badass!
Leonard Cohen: my songs take forever
Joanna: hold my Harp
Just found this incredible lady on" Later With Jools Holland" UK TV.The last time that I heard such talent as this was in 1978,the "The Kick Inside" LP. Kate Bush.
She’s a much better lyricist than Kate Bush tho. I love KB, one of my favs of all time
Wonderful album. "Moving" reminds me most of JN.
I LOVE HER. SHES LIKE A FAIRY QUEEN. Been listening to Sprout and the Bean since I was 6, and every album is amazing
Ginger Taylor queen of the faes, beautiful music
My mom took me to see her before I had ever listened to her and I was so blown away, so amazing! So talented. Then she took me a second time and I cried the whole way through. If you get the chance to see her live, do whatever you have to do to see her.

Dude, I said the same thing
yo, mad props those violinists. Its not easy to be subtle and keep changing time while playing perfectly
That lady shredding on the violin really just makes my day.
i love at 9:24 when she goes "RAH!" haha. amazing. playing the exquisite harp parts she wrote herself while singing so wonderfully.. she's an american treasure, to be sure.

she says "from" but was almost totally out of breath
"from the courtyard" she says, but she says from with emphasis and little breath so the f and m are subtle.
ice spice
oh my god when she picks up the rhythm at 0:50
no other music makes me so sad, yet i can’t stop listening to her.
5:56 on is pure perfection
She's like a female Mozart writing 10 minute of uniquely beautiful songs!
I'm continually impressed that people are able to play an instrument and sing at the same time. I can't even play an old Blink 182 song of nothing but power chords and sing too.
WHO could EVER dislike this???!
Monsters. Thats who!
Taylor Swift fans
@@008Invisibleman excuse me bestie but i stan joanna and taylor-

You should learn the harp.
@@SoyBioIogia you know what......
......I think I might!🙂 Thank you for your message, kind stranger.
First got hooked on her music in 2011. Wish she still made music, what an absolutely astounding artist, musician and composer
I feel you
I wouldn't say she's stopped making music, she became a mother for the first time a few years ago and if you listen to her lyrics motherhood is something that she has wanted for a very long time. I think when her daughter gets a little older she may return to music. She did a US tour shortly before Covid started and said at one of her shows that she has written a couple new songs
there are five new songs on youtube from her surprise show with fleet foxes earlier this year!
This shit is so fucking brilliant it makes me sob

I love the staccato in this, great stylistic choice! Keeping it interesting
1:00 how can she play that and sing at the same time…. Absolutely amazing talent
This performance is so beautiful
this is perfection. goes straight to my heart and makes everything ok.
Lyrics:
From the courtyard, I floated in
And watched it go down
Heard the cup drop
Thought, "Well
That's why they keep them around"
The blackguard sat hard
Down with no head on him now
And I felt so bad
'Cause I didn't know how to feel bad enough
To make him proud
By the time you read this
I will be so far away
Daddy longlegs, how in the world
Am I to be expected to stay?
In the night
In the night, you may hear me call
Pa, stay your hand
And steel your resolve
Stay where you are
So long and tall
Here's Lola, ta da
To do her famous Spider Dance for you
Lighten up your pockets
Shake her skirts and scatter there
A shrieking, six-legged millionaire with a blight in his sockets
Miss Montez
The Countess of Lansfeld
Appealed to the King of Bavaria
Saying, "Pretty papa
If you are my friend
Mister daddy longlegs, they are at it again
Can I see you?"
Poor Lola, a tarantula's mounting
Countess Lansfeld's
Handsome brassiere
While they all cheer
And the old king fell from grace
While Lola fled
To save face and her career
You caught a fly, floating by
Wait for him to drown in the dust
Drown in the dust of other flies
Whereby the machine is run
And the deed is done
Heaven has no word
For the way you and your friends have treated poor Louis
May God save your poor soul, Lola
(But there is nothing I adore
Apart from that whore's black heart)
Well, doesn't that just beat all
Miss Gilbert
Called to Castlemaine
By the silver dollar and the gold glitter
Well, I've seen lots
But never, in a million years
Would think to see you, here
Though the long road
Begins and ends with you
I cannot seem to make amends
With you, Louis
When we go out
They're bound to see you with me
At night, I walk in the park
With a whip
Between the lines
Of the whispering Jesuits
Who are poisoning you against me
There's a big black spider
Hanging over my door
Can't go anywhere, anymore
Tell me, are you with me?
I called to you, several times
While the change took place
And then arrived, all night
And I died
But all these songs
When you and I are long gone
Will carry on
Mud in your eye
You asked my hand
Hired a band
"In your heart is all that you need
Ask and you will receive" it is said
I threw my bouquet
And I knocked 'em dead
Bottle of white, bottle of red
Helpless as a child
When you held me in your arms
And I knew that no other
Could ever love me as you loved
Love me as you loved
But help me, I'm leaving
I remember everything
Down to the sound of you shaving
The scrape of your razor
The dully-abrading black hair
That remained
When you clutched at me
That night I came upstairs, half-dead
And, in your kindness
You put me straightaway
In the cupboard
With a bottle of champagne
And then, later, on a train
It was dark out, I was half-dead
I saw a star fall into the sky
Like a chunk of thrown coal
As if God himself spat
Like a cornered rat
I really want you to do this for me
Will you have one on me?
It was dark, I was drunk and half-dead
And we slept, knocking heads
Sitting up in the star-smoking air
Knocking heads like buoys
Don't you worry for me
Will you have one on me?
Meanwhile, I will raise my own glass
To how you made me fast
And expendable
And I will drink to your excellent health
And your cruelty
Will you have one on me?
Helpless as a child
When you held me in your arms
And I knew that no other
Could ever love me
From the courtyard, I floated in
And I watched it go down
Heard the cup drop
Thought, "Well, that's why
They keep them around"
The blackguard sat hard, down
With no head on him now
And I felt so bad
'Cause I didn't know how
To feel bad enough
To make him proud
Well daddy longlegs, are you?
Daddy longlegs, are you?
Daddy longlegs, are you proud?
😥😰she is so amazing
i can't get over this woman
Album (JOANNA NEWSOM Have One On Me) in my collection, vid in my favs. Thanks.
Listen to this when you're high af. You'll know what I'm talking about.
This album is a crazy adventure on shrooms. Highly recommend.
@@Frymononie going to be doing this very soon.
every time i listen to her when i'm high i just cry, not recommended
So therapeutic

I’m
Afraid of her music but like in a good way??
she is amazing!
Freaking amazing! Thank you for sharing this.
Oh, Lord, she is SO unique!
i would die for her
in that one shot, it looks like the trombone player isn't wearing pants, hubba hubba
How happy she looks at 8:46 makes me happy
Wow!
Also her lyrics ate witty and intelligent. Not just the same ole b. S.
Thank you so much for this , it absolutely amazing 🌟
Wow...
If i was in charge, i would make every citizen pay an extra dollar in taxes to get Joanna everything she fckn asks for. That woman is a gift from heaven and needs to be protected at all costs
How the F can a person sing flawlessly like that while playing a HARP?
With enough practice of any instrument your fingers play the sounds you want them to automatically and then you focus on singing.
Joanna Newsom - Have One On Me (Live ACL)
She is the best kind of freak ♡♡♡
can we have this in HD?
Damn cuh they got an ad right there in the song
It's like Dave Matthews mix with classic folk music
Do you have the original resolution version?
please come to ohio.
Epic
She's amazing! If Frank Zappa and Joni Mitchell had a Harp playing child, see would be it.
Where does she get her songs? Really, where....
khalessi
Can you name one person she's like?
Vocals are similarly eccentric to Björk and Kate Bush
@@xxjcd702 I read that although she really loves Kate Bush's work, she didn't actually listen to her until she heard people comparing her work to Bush's.
People like Taylor Swift instead....I wish intelligence was popular again.
What's with the comparison?? It's so unnecessary
shades of Kate Bush
Sounds like Kate Bush, but I think her music is much, much more interesting.
She has a bizarre voice.
In a good way?
I wish her well in recovering from the stroke that's affected her mouth and voice.
I want Andy Samberg ded! Deds I tells ya'!
Fuck off weirdo
people calling genius anne clark.. such a bunch of fools
wth does this mean
means that anne clark sucks

Trevin I know, right? stage name st. vincent.. i wouldn't waste my time checking her out though
@@johnentwistle952 oh, thats Annie Clark, not Anne. I think shes a pretty great guitarist
No accent when she speaks over does a bad one mixed with baby talk when she sings.... it’s like comedy skit by accident
