    I always get annoyed when people say music isn't good anymore. It is great.
    It's just a shame this isn't whats popular. This is fucking fantastic.

    I listen to this almost everyday while I’m getting ready. Very Joni Mitchell-esque Beautiful melody. Beautiful lyrics. Beautiful voice from a beautiful lady.

      …and the headstock, even the _strap_ ! Her scrunch almost matches, but it's a bit dark.

      Summed up the modern "listener" of music perfectly - use eyes to appreciate music, not ears.

    • @michaelcurtin508

      Well this is a music video, right? So I’d imagine both eyes and ears were being used….

    Absolute GEM of a Tiny Desk. I listened to this having never heard of her or any of her associated acts. In the middle of her Karaoke song it is apparent that you are in the presence of an eccentric musical genius. She channels her emotional intelligence into something really beautiful.

  • @christ8200
    @christ8200 5 років тому +31

    It is indeed another Tiny Desk gem to be played over and over to find more loveliness each time through. Echoes of Joni, poignant lyrics, mesmerizing eyes and presence. Molly Sarle is one to follow, thank you.

    Man, I love songs that just tell stories in a super effortless, and thoughtful way. I may not be able to relate to the content but listening to honesty and feeling part of another person's journey for even a few minutes is really all the magic of music if you ask me.

    LOVE this - there are so few artists that can find a guitar (and strap) to match their eyes AND keep their eyes wide open when they sing!

    @baldkea 5 років тому +11

    I can understand why her band are all so completely focused and full of Aroha/love toward each song.
    Yeah, to my ear, there's a hint or tribute to Joni, both in quality of voice and song structure, but Molly and her band take it into a new, deeper, more personal realm.
    Listening to this performance, there was a couple of times I choked up and felt like I wanted to get down on my knees and weep about past loss.

  • @baldkea
    @baldkea 5 років тому +8

    Molly's voice has a unique quality (i.e. is totally different in tone and 'character' from any other singer I've heard. Even with the obvious comparison to Joni Mitchell, there's something completely special/different/unique going on which clearly differentiates her voice and songs into being extraordinary. Her voice caresses the ear and the lyrics, the brain :)

  • @sofiasoddu-smith5106

  • @flowersafeheart

    Anyone enjoying this, check out her music videos. They're super beautifully made and bring the songs to life. Actually that's often the case with great musicians! So awesome Molly is part of Mountain Man and sang back-up for Feist, love music and music videos by all those musicians.

  • @woebegone_kenobi
    @woebegone_kenobi 5 років тому +2

    This was well needed. I always felt that the other two in Mountain man usually over shadowed her. Not because she's a worse singer/artist, but just because how the energy was dispersed. So seeing her shine like this in all her glory was a treat. Thank you npr, thank you Molly
