This came up on my feed, I honestly thought "oh no... this cant be good". Well Sir, call me impressed. Beautiful sound, vocals, arrangement. After "only skin", "Emily" is my fave song, and Ive never heard anyone cover JN well. No one sounds like her... no one should try! But You did it your way and its excellent. Great job!
Dude... This is amazing! A true cover. One that both maintains the integrity of the original and brilliantly puts a little spin on it with a bit of a different feel. Bravo 👏
I wanted to tell you that the arrangement is sensational and brimming with full understanding of the original in its musical and lyrical sphere both and that is just so beautiful to me. And it's something that my limited voice can at least try to imitate. Thank you, dearly.
Whoa~ I am a huge fan of Joanna Newsom like everyone else on this comment section. Your rendition is really thought-provoking and heartwarming. I’ve never thought it could be covered by a male singer-pianist.
Thanks so much for the kind words. Glad the key works for you - I often find that I have to transpose Joanna Newsom songs in order to sing them comfortably. It's always a case of trial and error.
I can indeed! It's a Jewish antifascist shirt that depicts two characters from Jewish folklore, Ziz and Leviathan, tearing up a nazi flag. The text reads "mir veln zey iberlebn" which means "we will outlive them" in Yiddish. Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed the video :)

It reminds me the vibes of old "Antony and the Johnsons" (now Anohni). Very beautiful

Wow! This is an awesome cover. Emily is also one of my favorite songs from Joanna. And finally, a key in my range that I can comfortably sing.

I can indeed! It's a Jewish antifascist shirt that depicts two characters from Jewish folklore, Ziz and Leviathan, tearing up a nazi flag. The text reads "mir veln zey iberlebn" which means "we will outlive them" in Yiddish.
