I first heard Bridges and Balloons on a college radio station shortly after it was released. I had forgotten any lyrics to search for but the sound of it haunted me for years, slowly vanishing into a memory of what may have been only a dream, until one day I happened upon Sprout and the Bean and recognized her voice. I cannot describe the joy of finally discovering the magical voice from the radio memory.
Theres an interview with nardwar where he tells her she never sweared on a song, and she stopped and thought for a second, and then said that maybe a combination of words to replace the one word could convey more emotion. My theory is that maybe she wrote that line on purpose after that intervierw haha
I just wanted to add my 2 cents about something that I never see fans mention: this earlier version of En Gallop is SOOOOOOOOO much better than the one on Milk Eyed Mender. It's so raw and so god damned perfect it brings tears to my eyes. That is all.
Dang it…. I really wanted to sink into this, UA-cam won’t let me watch and listen. For me, all I get is an endless white screen-like a snow storm-and an occasional sound of the harp. There’s no play or pause or anything. Just white, forever and ever. Obviously something’s wrong with my end. I’ll come back another day and see. Until then I’ll be lining my pocket with a scrap of sassafras, eh Sisyphus? 🐇
Never understood why these started being referred to as EPs. I don't think Joanna even thinks of them as EPs---they're kinda just self-released demos. Plus Walnut Whales contains more tracks and a longer running time than most official definitions of an EP (definitions vary but the most lenient is 5 tracks and 30 min max; Walnut Whales is at 8 tracks and 36 minutes). I guess it's not that important at the end of the day, just splitting hairs. Either way they're both gems anyway, thanks for the upload.
coming back to Joanna's music is like coming home.. it feels inevitable and yet it's never quite the same as the time before
you can ask the counsellor and you can ask the king, and they'll say the same thing
I started listening to Joanna when I was 5. I swear I can map my life through her music

This version of En Gallop destroyed and rebuilt my lil heart a thousand times
Her words are timeless. Her music will stand
I know this is so childish but hearing Joanna say bitch is so funny
i read your comment before i listened and i STILL nearly fell out of my chair

Love u so much, Joanna Newsom
Awesome! ❤
I met her once, we talked for about 30 minutes and I was astonished at how frequently and carelessly she uses the Nword, like its 1820
were you speaking to her in human or was she speaking to you in dog?
god made her perfect i always knew it

I know this has nothing to do with your post but may you ever be limited and uncolonized!
Yay
Flying a kite > breaking bread
Flying a Kite is one of the most beautiful songs from her early work; I can't believe it didn't get included on a proper album
@@wronglever8130 Just a guess, but I think she may have been trying to avoid these comparisons: ua-cam.com/video/i42YBkfRmiQ/v-deo.html
@@zachhocking9053 I'm gonna have to say there's about a 0.01% chance of that
her voice x the old voice that is.
Did she really say bitch in this version of En Gallop?
right? i think so, i always thought it was a joke.
Noone talking about how dirt nasty and wretched the organ version of peach plum pear is.......
if all those descriptors are expressing a positive response to the rawer emotionality of this version, AMEN
Blue and unwell
