      I know. All the dead famous composers came back to visit Adrienne via astral travel in her sleep to actually learn thing or two about how music is REALLY supposed to sound. She’s the real music Messiah saving us all from the evils of 2020.

    She reminds me of my late wife in the 70's playing her custom dreadnought style 12 String. Bought a smile and tears, music is in good hands with young women like Adrianne Lenker. Peace Lass.

    One of her best works imho - it's engaging, rapturous, rhythmic and her guitar strumming feels almost vortex-like, pulling you in with some peculiarly compelling energy.

    [Verse]
    Fly make flea, make haste, make waste, eight makes infinity
    Times I've tried to make breaks, embrace for the enemy
    Meet my face to face, time try to find the diamond
    Counting time as time counts me, the river to the island
    [Chorus]
    Do you not, do you not tell?
    That smile always makes me well
    Do you see circling through?
    That's how one returns from two

    It looks as though that the top string and the two bottom strings are doubled up where as the 3 in the middle have only a single string = 9. I curious the inspiration for stringing up her 12 string like that. Such a cool hypnotic sound.

    • @rhubarb1073
      @rhubarb1073 7 місяців тому

      Sounds like the middle strings and the high strings are completely distinct, can hear them separately etc. I'd guess she wrote it on a 6, tried it on a 12, decided where she wants the doubled strings and where she doesn't to keep it more dynamic. Can def imagine this on a full 12 sounding much less dynamic. Either that or she just broke some of the doubled strings lmao. Just a guess tho !!!
