I couldn't be there the first time she ever played this so I'm so glad I could be there the second time hallelujah also the quality took an insane punch when I uploaded this
I love the part where it's all the arpeggios and then the pause and then back to the chorus and the crowd cheers. Electric. "We wait all night and count the thunder. There is no lightning, it is no wonder." I can't wait to hear the official recorded version of this.
The new album will be my first time coming to new Joanna Newsom AS a hardcore fan (I discovered her just after Divers came out) and I don't know what I'm going to do with myself. The last 8-9 yrs have been one steady process of falling deeply in love with her music. From what I've heard of the new songs, they're tremendous--absolutely true to her past work while still new. I'm so excited.
