My favorite song from her. It's from her first album. Damn, she's amazing. The such in depth lyrics and sounds she comes up with, everything, the multiple and striking beats, her play with sound combinations while mixing them with words. It's her piano, different sounds from a plethora of instruments, the way she creates these effects of motioning tempos of which rise and fall, sometimes simultaneously, and how she manages to just make it all work. Goddamn. And the sound of her voice and how she uses it intensely and extensively, softly or roughly, producing an effect of almost a story within a story. It's like she's acting out an extraordinary theatrical scene that you can picture in your mind, hoping that you will feel something so out of this world different from her unlimited flow of story and possibility. Of course she has more easy listening songs too, and don't get me wrong- those are so great too and of course always have her own twist that embodies her own style, but I especially love her more dramatic and dark toned songs. They're so moving; I love it. She makes me wish I should've been born of Russian descent.
