Listen Closely

Amazing made up beats, musical interludes, and hidden sounds. Check it out. 
The ways she experiments, I cannot stress it enough. Just one of many. This one is beautiful


It's like forgetting the words to your favorite song.
You can't believe it; you were always singing along.
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can't remember; you try to feel the beat.

Eet eet eet.

You spend half of your life trying to fall behind.
You're using your headphones to drown out your mind.
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can't remember; you try to move your feet.

Someone's deciding whether or not to steal.
He opens a window just to feel the chill.
He hears that outside a small boy just started to cry
'Cause it's his turn, but his brother won't let him try.

It's like forgetting the words to your favorite song.
You can't believe it; you were always singing along.
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can't remember; you try to move your feet.
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can't remember; you try to feel the beat. (I love the T sounds mimicking cymbals at the end)

And here's a fun one!



Damn it's so cool how she just plays with sound. She could sing about anything we find mediocre and make it into a great melodic story. Her lyrics are so simple and odd- almost randomly grouped together (who knows? but i feel most artists create with purpose and her music is the same way, even if it is of very eclectic, eccentric, and acquired taste), yet the way she delivers them is amazing, she just makes it all work regardless of how odd at first. I've even googled her (hah one of my hobbies- I tend to google about everything I want to know about- I like to know things), and she says she just hears all this in her head. This endless flow of music- friggen amazing. Long ago when I first started this blog I pondered between the difference with being artistic and being creative. I would say she is truly an artist. Lady Gaga's got nothing on her.
It's her voice, the way she chooses to enunciate, the way she chooses to invent and create from all things (such as the versatility of maneuvering her vocals, tongue, and mouth). She creates such beauty we can hear and imagine, rather than for the much overrated and quite universal concept drawing from sight. And she's rather amazing on piano. You know me, a great pianist and I'm sold.
