Yeah. Her voice doesn't sound bad either...

c.

Neko makes me feel all squishy inside... she sure is purty

The lyrics and phrasing are phenomenal

Hey, I'd rather listen to Neko now too, because I've heard Dylan all my life, and I've only known about Neko for a couple of years...and of course there's her VOICE . But that doesn't mean I'm gonna countenance putting them on the same pedestal (yet) in terms of musical influence or importance. I bet Neko herself would agree.

Contrast this with the previous (Sheryl Crow) and you quickly understand why Neko is top of her class. Beautiful voice, awesome instrumentation, scorching lyrics. Outstanding.

My favorite album of hers...strong from start to finish. Has been in my car for months and isn't going anywhere any time soon.

I respect and appreciate what Dylan did for music, but I'd rather listen to Neko any day of the week.

I think Neko is very cool, but..."puts Dylan in his place"?? What nonsense is that? Let's see her transform American folk music, and then you can get back to me.

Puts Dylan in his place...the only world I find that fits her songs is ominous, but in a good way.

I gotta admit that both of them have a few songs that are too ye olde country sounding for me

THIS

man oh man yes

Neko Case is just pretty damn cool.

At a glimpse all positive comments As for almost all of Neko's songs I don't think I've seen as many in a row. And I luv her

How good it suits into a wonderful evening....

Shit. I already gave this a 10. Can I give it an 11? I'm working on photos of northern Nevada and it fits so perfectly. Put it on repeat, please.

I am very taken with her voice. I hear in it a kind of driving soulful energy that is curiously different than other fine women singers (the chirps for Cowboy Junkies and 10,000 Maniacs, for example); not better, just wonderfully different. Perhaps comparible to what I hear in the woman who sings the "Little God" song.

Ooh, yay

Wooooo-Hooooo!!! More Neko!

Great set Bill!

Neko Case - Things That Scare Me
Bob Dylan - Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues
Uncle Tupelo - Shaky Ground
Mike Montiel - After The Gunfight

Female Johnny Cash
mmm

Epic.

This album is awesome - the whole goddamn thing.

I like NC more every time I hear her. So by now, I like her quite a lot.

So what would Dylan to Neko be like? Dentist drill to orgasm maybe!

Sweet... That's a hat trick in my book:

Neko Case--Things that Scare Me
Sheryl Crow--Redemption Day
Calexico--Quattro (World drifts in)

dang...that voice gets me aroused and creeped out at the same time. I gots to get me some more Neko.

Nice "burn" indeed. One is vocally and lyrically limited , the other is limitless. Guess which one is which...
