Well, it appears that this album (and by extension this song as it's best track) indeed will go down as the peak of her creative output... I had such high hopes for her return, but it doesn't hold a candle to this...

Sad. She had so much potential…

I always liked that lyric. It's true.

The sad thing is, I bet she has 'fans.': 2.

Haven't heard this in a long, long time. I'm really enjoying it too. I raise my glass to Fiona Apple. Anyone else want a drink?

this is what Tori Amos would be like if she was likeable...
and less depressing...

What a well-turned song! It's been in my Radio Paradise Favorites playlist almost since Day One and seems to improve with every hearing.

Yikes - for all the (mostly deserved) slagging Eddie Vedder takes here, this woman has all those faults and more - untrained, unrefined voice, goaty vibrato, no sense of interpretation. Yes, I know, everybody is supposed to love Fiona above all other indie queens, but I haven't drunk that particular kool-aid.

Don't forget to let us all know when your CD drops, okay?

Gosh, Procliviites, I dont' think anyone suggested they were superior, just of a different bent regarding this particular artist.

As for Kool-Aid flavours that I have imbibed, I confess to being under the influence of:
Leonard Lemon Cohen,

Warren Whiskey Zevon

Neil Sour Lime Young

Shane Guiness MacGowan
I guess we all have our favorite voices that may be classically trained!

I guess you're just eminently superior to everyone who disagrees with you. Which Kool-Aid did you drink? Since when are vocal training and refinement required in rock music, anyhow?

I'm totally addicted to her voice, velvety but feels like a scratch... I could listen to her all day long. Love it.
