Has Neko ever done anything that wasn't utterly terrific.
I'm beginning to wonder.
She has the amazing ability to sound like a throwback and brand new all at once.

Passion is generally good even if you are passionately against something.  Chances are if it gets to you that much then it reaches someone else just as much only in a positive way.  I think her distinctive voice carries her passion beautifully in her songs and that is why I like them.  Before being to scathing of a particular voice think where the world would be if nobody sat down to listen to the Bob Dylans, Leonard Cohens, Billy Braggs etc of this world.  I know I would be a less complete individual.

I initially quite liked the songs I heard from her here on RP. By now that foghorn of a voice has really gotten to me. She doesn't seem to be able to convey any other message than "ships, don't come close to shore". Then again, who thought Florence's voice could be topped.

I guess that singing through your butt with your nose clogged with mucus will just turn some people off. =)

If only she was standing on top of the van as the plane flew by, maybe we would not have to hear this song again. She would have at least got to hear her last deep red bells as the ambulance showed up... =S

Haunting song, written about the Green River killer.

"When speckled fronds raise round your bones
"Who took the time to fold your clothes?
"Who shook the Valley of the Shadow?"

...

"Where does this mean world cast its cold eye?
"Who's left to suffer long about you?
"Does your soul cast about like an old paper bag
"Past empty lots and early graves?
"For those like you who lost their way,
"Murdered on the interstate,
"While the red bells rang like thunder."

Really? I used to listen about 8-10 hours a day, during work.  I don't anymore, I got myself a Nano!  This one has been out now for a few years.  Also, I own copies of CDs for a great deal of the music played here.  I like hearing stuff I have not heard before.  I know it's a very tough balance RP has to strike.  I think they do a great job.  I am just whining I suppose, but I think it is good to give RP feedback, which I think they take into account.  Sometimes I get a little cranky and sarcastic (I'm working on it!!).

HATE Neko Case. The song makes me feel sick. It's the only artist RP plays that makes me turn off my music.

As of this morning, it's listed as 5 plays in 30 days. Not heavy enough, I'd say.

Agreed.  Sadly, there are all too many other songs on RP in this same boat.  I wonder if Bill monitors his server's listener tune-out reports.

Wow. And from the "Fire bad, tree pretty" ilk, I only got that her voice had no nuance - only power. I still can't listen to this song with headphones (now that I've found the headphone jack and can listen without waking up the neighborhood which consists of shift-workers for various gold mines) - it's too impassioned.  It doesn't mean I don't get her message - it's just that sometimes, I need to be spoon-fed, and Neko Case doesn't do that.

Thank you, Businessgypsy.  I love Neko Case, but now I love her even more. (And I remember the Green River Killer - just never thought it would impact me, because I was in a tucked-in space in Keizer...)  I guess this is a testament to why most of America is complacent and apathetic - violence happens to everyone else.

I better shut up now.  

 

I miss you so much, Ann...

rest in peace...

The new RP feature that tells the # of plays in the past month says today that the # for this song is 8.  I agree, that's way too much.   I don't think any song should be in the rotation that much, except a new or recent release.  Bill G has written on these pages that there is no rotation involved, strictly speaking, and I trust him on that.  It's just I am not sure what other term applies here.
