Just saw her at the Largo in L.A. last night. The night before she was at the Hollywood Bowl with Peter Gabriel. She was perfect and very nice to us all. In person her voice is perfect. There were only about 60 of us and she took the time to thank us all and sign for us. She is as sweet and sincere as they come. I wish all could see her sing, it is a treat I would do it again in a heart beat.

Frankly, I met this singer Ane Brun through Radio Paradise. And I liked the work. Now we have to admit that this type of singers, are long forgotten in attendance with running here, compared to other artists "easier" and "fads" running all the time.

Sometimes listeners are led to think that good music "is saved" here, and serves to "Puch" to other music and bands of the second plan, or artists who are starting up."

Nice call on the tuba. I didn't really key in on that until reading your comment. Creative, but song didn't do much for me.

I love this album... Mine has a different cover though? 
  "Little Lights" is my absolute favorite... and one of my favorite songs of the last few years, and her duet with Ron Sexsmith "Song Number 6" is an amazing song first time I heard it on a CMJ sampler, I thought  1. Ane was Black 2. that she was doing a Billie Holiday rip. 

edit  Mine is a very early import edition. Tragically  "Little Lights" was moved to the Duets album... but you can check it out on Youtube.

One great tune on the iPod Shuffle on the slow parts of a good 10 mile run ... I hit the Replay Button a couple of times.

Totally mesmerising melodic riff - plus a voice to die for.
Why did I pass over the chance to see her live earlier this year??

Love the tuba and the triangle. Not so much the vocals or the flat melody.

Bought this album based om my absolute love of her song on the Koop album, but I was sadly dissapointed. I couldn't even make it through the obligatory three listenings before giving up. I found it very flat and boring, not very dynamic.

She still gets points for her vocal on Koop Island Blues though...

This album is truly magnificent. As for this song, I'd mix it with some Tanya Donelly.

double E flat Sousaphone most likely.

Very nice. European rotary valves, etc.

Nope, I misspoke just like Nixon used to do all the time.

Upright Kohn Silver Bell Tuba, E flat tuned; piston valves.

Yes, Tubalicious indeed.
