This woman is the pinnacle of folk music and there's no other way you can prove me otherwise. Greatest female musician of our generation, and probably, of all time.

more like the pinnacle in my dick

stop sexualizing her
>>64138960
she ain't no pop artist. what the hell are you trying to say?
>>64138912
lol she did voice acting for anime
>>64139029
she sexualizes herself the naughty slut
i love joanna but you need to widen your musical spectrum, there's more music than /mu/core out there
how can one woman be so pretty?
>>64139029
>stop sexualizing her
this. she's a real artist who's worked hard on her music, she deserves some respect.
(no, I'm not a feminist, and yes, I know how ridiculous it is to say this on 4chan)
>>64139029
What`s wrong with that?
also, she is pretty much a pop artist.
>>64139029
Her music is preserved through recordings. Folk music is preserved through oral transmission.
She should not sing though.
>>64139108
What if we respect that and still want to sexualize her?
>>64139071
she's gold, dude. And I don't even listen that much to /mu/core, but I really think she's one of a kind.
>>64139108
this
>>64139128
traditional music is preserved through oral transmission. folk music is more of an umbrella term... it's about the sound, not the background. what would you call artists like Simon and Garfunkel, then? it's the way I see it at least.
>>64139141
it's okay. don't let her find out :)
>>64139131
Her voice is damn cringe, I tried very hard to go through her voice, but sorry, I can't.
I can't understand how one does not find her voice appealing. So unique and tender
>>64139197
>what would you call artists like Simon and Garfunkel, then?
Folk rock
>>64139282
>folk rock
>folk
but how can it be folk if it's not orally transmited music? (following the logic of the guy I replied to)
>>64139279
it's a meme
or at least i'm pretty certain it is
my suspension of disbelief doesn't quite go far enough to believe that any of you guys unironically find her voice jarring or uncomfortable to listen to
To be really, really but really honest with all the people in this threat I tried a lot of times to listen her. my problem is not the voice,who she is, etc. I think she works hard in music but he is not creative, her ideas are really meh and his melodies are boring tho. I think she is moderately famous because she is sexy and every fan of he will fuck her, not her "talent".
>>64139332
not that guy but its pretty obvius.
>>64139376
well you're wrong
>>64139108
you sound like you're 14
>>64139197
I'd like to give Joanna an oral transmission
>>64139600
yeah because saying "UGHH I WANT TO FUCK HER IN THE ASS HEHE" makes you sound like you're a grown up
>>64139623
>>64139600
Afrika Bambaataa, pls.

>>64139708
i don't like joanna newsom
one of the most significant reasons why i don't like joanna newsom is because her voice is as plain and conventional as it is
hence my disbelief
>>64138912
Saw her in Vancouver couple weeks ago. Was tops. Live rendition of Peach, Plum, Pear is incomparable.
>>64139654
You sound like you're 14 because you feel like you have to clarify that you aren't a feminist. Anyone who doesn't self-describe as a feminist is either a literal child or a man-child
>>64139862
this
>>64139862
You deserve to die.
Godammit fuck this whole thread.
I love Joanna's music but stop saying stupid uninformed shit like that. I do think she's one of the best musicians of this generation, but saying it so hyperbolically like you did will always look stupid, because it is.
And to get to the other autist, OP was very obviously referring to Contemporary Folk music. Stop trying to pretend like genres and words don't change and develop over time. Not to mention that Joanna herself actually is heavily rooted in traditional material and there certainly is part of a traceable lineage back to traditional. But that's beyond the point because if you were such a pedantic asshole there wouldn't be a problem here.
>>64140025
*and certainly is part of a traceable lineage back to traditional folk
*weren't such a...
>>64139862
This is actually correct but a lot of people on this board (i.e. manchildren and /pol/tards) will think that it's bait because they are completely uneducated.
>>64140003
Holy shit, kill yourself. You don't have to hate men to consider yourself a feminist, all it means is that you support equal rights for both genders. Nobody's asking you to parade around announcing to everyone that you are a feminist.
>>64139862
>>64140082
You are aware modern feminism is a joke to most normal people, yes?
definitely a top tier lyricist, her writing is probably better than her harping and singing (though both of them are great too, of course)
>>64140241
they don't. I blame the jews
(?
>>64140325
you sound like a 14 year old
>>64140241
Radical feminism is a joke to any sane person, but I won't refuse to support equal rights for both genders just because a small minority is retarded.
>>64140325
nice shitpost commoner
Why can't we all just get along and appreciate Joanna's music?
>>64140370
>Most normal people = my alt-right communities on the internet!
>>64140397
>modern feminism = radical feminism
>>64139376
her music is overwhelmingly creative. she sings in a very appealing and very unique way, her harmony is on another level compared to other recording artists, and her lyrics flow very musically despite being literary most significantly though, is her crazy free-form approach to composing huge songs.
>>64140516
Why do you think the way she sings is appealing? It's distracting and gimmicky to me.
>>64140397
nowadays feminism means radical feminism. if we are going to get technical, what you support is egalitarianism
>>64140397
There are no more gender "issues" to be fixed. Feminism of the nowaday is retarded bullshit. Please get off reddit and go outside.
>>64140459
Her music isn't worth discussing.
>>64139773
what about the Clancys?
>>64140540
because i enjoy a voice that explores the realm of timbre. i think this is the essence of all good singing, and joanna happens to be one of the few recording artists who has grasped this.
>>64140494
wait wait, do you think most people consider themselves feminists? lmao this is too good
>>64140570
>Her music isn't worth discussing
Then what are you doing in this thread? Are you really that pathetic that you can't control the urge to shitpost?
>>64140626
yeah I actually go outside and interact with people.
>>64140570
>there are no more gender issues to be fixed
said the cis male
>>64140706
you're a funny dude
what's up funny dude
>>64140570
step outside of the room of your existence and acknowledge that rural and poor areas objectively do have gender issues and that all mainstream art and media and culture propagates stereotypes about women and even men that hurt men and women on a psychological level. you either don't care (unlikely) or you have failed to notice the ways in which your peers have been degraded by their culture's gender constructions.
>>64140459
We can. What's her favorite song and album?
>Cosmia
>The Milk-Eyed Mender
>>64140756
nothing much, listening to music, you?
>>64140768
tip tip
>>64140787
>Sawdust & Diamonds
>HOOM
Anecdotes is rising up the rankings quickly though, it's an incredible tune. The back half of it starting with "rushing, tearing, speeding home..." is fucking majestic with the winding strings.
>>64140787
Favorite song is Good Intentions Paving Company.
Favorite album might actually be Divers, with Ys a very close second.
What's your guys favorite Joanna live performance? Would have to be either Have One On Me on Austin City Limits or this version of Sawdust
Her voice on that version of HOOM is at its pinnacle

>>64141349
Have you seen Inherent Vice?
Or if you browse this board on a regular basis you've probably seen it.

Pop influenced by folk. Also, garbage.
>>64139347
It's hideous, almost as insufferable/obnoxious as Bjork's voice. It makes me want to punch someone in the face.
IN CAAAAAALLLIIIIIIOOOOOOOOOOOOONNIIAAAAAAA YOU CROSS THE BORDERS OF MY HEART
I'm just gonna leave this here...
>>64140787
>cosmia
>ys
haven't listend to divers yet tho
>>64141419
>Inherent Vice
ohhhhhhhhh yeah! the narrator lady! had no clue she made music. how do i into her??
>>64141637
This talentless faggot actually tainted my opinion of her
>>64141756
Listen to Divers, if you like it then listen to Ys and HOOM. If you already like progressive and kinda inaccessible music you can start with Ys.
>listening to folk
>calling it music
fucking hipsters, kys
>>64138912
but that's not esme patterson.
>>64141782
Listen to Ys over and over until you feel ready to move on and then do Have One On Me.
They're both perfect records. Make sure to carve out time to actually listen though and not just put it on as background music as the lyrics are essential
>>64141637
I guess talent is going to skip the next few generations in their eventual family.
>>64141782
>>64141867
ok, i'll give it a shot. not too familiar with the genre, but i did stumble upon "I Thought I Was An Alien" by Soko and ended up liking it, so i'm slightly hip. gonna go fire up my beats™ headphones right now : ^)
>>64142716
I wouldn't say she subscribes to any genre really. It's music you really need to sink your teeth into however. Some people love it right away others take time to appreciate it. I will say that if you dislike her voice on Emily, the first song off of Ys, just skip straight to her next album Have One On Me. Her voice is a lot warmer on that album and I've converted a few doubters by pushing them to give that album a chance.
>>64143071
ok, i see what you mean now. just saw the divers video - her voice is definitely more "acquired taste" than "crowd favorite" - but as an outsider, i'm not really one to judge. her flavor is very strong and bold, and i'm honestly only familiar with a more sonically refined sound, fever ray for example:

The existence of Joni Mitchell leads me to believe otherwise OP.
