Amanda Palmer goes Down Under

The vegemite song is a classic as ever, but her rendition of The Ship Song saddens me. It lacks the rhythm of the original. Nay, rhythm is not the right word. "Bad Wine and Lemon Cake", the duet with the Jane Austen Argument, is still soft and gentle. "Formidable Marinade" with is exquisitively cabaretesque.

random Amanda Palmer songs, featuring Tom Dickins (Jane Austen Argument) and Mikelangelo

sad because of the intense loneliness that blinks up in the fierce light

Words that swirl sombre and invitingly in a noctural way.

Jane Austen Argument - misc

* "Under The Rainbow" - sad, yet I don't like the wordless meanderings his voice picks up halfway through the song. Do really like the rest
* "Staying Single" - funny
* "Phoenix" - doesn't do much for me

another misc music (preparing for Amanda Palmer)

Ronald Jenkees - "Clutter" (Ronald Jenkees)
Instrumental, slow heavy beat.

Ruckus Roboticus - "Never Play With Scratches" (Playing With Scratches)
Weird parlando dopey triphop.

Fiona Apple - "Sally's Song" (Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas (Bonus Tracks Edition))"
beautiful

Rasputina - "If Your Kisses Can't Hold The Man You Love"
powerful, screeching violin and fast rhythm.

Lilly Allen - "Never Gonna Happen" (It's Not Me, It's You)
catchy

Vermillion Lies - "The Astronomer" (What's In The Box)
silly play on words, swinging, a violin, all very burlesque

Puppini Sisters - "Jilted" (The Rise & Fall Of Ruby Woo)
oldfashioned, funny, close-harmony
