She is not flat. I think what you're hearing is the slight dissonance in the melody and the harmony, characteristic of many traditional and modern Scottish songs. She is perfectly in key and the song is absolutely beautiful. Definitely my favourite Scottish artist
I had the privilege of meeting Karine at Forres, Findhorn Music Festival. She's genuinely wonderful. Listen to A Pocket of Wind Resistance in one sitting and be prepared to be blown away and sobbing. Magic.
Every once in a while,if you're very lucky, you happen upon an artist so wonderful that they soar above & beyond mere words. For me, Karine belongs to that rare group. I saw her perform at Ely folk fest last week & if you are fortunate enough to be able to go see her yourself, do.
I took a wonderful tour with Jim and Susie Malcolm and Karine played an evening concert for 40 of us....it was priceless. I sat 5 feet in front of her and could not breathe....
She did a private performance of an hour to our group while we traveled Scotland with Jim and Susie Malcolm..it was incredible! I sat 5 feet from her...she is a lovely lovely person..
Even though Darwin theory is now being disputed and with sound reasoning, it does still have significant relevance . This song still holds true though, always has and always will.
I love the Darwin Song Project. Now I have discovered this fantastic artist Karine Polwart. I am so enamored by her singing, her music and her writing. Wow!
There are two types of people in this world: beetles and butterflies. The beetles try to drag the butterflies down. Wouldn''t you prefer to be a butterfly?
If you mean at 3:53 to 4:05, she is definitely singing a dissonance, but she is not flat. I heard it as a musical reflection of the clash between the beauty and the sadness of life, which is sort of what the song is about.
Best scotish singer song writer by far!! Love her music and spirit

My brother liked this music very much. Now it hurts me because I miss him soo much. Indeed, he left in a wrong time.
Touching music.
Saw her at Theatre Severn Shrewsbury last night with her brother Steven and Inge, terrific concert and this was one of the standout songs.

Indeed! Karine is the complete package.I saw her live last year and it was a magical night.She and her band are insanely talented.
Has anyone got the chords for this?
Maybe your hearing is flat, because her singing certainly isn't.
Why are your ears pointed?
Why does she sing flat?
Same reason the earth is flat...because it is so breathtaking looking over the edge
she doesn't.....

Perhaps you need to make an appointment with your local Otolaryngologist.
