    Eliza, I have loved your music for years, your voice is so ethereal and heavenly in the sex and joy and laughter kind of way. I started listening to The Mountain Goats more recently and John Darnielle’s lyrics make me feel raw in the blood and guts and trauma kind of way. Your voice on these lyrics makes me feel like I’m going insane, and the strings sound like sunlight feels. There’s nothing like this. Please please make more music like this. Honestly, make more mountain goats covers. Make more music with strings like this!! It suits you, and your take is so fresh.

    Amazing! Great podcast but this is the first cover from the series that offers something new AND respects the cadence of the original track.

    • @JakeHand
      @JakeHand 6 лет назад +2

      The real question is "Is it true to the song?" A "track" is just an instance of a song a point in time. There is no original cadence, that's just a pattern in your mind. It's really more a question of what the song itself determines appropriate. Songs have personalities like that and tend to change over time, even when with the same artist.
      You ever been to an Eels show? Anytime "Novocaine for the Soul" gets played it's nearly unrecognizable compared to the 'original track,' yet still sounds awesome and caries similar spirit.

    • @MemphianSounds
      @MemphianSounds 6 лет назад +9

      Jake Hand Suggesting there is no cadence is to suggest there is no lyric, no melody, no arrangement and no choices being made by the artist. Your condescension aside - as though I'd never heard an artist rearrange their work - my point was more so regarding the minimal amount of information on AHWT: voice/melody, lyric/cadence and guitar/attack of mostly rudimentary chords. With this foundation there are a number of ways they can be manipulated and internalized by artists but the majority of the covers in this series have removed the few concise parts of these great songs and laid the lyrics over bland, imprecise chords or tepid looped rhythms. I liked this cover because it did something compositionally interesting: it built on AND contributed to an existing foundation.

    out of curiosity, who else things the nightvale guy is a terrible interviewer? i feel he tries too much to come up with examples of how he's like JD.. "oh yeah, i totally know what you're taking about JD, when I write for nightvale i have something with vague shadows of similarity to what you just said..."
    maybe it's just me...

    • @nandankulkarni2628

      I think a lot of people feel similarly, but I disagree. It's a show where two artists talk to each other. It's for lovers of Night Vale, The Mountain Goats, and creators in general. Most conversations are dynamic. The goal isn't always to directly extract information from others like an interview. I personally enjoy IOLTMG just because of how open the whole thing feels. I like seeing artists I love interacting and talking about their work and each other's work.

      The interviewer is generally negative, saying “ I don’t listen to this, I don’t read that” but if you’re saying what you’re not all the time WHAT ARE YOU?
      John’s got such a broad view on art and takes joy in all kinds.
