Fiona Apple

[Mafiosa 1,089]

I feel so tasteless saying this but as a whole, this album didn’t do it for me compared to The Idler Wheel

i feel that too

idler wheel is more euphonic and has more gusto to me

[Dark Angel 202,190]

i've been hearing about her latest album all over and it seems like it's really, really great. i am interested and i wanna check it out, i've also heard that it's better and more easy to understand if you've listened to her previous records, do you guys reccomend i listen through her previous albums before fetch the bolt catchers? also, what songs do you guys like best from her catalog, and how would you describe her sound?

I would listen to her discography if you can, but definitely at least check out The Idler Wheel... before FTBC! Some of my favorite songs of hers are Never Is a Promise, Pale September, Shadowboxer, Sullen Girl, pretty much the whole When The Pawn... album, Get Him Back, Oh Well, Parting Gift, Window, Valentine, Johnathan, Regret, and Anything We Want! I would say her style is piano based and jazz influenced alternative pop/rock

I suggest to go to Youtube and listen to all her albums (before you buy them).

 

Write something like this  " Fiona Apple __name of album___ full album "

 

Tidal (1996)

When the Pawn... (1999)

Extraordinary Machine (2005)

The Idler Wheel... (2012)

Fetch the Bolt Cutters (2020)

 

All musicians have a unique sound and they evolve their musical styles over the years.

So I reccomend for you to start with her first record and then go down the list.   It is the only way to get into their music.

There are only 5 albums, so one of them might be your favorite.

 

You have all weekend to listen to Fiona Apple, come back on monday for a written exam  !     lol

ooh, you set me up for a challenge here, maybe i'll have to do this. come back on monday and write a little review and talk about the experience. being in quarantine is giving me this great opportunity to discover new music and get myself more involved in it and i feel like i've been wasting the opportunity.

My favorite lyrics from each Fetch the Bolt Cutters song:

 

I Want You To Love Me:

• And I know none of this, will matter in the long run
  But I know a sound, is still a sound around no one
• I want you to use it
  Blast the music
  Bang it, bite it, bruise it
• Whenever you want to begin, begin
  We don't have to go back to where we've been
  I am the woman who wants you to win, and I've been
  Waiting, waiting for
  You to love me

Shameika:

• I used my feet to crush dead leaves like they had fallen from trees
  Just for me
  Just to be crash cymbals
• Hurricane Gloria in excelsis deo, that's my bird in my tree
  My dog and my man and my music is my holy trinity

Fetch The Bolt Cutters:

• Afraid of not being your friend
  And I've always been too smart for that, but you know what?
  My heart was not, I took it like a kid, you see
  The cool kids voted to get rid of me
• I thought being blacklisted would be grist for the mill
  Until I realized
  I'm still here
• I grew up in the shoes they told me I could fill
  Shoes that were not made for running up that hill
  And I need to run up that hill
  I need to run up that hill, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will

Under The Table:

• I would beg to disagree, but begging disagrees with me

Relay:

• Evil is a relay sport when the one who's burned turns to pass the torch
• I resent you for being so sure
  I resent you for presenting your life, like a fucking propaganda brochure
• And I see that you keep trying to bait me
  And I'd love to get up in your face
  But I know if I hate you, for hating me
  I will have entered the endless race

Rack Of His:

• I gave you pictures and cards on non-holidays
  And it wasn't because I was bored
  I followed you from room to room, with no attention
  And it wasn't because I was bored
• I thought you would wail on me, like you wail on them
  But it was just a coochie-coo-coups
• And I've been used so many times
  I've learned to use myself in kind
  I try to drum, I try to write
  I can't do either well, but alright, it's fine, I guess
  'Cause I know how to spend my time
• Meanwhile, I'm loving you so much

Newspaper:

• In my own way, I fell in love with you
• I watch him walk over, talk over you, be mean to you
  And it makes me feel close to you

Ladies:

• Yet another woman, to whom I won't get through
• No love is like any other love
  So, it would be insane to make a comparison with you

Heavy Balloon:

• I spread like strawberries!
  I climb like peas and beans!
• We get dragged down, down to the same spot enough times in a row
  The bottom begins to feel like the only safe place that you know

Cosmonauts:

• When I met you I was fine with my nothing

For Her:

• Sniff white off a starlet's breast
  Treating his wife like less than a guest
• She's tired of planting her knees on the cold, hard floor of facts
  Trying to act like the other girl acts
• Well, good morning! Good morning!
  You raped me in the same bed your daughter was born in

Drumset: I have none for this song

 

On I Go:

• On I go, not toward or away
• But now I only move to move
