Fate as Malleable as Clay
Tully Rohrer
June 11th, 2007
The fly fishing was great yesterday. It was also unfortunately the Pocono 500 Nascar race, which brings helicopters and fighter jet fly-bys all day long. Not the most peaceful day out on the Tobyhanna I’ve ever had.
Song of the Day: The Decemberists - Bridges and Balloons (Joanna Newsom cover)
Joanna Newsom is a genius. Unfortunately, 99% of the population of this country will never give her enough of a chance to realize it. For those of you that won’t, at least give The Decemberists covering Newsom a chance. Colin Meloy does a pretty damn good job with this song… but it would be hard to ruin a song this perfect. Beautiful melody and incredible lyrics… take the time to look them up, decipher them, and be floored by Newsom’s poetic nature: “We sailed away on a winter’s day with fate as malleable as clay…”

She’s also pretty adorable.
Nice landscape. Amazing tonal scale.
