(just thought I'd keep it going till you're back 🙂)
Thanks, I was worried no one would keep count!

Two things are notable when looking the lyrical genius of Fiona Apple. The poetic aspect of them and her love of words. My vocabulary has notable increased thanks to her. In this song there is one line that exemplifies this trait.
"My derring-do allows me to dance the rigadoon around you
But by the time I'm close to you,
I lose my desideratum and now you"
Rigadoon - lively couples dance
Desideratum - Something wanted or needed.
Here's the greatest Beatles cover ever. She made it for the Pleasantville soundtrack (great movie!) along with a Percy Mayfield cover. Fiona can really sing anything.
I was looking for a good song and I came across something I have never seen before, Fiona Performing the first song she wrote - at age six. Then it shows her at age 8 then now. Writing songs at age six, incredible. (I don't understand why people were so mean to such a nice girl 🙁 )
Here's her song Waltz from her third album. One of her happiest songs, kinda has that whimsical feel to it, a very different type of song then from her early days. Nice song.
