Joanna Newsom - Only Skin (Live in Philadelphia 9.8.19)

[@itsjuno4467]

adore the little detail in this version that after "back in the world that moves often according to the hoarding of these clues" she does a downwards arpeggio instead of the expected upwards one to signify coming out of the daydream of the bird coming back to life

[@pheebles101]

Thank YOU and you were sitting in such a beautiful spot to watch her hands and face as she plays STUNNING RECORDING THANK YOU SO MUCH. Love from a country she did not tour in

[@ungoliantmarauder8849]

Her voice is really on tune like oh my god

[@nectarandice]

Yeah! So incredible to hear how full and lush her voice has matured. Great stuff

[@Nhnhnfk]

4:52 I love how everything just CHANGES

[@mattdinan6990]

She sings this impossibly song SO BEAUTIFULLY!

[@laproserpina2620]

No words for how much this song means to me. 💖

[@TheRackits]

of course the show I pass up and she sings all my favorite songs from YS...

[@shieldmaiden1749]

Best version of this song I’ve ever had the pleasure of hearing. It’s thematic depth and soulful resonance works particularly well I think with just the harp and Joanna’s sublime voice x

[@ItachiUchiha-ru8hy]

Have you heard the Bottletree version? It's just as awesome, but she has a band accompanyment

[@nectarandice]

She's doing it live!! Sick!

[@brianzane5748]

Mesmerizing. We were lucky to be there.

[@pheebles101]

Yessss honestly asked myself if I should buy plane tickets from New Zealand to see her play but that was just not feasible 😂😭

[@jadeniskiev4323]

This is insanely incredible

[@sleepingredwolf]

thank you so much, i live in hong kong and basically never get the chance to see my favorite artists live. this is such a nice recording and joanna’s voice is especially amazing ❤️

[@dovegraydays]

truly ethereal. one of the best renditions of this song i’ve ever heard from her. i saw her in january of 2020 and she didn’t play this song so i love watching her performance of this just months prior. thanks for uploading this for everyone 💘

this reminded me that humans aren't just long, bald monkeys
