i owe melanie martinez so much for this damn cover. she is the reason that i ever searched this song up on apple music and found neutral milk hotel. she is the reason i am getting “pluck all your silly strings, bend all your notes for me” tattooed across my knees. and she is the reason, intern, that i stopped listening to pop and started listening to folk, rock, and jazz. my life was changed because of this cover.

@@vpxc agreed. its an extremely difficult song to cover well due to the awkward nuance and personal nature of the original. also...i've always wanted to hear a female performed interpretation of the album in full and how that could change the context and feeling of the songs. she absolutely filled this song with her soul. beautifully done.

People seriously dislike this...? Like...really? How? There are many, many NMH covers out there. Lots of them are decent. Quite a few, good. A couple are exceptional. And then, there is this. I don't know this artist, but her performance is amazing. She is somehow able to make "Oh Comely" her own while staying true to the creepy-yet-hauntingly-beautiful breath of Jeff Mangum's lyrics and melody pop in a sweet-yet-eerie and very in-tune way.

@sophiab6486 Жыл бұрын
The only reason I clicked on this was because I saw a female presenting person perform a cover of the song and I thought it was brave. However I heard what she did not sing in the lyrics and I immediately changed my viewpoint. That was not brave. Nor was it ambitious. From one lady to another it was actually kind of disappointing. And from someone who is a fan, I don’t appreciate the edits to the lyrics of what was already perfect prose. Lastly, the disjointed timing and odd energy brought to the stage with all of the silly flourishes and persona to be considered this was a poor song choice for her even if it was in her vocal range. “Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.”

@@sophiab6486 "Female presenting person" - huh? Wearing a dress or having long hair or makeup doesn't make you "female presenting". Don't equate female with the antiquated notion of "feminine".
