Not About Love.

I've been listening to Fiona Apple's Extraordinary Machine extraordinary_machine.jpg
the past two weeks, and I can honestly say that she is fucking badass. The lyrics are incredible, and they're put together with such varying and unique cadence that something different surprises me every time I listen. Not to mention the piano. Oh god, the piano. I fell in love with her music (and with her?) back when I was listening to Sullen Girl and Shadowboxer, but Extraordinairy Machine is an entirely new love affair. I mean, for the love of god, she ended the CD with a waltz. She is fucking badass.

If you don't have a point to make
Don't sweat it
You'll make a sharp one being so kind
And I'd sure appreciate it
Everyone else's goal's to get big-headed
Why should I follow that beat being that I'm
Better than fine
