Joanna Newsom – In California Lyrics 16 years ago
Anyone else notice how some of the melodies and chord progressions sound exactly like "It Does Not Suffice" and "Baby Birch"? It seems to almost be a medley or homage, i love it!

Joanna Newsom – Does Not Suffice Lyrics 16 years ago
I actually sort of think this song might have been written as a response to Smog's "All Your Women Things." In the song, Bill Callahan (Joanna's ex) is describing all the womanly clothes left strewn around his room. He goes on to sing about missing the person who left. "Why couldn't I have loved you This tenderly When you were here In the flesh So tenderly." The lyrics to this song just seem like an interesting counterpoint that has Joanna picking up all her clothes and leaving him to be with himself.
