Genuinely not sure if it’s Bjork or Joanna Newsom. It seriously sounds halfway between both of them. I was leaning towards Bjork when I started writing this, now I’m leaning towards Joanna Newsom. Now it sounds more like Bjork.
If it is a song from the new Bjork album I am definitely getting it. If it is a song from Have One On Me I should really get that.
It’s almost definitely Bjork, though. But she’s definitely been listening to Joanna Newsom.

MFF#8 Sharon’s Lazy Sunday Mix
This is an adapted version (no overlapping with mixes I’ve already uploaded/plan to upload!) of a mix I made for my friend Sharon. Sharon was going away on tour and I made her two mixes for the van as a going-away present. This was one; I figured it would be nice to have for those days where you’re totally wrecked from touring.
I also thought it might just be nice in general for a nice, quiet Sunday.
Bonus points if you get the reference in the title!

I originally made this as part of a going-away present for a friend who was going on tour. I figured there’d be days where she and the band would be totally wrecked from the night before and would want something relaxing like this to listen to in the van. I was listening to it and reading for the past hour or so, and it was quite nice, so yeah. Here’s the tracklist:
I decided I needed to photoshop a picture of an astronomer singing Joanna Newsom lyrics.
