This is amazing...a really evocative feeling of breakup, remorse and heartache - I'm 40 years old but this gave me goosebumps about a breakup when I was 20.
She was saying that the song has never been called Canopies and Grapes and that she didn't know where that came from. It was great she was quite happy to talk about music for like 40 mins then she signed some stuff for me.
I wanna see you tonight What's the point? All we do is fight I've loved you So long I don't know who I'd be without My head hurts I wish I'd never woke up I feel worse Than when S Club 7 broke up I hate the day It hates me So does everybody else I sit here drooling on my own again And like a routine episode of Friends What does it mean to be American? Is it Feelings, coffee and I'll be there for you? Later on me and a bottle will hook up to have some fun Then I'll call your house at twelve to let you know That I'm drunk Say I'm sorry Mr C, I was just looking for your son How are you, incidentally, do you know if he's out Alone? There is this book he lent to me something like seven Months ago I'm gonna burn it in the street be so kind as let him Know That I'm dealing With this badly And Could he please get back to me? Since you've gone my only friends are Billy Bragg and The Jam Though my time with you has got me feeling oh so k.d. Lang I think you're right about the New Kids on the Block And I agree now Billy Joel does not rock Wish I could tell you all the things that Woody Allen Helps me see How Annie Hall is starting to seem quite a lot like you And me It took a while to come around to David Bowie's new CD And it's much too late to give back your Magnetic Fields EP Can I keep it By my pillow? Fucking loved it How I long to tell you so When I get to sleep I'll dream again of canopies and Grapes And wake shaking from the knowledge that the mattress Holds your shape I assume my phone is dead because it hasn't rung for Months If tomorrow is the funeral do you think that you could Come? I could give you back your music and your t-shirts and Your socks Walk to Jazz's house in SOHO cry into her letter box Spend some time out to resuscitate my soul Take up smoking and drink carrot juice and grow Teach the mattress to expel you from its folds Then dry my eyes and keep on walking til the motion Makes me strong Until one day I realise I don't remember that you're Gone We'll be strangers Who were lovers I'll recover It's so weird how time goes on
Hong Kong actually, she was born there, then moved to London.. Her CD was edited in Spain, maybe thats what you heard... not sure if she lived there tho.. i dont think so, she was always playing in bars all over england over the past years..
@peteblueeyesfromBI I agree. The difference lies mainly in the lyrics. Like Kate Nash, Lily Allen has some appealing tunes that are nicely honest, but they don't go much beyond that. Laura Marling, Emmy and Regina Spektor's songs are loaded with poetic effort not just at the time outbursts of sincerity.
@dresdendollsx you have to notice a similarity in the tonality and phrasing of their voice. but definately different attitudes and intentions in their music. Making them completaly different artists, as you said.
this goes alright, i just read below about the whole laura marling thing, this doesn't remind me slightly of laura marling, they're both different artists, completely.
I think Jamiee means that she didn't realize she had to be so specific.......stop being so nitpicky, i don't think she meant that they have the same writing style, comparisons work in casual conversation different than if you're being exact. it was an expression of personal preference. she doesn't need to begin each opinion with "I THINK" or anything like that.
2023 still here….

this is the greatest break-up song I have ever heard.
Absolute banger
This is fantastic... Beautifully written and delivered. She's awesome.
Big Up Emmy the Great!
i love this song
She was saying that the song has never been called Canopies and Grapes and that she didn't know where that came from. It was great she was quite happy to talk about music for like 40 mins then she signed some stuff for me.
we'll be strangers who were lovers, i'll recover........ it's so weird how time goes on
I wanna see you tonight
What's the point?
All we do is fight
I've loved you
So long
I don't know who I'd be without
My head hurts
I wish I'd never woke up
I feel worse
Than when S Club 7 broke up
I hate the day
It hates me
So does everybody else
I sit here drooling on my own again
And like a routine episode of Friends
What does it mean to be American?
Is it
Feelings, coffee and
I'll be there for you?
Later on me and a bottle will hook up to have some fun
Then I'll call your house at twelve to let you know
That I'm drunk
Say I'm sorry Mr C, I was just looking for your son
How are you, incidentally, do you know if he's out
Alone?
There is this book he lent to me something like seven
Months ago
I'm gonna burn it in the street be so kind as let him
Know
That I'm dealing
With this badly
And
Could he please get back to me?
Since you've gone my only friends are Billy Bragg and
The Jam
Though my time with you has got me feeling oh so k.d.
Lang
I think you're right about the New Kids on the Block
And I agree now Billy Joel does not rock
Wish I could tell you all the things that Woody Allen
Helps me see
How Annie Hall is starting to seem quite a lot like you
And me
It took a while to come around to David Bowie's new CD
And it's much too late to give back your Magnetic
Fields EP
Can I keep it
By my pillow?
Fucking loved it
How I long to tell you so
When I get to sleep I'll dream again of canopies and
Grapes
And wake shaking from the knowledge that the mattress
Holds your shape
I assume my phone is dead because it hasn't rung for
Months
If tomorrow is the funeral do you think that you could
Come?
I could give you back your music and your t-shirts and
Your socks
Walk to Jazz's house in SOHO cry into her letter box
Spend some time out to resuscitate my soul
Take up smoking and drink carrot juice and grow
Teach the mattress to expel you from its folds
Then dry my eyes and keep on walking til the motion
Makes me strong
Until one day I realise I don't remember that you're
Gone
We'll be strangers
Who were lovers
I'll recover
It's so weird how time goes on
This is my favorite of her songs.
i love her music, it's just so nice, i like it a lot!!! :D

I was not ready for that line about David Bowie...
This song is sooo adictive :D
She kinda of reminds me Laura Marling ^^
ach its too good
I was talking to Emmy tonight!! It was so cool. The song was supposed to be Canopies and Drapes but there was a typo haha
@dresdendollsx you have to notice a similarity in the tonality and phrasing of their voice. but definately different attitudes and intentions in their music. Making them completaly different artists, as you said.
"i feel worse then when S club 7 broke up'
NOT possible
Good ending.
its on the bonus track addition :)
It's on the Edward is Dedward ep.
i love this song; i wish it was on the album :( does anyone know where i can get it from?
I like this version better then the one itunes
Great song! Great comments! I love everyone who posted before me! ^^
@Fooliccini she totally said grapes.

Wow! And what did she say?? :)

@dresdendollsx btw.... love the dresden dolls! :P
Hehe well, I don't know the true title then, did she reveal it to you? She seems really nice :)
this is so one million times better than lily allen
this goes alright, i just read below about the whole laura marling thing, this doesn't remind me slightly of laura marling, they're both different artists, completely.

ULU?
was she drunk?
he he he he he he he

(sorry, I assumed, and there's a reason why it begins with those three letters!)
zzzz
this is the weirdest song ever :/
