    For a few years now I've been aware of Amanda Palmer, and listened to a song of hers hear and there. And then I read The Art of Asking, and now I just want to absorb as much of her stuff as I can, because I've realized how awesome she is.
    Neil's rad too.

    Amanda's Judy Blume song made me realize how important people like Christopher Pike and R. L. Stein were to my development as a youngster. I hope someone can say the same about her one day.

  • @geekgroupie42

    • @lovelyxskinny
      @lovelyxskinny 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's not love, it's lust. I love them both but they're not in love and them needing to see other people shows that. they're not happy enough as a couple to just be together, they need to add dozens of women and men on the side

    • @geekgroupie42
      @geekgroupie42 8 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      lovelyxskinny i have not heard that they want to see other people (i take it you mean sexually and not socially). but if they do, i don't think that means they don't love each other. polyandry - it's a thing.

    • @lariatlarge8721
      @lariatlarge8721 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +lovelyxskinny You don't understand open relationships at all, do you? Right. Didn't think so. Have fun on your judgy horse. Hope it tosses you off sometime.

    • @geekgroupie42
      @geekgroupie42 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      i thought of that after i wrote the comment. i don't think she meant it literally. to me it was her expressing her fear of getting married.

    • @rachelpastors
      @rachelpastors 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Lust fades- love doesn't. Having open relationships doesn't tarnish a relationship. Get over yourself.

    59:00 I wish Neil would talk about the mechanics of writing. He sometimes makes it sound like writing is a magical process that just happens. It would be great if he went on Writing Excuses, for example, and really digged into a concrete subject

    ...had to pause watchin' and listenin' "an evening with..." as i feel like to share my impressions... shame to say, but i have met amanda palmer listenin' to the dresden dolls... was sos surprised with my "discovery" and fell for he immediately... then one evening i subconsciously "...googled HER..." and then paraphrasing neil's "feminine endings" was lost like a child... ;) similar but completely different from tori amos or lori anderson, ehrrr stop stupid comparison... and then neil, who has written "coraline"... together they create a real diamond on today's music scene... ok, enough but last word is: "an evening with..." is looped on my iphone and it's gotta stay that way for a long time... wish you guys many happy years 2gether as a couple in private life and on stage...

  • @citizensguard3433
    @citizensguard3433 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Amanda performs it more beautifully, but when Neil does it, there's more soul. Maybe it's the male female dynamic or the fact I heard Neil do it first. I just always prefered his version.
