Is she objectively the best female musician of all time?

>>70082964
shes not even the best female harp player in popular music. alice coltrane owns/owned her.

Not even the best from the 2000's (or 2010's).

Joanna's lyrics are better than Kate's t bh.

She's also more talented instrumentation wise - very underrated pianist. Kate Bush is a far better singer but that's it.

>muh reverb
>muh whispery vocals
nah

>>70084420
putting muh in front of something doesn't automatically mean its a bad thing

>>70084404
LOL

>>70084445
Prove me wrong.

>>70084404
> Kate Bush is a far better singer but that's it.

not forgetting that Kates albums are about 100x more interesting than Joannas.

>>70084580
How are they more interesting? I feel Joanna is superior in terms of arrangement, harmony, counterpoint/melody, etc. as well as thematically and lyrically.

>>70084580
that's subjective

>>70084855
music is subjective, more at 11.

Yeah, definitely the best of the last decade, musician and song writer

>>70084855
Welcome to /mu/, a board for the discussion of something that is inherently subjective

Here are some that are just as good or better than Joanna just from this decade.
>Julia Holter
>St. Vincent
>Fiona Apple
>Janelle Monae
>Bjork still
>Xenia Rubinos
>Jenny Hval
So if she wants to be the best of all time, she has her work cut out for her. Here are some from the past just to put some more perspective on this claim:
>Nico
>Alice Coltrane
>Nina Simone
>Stevie Nicks
>Patti Smith
>Dolly Parton
>Kate Bush
>Joni Mitchell

>>70082964
Nah but she's objectively the qtest harp player that ever lived.

>>70084221
best male artist too, she transcends gender

>>70082964

Definitely the best female songwriter. Top 5 songwriter all time, probably.

>>70084440

They still are

Vashti Bunyan
Yoko Ono
Annette Peacock
Carla Bley
Sheila E

True patrician female musician.

ITT: no one who has ever read Joannas lyrics

>>70085841
ITT: People who think lyrics matter

>>70083234
came here to post this

>>70083234
The only one I'd say comes close to Kate is Joni Mitchell. Other than her Kate is in her own league.

loving every laugh

Joanna is incredible technically speaking but Bjork remains my favorite musician of all time.

Still love Joanna though, even if Divers kinda sucked.

What is wrong with Joanna's voice? How could you enjoy that annoying voice?
