what makes a singer/songwriter interesting?
apart from the usual pretentious shit you don't understand but like because it's hipster
after replying to the "favorite female musician" thread, I was just reflecting about Joni Mitchell that I really like her ability to make the female viewpoint relatable - it's a really uncommon quality I think where you both relate with something that you still recognize as being different from yourself
I think singer/songwriters at their best make you see something from another persons point of view in an insightful way, you relate to the singer/songwriter and also get insight into whatever their singing about through the song if you know what I mean
