fiona apple is my soul mate

How does she always get it so right? Her first album in 7 years dropped yesterday.

I grew up on this shit.  Literally. Her first album was released in 1996, and I was instantly captivated by her sound and incredible lyrics.  Captivated being the key word here. She has a unique way of sounding through her lyrics with the accellerating and swelling of her voice.  And her long awaited album does not disappoint.  Apple’s lyrics on the new album are compelling and much like her preceding albums is very raw and very real.

I felt obliged to make a list of each album so surely you don’t miss a beat.
