I don't know if I could do a whole album of it either, which is why I've generally avoided Vashti Bunyan! I think that the compil which this track was originally on - Fuzzy Felt Folk - is a lot more diverse than just ethereal and whimsical female vocals.

Not heard of Orriel Smith before. Reminds me very much of Vashti Bunyan? (http://open.spotify.com/search/vashti+bunyan) Mmm like it. Not heard of Orriel Smith before.

It sounds like the sort of ethereal refrain that's used as haunting music in early 70's english horror films. none of which is entirely bad not sure i could face an entire lp though. blimey that’s fey it’s a sort of raggle taggle gypsy version of buttferflies by Dolly Parton.

Although Greg Lake isn't the first comparator I would have thought of! Have a listen to her chicken impersonations - they'll put you in a different frame of mind altogether...

Agree it has a Christmasy feel to it, yet without sounding remotely Christmasy! Weird… bit like Greg Lake’s song is both Festive and non-festive all at the same time. what a whimsical and hypnotic little toon!

Looks like a purchase needs to be made. I highly recommend the Now we are 10 sampler Mondo. There is some great (and lewd) stuff on there. Don't suggest any more box sets for me though (no matter how good they look) - I'm drowning in music!! I don’t actually have the Fuzzy Felt Folk album. Looks like a purchase needs to be made.

It's a classic. The sinister My Mother Said... is a particular favourite. Needless to say I’m a fan of this and the whole Fuzzy Felt Folk album. It’s a classic.
