So if you are unaware, Fiona Apple’s Tidal is out on vinyl for the first time ever, which is very exciting for me because I adore Fiona Apple and I have been listening to it non stop since I got it. I happen to really like Fiona Apple and I happen to really enjoy the record. It’s a little startling to think about how young she was when the record came out and that she could write such good music so young. It’s also a little startling that 20 years later she looks almost exactly the same. I have posted her before but it’s been almost 5 years, which is kind of crazy but not at all crazy given the fact that it is still hard, in this modern era, to find decent pictures of Fiona Apple. It’s all magazine scans from the 90’s that look like garbage and I get it. That was when she was on the cover of everything as she was sexualized, criticized for being sexualized, criticized for saying she didn’t like being liked just because people sexualized her, criticized for MTV acceptance speeches, criticized for being too skinny, and so on and so on. I have no idea why she kind of retreated in her public profile. I also don’t understand how she could make such good music and people wanted to talk about waifishness. But they did. It was a different time and some of my readers might not believe this but there was a time when it felt like a woman couldn’t do anything right. Someone was always there to criticize it and knock them back down. Luckily things are all better now. Anyway, it seems in general things have come around on her as these things always do. Her anxiety, her OCD which is actually a debilitating disease not just a cute thing to claim to have cause you like to pull off the tab on your coke can, all of these things have been discussed and I think it’s good overall. I feel like I should have more to say about it but I am kind of tired of it all. The simple truth is she is an excellent song writer with a lot to say, she makes beautiful music, she has an amazing voice, and she has piecing blue eyes that I find very attractive. That feels like all that really needs to be said I guess. Today I want to fuck Fiona Apple.
