Ys has managed to creep into my all time fave list.

it's a grower, but once you know it by heart each re-listen is absolutely stunning.

Aye. Ys is utterly enchanting. And she's yet to make a bad album...

I prfer The Milk Eyed Mender. She can do no wrong though. <3

Really can't get past the voice. Can't make it through one song.

it took me some time to appreciate her

the only thing i dislike about Ys is the rather heavy-handed Van **** Parks' arrangements

I much prefer Milk-Eyed Mender to Ys, it just seems more natural, and I prefer the simpler arrangements. Plus the lyrics are hilarious.

Totally me too! I really wanted to appreciate her growth as a song writer but really it was her imperfections and her simplicity that I enjoyed in the first place.

well, i just got The Milk-Eyed Mender to see how it compares to Ys

will hear it later

The Milk-Eyed Meder is easier to get into and has some brilliant songs, but I think I prefer Ys. I currently prefer both of them to Have One on Me.

ok have heard The Milk-Eyed Mender

generally like the simple arrangements, but i think her voice is much harsher here
