off-key or not?
intentionally or not?

Will Oldham has some songs that are absolutely perfect. I don't think it matters if he's off key or not. He has the same touch as Neil Young and Tom Waits, Something about their voices, the words and the music that together makes their music hard to breakdown.. it just works.
(Others I'd consider having this similar gift include Isaac Brock and Hayden).

only a handful of dudes have ever been able to sing whatever the hell note they want and sound even more emotive by doing so... will oldham is one. a genius of our time. for his vision as much as his production.

Will Oldham is the man. I've begun digging up everything I can find. I moved from Bonnie Prince Billy to his Palace records.
Everything he does is just so right.
