I'm a fan (and you should be too) because.. I love how complicated and versitile her music is as well as her. She is a walking, talking, singing dark fairy tale and every song is a piece of a puzzle to a long and intresting story. When you listen to her music she leaves you clues like pieces of bread down a trail to find your way to her story. She's magical but yet the pain is so real and she has a way of touching people with her children (music) in a way that makes us believe that she understands the pain and the solace you may feel at one point or another. She truly is the greatest enigma of our time.
