great no problems
great no problems

love this talent... this is her best album.. it's music therapy

Not terrible
I love Fiona's distinctive piano playing, and I was really hoping this songbook would have the notes she actually plays. Instead you end up with a bunch of simplified melodies that sound a bit like the songs but don't have all her crazy-amazing accompaniment.

"Never is a Promise" is the standout piece here-- really quite good. The rest are kind of dull. Yes, it's her music, but it's lost all its soul.

Buy this is you want to play Fiona songs casually for fun, but don't expect to be able to rock out or sing along: it just sounds kind of silly without all her wild key-thumping accompaniment.

would definitely buy from this seller again
product arrived in less than a week and was in a condition that was consistent with the description on amazon. great experience.

When the Pawn...? Extraordinary Machine?Oh well, I'll settle.
"Tidal" was the only Fiona Apple album to have a corresponding songbook published, so it's pretty much a must-have for fans that play piano.It definitely has its faults, though.

As arrangements go, these transcriptions are just "okay."It's a pet peeve of mine, but for this type of music, I would rather not have the melody (the sung part) be incorporated into the piano part.

As an intermediate pianist, "Sullen Girl" and "Never Is a Promise" were the most enjoyable to play, as well as the easiest to learn."Shadowboxer," "Criminal," and "Pale September" feel a little awkward, but overall are decent arrangements.The end of "Criminal" doesn't include those nice improvisations that are on the recording, but that's not unusual.

"Sleep to Dream" is pretty much a mess, but I suppose it's a hard song to interpret on piano alone.The rest I have yet to try, but their level of difficulty looks to be about the same as the others.

For collectors of Fiona memorabilia, there isn't much here for you: no photos or artist info included.

Hey, if we can't get the other albums, how about a pop songbook that includes "Love Ridden," "Paper Bag," "Parting Gift," and "Not About Love"?Are you listening, editors?

not great
This book is good if you want to sort of sound like you're playing Fiona Apple songs, but not good if you want to actually play like Fiona. The arrangements aren't bad, but they're definitely simplified, which is disappointing considering that Fiona's playing isn't terribly complicated. I gave it an extra star for being probably the only commercially available source of Fiona Apple sheet music in existence. ... Read more

Snow White and the Candy Apple
Snow White and the Candy Apple is a great book.The first reason is it is short but with a lot of action. When I read the book it was different then most of the other books, but in a good way. Another reason I like this book is because the two girls in this book are creative and fun to read about. The author (Nadia Higgins)has written many books, but so far this one is the best. ...

Excerpt: Official release: Bootleg release: Extraordinary Machine is the third album by American singer-songwriter Fiona Apple, released by Epic Records in the United States on October 4, 2005 (see 2005 in music). Produced by Jon Brion, it was originally to be released in 2003 but was later delayed several times by the record label without explanation, leading to speculation that a dispute had arisen over its commercial appeal. The controversy surrounding the album and leaked recordings of the Jon Brion sessions were the subject of substantial press attention, as well as a highly publicised fan-led campaign to see the album officially released. In collaboration with producers Mike Elizondo and Brian Kehew, Apple re-recorded the album over 2004 and 2005, and it was eventually released more than three years after the original recording sessions began. After completing a concert tour in support of her second album When the Pawn... (1999) in 2000, Fiona Apple relocated to Los Angeles. "The first couple of years , I didn't have anything left in me to write about ... I just figured if the songs came to me, they came to me, and if not, 'Oh, well, it's been fun'", she said. During her hiatus, Apple contemplated retiring from her recording career. In spring 2002 Apple and Jon Brion, her longtime friend and producer on When the Pawn, met for their weekly lunch meeting. Brion's five-year relationship with comedienne Mary Lynn Rajskub had abruptly ended during the shooting of the Paul Thomas Anderson film Punch-Drunk Love (2002), which Brion was scoring. He reportedly "begged" Apple to make another album afte...http://booksllc.net/?id=1578286 ... Read more

Pages: 48. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: from the album No One's Gonna Change Our World Side two "Across the Universe" is a song by the English rock group The Beatles. It was written by John Lennon, and credited to Lennon/McCartney. The song first appeared on the various artists charity compilation album No One's Gonna Change Our World in December 1969, and later, in different form, on Let It Be, the group's final album to be released. One night in 1967, the phrase "words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup" came to Lennon after hearing his then-wife Cynthia, according to Lennon, "going on and on about something." Later, after "she'd gone to sleepand I kept hearing these words over and over, flowing like an endless stream," Lennon went downstairs and it turned into a song. He began to write the rest of the lyrics and when he was done, he went to bed and forgot about them. In the morning, Lennon found the paper on which he had written the lyrics and took them down to his piano, where he began to play chords, and find pitches to match the words. The flavour of the song was heavily influenced by Lennon's and The Beatles' interest in Transcendental Meditation in late 1967 early 1968, when the song was composed. Based on this he added the mantra "Jai guru deva om" (Sanskrit: ) to the piece, which became the link to the chorus. The Sanskrit phrase is a sentence fragment whose words could have many meanings, but roughly translate to "Victory to God divine", "Hail to the divine guru", or the phrase commonly invoked by the late Maharishi Mahesh Yogi "All Glory to Guru Deva." The son...http://booksllc.net/?id=1676375 ... Read more
