Amanda Palmer's love song dedications

Through the early to mid-noughties, Amanda Palmer’s voice cut through as frontwoman for the Dresden Dolls. Their cabaret pop filled the airwaves, and when she went solo fans were just as curious. Palmer is a woman of great conviction; she speaks often about the communities that form around art, and is unrelenting in her commitment to her own vision. She’s also great company. When she did this Take 5 in the Summer of 2011, she had just got married and was about to release her album Amanda Palmer Goes Down Under. So from the Magnetic Fields to Paul Kelly and the appropriately-titled Love, here’s Amanda Palmer with her love song dedications. Jason Webley - ‘Eleven Saints {Ft. Jay Thompson}’ The Magnetic Fields - ‘The Book of Love’ Ben Folds Five - ‘Song for the Dumped’ Paul Kelly With Uncle Bill - ‘Taught By Experts’ Love - ‘Everybody’s Gotta Live’
