Joanna Newsom is wrong
Ok, this is gonna come over as a bit picky but in Emily, Joanna Newsom's lyrics are wrong.
The meteoroid is the source of the light and the meteorite is the bone thrown from the void.
I find it a bit odd that a person who choses her lyrics so precisely can get this wrong in a song that seems so authentic.
Wrong on purpose?
You can't even say it's poetic license as the lyrics work fine the right way round.
