    The word is Lonely

    #BethOrton, “Lonely” from Weather Alive, 2022

    I fell in love with Beth Orton’s voice and her aesthetic with the first plaintive notes of “She Cries Your Name” from her major-label debut “Trailer Park” in 1995. There is a cool #downtempo texture that just drips from her vocals, whether used to add organic appeal in a techno tableau (paging #WilliamOrbit), or to chill the vibe of #AcousticFolk. She has penned and sung transcendent music that simultaneously opens and soothes my heart, and less ambitious songs that are still delicate and lovely, had highs and lows over the years, but she hasn’t moved me in the way she used to in some time. With “Lonely” on her latest album “Weather Alive,” her voice does sound weathered - pun intended, on both our parts? - but the magic is back.
