Cedar + Gold by Tristan Prettyman.

She wrote it after her fiance unexpectedly broke off their engagement. Glass Jar is great. Same with Say Anything and I Was Gonna Marry You.

Yes, she has a very beautiful but melancholy voice.


She really did, you're right. Very soulful, very sad. I read a biography about her that was hearbreaking. Cannot recall the name of it right now.
