Ok, this has to be at least an 8.5 on the cacky handed witch scale - Steve, your opinion please as you're the only one who reads this blog :)
The cocky cow even re-tunes mid song! Hehe.
Ps. The 'cacky fingered old witch' phrase comes from a very amusing story by the very amsuing Jack Dee.

Ooooh, that one is up there on the scale.. 8.5 a good call. Thing is though, it's not so much the chords, it's the speed of the changes and the strange percussive / fingerpicky style of plucking that gives her the unique sound..
Maybe checking out some other guitar whizz people (Joe Satriani, Eddie Van Halen to name a few) might show that it's only a 6 or 7 on the grand cacky handed scale... :)
BTW - surely other people read, it's just they don't seem to post (other than Mia, occasionally a bit tipsy!!) ;)
Oooooh the "Grand Cacky Handed Scale" - I like it :)
Agree though, the fact that she plucks and strums with what seems like 9 fingers on one hand all adds to the sound.
I've yet to buy her latest (and 976th) album "Reprieve" - that may yet include the elusive 11/10 spinal tap style cacky handed song.
