I like the peoples reaction to her.

The Saw Lady might be a subway siren.

wtf is up with the faces she is making ?

enjoy the music non the less

woot... was that audio for real?? with a SAW?

It really sounds like she's humming the tune along with the saw, but I don't really know what a saw sounds like so perhaps those overtones are all coming from it... I wish there was a better recording. The mic is clearly peaking each time she bows the saw.

But totally awesome, nonetheless.

Yes, the musical saw is real... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musical_saw

The musical saw has been a staple for all sorts of eerie music throughout the years. For instance, the music in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Chances are pretty high that you know the sound, you just didn't realize it. Sort like how Dr. Pepper is prune flavored -- most people have tasted carbonated prune juice, they just didn't know it.

Not sure if everyone's clear on the fact that she's playing the saw over a track of the actual song. That's why it sounds like she's "humming" along.

Damn, I was expecting something else entirely from sawlady.com
