Neko Richelle Case (b. 8 September 1970) is an American Alternative Country star, known for her dark lyrics (which often contain disturbing subject matter wrapped up in nature motifs and animal metaphors), and for her distinct contralto vocal range. Born in Virginia, then raised in Washington State, Neko's early life was very difficult; not only did she grow up with Abusive Parents, but she lived in the same area that serial killer Gary Ridgeway (the Green River Killer) did his murders, and she often walked to school with a steak knife in her backpack. This rough upbringing greatly impacted the lyrics her adult self would go on to write. By age 15, she had enough, moved out, and began a music career that hasn't stopped since.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })In addition to her solo career, Case is also a member of the indie rock band The New Pornographers, who have their own page. She was also part of the folk duo The Corn Sisters with Canadian folkie Carolyn Mark, and drummed for the pop-punk band Cub.Not to be confused with Nico, though Case has covered her song "Afraid".

Animal Metaphor | |
| Neko Case (Music) / int_51df5ca1 | comment |
Animal Metaphor: In "People Got A Lotta Nerve", Neko compares herself first to a caged elephant going crazy and escaping, then to a captive orca drowning her trainer. In the chorus, she proclaims herself to be a maneater, and complains that men are somehow shocked when such creatures eat them. | |

Abusive Parents | |
| Neko Case (Music) / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: "Nearly Midnight, Honolulu" describes a real encounter Neko had while waiting at a bus stop with a mother and child. The kid started singing, causing the mother to scream, "Get the fuck away from me! Why don't you ever shut up?" In the song, Neko addresses the kid directly, urging them to never shut up. She adds that her own upbringing was like that, so she knows how hard this situation is, and sends the kid her love, even though she knows they'll probably never see each other again. | |
