3. BjorkHomogenic
I used to love the Sugarcubes, and then her debut album came out and I thought it was alright, I was going for different things and locked into Suede so wasn’t really receptive to it. Then she gradually filtered through to me. Homogenic won out over Vespertine because of a few songs, like ‘Jóga’. It’s so beautiful, so atmospheric. There are few people that I actually listen to and am not a little disappointed by, or think I could do that. With her, it’s, ‘Woah.’ She’s one of those people who make music that I actually marvel at, I really do. She’s incredibly talented. For me she’s one of the few modern artists who are actually up there with the all-time greats. The music industry has to say that all these people are comparable to so and so, but she really is. Something like Biophilia suits her and suits her music. The music is intelligent for a start, but that really suits her sense of vision.
