I just think she's an inspiration, and a refreshment. It is so good to know there are actual people still left out there you can call musical "artists." In the U.S. especially we are getting too used to Pop musicians who might be able to "sing" but they don't write their own music, or lyrics. Their records are like an assembly line product, and that is exactly how the majority of it sounds like as well. It is just so funny because nowadays we have a lot of artists that are just shoved into the alternative or folk category like Joanna Newsom...About 14 years ago, Bjork was just coming out solo, and she was considered pop music at the time. I think if she had just debuted now there would be no way in hell she would be considered Pop. I just get really irked by how close minded music is now, and I can't even listen to the radio anymore...

i havent listened to the physical radio in years (not an exaggeration), but i don't agree that nowadays music is cookie cutter. with the advent of myspace, all sorts of bands and individuals who both should and shouldn't be doing music have popped up. i think it depends where you look, but if you keep looking at the mainstream media you'll only see the mainstream media, and you'll feel bored.
edit: i lied that is an exaggeration. cbc radio 2 nightly concerts.

I dig her. I have both of her albums, and I think she's quite brilliant and unique. Love her voice as well!
I'd really like to one day see her live.
