What did you think of Björk's new 2007 album?

Volta or Vodka? :p

Haha, four to one says no-one's heard of him. :p

djr33's correct. http://www.bjork.com
She's Icelandic, was born in Reykjavík, Iceland on November 21, 1965 as Björk Guðmundsdóttir and is currently living in New York, NY. Her name literally means "birch tree." She has released 12 albums: Björk, Gling-Gló, Debut, Post, Homogenic, Selmasongs, Vespertine, Medúlla, Björk's Greatest Hits, Telegram, Drawing Restraint 9 and Volta. (finally got the time to whip out BabelMap)

Oh! Actually, now you mention her, I've read about her in passing somewhere I think... never actually heard any of her music, though.

If you want to hear some of her music, go here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bjork#Early_career) (right of page), get iTunes (http://www.itunes.com) and search for Bjork, or go to YouTube (http://www.youtube.com) and search for Bjork (http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Bjork&search=). I'd recommend the first two results (It's Oh So Quiet and Earth Intruders).

Never heard of her. But I just checked out 'Quiet'. It made me chuckle. In a good way. It's so like the Broadway tunes of old, including the choreography, yet with an intriguing modern twist.
