I sense a general dislike of Bjork on this list, and, her being probably my favourite vocalist, I have to pause and wonder why? Is it for legitamate reasons, such as, you simply don't enjoy listening to her music, or is it for illigitemate reasons, such as, she's not "underground" enough for you, or, as the above statement suggests, she employs other people to help her with her producing? Not wanting to start a flame war, i'm just curious... Ali Lalani "When injustice becomes law... Resistance becomes duty." Some montreal protesters

For the record, I think Bjork is a really good musician, regardless of who or what she uses as her tools. She has beautiful voice, I mean ever since her Sugarcubes days I've totally liked her style. I watched, last night on Bravo, what I believe may be the same documentary several of you have been refering too. From what I saw in the program she and Mark Bell worked as a team on Homogenic, I'm not sure if it was 50/50 but she is definitely an accomplished musician, how about those string arrangements for "Joga"... By the way the machine in question is definitely in the Yamaha line, something after the QY20 with sampling capabilties circa 1997. Anyway if you haven't seen the docu it's an interesting watch...

Well, the fact that her "voice" sounds like the howls of a disfigured, mangled, dying cat sounds like a good place to start. - wells oliver / s0ewoliv@titan.vcu.edu

I watched the special too... I was impressed by their portrayal. I'm not quite the spotter as gonz though. Was that live material from the '95 tour? Looked kinda familiar. Guess you missed the bomber part...it was in there as well as the paparazi punch-out thing. Is that "five years" track released? nice distorto-beats there. I recorded it. I guess I could dub it for those curious... hopefully this won't kill me ;) Andrew larsonaj@muohio.edu
