If you look at the names, you'll see that N'dea Davenport of Brand New Heavies collaborated on this album. In any case, it is far from the first time Bjork has done dance music. On Ex:el, she sings on oops and on another track.. hmmm oh ya, qmart. She also did something with New Order (funny, Bernard Sumner is also on an 808 State track on this same album). BTW, is this the best ever imitation of Bjork or does she sings on the Mars bar tv pub with the mountain bikes?

If only disco had used cool electronic sounds. But then again, good thing they didn' t as we'd be hearing cheesy presets now instead of the other way around...
