Fixed.

I love the ending, it's totally unexpected, lol.

Cosmogony is too Volta-ish, IMO. I like it though. The lyrics are great.

Björk is my only love... the only person that makes life worth living.

And it's great to hear that someone else has just discovered Björk!

I like making new discoveries in music, like finding out about weird new bands... although today I just found out that a singer i like called Lhasa de Sela died in 2010 from breast cancer, i couldn't believe it!

I really really enjoy her song "Army of me," but can't seem to find any song similar to it. Anyone have suggestions?

I absolutely love Vespertine I have also listened to Homogenic and I look forward to listening to Début. She is so original and that's great

My brother and sister were crazy about her many years ago. I was in primary school and I hated her.
