BJÖRK´S “MEDULLÁ”!!!
...but you really got to give it some time...it’s - kind of - strange at first :)
Furthermore with this album you really want to look back at her career and listen to the brilliant masterpieces (i.e. Post & Vespertine) again and again!
Anyway, now I¨ve really come to understand that you either love or hate this Icelandic princess!

Moby’s “18” is pretty cool. It has, wait for it!, 18 songs of pure beauty. They are all such tender, delicate songs. It also has some of the most beautiful instrumental songs I’ve ever heard...

By the way, I’ve been keeping track on that new Bjork album. Considering the lack of promotion, well...
#1 France
#1 Hong Kong
#2 Sweden
#2 Italy
#2 Denmark
#3 Norway
#3 Switzerland
#4 Finland
#4 Belgium (Flanders)
#5 Germany
#6 Spain
#6 Canada
#9 UK
#9 Mexico
#13 Czech Republic
#14 America
#17 Australia
#20 Netherlands
#22 Ireland
#39 New Zealand
I think it’s done alright!
By the way, I have resources with conflicting information. One source says the album got to #2 in Sweden, another say #7. Does anyone have a link to the official Swedish album chart?
And rumour has it that Medulla has sold 600,000+ copies worldwide in 1 week...

mine is a wonderful new album by a group called ’fried’ the album is called ’fried’ aswell.
Fried is one of the most accomplished mixes of soul/funk and R&B and pop. The result of a five year search by former Fine Young Cannibals songwriter David Steele to find the perfect singer, Fried combines Steele’s production talents with that of 23-year old New Orleans gospel singer Jonte Short. She has a wonderful voice and i just admire gospel music so much.
Opening track and first single “If You Get Out Of Jail” swings with a deep bass hook, while strings proceed.
Album hi lights ’sugar water days’ and ’whenever i choose i lose’
