I like the Feist one best of the lot, so far. Most of these I will certainly give a few more listens to though, because I've been making my decisions about music far, far too hastily these days.

Haven't listened to all the Feist yet but what I have heard is ok, I guess. Have never listened to a Loney Dear track as of yet even amid all the blog hype. And never been crazy of Bjork. That Broken Records is excellent though, thanks for the intro! I personally love the Blonde Redhead been a fan a long time, I think if you give it a few more listens it will grow on you.

Blonde Redhead is fine and I hear they're good live but missed the show (last Friday in Atlanta). No real interest in the rest.

Maybe she takes a lot of getting used to? I do like the new Bjork songs I've heard, though...

Time may tell though, and I'll be sure to publish an apology if I change my mind. Well if you agreed with all my opinions, Marcy, there’d be no need to write your own blog ;-)
