I bought her first album, Love in the Time of Science, even if it was a poor rip-off of Bjork, after seeing the video to "Unemployed in the Summertime" and thinking she was fit. Second album was a dull folky affair. Judging by the first single off the album on MySpace, she's gone back towards that Bjorky sound again. I didn't know that she was still around. She's still fit.
A dead on assessment imho. That song on the first cd that starts "Scatterbarined/ Crying in the rain" was pop greatness. Then she, like The Killers on their second cd, tried to go Americana. don't.
Most people I have met from that way in the past have been as mad as hatters. Seems to be something in the Scandinavian psyche. Emiliana Torrini is half Italian so you'd think that she'd be a bit more sane. Actually, thinking about it, Italians are nuts as well. Not a great combination then.
