I'd never heard of her before so thought I would introduce you to her if you haven't either!

I wouldn't rank Emeli Sande along with Kate Bush, or with Bjork either.

[Grabid Rannies]

I bought her first single To Be Free years ago, don't recall hearing anything of her afterwards. It had what I presume was a 'trip-hop' beat and vocally and lyrically she was trying a bit too obviously to do a Bjork ("once in a house on a hill, a boy got angry...")

[SuperCheese]

I first heard of her when she did 'Gollum Song'... Such a haunting song.

I've loved her for years! Great artist, she has a lovely voice. Sort of like Bjork in tone but with less of the screeching and wailling, lol.

[Fear of Fours]

"Love in the Time of Science" is one of my all time favourite albums.

And this-beautiful slightly chilling track

I don't think they're 'ranking' Emeli with Bjork, or Kate Bush, simply stating that Emiliana has a bit of similarity to all three artists in certain ways.

I'm a big fan. I wouldn't really compare her to Bjork. The only similarity is they both from Iceland. I would put her more in the category of trip hop groups like Sneaker Pimps or Morcheeba. Her music is more electronic than Kate Bush who is more piano based.
