You know, I've had this cd for a year or so (bought it around this time last year) and I'm really liking it now... for some strange reason I played it the other day for the first time in months and really enjoyed it... it's weird how that works, you don't even look at a cd for ages, then all of a sudden you listen and it blows your mind... maybe in this case it's because of the snow here... it recently snowed, and well this album just seems to fit with winter, so anyways... yeah, I like it now!! :)

Good record. I put in Gary Numan's the pleasure principle a few days ago, and it knocked my socks off. :)

Bjork is super coool, vespertine is tops. I listen to it a lot. I love the songs Hidden Place and Pagan Poetry (sounds a lot like orbital at the beggining.... In Sides... to be specific..)
It makes me feel very warm, fuzzy and hopefull

Can't believe Aurora hasn't got a mention! That chorus is the one of the most enchanting things I've ever heard! Everything else is okay, just a little too samey towards the end. Love the lyrics as well, especially the first 3 tracks.

yes.. vespertine was made for snowy weather.. (she's even said this herself)
i've listened to it driving to school in the morning two days in a row now
you're right though, xammax.. there are a few lame tracks towards the end.. the ones between an echo and a stain and unison (which are both great)
but she seems to do that on all her albums

ah yes this is the most beautiful album i know of. bjork's voice can be hard to listen to from time to time but on this record it's bliss. i especially love the last track.

frosti - the one that's just a music box. anyone that can compose a tune like that is super talented.

nooo though the theremin is also a box that makes music... they're completely different..
when i say music box i mean the old fashioned box that you have to crank..
they're usually used as decorations.. have little twirling ballerinas in them sometimes
