Made Reykjavík More Famous than Carmen Sandiego Ever Did

When looking back on the musical landscape of the past two decades the artists that were truly original and their own creative forces are few and far between. One artist stands out above the rest as a musician who has a voice and style all of her own. In honor of her new CD, Volta, which was released this month I thought a tribute was in order.

Björk

I have always been drawn to Björk's music for some reason. Her voice is incomparable to any that are in mainstream music. She first came to prominence with the greatly under appreciated Sugarcubes. From that springboard came solo success. Most notable was her eccentric musical style that didn't cater to one specific genre.

Along with her music, her videos became mainstays on MTV during the 90s. They showcased a creativity unlike most other artists of the time.

Some of her most notable videos:









Her newest single, "Earth Intruders", is very addicting and the video is equally enticing.

I thought that since I mentioned Carmen Sandiego, the least I could do is give a shout out to Rockapella. They were without a doubt the greatest house band on a game show based on a computer game.

Sadly this is the best video I could find. It doesn't show them but it has the best quality of the song.
