Judy Collins had a beautiful voice, such a pure tone.
Diamanda Galas

hahaha.
i used to play diamanda's plague mass on repeat on halloween to try to scare the kids.
or throbbing gristle played loud.
creates a mood, that stuff does.
That's beautiful lol, yes indeed it does!
You could add to that lineup, Elend... Stalaggh... that one Fantomas album...
When I was a kid I had a whole collection of those Halloween spooky sound effects tapes... Rattling chains, squeaking floorboards, whistling wind, Frankenstein groans. Now as an adult I pretty much make that music.
Milla Jovovich - It's Your Life
https://youtu.be/rdXsjFRQA6g
I didn't know Milla Jovovich was a singer as well. Nice.
I actually saw Milla in concert back in the summer of 1994 at the Pompano Beach Ampitheater, an outdoor venue here in South Florida. She was the opening act for The Crash Test Dummies.
Like many South Florida evenings, we had a rain shower. Milla, being the trooper that she was, did her entire show.
The Crash Test Dummies on the other hand played one song and quit, stating it was too dangerous to continue.
The next day I went to the record store where I bought my concert ticket to get a refund.
After doing so, I then bought Milla's cd, The Divine Comedy, which I liked a lot. It's Your Life is definitely my favorite song on it.
i really like the carpenters. guess i'm a wimp.
goodbye to love:

Kría Brekkan
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chFmFpTc21s
do you have the right link for your third track? it goes to something called 'mum - finally we are no one.' looks like some kink of instrumental post-rock business?
i listened to the longet & the first song on the bunyan record & dug them both a lot. i've bookmarked that bunyan album, & will definitely give it a full listen.
Yeah Kría was the vocalist for múm. She's done some solo records too, that I still haven't checked out, both as Kría Brekkan and more recently using her given name, Kristín Anna (Valtýsdóttir). I used to listen to múm a lot back in the day. I should probably fix having slept on her more recent stuff soon.
shareah, ok. i couldn't listen to that track, anyway - blocked in my territory, it seems. but i'll see if it's posted in a yt vid available here.
