Nina Simone, too.
She is definitely in the mix. Probably more than once.
Everyone's getting spanked but me.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

The end credit sequence of David Lynch's Inland Empire is a totally unrelated scene of cast and crew having a fabulous time grooving to that song. After what came before, it somehow became the most uplifting thing I've ever seen David Lynch pull off. So random and so great. I don't know what she would have thought of the rest of the movie (which is the most difficult thing Lynch has done since Eraserhead) but that end credit sequence was like a joyous random video of its own. I think she might have grooved on it.

Shrift! S-K, Belle and Sebastian, Bjork and the Decembrists all dropped albums on the same day! Music frenzy!

As someone who has only ever tangentially listened to Björk, what are the essential Björk/Sugarcubes albums?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I think Bjork's album Debut is the best place to start.
There's really only the one Sugarcubes album worth owning, I think, but it is good.
