Description
"I saw Bat For Lashes last week and they are incredible" says Bjork. Other fans include Devendra Banhart, Jarvis Cocker and Thom Yorke (who says "I love the harpsichord and the sexual ghost voices and bowed saws. This song seems to come from the world of Grimm's fairytales, and I feel like a wolf.")
