Spacepig Pig | 1473 comments Okie dokie so then, everyone's favourite Faroese singer next (OK, Sera's favourite), Eivør Pálsdóttir.

According to Wiki there is an absolute shed-load of albums to choose from, wonder why I have never heard of any of them?

Noms as ever close at 10 pm on Sunday evening, don't forget your youtube link, and remember to come back and vote next week.

Have a good one :-)

Lez | 7490 comments Oh dear. I often like Sera's choices but this lady left me cold (see what I did there?) I listened to 7 and actively disliked them. Sorry!

Sera69 | 1923 comments Know nothing about her. I heard Trollabundin somewhere and did a search. 16 albums? Let's nom her! Cold, chill Kate Bush, Bjorkish singer with plenty works in English but her Faroese folk is my favourite. For dark stormy nights and a glass or bottle or three of red, i feel.

Two interesting artists I knew nothing about in a row. That's what this game is about. 😀

Spacepig Pig | 1473 comments Nine noms then, and for an artist which appears to be a complete unknown to near all of us, I am going to call that a result!

3 votes each then, voting closes as ever 10 pm Thursday night, no late votes counted.

Here's the playlist:

It's anything but summer here just now, hope it's a bit drier wherever you are.

Spacepig Pig | 1473 comments Guess who crashed out on the couch again last night :-)

No doubt about about the winner this week then, far away and out of sight, Trollabundin puts Techy back atop the podium.

And after reinforcing the podium, second place leads to a worldwide shortage of silver with Val, Tim, Sera69 and theDuke all grabbing a gong.

Good to see nine voters for the nine noms. Way back in the mists of time, our originator Dragonlord suggested that this game could be used to get to know artists that we were unaware of. This has to be a perfect example of what he had in mind, if only he had made the journey with us :-(
