I first got this a long time ago (on Audio Galaxy) and probably would never ever have heard it if not for the fact that it was released on Luaka Bop. It's always been one of my favorite albums, and ten years after it was released it still sounds remarkably fresh to my ears. The arrangements are way more complex and inventive than any other trip-hop records I've heard and of course her voice is fantastic. I have no idea how it went so totally unnoticed: for some reason it seems to have flown way, way beneath most peoples' radar, but as far as I'm concerned it's a total classic. And her cover of "Black Hole Sun" is great.

Great album, haven't listened to it in years but I should dig it out again. Her two numbers on Moby's Everything is Wrong from a couple of years previously shouldn't be ignored either, esp. "When It's Cold I Want to Die."

it's dicussed a tiny bit here: Remember HUGO LARGO?
didn't love all of it, but 'Clues of You' and 'Fire and Roses' are as classic as it gets, those are two beautiful songs
