As for the ballads, the best song on this record for me was the last. But it's not just the vulnerability that makes it so.

Yes, she plays around with a little bit of fronting in her songs so what? There is more than that to them as well, it's not all about the image.
Hmmm, watch her videos or that live gig linked from one of her fansites... She isn't as ICE COOL UBERSWEDISH as people are imagining her to be here at all. She actually seems very unafraid of cracking that perception and looking a touch ridiculous (like a silly human being) now & then.

Swedes speak English better than the English. I think she sounds 'American' half the time anyway ('don't be eating in my jacuzzi' etc. - that is such an Anerican thing to say arf).

Robyn, who the hell knew? "Show Me Love," ehh...I still can't enjoy that song today. I'm sure I can blame incessant 90s radio rotation for my hatred, but it's not as dreadful of a single as I remember.

so, i'm just hearing the album for the first time now, and...WOW. It's wonderful! Can I expect the Juliet album (which I just ordered) to be as good/interesting/danceable as this?

The moment that casio beat comes in! Great stuff.The other lady there, Jenny Wilson, had a pretty decent album out in 2005 too, including a great single, "Summertime - the roughest time", which is here (video)

the jlc remix of 'avalon' is ace but i am confused as to why juliet decided to be shirley manson of the 05 when she could have been glittery electrohouse diva. it sounds a bit like jlc's practice ideas for the madonna album.
