I do keep starting it up and catching my brain expecting to hear the Night of the Demon sample from "Hounds of Love" after that opening drum hit though

I know I wrote at least one (album review-disguised as) show preview, but can't find it---here's something from 2013 Pazz & Jop comments:

Avicii ft. Linnea Henricksson---"Hope There's Someone" is written by Antony Hegarty, and totally fits that credit, though Spin's Philip Sherburne says she (talent show winner) "affects a Bjork-like hush", but does B. hold-extend-bend notes like this? Anyway, works like Hegarty's usual aural curves, which she rides with her own sense of dynamics

I know in the review/preview I indicated that I thought he had a better voice than Bryan Ferry (somewhat similar but with a better vibrato, seemed like)

I heard his album and a friend's house and I said "Is this the new Tracy Chapman?"

Have never thought of this before and now can’t un-hear it.
