Bohren & Der club of gore - Dolores

I've been listening to a lot of Celtic Woman lately, both the group and the individuals' solo works. I'm particularly liking Hayley Westenra at the moment, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oewp-s_4wZQ

Mervi, do you know the Mediæval bæbes or Miranda sex garden? Both have Celtic influences (although MSG is more madrigal-oriented, especially on their first a-capella album).

No, I'd never heard about them. Thanks for the tips, joost!

I love Spotify! I found The original motion picture soundtrack for Disney's the Lion King... in Finnish! I still know the lyrics by heart. *is thirteen* My best friend and I were obsessed with this movie, and we both bought the soundtrack CDs - one in English and the other in Finnish so we could make copies for each other (c cassettes ) - mine was the original and so it's been ages since I've listened to the translation. Oh the golden days!
