Throughout the `90s, Bjork established herself as a sui generis solo artist, unswervingly following her own idiosyncratic path after stepping out from the sheltering umbrella of Icelandic alt-rock stars the Sugarcubes. With her almost-alien little-girl-lost vocals, unconventional song structures, and adventurous production that married electronica, rock, and orchestral traditions, she became one of the decade`s most striking artists. From the vantage point of 2002, after such classics as VESPERTINE have been unleashed on the world, a GREATEST HITS album certainly seems in order, even if Bjork is far from the kind of conventional singles artist that the title might imply. From the feather-light strings-and-beats bliss of "All is Full of Love" through such gems as the syncopated, danceable "Big Time Sensuality" on through to the captivating closer, the glitchtronica-kissed "It`s in Our Hands," we`re given a portrait of an inspired, mercurial artist and the unfettered flight of her celebrated muse.
