Yes. I love her. Huge fan since Moloko.

my favourite

The woman is a goddess.....i love her. I love her voice, her music, and her sense of style is frikkin' exquisite.

Overpowered is my favourite album of the last few years.....the kind of cutting edge disco music madonna should be making. Ive seen her live a couple of times and shes a really magnetic, iconic performer - like she's taken the torch from Grace Jones and is carrying it forward.

One of my favourite all time Roisin songs is Through Time:

She recently left her label EMI after a disagreement, and is recording her next album right now, probably due out next year. She has a new single coming out this summer called Demon Lover, which will probably be part of an EP.

love her!

yay!! thanks for the links my drag daughter hooked me on her a couple days ago, i feel so behind.

Love 'Overpowered'.

Hey Eric!
Yes I've been loving Roisin since her days with Moloko! I wouldn't bother with her "Ruby Blue" album, but "Overpowered" is a killer!

Moloko released 4 records:

Do You Like My Tight Sweater?
I Am Not A Doctor
Things To Make & Do
Statues

Statues is probably the strongest of these albums - a really good album with great tracks like 'Familiar feeling', 'Cannot Contain This', 'Forever More' and the very Prince-like '100%'.

Things to Make & Do contains the classic 'The Time Is Now', 'Pure Pleasure Seeker' and is a pretty decent album. I Am Not A Doctore contains the other Moloko classic - 'Sing it Back', but the unmixed version. Both the early albums are really interesting and contain some great songs that she still performs to this day. All 4 albums are worth checking out, but Id start with Statues.

Ruby Blue is another cool record with some really strong cuts. Check out my personal favourite, 'Through Time', the amazing 'Sow Into You', 'If We're In Love', and the insane 'Ramalama'. It IS an album worth getting, but isnt as instant as 'Overpowered'.

I love Roisin and Moloko.

First owned album was Things to Make and Do and is still probably my favorite Moloko release. Do You Like My Tight Sweater? runs a close second.

Although my favorite Moloko song is "Forever More" and that's found on Statues.

Ruby Blue is an all-time favorite. It's such a beautiful and quirky album!

Really love the b-sides from Overpowered like "Sunshine".
