þórunn antonía - 'electrify my heartbeat'

You might recognise the name from the much lamented band 'Fields' - 4 parts British, 1 part Icelandic with a subtle blend of electronica - too subtle by far for Atlantic Records who cancelled their contract a few years back and precipitating the band's break-up. I'm really pleased to see that Þórunn is back in business. Musically, it plays safe with her radio-friendly voice and standard love song lyrics. The synthesiser really lifts it up above the common herd and somehow gives the voice an extra lift.
