The round is closing soon so be sure to vote if you haven't. 
Also be sure to avoid Megan Trainor, if you haven't.
I tried to do this yesterday, but I only made it two songs in on Post. Lol

Just when I thought the new 5H praise was alarming now we got Megham stanning too? Whew some cleansing needs to be done.

I'll try again tbh
Yeah, you definitely should. I went from liking certain Bjork songs to listening to Debut and it suddenly clicking and hitting me like a wave of feels. You should really give her a shot. Her more experimental work isn't really something that's a "casual" listening experience. But I think you'd think a lot of songs from Debut, Post, and Homogenic.
I'd say her most easily appreciated songs from those 3 albums would be:
Human Behavior
Crying
One Day
Come to Me
---
Army of Me
Hyperballad
Possibly Maybe
Isobel
---
Hunter
Joga
Bachelorette
All is Full of Love
Plus, her voice isn't used in a very traditional pop sense. She'll swing from incoherent ramblings, child-like innocence, then suddenly to full belted notes, sometimes affected with some phlegmatic grunts and yelps.
Early Mariah is 90s RnB, Adult Contemporary, Occasional Pop Uptempo. If you want bops, you'd have to go into her dance remixes like:
Fantasy (def club mix)
Honey (Classic Mix)
Anytime You Need A Friend (C&C Mix)
et al.

Same here. Used to think she sounded like absolute nonsense whenever I heard one of her songs so I never gave her the time.
But I listened to Vespertine one night in winter and suddenly it just clicked with me. Vespertine is an amazingly gorgeous album and will always be my fav by her.

Katy versus Taylor versus Carly versus Bjork. Who made it out alive?
RESULTS:
WINNERS - E-MO-TION (Carly Rae Jepsen), HOMOGENIC (Bjork)
ELIMINATED - TEENAGE DREAM (Katy Perry), 1989 (Taylor Swift)
E-MO-TION took the cake here by a landslide. 75% of you had that as one of your choices.
E-MO-TION and HOMOGENIC move up to round 2. We'll revisit them soon. BRACKET E COMING UP SHORTLY!

I refuse to believe that there's 37 people on Earth, let alone in this thread, that like Bjork.

ELDORADO - Ro James
6 songs in and I'm loving it. It's like a mix of Prince, Miguel, and ANTi-Rhat.
I came to endorse this post.
