I've not heard that before (think I'm getting old - pretty much couldn't name a single song in the top 40). I like quite a few Mark Ronson songs. The one I've heard loads recently, also has an 80s vibe (though with Boy George on it that was inevitable).

so I like this song but everything I hear about her is just not positive, does it put you off music if the person who makes it is not likeable?

 

Also, not liking that Bjork has released her album two weeks early on iTunes when I do not have iTunes. Grrr.

Honestly, if I would have to pick my music based on personal lives or agendas of the artist that has created it, I'd probably had to delete about half of my library. I only care about an artist on a personal level if he/she seems like a cool person and writes some thoughtful lyrics that I can identify with. Like Devin Townsend:

 

BTW. I have no idea who that chick is but the song is pretty neat.

They're trying to style her as the new Mariah Carey (like she can be replaced), but seems like all she has down so far is the diva from hell attitude. only photos and interviews from one side, keeping people waiting, being very ungrateful about fans etc.

 

Like at least make yourself irreplaceable before you start with the attitude that makes people want to replace you.

Didn't she release it early because it leaked?

 

Sounds like you could 'acquire' the album from somewhere and then purchase legitimately at the first opportunity. ;)

 

 

It's on Google Play Music. Isn't it on like every major download service?

On Google Play Vulnicura doesn't turn up any results and when I search for her and look at her releases it doesn't show up. Amazon has it available as import on cd and vinyl, pre-order of uk cd version for march and no download version. Guessing it's only out in usa at the moment. I don't think technology is sufficiently advanced to hide it only from me to frustrate me.

Ah, so this is the sort of thing RPS gets mad about. Perhaps there's just a different set of laws that prevent albums from instantly going up in the UK? I guess there is that new tax to deal with now on top of whatever copyright stuff there is.

Google deals with VAT directly, and copyright hasn't changed for a single artist so neither of those will be issues. Likely just choices of regional distribution, especially given we're currently all enraptured by Uptown Funk, delaying a week or two could help better success in the charts.
