The great Hyperballad opinion poll of 2010
On Sunday night, Iceland's warbling wonder Bjork was presented with the Polar Music Prize by the King Of Sweden. You don't get that at the Brits, do you?
After she received a cheque for £80,000 (again - not what you'd take home from the BPI), Ms Godmundsdottir was made to sit through a Swesish singer "interpreting" a number from her back catalogue. Luckily, the singer in question was Robyn, and the song was the elegantly barmy Hyperballad. A "win" for all concerned.
But Robyn's not the first person to cover Hyperballad and the results have been, um... varied. Which is your favourite? Have a listen and vote below.
Robyn - Hyperballad
Whitley - Hyperballad
Dirty Projectors - Hyperballad
Some bloke on a guitar - Hyperballad
Bjork - Hyperballad
Hint: It is not the Dirty Projectors
