Bic Runga's uniquely phrased pop songs and hauntingly beautiful melodies have already earned her a special place in the pantheon of New Zealand song. Her third album Birds was released in New Zealand in November and is her third consecutive number 1 album, already achieving multi-platinum status like its predecessors. Female singer songwriters dominated the charts in 2005 with the overnight success of KT Tunstall, Katie Melua's outstanding record sales and the long overdue return of Kate Bush. Bic Runga might well be the success story of 2006, her first two albums received huge critical acclaim in the UK and her last album Beautiful Collision was hailed as one of the best albums of the year in Mojo and Uncut in their end of year round ups as did Sunday Times Culture in 2004.

That's great since I missed her at The Tunnels recently. Remove one CD from the DJ box though!
