Since the video and the single for The Knife's most anticipated come-back single "Full Of Fire" was finally released today I thought it'd b a good opportunity to dedicate the next of my lists to the ultra-talented Swedish siblings and all their recordings so far. Here's my very subjective selection of some of their finest musical moments so far...

+ a very special bonus: "Let My Shoes Lead Me Forward (The Knife Remix)" - Jenny Wilson - one of those rather rare occasions when Karin and Olof provided a remix treatment for another artist... Truly magical...
