I am not a Beyonce fan…but the way that Björk collaborator Antony (Hegarty) And The Johnsons covered and turned this into their own song is amazing. Funny note, Björk thought that after listening to his music, that he was a “Black” woman…I’ll be honest, when I heard their collaborations and before I knew who the artist was, so did I…I also thought it was a English singer, not a group based in New York.
The manuscript Blue Lines is the fictional coming of age narrative of a young California woman Key Yemaya Walker, and her 2 year growing journey through school, love, and life period piece, written by Kenneth Suffern, Jr., taking place at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill between the years of 1997 – 1998. Loosely based on true events, and experiences during that time, told through the eyes and voice of the main female protagonist, a freshman first attending the school.
