Songs of the year, number 16: FKA twigs - Cellophane

Both the song, and it's accompanying video, created a very definite stir upon their release earlier this year but, on a personal level, I mainly encountered the song without its video and learnt to appreciate its glacial understated minimalism. This is a complex piece of electro balladry, fresh for the 21st century, utterly new, and utterly devastating in both mood and execution.
