The Great Crossover Potential (1998) is a compilation album by Icelandic alternative rock band The Sugarcubes, five years after the group disbanded. It serves as a definitive collection of their most influential and memorable tracks, spanning their short but impactful career from 1986 to 1992. Fronted by the unmistakable voice of Björk, alongside Einar Örn’s eccentric spoken-word interjections, the band’s quirky, off-kilter pop songs gained international cult status. With standout tracks like “Birthday,” “Hit,” and “Regina,” this compilation captures The Sugarcubes’ unique blend of art rock, surreal lyricism, and Icelandic charm.
