I love the huge bass note at the end. And did anyone notice the balding brass player's braid in the front middle part of his forehead where he wasn't completely bald yet?
@ghostflowerashes66 her voice is so much more musical but she can actually make it smokey...love her...her rendition in iceland is same song but it says so much of her beautiful talent that the same song in reykjavik has such a distinct character from this one..in her voice alone...she is very much in tune with her surroundings...
Such a catalyst of ideas and styles and dresses made from plastic bags.. I think, thanks to Vista and its' HD capability, that I had a glimpse of a rosy cheek.. If only it could pillow my head , my sleeping face would aerate tooth enamel.
i suggest you educate yourself and fix that flawed statement.. Love her or hate her.. Bjork is one of the most innovative and original artists of all time.
This is my all time favorite Bjork song. I've heard it one Monday evening, walking on a beach somewhere between Santa Cruz and Monterey. The sandy cliffs along the beach were glowing orange with sunset rays. Dozens of pelicans were barraging above Pacific and diving into it, exploding the surface with bursts of sunny drops. I was completely happy. Even the fact that I had parking ticket on return did not spoil the mood. Every time I hear this song I transport mentally into this magical moment
she has a potentially good voice and of course harmonizing saxes are going to sound good. but that doesnt mean that any of this song has anything to do with talent. there is no diffacult music being played or melodies being song. maybe when she says "drop" is the only line that some people couldnt sing. watch a true musician with true passion and true skill.. such as Van Morrison, John Mayer, Muse or Rodrigo y Gabriela.. since she made it there is hope for us all : )
This song happens to be one of her most simplest pieces, but most of her work has complex rhythms, wide-ranged melodies, unique orchestration, incredible vocal acrobatics, and vivid expression. Oh, and she composed the score for two films: Dancer in the Dark and Drawing Restraint 9.
Listen to her albums: Post, Homogenic, Debut, Medulla, Volta, and Vespertine...and THEN tell me what that she's not talented.

I could care less what John Mayers personal life is.. he is the greatest guitar player of our time.. just watch any of his life videos, i dont care who he is as a person. And most of peoples hit songs are not the bands best songs. If you want to talk originality and non generic Muse is one of the most original bands out there today.. If you watch John Mayer play guitar and sing while he plays complex guitar you would understand. I'm not talking about his cheesey love songs you hear on the radio
No way he's the greatest guitar player of our time. Listen to Derek Trucks or Kenny Wayne Shephard. They don't just rip off Hendrix and SRV all the time. They actually have an original style. All Mayer does is jerk off all over the guitar. Yes he can play fast, but I don't hear any sort of soul coming out of his guitar. Sad what passes for music these days. Oh yeah and his voice is like nails on a chalkboard.
greatest guitar player of our time? are you kidding? he is good, but I've seen 8 year olds that can wreck him. that was the dumbest comment i've heard in a long time.

I have yet to see anything other then originality from Bjork. I have showed countless amounts of people and there are tons of people who agree with me so im done with this arguement. I respect your guys opinion and im glad you guys have music you like. but i dont understand. I can listen to any music out there but i respect some more then others, and i have little respect for anything i have heard thus far from Bjork. Once you search Muse and John Myer live (like i did for Bjork) then tell me.
I actually like a lot of the artists you mentioned (i.e. John Mayer, Muse, etc.), so I don't understand how you can't respect someone beyond their caliber.
What have you listened to by Bjork, besides this song?
"Anchor Song" is the "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" of her songs, in comparison to the epic music that she's written music for full orchestras.
Bjork looks very hot in this gig I love this song as I also Live by the Ocean and its my home. Such a simple yet beautiful song which will always put a smile on my face
todos los ke firman aca son idiotas o ke mierdaaa si no les gusta bjork no firmen putoss giless silicona las pelotass!!!! escuchen la musicaa mediocresss
I would like to answer to ragnarkisten .I really am sorry for my bad English.
That's not exactly a song, it's like a methaphore .Bjork is the hope of the music, the real cultured music: the brass make something like classic bachian contrapunctum -to make shure point of wiev, Bjork is the "anchor", with certainty the anchor is stopped in the Eart under the sea- to the voice, a real beautiful voice and the voice is reciting..
Everything is wrong with this artist. Her music is always unoriginal mainstream pop. She don't write her own music. It lacks artistic integrity. She always sings playback. She is ugly as hell. She have an awful singing voice. She acts strange. She doesn't seem to have anything she wants to say with her music. She is stuffed with silicone. She acts arrogant towards her fans. She have no political views. She is pretty stupid. She can't play any instrument. No, better to listen to Britney Spears!

ragnarkisten you are a stupid you are amediocre person who likes listening cristina aguilera and when you listening the power of this ARTIST you thinks everything is wrong bu it is because you like the shit that everyone likes to hear you are a shameless UNO MAS DEL MONTON! MEDIOCRE
she loves the ocean she always has said it and not beach ocean but port ocean where the ships and docks are it's incredible to feel the passion through her song
The long and short of it is, resistance is futile, there is nothing quite like 'the Bjork'. Vers@ile too, I mean...how was she able to assimil@e Wimbledon for all those years back in the 70's...amazing!!

I think she is making those funny faces because she feels unconfortable... like she wants to pee so bad and she can't. No offense anybody is just a tough.
great song....I absolutely love the sort of vibrato she does around 1:55...makes me shiver sometimes. I think they should have played it a bit slower at times though
I love the huge bass note at the end. And did anyone notice the balding brass player's braid in the front middle part of his forehead where he wasn't completely bald yet?

Okay, I think we can all agree that John Mayer has lost ANY AND ALL credibility after he dated Jessica Simpson.
Plus, Muse's biggest hit was "Super Massive Black Hole," it really wasn't that hot at all.
