Björk - Crystalline

[autumnskies15]

Can I download a high-quality version of this anywhere? The one I got from 'biophilia' is in a different key and I just prefer this one.

[chubetoz0r]

Oh wow, what a beautiful and relaxing song n_n ... 4:17 OH MY GOD WHAT IS THIS I DONT EVEN

[emiliowong]

48 PEOPLE COULD OBVIOUSLY NOT BECOME A SPARKLE FOR NOT CONQUERING ANXIETY!!

[Moossyb]

Drum 'n' Björk

[StopAgainstYou]

SVP ! do you know some thing like or different from Bjork.. i know her for a long time, but search some break-core like this song specially; but not necessarily like the 45 seconds before the end.(sorry for my english im french) :) so can u suggest some songs ? thx

[StopAgainstYou]

@StopAgainstYou not necessarily so speed for the breakcore, id rather kind of sound like Bjork - Show Me Forgiveness (Antizone remix) (found on youtube)

but its a remix as u can see..

"slower break core" :s

[Soooooooooooonicable]

She reminds me of Fever Ray. A lot.

[Helaw0lf]

I like this version over the other one where the drum roll kicks in.

[KarumSan]

The end sounds like IDM to me..

me gusta ovo

[nhkid1010]

@KarumSan does breakcore qualify as IDM

[FtizwilliamDarcy]

that is break-core, please, every time you say this is dnb a cow gets lepra.

[RetinalDamage]

fkn hell this song is amazing.

[metalheadforjesus1]

This is my favorite song off of this cd.

[marblesaresexy]

Loved her since I was 12.

[zporobija]

Somebody at last has invented the music of this century. And the drum player is simply fabulous.

[EnergyOM]

It's the sparkle you become

When you conquer anxiety

Sparkle you become

Conquer anxiety

Sparkle you become

When you conquer anxiety

It's the sparkle you become

When you conquer anxiety

[fellini1973691]

Ill say it again...THIS SONG SUCKS! Sucks balls! in NO WAY is this a good song!

[RedVynil]

@fellini1973691 There's always, "Gimmie Three Steps" and "Free Bird"!

[xxiRapeZombiezxx]

@fellini1973691 Oh shit he used caps locks shit just got real lol

silly ignorant people

[phillywilly01]

Anyone remember the Suger Cubes!

[mms7881]

@phillywilly01 I remember the Sugar Cubes and K.U.K.L.

[RedVynil]

@phillywilly01 I thought she was in The Pixies!

[fellini1973691]

Yep...I will say it once again! This song SUCKS...You might as well put it up there with yoko ono screaming in an art gallery! This is NOT Music....Its a hilarious mixture of dumb beats and even dumber lyrics! And to everyone that has a problem with my comments....Go scratch!..

[Snookiiiii]

@fellini1973691 It's okay, people with your ignorance and undeveloped brain capacity don't reach comprehension with songs like and artists like Bjork. You should stick to Justin Bieber (: <3

[TyMan1229]

@fellini1973691 It take a lot of stupidity to go to a youtube video of a beloved artist and diss her. Bjork has changed the game quite a few times. You don't have to like her music but show some god damn respect. She's more talented than most artist today

[thatasiannfella]

appreciate the lyrics in the description

[FiendJesterChaos]

The end sounds like a collaboration between Bjork and Venetian Snares :D

[fellini1973691]

Amazing?? Good song?? this song is FUCKIN retarded! and so is everyone that likes it!

[guiri04]

@fellini1973691 You sir / lady must like Justin Bieber....

[musicalrevo]

@fellini1973691

.....if you don't like it, go listen to whatever you listen to. the search bar's just above the video.

[oooooooohhhYEAH]

@fellini1973691 haha, you like R KELLY LOL HHAAAA

[Tobbe999999999999999]

wow interesting song, it starts in 11/8 and I thinks it changes to some other time signtures after that. First time i listen to björk but she sure makes interesting and unique music.

[TaliabelSoon]

Amazing!



[KRadoslav]

this track made current value...the god of dark dnb:)

[WaterLilyize]

why is this version in a higher pitch?

[magikarpp]

I love Bjork but in this one I just came for the last part, jizz coming outa my ears

[DJKaneHtownshuffler]

is she using a ReacTable?? I want to know the songs she uses the ReacTable in

[forgettingmyself12]

@DJKaneHtownshuffler Declare Independance... She uses reactable in Volta album

[michaeldupe]

The end is the Winstons "Amen brother" break. Used in 80% of all drum and bass, jungle and loads of other recordings.

[DeActraiser]

@michaeldupe there are many other samples, actually. That open hihat and most of the snares in there are not from the amen break.

[Merrybearsky]

Pure celestial goodness. Her music is truly the sound of things not seen. A genius not of this world. Few appreciate her much less comprehend the meaning within not just the lyrics but the all encompassing sound that penetrates the very soul. Outstanding!

[firebug089]

@Merrybearsky Amazingly said.

[walteredstates]

@Merrybearsky

F***n well put.

A national treasure she is. No: An Universial Treasure, of course.

[nadiabear12]

@Merrybearsky That was best comment ive ever read. I dont know if its just me...i like to skim comments of videos i like. And i came across this one first obviously. and It was an AMAZING definition of this song. Just sayin' well described ol' chap!

[unluckynumbersleven]

To ANYONE who calls the end dubstep. You're purely wrong. Also to those calling the younger generation certain vulgarities resuming that. Your wrong. I'm 16 and that's obviously not dubstep. So, just because someone doesn't know something doesn't mean you need to get angry at the keyboard. Anyone can do that.

[DefensiveOffender]

@unluckynumbersleven You sir, have won the internet for being awesome.

[unluckynumbersleven]

@DefensiveOffender YAY! I've always wanted to own the internet! Also, i meant for assuming, though you probably figured that out(Android spellcheck).

[naticio]

damn Bjork!! you did it again!!

[Lunabeam1]

Bjork is getting stranger and stranger every day. And yet she is so awesome.

[sikretvajlens]

pure amazingness.

[tarnoc]

....weird -_-

[judebull59]

breakcore

[sarahivr]

Alguien sabe como se llama esta versión de crystalline?

[sanbi79]

Can someone tell me what are the instrument

[sasukexisxgay]

The end part is more like breakbeat or IDM o.o I love it

[DaBushCaptain]

this was amazing on jools holland!!! great work

[rorymorris1]

cool picture of Bjork

[BitchesBCrazyRight]

this is hardly a drum n bass track. this is something else, with a bit of drum n bass at the end

[jaretthale78]

maybe a couple more listens to this album...I'm not entirely sure what to think.

[iDrouIT]

Me deprime que Justin Bieber es más reconozido, cuando ni siquiera le llega a los talones de Bjork. Solo los de buen sentido musical conocen a Bjork. *-*

[mijofrank]

Mama had a baby and at 4:18 its head popped off.

[Lrrrrrrrr]

First time I listened to this song and the part at 4:17 I went so fucking mental! It comes so abrupt jet so fucking good!

[am21en]

CHRIST!! those 40 seconds of jungle have rocketed bjork into my most respected

[ekovzy]

Who the fuck give a damn what it is when it's Bjork and it's good music. Drawers are for closed minded people... others listien to Music and don't care about what genre it is. yay

[RapidPandazs]

@ekovzy Completely agree. I cant stand it when people close them self's off to one or two genres of music. There is sooooo many wonderful genres out there! Sheesh

[Isetom]

Yes, her voice is higher in this video.

[irina1296]

The Queen of Originality

[ismellmooses123]

The breakcore at the end... OH MY GOD.

[WaterLilyize]

this version sounds different to the album version? it sounds higher or something lol

[julianabct]

@WaterLilyize i think that too, something is different in this version

[dimis485]

i downloaded it a month ago on ipad so far i listened to it once downloaded the app too never played it i m neither a hardcore fan nor a hater i have fond memories of hers from the mid to late 90s but i find this new lp UNLISTENABLE do you really like this stuff or do you feel culturally obliged to say so? sorry for the harsh attitude i do respect her a lot as an artist but there is a very thin line between avant guard and noise.

[valaurwen]

@dimis485

Then Bjork's growth is simply not for you. You can not expect a thorough artist to grow in any sort of fashion other than that which suits whatever their own style happens to synchronously be. Do not expect to always understand everything that you experience.

[gatheringleaves]

@dimis485

This is definitely not just noise, this actually is one of the best Bjork songs I've ever heard, I can't believe your so dullwitted to consider it unlistenable, I listen to these songs almost every day. Culturally Obliged? Are you mentally ill or something, Bjork isn't even close to mainstream, atleast in the states, but I still love her music

[EpicTomato]

holy fuck, didn't expect to hear breakcore in here. awesome track.

[xXHoodiexNinjaXx]

Shes.So.Colorful. :D

[musicforpeople]

To the kids saying this is "dub-step"...you obviously just got into the game. There's a thing called "drum and bass" that's been murdering speakers for years.

[kibijit]

@musicforpeople It's not even D&B, it's technically Breakcore, which is like the horrifically deformed child of D&B when in it's purest form.

[conquistadorben]

@musicforpeople well to be fair, the album was co-produced by 16bit

[mariannetheboy]

@musicforpeople actually it's breakcore, not dubstep or drum n bass

[OogieBoogieFan]

@mariannetheboy obviously, (s)he didn't say that "drum and bass" was a genre, (s)he just meant that drum and bass was the instruments used. (S)He didn't say that it was dubstep either. Also, all these millions of subgenres is really bothering me, what's wrong with just calling this music?

[Tudy86]

@musicforpeople dnb it's only the last part , the rest is....idk....something nice (but not dubstep) :)

[OrGurfinkel]

@Tudy86

The last part isnt DnB  ! Its Breakcore !!!!

[schuppenklaus]

@musicforpeople in fact its more breakcore or noize...

[RedVynil]

@musicforpeople Get yourself a copy of the first Klaatu album. The tail end of the last song, "Little Neutrino" will rattle the windows on your neighbors' houses when played very loud on a set of even half decent sub-woofers.

Another song that ends like this Bjork song is, "No Sympathy" by Super Furry Animals from the "Rings Around The World" album.

[brownfield]

@musicforpeople the kids that say this is dubstep can't murder speakers with that dubstep because that's all midrange "bass." DNB and real dubstep murder speakers.

[Allglory2deHYPNOtoad]

who produced this? Awesome crazy weird!

[EpicTomato]

@Allglory2deHYPNOtoad 16bit

[amexthyst]

Had a dream about the inside of the earth... exactly like how she described. Still need to conquer anxiety and claustrophobia though!

[3ll3qpEllE]

This music is what i see as original music. Think of what man had as tools at the begining. it was simple yet hypnotic as this. I just see hear voice as the guide in this music.

[HinaaaaHinaaaa]

She has such a unique voice.

[millty345]

speechless!

[megaman61293]

End of this song= Bjorkstep??

[calumisdead]

@megaman61293 No.

[Jadasan]

LOVE!<3

[sidgurl21]

why is she so brilliant?!!! I wanna have your baby bjork!!

[cdkrecords]

of course, Björk is the best

[AdderSIG]

Wrong pitch.

[TheCadiford]

love Björk ! and the end of this song is fucking awesome dnb heaven!!!

[OMFGItsJadeyCakes]

I'm choreographing a bellydance to this. ^.^ The drum part at the end is PERFECT.

[eyecon11]

fuck in amaz ing

[THATguyLOZA]

shes very unique

[OllieEvansartist]

she looks pretty hot in that picture lol

[TheStoryofaGamer]

I love Björk

that voice gets the most in-mast

[MasterMorty]

the pitch is annoying me >:(

[2ndnickthegreek992]

Δεν έχω ιδέα ποιος είναι ακριβώς ο λόγος, αλλά το τραγούδι γαμάει.

[karagkiozis1821]

@2ndnickthegreek992 Συμφωνώ.Και ούτε καν ακούω αλτέρνατιβ...

[MrDaale]

Underneath our feet

Crystals grow like plants

Listen how they grow

I'm blinded by the lights

Listen how they grow

In the core of the Earth

Listen how they glow

[dewy24swfc]

awfull :(



[shonenphilosophy]

DAT OUTRO

[kyleclef]

this song is so amazing to listen to whilecompleteely drunk. honestly.

[4EvaRoses]

I wasn't expecting to see dislikes ¬.¬ Stupid people.

[NiallGmusic1]

This is so good I nearly shat myself

[MrTillTechnology]

4:20

[thisisnotzimbabwe]

What a piece of shit!



[rorekel]

@thisisnotzimbabwe Prepare for trolls XD

[dogbono166]

@thisisnotzimbabwe

Do you still kill bulls in your country? Is that because there is a bull shit in every corner of your shit hole town?

[thisisnotzimbabwe]

@dogbono166 I am more in favour of killing assholes than bulls. After all, the poor animals do not write nonsense in YouTube. A warm hug from Spain, dogbono!

[MrDaale]

@thisisnotzimbabwe Your music taste is grossly stunted if you think this is shit.

[thisisnotzimbabwe]

@MrDaale Am I really the only one that does not like this song? I really meant that, I did not write it to be provocative. I am quite open minded an enjoy many styles in terms of music.

[johndjh]

@thisisnotzimbabwe Listen to the live version she did on Jools Holland a few days ago, much much better in my opinion with the full choir. Plus her hair is wild

[FrAnKWGS]

MAD BREAKS

[davidvillaverde]

min 4.20 crazy!

[rudycorona1]

her vocals are killer on this song!

[TheRaldow]

Saw this on Later Live with Jools Holland yesterday. A very curious woman, much like this song. I would quite like to meet her.

[NistleDC1]

If you like the ending check out Noisia! :)

[MrStijl]

SHIT THE ABSOLUTE BEAD :D bjork you amazing woman.

[c1ubbin]

Sooo much (unexpected) love for this!! <3

[roccie]

Oh my god. I have always loved her work. But thus was excellent. Watched her on Jools Holland and that last bit was well, wow

[Nightghost70]

Ahhh, love the unexpected drop at the end . Very cool! and Bjork looks very pretty in this pic :)

[karagkiozis1821]

Those chimes remind me of Chrono Trigger

[HyperHare]

@karagkiozis1821 OMG YOU KNOW THAT GAME TOO!!! Glad to finally see another CT fan on here!!

[Loonaticemonic]

21 people don't know what music is....

[whoisjaymon]

god i love this track. when i heard the jungle at the end for the first time i nearly shit myself with enjoyment :)

[Enriquez626]

Well.. Idk which button should I click... Awesome, but too weird for my ears...

[BlissBreathe]

Wspaniała jak zawsze, dziękuje pani za kolejną świetną piosenkę.

[bludrugo29]

sounds like a backward vinyl to me. I just dont like it.

[dmpguardiao]

que lixo

[RadSomething]

[AudioGardenSlave123]

comment

[MsSchwarzerrabe]

[MsSchwarzerrabe]

its wonderfull

[lunaticocacho]

17 Idiots dont know what music means!

[dskwqweqw]

@lunaticocacho Or they just don't like the song

[orangegreendaysuite]

I heard this on the radio. And it was a wonderful moment because I have never heard her on the radio before.

[TheMoonshinenight]

@orangegreendaysuite

That's amazing. I wish I could hear Homogenic / Vespertine stuff on the radio or this

[pomegranate1231]

she is wonderful!!!!

[Shelby3303]

When I first listened to this song, I thought she was saying 'Crystal Light' for way too long...

[bluecurls00]

4:17

[jc0503132]

Dope.

[MrTonyInchpractice]

@Filus1333 your comment is fine for people who don't understand english

[Xarpius94]

After listening to Radiohead for over a year I've decided to try to get into other artists. I've listened to a few songs by Bjork and the more I listen the more I like it but it's hard to get used to her voice. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks.

[TWIGGvsHESKEY]

@Xarpius94 lol..shes wierd.

[Xarpius94]

@TWIGGvsHESKEY Yes, maybe. But I want to check it out.

[Xarpius94]

@lewi91100 I am looking for accesible songs indeed! Could you help me out?

[lewi91100]

@Xarpius94

the Homogenic album is my fave. songs: joga, all neon like, pluto, bachelorette, all is full of love, actually pretty much the whole album.

vespertine is also good: undo, pagan poetry, hidden place, unison, its not up to you,

post: possibly maybe, hyperballad, army of me,

and some others: play dead, it's in our hands.

or ultra accessible lol:big time sensuality, its oh so quiet.

[1967haze]

@Xarpius94 Do not listen to the voice of her vocal cords, but the voice of her soul.

[Xarpius94]

@1967haze Got it!

[blackangel1323]

i feel like im in a zombie world
