  • i just don't understand, why did her accent change from 1993 to now? she spoke much better english then.

  • @MUSICD94 Yeah, I've noticed that too. Someone know what's going on?

  • NIECH KTOŚ PRZETŁUMACZY NA POLSKI :)

  • Looking for people to add material (themselves) to my podcast. Check out my channel to find my webpage. You'll be completely anonymous... be brave and creative!

  • I always wonder how good it would be to have a musical family or band, where people communicate on levels that can't be seen, though felt...

    ...that would be proper communication!

    The environment is the key.

    I really could do with a constructive change of environment myself.

    Very different from my time at "Elmades", that was very clumsily 'afforded' to me by social services, by force.

    The ignorance of some systems make it plain to see that "we" still have some way to go, to make progress.

  • Why do people always compare her to madonna? Madonna, in my oppinion, is just another skank sell-out.

  • Bjork and Madanna are both awesome!

  • she' s got a beautiful fat ass!

  • @steliocockey  ... I think , it's not the problem here ^^ ...

  • well she is making "pop" music if you compare it to making "classical" music. and shouldn't all musicians be "experimenting" with music? if you don't give music any thought that is somewhat new, I think it kind of loses its right to be called "art"... it just becomes a staple, like potatoes

  • @ficsci i've always wondered that too. as a musician if you are not trying to push boundaries and discover new things then what exactly are you doing. being in music for the sole purpose of making hits and money is certainly not art

  • 3:48 Trance? Yummy

  • what is the instrument at 5:11?

  • @jadiius --- looks/sounds like a kora

  • bjork i ♥ u

  • OMG Björk is soo cute and I love her eyes! <3

  • She's beautifully unique.

  • she is so beautiful .

  • Does anyone know what the song at 5:00 being played by Toumani Diabate is?. I loves it..

  • do you know where can i find this video?

    is it in a dvd or somethinG?

  • i love these videos so much!

  • i need the names

  • what are the songs at 1:45 and 1:56?

  • songs from "volta"

  • she's even more beautiful now than ever. she has the most gorgeous mind :)

  • She's a sound/music artist.

    She takes the art of music and sound to a whole new level.

    She experiments and tries different things, different instruments. She also pours everything in her mind into it. It doesn't have to make sense for it to be art.

    You either get her or you don't.

    This is what makes Bjork so unique and wonderful as an artist.

  • This is what makes any artist an artist, be more specific.

  • Specific?

    I'm just talking about Bjork on Youtube.

    I'm not writing an essay here.

  • lol omg she is the cutest ever :) and her music is beautiful if not awesome!

  • she is the best period!!!!. Madonna wishes she could be as creative as she is. Bjork takes pop music where it should be....

  • ha ha ha trueee!!!

  • so true you got you #23 + :)

  • Couldn't have put it better myself

    @toonmama6

  • @toonmama6 i never thought of bjork's music as pop music. i think of it as experimental, or avant garde. she definitely was inspired by it, but she has her own unique style. that's what makes her so amazing.

  • @serpico89 yes she is experimental, and is an acquired taste, but in her own words in interviews her eon youtube.. she considers herself a pop musician! My opinion is she claims this because she is a musical interventionalist! I thinks its her duty to expand people's perception of music and open their ears to other emotions and human dimensions that are unexplored. You will see that she just keeps getting better.. I've also herd her say she considers her self a music scientist .

  • @toonmama6 i'm not saying i don't like bjork. i love her, she's one of my favorite female artists. when she says "pop" i think she's generalizing. but its always been experimental. "pop music" by definition is something w/ little merit and just has to be catchy, which is the opposite of bjork's work.

  • @toonmama6 that's a tremendous compliment to madonna to compare her to someone as eccentric and talented as bjork. you're right M does wish she was as creative as bjork becuase Madonna has GREAT TASTE!

  • How weird...Hhere she sounds like she's just learning English(rolling her r's and such), but I just watched an interview of her from the Vespertine era, and there's almost no trace of accent except for a British one she picked up from London. Odd.

  • Her accent flicks back when she's nervous.

  • @googledisher aww ♥ even if she's become an international star, she's always been humble.

  • bjork is one of the most creative, original and talented singers ever!

  • that makes it harder to empathize with her

  • is it my impression, or she get a little german accent?

  • Icelandic

  • That's how some of us Icelanders sound like when we talk english. :)

  • like the others saying. her accent is icelandic

  • I LOVE HER :)

  • I must marry her.

  • bealtiful woman!i love this shit!this music make me feel good

  • She's so kooky! I love her!

  • bjork is great

  • sad

    médulla was her best cd, and vespertine too

    and i saw her live and she never sounds so great live

    so clear

    so powerfull

    and gling glo was def. not her best singing

    vespertine was her best studio-singing

    and vespertine and volta was her best live-singing

  • Comment removed

  • omg bjork is SOOOO buff lol

  • I love the way she rolls her r's. - So sexy!

  • genius total genuis saw her at eletric picnic in 07 unreal!!

  • No... you'd have to be a moron not to love her!

  • does anyone know.....what is that keyboard/mixer called at 2:06? i want one.....

  • Its a sampler/beatmaker very common......Yamaha has a really cool one called the DJ XII & DJXIIB.

  • She should use a Korg Ms 20 and an original polymoog, those were some of the few truly great sounding synthesizers, the nowadays shit is for the masses.

  • its some sort of novation station, there arnt many so you could find it pretty easily

  • she probably does.. who could ignore a machine like that? :)

    I think she uses a waldorf wave too, the big one. funky.

  • novation remote sl, one of the best midi keyboards out there.

  • "Hallo, my name is Bjöörrrrrrk! We arre herrre doing photogrrraph!" Cutest, shit, ever!

  • OMFG! Soooo cute!

  • cuando el mundo este diriguido por las personas que tienen que estas mandando en este pequeñito mundito de ustedes las personas sin corazon vayan preparandoce porque sus mentes van a ser invadidas por los estraterrestres....

  • Comment removed

  • sorry that you don't understand it, you're missing out

  • if you think so, its sad

    i don't think shes cute or whatever

    for me she is a woman who makes the best music ever

    and no worry, at the beginning i thought she was terrible

    but now i love her music so much

  • i wonder if other artists put that much thought inot an album....i like the way she morphs intruments into the likes of the ocean ...its very inspiring and extrovert..i wished everyone understood this woman as i do

  • omg i just love her!

    i wish she will come to sweden some day..

    love u björk

  • Lovely

  • i love you bjork. that is all.

  • I used to be SO in love with everything Bjork did. I don't know what happened to me... or maybe it happened to her. I just don't get excited about her stuff anymore.

  • Oh this accent! How I adore it!

  • Beeyalkkkhhhh

  • aww I see all these lovely comments on Bjork :) That's so awesome.

  • love her

  • Oh you have gone and hurt her feelings that is

    so cruel, she probably won't sleep for a week

    NOT! LOL

  • Is she not love;y?

  • I agree, Bjork was always immortal to me. But like all of us she is aging-but she will never surrender her childlike innocence, and her elfen beauty.

    I didn't know she bites her nails! 2:15

  • She picks her nose, too, in other interviews.

  • ya but it cute

    ;]]

  • It's something she does when she's nervous.

  • Comment removed

  • I believe she is finally beginning to show her age, yet she seems more beautiful then ever.

  • I love her U.U

    i couldnt go to volta tour in chile

  • Bjork can sing better than she can talk in English. Strange.

  • she is unique...and different and it's make her so special and one of the kind

  • She is... very strange. In a good way.

  • This was a fantastic little glimpse into the mind of one of the most creative people on the planet. Thank you for posting.

  • iu think medullad was much better then volta. when i listen to medulla i get the feeling than each of the songs is so related, and a song doesnt make any sense without the rest of them from medulla. volta is different, i dont listen to all the songs in order, i skip like the last one and few other. usually i listen to earth intruders and declare independence and wanderlast

  • Comment removed

  • yeaah!!! i have my ticket for.. "V O L T A" tour!!!!!!! uuuuuuuuuuuuii!!!

  • im so glad that i'm following her Volta world tour...seeing her live is AMAZING and truly makes the album a more incredible listen!

  • Volta is nice to listen to, but live it sounds kind of confusing for me....

  • i agree,i do think Vespertine was better done live Medulla not so much, but Volta is a good album

  • I think the Volta tour has some of the best live arrangements for the songs ever. And the brass...damn. I like brass.

  • es tan tan tan tan tan pero tantan hermosa esa cantante, es especcctacularmente talentosa miau , y no se, se ve mas seria , no creen?

  • la neta si esta hermosisima!.... pero esta RE-LOCA! que no lo estoy enfatizando a ser malo... pero... ala madre! imaginate el vato que de verdad la entienda?! O.o Mis respetos...!

  • a partir del minuto 1:31 hasta el minuto 2:00 Se escucha la b-side GRIND

  • An amazing talent, and she seems like a real everyday person. I'm so glad she's a work-a-holic!!! She seems as excited to make this stuff as we are to enjoy it. Thanks for posting this!!!

  • Hon är så jäkla bra! Vill så gärna träffa henne!

  • Dahroom... Bjork is nice. I want to meet her.

  • she seem's to be a really cool person. i love the way she trills her r's and her eyes are beautiful.

  • she seems dead shy compared to all the other times ive seen her

  • I have a feeling that her next album will be exploring new acoustic and electronic instruments. I'd be willing to bet on that.

  • From all the hype about her, controversial or not, she seems so ordinary and down-to-earth...nothing like any other celebrity

  • oh she just looks so cute and shy...I love her! (L)

  • Bjork forever!!

  • she has all these differnt kinds of instruments that make the music, shes very creative indeed

  • TYUHRTUJTRJTRH

  • (sorry about the ä-s instead of '-s... the characters are next to each other, that's why I made those typos. hope you understood my meaning anyways ;))

  • (continues)

    At first I thought she had her icelandic accent in her earlier days and she lost it when living in UK but now it's 2007 and the accent is back again. It's not like Iäm complaining, I love her anyhow and I actually prefer the icelandic way of english... but I was just wondering :D Is she doing that on purpose or what gives?

  • It is very easy to pick up accents...kinda like if I talk to someone in the UK my accent like adapts? Does that make sense...kind of like I start talking like the way other people talk but if I talk to someone from Iceland it's as if the accent never left. I hope that makes some sense lol.

  • Yeah, I guess I understand... so you live in Iceland? What's it like? Have you seen Björk alive? Actually it's been my long-time desire to visit Iceland. And not beacause of Björk but because it seems so exotic and so different and so like nowhere else... :D you know? Heh, hard to explain, but this is definitely the country I must go to some day :)

  • This is so damn true lol! I know..it happens to everyone, I think!...

  • Isnät it weird that Björk has like various accents??? Sometimes she talks in her icelandic way, doing those harsh r-s, then she talks like a native british and then all of a sudden she's all so american... haven't you noticed?

  • She looks like a llittle girl...all smiles and giggles...but with such deep and amazing runs thru her

  • I love Bjork...She sooooooo hot

  • i used to like bjork i was a really big fan ...but the most resent stuff i dont like as much weather thats because i have changed or she has i dont know but i still thing most of her work is very good. Extremly creative, and artist she see's hardly any boundries .....hale to the ice smirf...the qween pixie of the teddy bears ...roflrofl..lol

  • she is really smart and well-spoken.......it's hard to believe she's in her forties.

  • is she the one nick carter is suppose to marry??

  • Comment removed

  • yeah shes the queen bee

  • i only started listening to Bjork but shes awesome!

  • i want to meet you somehow

  • Hmm...

    She speaks English MUCH better in Dancer in the Dark.

    I love her anyway~

    Yay, Bjork!

  • I LOVE BJORK!!!!!!

  • AAAAHHHHH  hahahahaha ,..oh god,.i love bjork ! !

  • Congratulations Volta is beauty... Wanderlust & Vertebrae by Vertebrae my favorites on album,

  • P.S. I am crying because this library computer does not have sound, so all I can do is look at the pretty pictures!!! :S

    I am SO ordering the Dvd. It will sit next to my Medúlla Dvd ;)

  • que venga al sueeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  • She´s a real artist.

  • I can't decide wether I prefer Medulla or Volta. Volta i s more energetic, but Medulla is magical! VOLTA is a pearl, a beautiful song, not well known, but wonderful!

  • Wow -- I totally agree. Medúlla is my fav album of all time, and was the first of Björk's music that I discovered for myself, forced to listen late at night with headphones (WHAT an experience, what a Björkhood).

    So I have always viewed her other albums as separate .. nothing comes close to the complete immersion of that album. I love the feeling that you're right inside her mouth.. you can hear every little spit bubble ;^P

    But Volta ... phew..! -- it sure is up there.

  • I wanted to write : "Vokuro is a preal, a beautiful song, not well known; but wonderful" (not Volta!)

    I keep listening to both Medulla and Volta... Volta is different and i'm enjoying it, more and more (Especialle the duets with Antony!)

  • Wow! Don't obsess too much, people. Love and respect her, don't try to knock on her door. She's great, I know.  Love to hear her methods, too.

  • TE AMO BJÖRK TE AMOOOOO

  • just for the fact that she worked with more french horns, my love has grown more her even more.

  • She is such a genius!!

    And she also soundtrack my life

  • I wish i could just have a conversation, is that too much to ask.

    Bjork you soundtrack my life and 'emotional landscape' (sorry i know how cheesy that is)

  • Joga is my fav song everrr!!!! "Emotional Landscapes" -- I can never dwell on that phrase for too long .. it is sooo.. perfect.

    You so do not sound cheesy!!

    Love

  • i like joga too. it's my favorite song and my favorite video

  • her talking voice sounds different to her singing voice...

    but i still love her music and concept to music...

  • With all of my natural loving musical soul, I am in awe of Bjork. John Lennon would have adored her. Her gift to the world cannot be understated. At 43 years of age, I find great inspiration with everything I consume of this wonderful individual.

  • I love her. Hee. The way she speaks is so delicate but sometimes it sounds like she could be from Brooklyn.

  • perfect

  • love this woman madly

  • Win a trip to the Airwaves Music Festival in Iceland to see her!!! milanrecords . com / contest

  • VIVA VOLTA

  • she knows!!

  • I love you Bjork!

  • I <i>love</i> how she rolls her 'r's.

  • awesome oida!!!!

  • herrr ahhh titties look kinda ahhh weirddd...yesss ahhh is ahh something. the one is ahh big and the otherrr one is ahh small yess...but nonetheless shes all good.

  • This is great, I will have to check out the album. I am already impressed, as always.

    :)

  • cool check her out in Screaming Masterpiece!! She's awesome in that one!

  • "in the moment" - awesome

  • I love your work, Top job on da nu music aaaiiiii

  • I could listen to those R's roll out of her mouth all day long..

  • lov bjork!

  • her icelandic accent has gotten stronger... you can even hear it on the album. i shall marry this woman someday , even though she'd probably rip out my hair, chew off my ear and spit it at me within the first week. All part of the appeal. And well put adshdsjf...

  • new album comes out in 1 hour!

  • she is totally different and she is amazing! i like some of her music not all... im not a huge fan but she has her own genre in the music world.

  • she has a very thick accent!!! where is she from? iceland? she pretty

  • Björk is an acquired taste. without some sense of what music is about you won't like her music. Björk does music for the people who know what music is all about. Sure some people may not like her music, but everyone should be able to appreciate what the woman is doing for the world of music. There is no greater innovator. Personally, shes my fave singer. And like someone said before, the true sound of nature. So so true ;o)

  • I've got tears in my eyes ~ you couldn't have said it any better, friend.

    "Björk does music for the people who know what music is all about."

    One thing I love about her is she makes me love music I wouldn't usually go near.

    She expands my tastes.

    I'll follow her to just about wherever her musical quest leads..

  • I LOVE ALL THESE COMMENTS>>>>

    GET READY GUYS YOU KNOW SHE HAS SO MUCH MUSIC TO SHARE WITH US IN THE YEARS TO COME...I VE LOVED BJORK EVER SINCE I WAS 12......AND MAN I ALWAYS KNEW THAT SHE WOULD EVOLVE IN TO THis GREAT MUSIC SCIENTIST THAT SHE IS. TODAY

    ... check out my page-full of interviews with the bjork....they are truly gems to me . peace

  • Funny accent... Beautiful person
