I think many people who once disliked Bjork are starting to gain that ear for her sound and style many years later. Originality is timeless and it is a sign that maturity has developed appreciation for a creative mind.
Just think of when we were all younger how courageous and fearless she was in her music at a young age. It takes someone who is fearless to express themselves the way she has.
at first , i was discusted with Bjork, i couldnt understand one damn word that came out of her mouth, but the more i listen to her i find the songs quite pretty acouple that i just absolutly love, still trying to get past all of her first verses its the corus that i fall in love with, im starting to get poetry ears or somethin its all starting to make sense. (o.O) :)
This is the first song i heard of Björk's and I LOVE it man! I never gave her a chance, i jsut wasn't interested in hearing her music.. But i was listening to "Hurt Me" by Kerli (<--- <3 THAT SONG) when i happened to find this one on youtube, and now im in looove with Björk!
Her music is so unique. To be honest, i find this song kind of.. Eerie.. But it gives me a rush of emotions and warmth haha (but i don't get all hysterical..)
Actually I dont literally practice throwing things outta a mountain but i do relate with the song! I always have moments of peace and tranquility be4 My partner awakens or gets home so that i can reflect and maintain a more peaceful vibration and allow or affection to be the most dominant part, instead of stressors and daily worries... Thats how i relate to the song!
I think she's talkin about removing all self doubt and her own stressors so that they dont interfere with her relationship... She's getting rid of the excess. Thats how i see it
i went out with a bird years ago who would come out with stuff like this when i'd wake up. at first i thought it was novel, after a while it just got to be a bit creepy
I think that this is about keeping herself up while dealing with a chaotic world, this strengthens her ability to be strong,it also has a feel of post pardon depression that a mother feels sometimes when taking care of her newborn, instead of crying and being negative with her infant.
i think that the lyrics of the song are talking about the fact that shes in a relationship with this guy that she really loves, and she is truly happy with him. so, every morning before he wakes up, she goes to the mountain and imagines herself being in the situation as if she were about to die, so when she gets home to him, she feels even more safe than she does normally, and obviously has more and more love for him...dhats just what i think =) =) =)
Interesting take. I think it's a song about the subject of self-confidence, and it's a mini journey about the way the person in the song deals with it.
I swear, the Hyperballad video with the top views has like...the worst sound quality, while this one has the better sound and only has about 22,830 views.
Bjork on youtube just sucks :\ She's best experienced with like a zillion sub-woofers or, better yet, headphones :) Hmmmm :) *my favorite artist of all time*
lyric is about her throwing things of a cliff, and she imagines that she throws herself off too, and wonders what it would sound like. "And when it lands, will my eyes be closed or open?" She has to go through all this, she says, before her mate wakes up. So she can be happier and feel safe again with him.
Possibly abusive/unhappy relationship? Her relationship with this person is so bad that she must contemplate suicide in order to go back to this person and feel able to be around him/her.
There is no "legitimate" reading of the song. That is YOUR reading of the song. It is a work of art, to be interpreted differently by this person than that person.
This is really the first time I've gotten negative ratings on a youtube comment O.o I am a hardcore Bjork fan and have been for over ten years. I'm sorry people are misunderstanding me (as well as the use of the term "legitimate," which just means "valid"). It was an interpretation I had encountered and simply wanted to share with fans. Hence the question mark at the end of the first sentence, inviting discussion ... not angry thumbs downs.
You should be careful how you type things. Beyond the first sentence, you sounded like you know everything. Anywho, if you really are a fan, you would know she has explained the meaning of the song herself. I would tell you, but where's the fun in that?
I recently had a dream that my brother was a cook in an expensive restaurant, and we were both in the kitchen. He had a bowl of fruit beside him, and half an avocado in each hand.
He was trying to tell me something in sign language, but I couldn't understand, because
1.) His avocados were hindering his ability to sign.
no kidding i mean i know im late to respond, but wow i just went through about 4 diff vids till i found this one, and what happened to that awesome live version with the percussionist with the afro, and all the violin babes. that was a good version too.
