Bjork - Generous Palmstroke

[Oomka]

she is my light.

[EverybodyLovesMaria]

Gorgeous!!!!!!!!! I can't find words....

[1776Matthew]

This is absolute class. I feel she is making a big mistake by trying to keep her career going with all these absurd iPad gimmicks and silly costumes. The best thing about her music was always her ability to touch the soul. Yes, the originality and creativity was a HUGE part of the successful combination, but it cannot stand alone without the passion and intimacy. Especially when the need to always be "cutting edge" becomes an obsession and self-mockery.

[karelzich]

@1776Matthew I'm thinking similiar. just looking at this, comparing with crystalline and everything new plus the fact that she does definitely sing this good today, Im afraid the best days of bjork are gone.... haven't had the chance to use the apps, but it doesn't seem to me as enything spectacular.

[squidney1994]

She has the most beautiful charm. She has such a unique beautiful identity. I am in awe whenever I catch a breath of my Bjork.

[DavidVolta1]

mmmm bjork esa es un verdadera mujar me encanta ^^

[ArcadePerfect]

Such a powerfully, beautiful and emotive piece.

[edemardil]

Stop yelling at me everyone haha.

[nunnipoo]

lanis morisette and tori amos both sing unaccompanied or with an acoustic instrument so does thom yorke

[MazeleyFanClub]

LOL edemardil. I love Bjork, but come on, plenty of artists sing a capella. Just not the autotune trash artists of today.

[sokoli1988]

Bjork is poetry......

[amaxis23]

emotionalest

[inahiddenplace]

[Eztoez]

[oldnavyrum]

All her Riverside Church performances are unbelievable. I've only seen them on Youtube but I'd kill for a dvd of them. Anyone know if one was released ever?

[DaniloSuperStar]

@oldnavyrum i just found a video of 30 minutes of this presentation , but im not sure if its all the performance...and its in really bad quallity.

greetings from Chile :)

[inahiddenplace]

[oldnavyrum]

Cheers to DaniloSuperStar and inahiddenplace. The obvious question is where can I get that CD? : p

greetings from Cardiff, Wales

[NeuroticNexus]

Speechless!

[lifesart1]

she makes me wanna go to iceland!! ... she is perfect. And this song is incredible.

[pr0ject25o1]

wow

[yorkebjorkporkfor9k]

good lord I should be used to her by now. I'm bawling my eyes out!

[Amnesiacmidnitetoker]

I cant even describe it im totally speechless

I thought about the universehow evrything and every is connected we all brother and sister made from the star dust.

Amazing performance......

[littleamigos]

"I turn myself in"

"you own me... I am yours"

it takes guts to do that!!!!!!

[xXJillyBeanXx]

I get shivers with this.

[Sonnenstern80]

Somehow, every time I see this video, I feel very connected to her. Especially because it it´s not posh and she seems a bit shy. I think it´s perfect that way. Defenitely one of my favourites.

[MECoral]

So true. She is beautiful.

[c22880]

this women makes me cry. lolol

[faune]

me, too!

[klayzia]

no problem - and good we aren't enemy now :P

[bill500carphead]

shes a wicker woman, dark,deep,and pretty unorthodox . not your usual musical composition. but damm bloody good

[klayzia]

i think i missunderstood it a second time :D where is she for? do you mean: why she's there, for what?

[klayzia]

come down ;) i'm german so i missunderstood your comment - sry. so i've done some research: its the church in new york

[klayzia]

where's the emotion? i mean .. she stood there like a little kid that has to present a poem?

[bireman]

the emotion is in her voice... not in the way she moves... have you ever see her dancing? it's horrible!

[edemardil]

name any other artist, who is confident enough, to sing live, with her self only and a harp or other acoustic instrument. This song is actually very much like the seers and traditional music of Iceland actually. And that is what makes it even better.

[IsobelBjork]

@edemardil I could name the faroese Eivor Pálsdóttir. She does it all the time.

She even sings live with just a drum.

[edemardil]

@IsobelBjork Thanks! I'll check her out too.

[IsobelBjork]

@edemardil Yes please do, you won't regret it! Check out her singing Trollabundinn live, it is a lifeexperience to see that live I think! (OK maybe not, but almost ;D)

[taila1976]

@edemardil

well....to begin with, there was Robert Johnson, early Bob Dylan...the list can go on..

[htownryguy]

@edemardil um, lots of artists? are you kidding me?

[KaxxxE]

@edemardil florence welch :)

[klayzia]

cant you tip "riverside church" in google? so sad ...

[radioalex1]

fear is an awesome feeling..and that makes bjork trully awesome...

[radioalex1]

her voice is fear himself...

[entrim]

amazing, i love her

[matimore]

The Truth Shall Set You Free.

[uriel112358]

every song of this concert cant be beat,such intimacy

[fireflyzip]

I agree, it sounds like a beatiful prayer and confession...

[dsignrdane]

she sings likes she's confessing something to whoever the songs about

[IFreedomOfMind]

My favorite version of this song live. :]

[acusticadam]

woops i though she did-which song from this set does she walk into the crowd?-i remember from hbo

[paranoidandroid123]

that would be Unravel

[acusticadam]

omg i have been waiting for this-this is the best performance of palmstroke i've seen-i love how she goes down the asle

[sofiaav]

U a u
