@SupernalOne Your right, they're not singing to a God that isn't there, they're singing to people...but why is that a bad thing? God doesn't exist, but that doesn't mean were alone, the universe is a BIG place....it's naive and even a little arrogant to think that were the only ones who live in this universe.
On one hand, "God" has been used to justify wars, persecution, inquisition, and religious institutions can become corrupt. On the other hand, religions maintain standards of ethics and morailty, provide a venue for community social interaction & bonding, give comfort and generate hope. Why not believe in a fiction if it inspires one's life? And what do we replace religion with, patriotism, family loyalty, quid pro quo? It just feels a little sad to me, that's all - truth hurts
@SupernalOne because those so called ethics are crap...and there has YET to be a religion that isn't a LIE and a perversion. Fie anda pox on all their calmumany. Believing in religion IS suicide.
My fav artist. A little girl singing through an adult body. Meaning there is hardly any fear in her expression nor limitations to her imagination as adults normally have. I wouldn't say she is profound as far as insight into spiritual things as this song involves, but she is definitely a creative genius and can express complex emotions through her art.
@conversescooby Adn what is the meaning? I've got this album, listened to it since I was around 9 years. Love Bjork, just never understood it. Maybe it is not meant to be understood?
@DandeB88, Yes , but they play another kind of music , 1st is a new school progressive rock and they´re from Italy. ( like Premiata Forneria Marconi) and 2nd one played heavy metal from México, buy they disapear of the scene in the 90´s.
en mexico BIORK aun no es muy conocida pero los que sabemos de ella sabemos que su musica va mas alla de un simple rock, su musica tiene el proposito de la futura musica , no pertenece a la generacion x como casi todos.
@Matheusfoxy deus is Latin for "god"...In Classical Latin it was a general noun referring to any divine figure. In Late Latin, it came to be used mostly of the Christian God. It is inherited directly in the Romance languages, as French dieu, Spanish dios, Portuguese deus, Italian dio, etc.
I don't know if I would say she is sexy...but she was very cute back in the Sugarcubes days, especially with the short hair. She's still good looking though.
This song isn't really a commentary about people's beliefs or anything like that, as any human being they have the right to believe or not believe in anything they want and express it, this song is just child like and laid back, not really a political commentary...
Oh, come one. It's her juvenile. She, I guess, is a little bit ashamed with Sugarcubes songs. I too think that it is cute song but you overvalue this piece and give meaning that it never has.
I think that Sugarcubes is only, only, a step, an exercise to Bjork and some kind of greenhouse to her.
Sugarcube is an artistic joke, a seeking of limits, mining of ideas, something in change but not complete, like lava isn't a ston but will be in different circumstances and times.
I don't think she's ashamed of The Sugarcubes songs, especially this song in particular, she has said that she's surprised how all her beliefs were so well formed back then and how they haven't changed at all, she values the KUKL era more, but The Sugarcubes were important for her, she has said they were a joke band, in the nicest possible way of course, but she loved that time.
