all these comments are old as fuck, like from back when you could rate vids with stars lmao. anyways.... VICTORYYYY!!! BOOM. thumbs up if ya know wat i mean
Bjork can sing--I think any mistakes in her singing, especially when recorded professionally, are all purposeful. On that note, I think this rendition of the song is about suicide. When her voice does go off-key or off-color, it sounds painful and broken and I think that's why this song is really great. It's a love song that's been switched into a suicide song, and mistakes in all, it's beautiful.
I like how she uses her voice as an instrument. She is singing in a sense. Just not the way were use to it. If you don't believe me, remember, you ARE hearing range control, which trust me, is very different from simply yelling. It does take practice ;)
VERY, very disturbing listening to this song when you know somebody killed themselves whilst this was playing. Its just weird how the song strangely goes with lopez's last moments :| .
Gosh I wasn't going to say anything. So sad...but at least the person who took their life had this beautiful song to listen to. I'm not trying to be trite but music is about life and death and stems from the void which is vaginal creation which is nothing and everything all rolled up into one like a tootsie roll.
querida amiga te recuerdo desde que te conoci hace tantos años atras y cada vez que escucho tus discos... te recuerdo toooodo el tiempo en mi pais... y mis amigos tambienn... las dos sabemos que tooodooo es el amor, y aqui hay mucha gente que tambien lo sabe..
Bjork's voice is...unique. Her music is experimental and overall GENIUS, which is what makes her so well known. Even though her voice can't even compare to that of Whitney, Mariah or even Christina, it's her overall music/lyrics that makes her an amazing artist. She's just so freaking creative!! XD
@mcrlovesBoA I think her voice FAR surpasses those of Mariah and Christina. Whitney is a powerhouse in her own right but in a completely different way. There have been singers like Whitney, but there will NEVER be another Bjork.
She used a swan as a dress and a guy tried to murder her with an acid bomb and then he video tapped himself doing the weirdest stuff and shooting himself in the head naked with makeup. She's like papparazzi ecstasy.
Thanks atmosfearic1. Yeah, I'm way behind times I guess. I had to look her up in Wickipedia. Since she was apparantly born in '64 a cover of this in '93 would make her in her late 20s. Sounds like a child's voice. Nice accompanyment and beautiful pictoral composition. Thanks for posting it.
A charming rendition. I was looking for the hit which I remember from many decades ago.(I can't remember who sang it). After the 2nd time through I think I prefer this one. Very well done. How old and who is the vocalist?
I'm sure you know it's an old tune, that's been covered by many artists. This is done by Icelandic singer Björk and was done in 1993. What they are referring to in the earlier post is that there was a crazy fan that video taped himself committing suicide and this song was played in the background.
@jstjake1 uhh... yeah. that's pretty much why I'm watching this. I'm downloading this just so that I can listen to this song next time I feel like having suicidal thoughts ;)
