Bjork is asked a few questions (1995)

[SuperWoocash]

1:13 Hello!*

*look background

[islandese77]

ég elska þig!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheYTChronicles]

In all these years, I've never taken the time to properly see what Bjork looks like, I've only heard of her.

I'd tap that.

[keyofdavid888]

One of her top 5 best videos of all time, too! (Its Oh So Quiet)

[mayyatara]

I would so eat her! And I'm a straight girl. But she's just so yammisweet!

[christowicca98]

It's Oh So Quiet. thats the only video in 1995 directed by spike... so yeah

[laru09]

of which video are they talking about?

[sp4eva1]

true about ppl being full of different sides. One night I'm partying and drinking like a fish. The next night I'm shy, demure, quiet, and have no desire to alter my state. Pure as F**

[Htown75]

MTV is talking about music??? HA HA HA HA

[Reeda1414]

Anybody know how i could contact her directly email or mail? I def wish to contact her.I love this woman!

[amozoness6]

@Reeda1414 ... Yeah, I would too, but keep in mind she's had stalkers before. I think it's best to respect her privacy.

[Reeda1414]

@amozoness6 she's about the only famous lady i would ever go crazy over cause she's so dayum cute.just look at her! nah,i wouldnt stalk her though,but i see why someone would.she's so wonderfully and uniquely beautiful.her music is interesting enough as it is......

[boydzhang]

[RFC]

(cont.) and the rest is completely his, all with little mad ideas.

- You do with all your own standard, fly up on the wall?

- I am not saying it, it is a secret.

- Okay, here you go Bjork on Breakthrough video in New York on120 mins. Thank you for talking to us.

#5

[boydzhang]

[RFC]

because when it comes to videos, video directors they take care of the issue. And music persons take care of the audio. That is in a way all I did was music. But then again my big issue is preparing (?) the right director with the right song. The only thing I really said to Spike was that just to make sure that it is not 50s, make sure it is modern, make sure it's now, it's normal people walking down in the main street, it has to be urban, suburb, USA

#4

[boydzhang]

[RFC]

- I'm sorry to (like, sort of) dig on like that, but it is really brilliant.

- I'm thinking you aren't a... well, basically I've been a fan of Spikes for years. I've been watching his videos. I've been waiting and waiting and waiting to have a song that would be good enough for him to do. And when I did this song, the first thing I thought is [was] he would be the perfect person to do it.

- So the whole idea is yours?

- No, not at all.

#3

[boydzhang]

[RFC]

(cont.) They are just like something to make this moment's emotions bigger. That's how I looked at it. So I was always determined that my albums have got all the emotion scales on 'em and whatever it takes to make that.

- We are about to be familiar with your album video, and it is incredible, nothing like this being seen for many years. We actually call it a breakthrough video, which is? maybe once in a year. But this is an amazing video. Spike Johnathan did tell us about it to watch. #3

[boydzhang]

[RFC]

- ... with me Bjork. Enjoy playing the festivals?

- okay, they are okay.

- big crowds or small crowds for you?

- yep. Well, to be honest, I like 'em little whole Swiss about 500 people. They are definitely prose cons(?)

- Is this festival like in Iceland where you grow up?

- It's okay. I remember festivals in Iceland were like (2) 1,000 people, idk, that was like one percent of Iceland nation, sth, and we were rolling mad. Actuallly I have blueberry yogurt in my hair for 3 days. #1

[LemoParamore]

She is the cutest thing ever;)

[Gustotheamazeing]

[MaveJDatthews]

[tymcbee]

my original muse...can't wait for Biophilia.

[windertt]

[warriors41]

@windertt I'm guessing "It's Oh So Quiet"

[windertt]

@warriors41 thanks, I'll search for it ;)

[christentze]

wow...the fuck happened to mtv? it was actually good once before?

[daniglue]

cocaine.

[ThelostOtakuGirl]

"Im not saying..it's a secret X3"...AWWW Bjork too cute<3 XD LOL

[Senj1n]

her accent makes me horny.. no joke.. is there something called a accent fetish? peace i'm out ... gonna call my girlfirend now

[CareBear2157]

Her accent is crazy!!!!!!! I had no clue where she was from til he said Iceland! She sounded Chinese then English then Irish the American. Wow.

She used to scare me until yesterday. Now I think she's bloody brilliant.

:-)

[anon40000]

Back in the days MTV was a household name, you could actually watch Music Videos, watch interviews like this one ,MTV was important for someone who loved music, but what happened MTV? Nowadays its still well known, but not for Music anymore, but for many cheap (ringtone) commercials and crappy US shows... MTV where have you gone... I understand that nowadays everybody can watch music videos online, and there is a big competition between different media, but still...

[thundertower]

lol glad i get to be a part of this era, they sure played a lot of her videos, she's one of the biggest artist on that channel, i mean mtv at that time, actually challenging the viewers on their perspective in art and music. Fucking insane even bjork thinks that's crazy and she's bjork

[Tidde]

I love the turn in the conversation:

"I actually had blue berry yoghurt in my hair."

"So your new album!"

[christentze]

@Tidde hahah, totally laughed at that part. that convo turn was truly a silent, unsaid "...alllrighty then....."

[innocencefaded2112]

@kickupheels definitely! her tongue's goin a mile a minute sure

[innocencefaded2112]

haha emotional sceal! bjork definitely has some irish in her:)

[Sobelk]

MTV sucks now!!!

[6XstringXsamurai]

bjork = amazing

mtv = fucking bullshit.

[Niiauyr]

I love the way her accents comes and goes.

[MRsikrim]

BJORK IS SO FUCKING GORGEOUS!!!

[JetJagger]

The "breakthrough" video they are talking about during the interview is "IT'S OH SO QUIET", a remake of the Betty Hutton song from the 50s. The video was released Christmas of 1995. Someone here quoted that she may be talking about "Army of Me". That's wrong. "Army of Me" is not "big band" or "50s", and she didn't "crawl up the wall" in it. She (stunt double) DID do a back flip off the wall in the "Oh It's So Quiet" video. Hope this helps.

[Trixareforkidzz1996]

u can c her boobs xD

[Trixareforkidzz1996]

shes so cute!. :D

[gunnerglory]

I'd love to bend Bjork over a glacier in Iceland and bang her from behind like a wild boar while she ice fishes and sings Hyperballad at me

[Trixareforkidzz1996]

@gunnerglory what the??? lol thats..uh...creepy..xD

[nescus100]

[mouthcradle]

sexxxxxyyyy

[pancholdn]

watching mtv was as culturally important to young music as the internet is now. Now I feel like a cunt every time I watch it.

[TJ347]

Bjork makes me want to go to Iceland and find myself an elfin beauty of my own. Love that woman!

[albinokittie]

sounds like it's Oh so quiet they're talking about cuz they talk about the stunt where she runs up the wall lol

[psikecity]

what happens with her at 0:40? she takes her tongue out like 4 times. i'd kiss her till my end

[sneekz07]

@psikecity She has a habit of poking her tongue out haha.

[sneekz07]

Haha 1:27-1:28 is pretty cute ^_^

[zurdop]

which video are they talking about????

[helenGOF]

@zurdop I think its Army Of Me

[ThoreAnd]

@helenGOF

Nope, Spike Jones only did "It's oh so quiet" from the "Post" album. He later directed the video for "It's in our hands" and "Triumph of a heart".

[dy30n]

@ThoreAnd is that spike jones interviewing her?

[ThoreAnd]

@dy30n

No, I believe it's Lewis Largent, but I'm not 100 % sure.

[ThoreAnd]

@zurdop

"It's oh so quiet"

[theillfrisch]

that tongue thing she did while looking at the interviewer was so sexy.

[Gxyz222]

Bjork sure knows how to conduct a really good interview. She's not merely as screwed up as people may want others to believe, and certainly not shy. A great artist and conversationalist as well!

[chain000000]

i THINK SHE'S EVER SO CUTE

[0sceptique0]

1:24 what's that act?.....anyway, Bjork speaks intelligently...knows what to say and how to say

[0sceptique0]

...MUSICALS STYLES..SHOULDN'T BE TAKEN TOO LITERALLY.....applause for Bjork

[dilcofilms]

If Bjork was chinese, everyone would be like "OMG, SHE IS THE MOST HOTTEST CHINESE WOMAN I HAVE EVER SAW!!!!!!

[sherribailey75]

they totally wanna fuck each other.

[jasminnie]

ummm....they're simply talking....your comment said way more about your own thoughts than theirs.

[coasttocoast7]

i think shes mad cute

[GEOGREEK]

@coasttocoast7 Totally!

[esnobol]

what video was it?

[Mikeus2006]

her accent has changed a lot?

[moonis1]

ég elska dig!" :*:*

[jpastuch]

No, she will lead us against the Reptilian Agenda.

[LubbiGunn]

Looks like she´s on e...

[AdIgnorantiam]

MTV 1995: Awesome interviews with Björk

MTV 2009: Stupid Cunty Bitches. NO, sorry! The Hills. I get them so confused sometimes

[golafs]

mtv in 1995, and earlier, was even playing death metal which was then a new experimental genre! ;)

[brennan93]

Maybe she tries to get the correct phrasing? It's not always easy.

[GorviackEK]

Oh yes ! She's hot ! And its music also !

[Moonstruck220]

I like how her natural accent keeps slipping into her speech, lol. Like 0:50 - 0:58-ish

[23393]

does anybody know whats the band thats playing during the interview?

[foxgirl100]

where did she get that proper london accent from?

[sarahsway]

I think she learned english in the UK... I heard that somewhere.. but i could be wrong

[DullMirror]

Today i prefer see Cartoon Network to MTV

[alfaceandrice]

I do agree.

[lisadrisdelle]

she picks her nose at the end

[d3ejmz]

i'm not saying... it's secret XD

LOL!

you crack my up Bjork. No wonder the universe just had to invent you!

[JonFacemusic]

MTV talking to Bjork today that would be IMPOSSIBLE those assholes... R.I.P good MTV

[Blovinjack]

what do you mean>?

also do you know what video they are talking about?

[ragnarkisten]

Of course, its the oh so quiet video!

[Co1dnessCa1ms]

he means that mtv has gone completely mainsteam and the truely good, insightful artists like bjork are ignored only for the benefit of business. Sad, really :(

[pornpeoplerock]

completely agree. mtv only plays commercial and massive music. what has happened to the world?

[JonFacemusic]

MTV has gone down the tube they are reality based and Lil Wayne and all those goofy goobers are in control and what are they talking about? it explains itself in the interview kid.

[Blovinjack]

I was talking about what music video they were talking about, ive never had cable so I have no clue what Mtv was until a few months ago but thanks for the tune up!

[TriggerHappyGirl013]

doing all your own stunts? must bee its oh so quiet.

[THEhahahahahahaWALL]

she was so beautiful, she still is, but in 95, was even more.

[FaceInTheRain]

She's as cute as can be in this clip. I read in either Spin or Rolling Stone that she has a real bad habit of picking her nose. Here she seems to have held off until the interview was over.

[wehitconcrete]

Yep. It's her little nervous habit. :)

[ADubonInc]

what video they talking about??

[alejandropa89]

its oh so quiet

[bjarki18]

,

im icelandic

[artsahiti123]

just look her from 0:38 to 0:42. haha

[fixxx3r]

hahaah

[ennerad]

hahaha, funny. what was that about, i wonder.

[caphre]

after the first question, björk change the accent to icelandic one,. at minute 02:00, she changes again to non icelandic accent,. so funny to hear her like she were from the forgotten westfjords,. but non so good liar

[54spiritedwill54]

i love her trilly voice

[ATARIEone]

so y did she beat up the reporter?

[guywithapen]

if I'm not mistaken, it wasn't long after she was the target of a mail-bomb, and it seems like some of that post traumatic stress came out then.

Also the reporter was harassing her.

[ATARIEone]

oh yea i heard about that mail incident but how was the reporter harrasing her?I mean i heard that sopposedly the reporter was following bjork around every were and stuff but wen did it turn to harrassment?

[guywithapen]

following is harassment I believe

[omegatsume]

the reporter followed her around that whole week and also asked her son questions and was harrasing her and her son , so if i was bjork i would have done worse lol.

[sillonlimon]

'im not sayin its a secret'

[Thewaterofthepool]

lol i love how she sticks out her tongue

[IsobelBjork]

me tooo! I just love it, it looks so funny! and I also love the way she sometimes talks english with the typical icelandic accent with the hard errrrrrrrrrrs and sometimes british english!:D

[blaze1231991]

She's so adorable. I want go up to her and lick her.

[TheReynoldS]

y yo.

[chikochevere]

Bjork can be such a little punkin sometimes. *love*

[dustingilbert1]

Is this interviewer an idiot? Do you listen to big band stuff from the thirties like Elvis? is he kidding?

[tesapie]

I think he said "albums" not Elvis . . . it's kinda hard to hear him.

[ffmfg]

"albums" not "Elvis", definitely.

[RebeccaChambersBF]

I love how she is so calm when she is about to go infront of 50,000 people.

[klolipop]

oh i love her "i'm not saying, it's a secret". so sweet.

[salvadorap]

y yo tambien

[markusparanoid]

yo tambien.

[yairtripicio]

Estoy enamorado de esta señora

[psytechnics]

yeah shes propably on coke,know it from that what she does with her tongue all the time. damn she were cute :P

[sirenamber]

wtf? She's not on cocaine you moron. She's got an accent.

[AyashaYumi]

Excuse me, she is from Iceland, she may move her tongue in a different fashion, because she rolls her tongue, something people from Iceland do when they pronounce words with the letter "R" =/ But you seem to be too ignorant to know that.

[AyashaYumi]

Also, that was a comment for the coke reply on the page back.

[Gr33nMeani3]

You're an idiot. She is'nt even speaking when her tongue is sticking out, it keeps popping out of the side out her mouth. It's weird, She's either eating, chewing on something or has a cold sore, has been doing drugs maybe? But it deff has NOTHING to do with her being from Iceland. She's doing it while the guy is talking...

[miaintheuk]

Oh my god, are you dumb? haha. I'm spanish, we roll our "R"'s too, and we don't look like we're constantly on E. Goodness, ignorance is pretty scary.

[miaintheuk]

you're right.

[sugardealer]

she's on coke!

[Xdelic]

It's I miss you

[katebushboi]

No, it's 'Its Oh So Quiet', which was directed by Spike and also has 'people walking down the street'.

[darkblueCAROLS]

"I Miss You"?

Yeah right. I doubt that video would get any sort of praise. "It's Oh So Quiet" sounds more like it.

[ViolentAnjing]

wich video is it they are talking about ?

[D4Suk]

I believe the video they are talking about is "It's Oh So Quiet"

[ViolentAnjing]

wich video is it they are talking about ?

[Tumdace]

i love how quirky and alive she is..

[jcabb1]

She looks good here....check out her expression at 2:42.

[imewen]

No girls don't want you looking at their boobs you should feel bad, that is highly degrading. I think that there is something wrong with anyone who regards a woman in that way.

First off you say how lovely and childlike she is and then ruin it by commenting on her boobs and degrading her.

[doubleup123]

dont feel bad for lookin at boobs ,girls want you too look , dont be so naive.

[Shonaripa]

it's not that. It's just that she's so childlike , like a little girl that it might feel weird. But also attractive as woman so it gets kinda mixed feelings u know. Still, it isn't like you feel bad about it, it just feels strange, for a second it might feel like pedophile thing but it's quickly rejected since she isn't a child, just reminds of one.

[hardstreetbambi]

i love her trilly voice

[dy30n]

aaww sweety pie :)

[sampuu]

ela é linda *-*

[herjazz]

love how she picks here nose at the end. that's the "little girl" bjork, lol. :) :)

[BWFSabian]

She is just so self-effacing and has a child-like honesty, I feel really bad because I was watching her boob cleavage and thinking about her on top..

Bad man, very very bad man...

[Shonaripa]

damn I was thinking pretty much the same:D haha, except the on top thing:P. Björk is so much like a little girl but also attractive as a woman so one gets mixed feelings :P. You go "I'd like to but hm I don't know " all the time

[SMHRS8]

It's Björk not Bjork stupid MTV! Don't forget the umlaut! =P

[seancoppinger]

I was at Reading 95.. how the hell did I miss Bjork

[Tedsuzan]

I meant four syllables, whoops! lol

[Tedsuzan]

I love how she pronounces 'basically' with three syllables. I do a good Bjork impression; check out my page if you're interested in seeing it.

[Killface9]

She looks amazing.

[kagaingas]

i will wait the video from spike jones it will be great and fun....

[Con1]

Sounds kinda cockney, was this when she was goin out with Tricky?

[Supernature06]

cool

[lilucraz]

her accent kinda changes from the begining to the ned:P shes cute

[crazyinsideme]

IS THAT SINDRI OPENING THE DOOR OF HER DRESSING ROOM SNEAKILY BEHIND HER AT 1:18?!?!? cute little devil...

[JeTbLaCkLoVe]

Don't you just want to run up to her and hug her whenever you hear her speaking? She's so cute!

[Andrewishis]

she's my inspiration

[meccel]

an amazing woman!
