Oh, and -- Bjork is AWESOME!!!!!!

[PetertheImpaler]

Just one more thing... WOW!!

[PetertheImpaler]

A remarkable, electrifying performance of a brilliant and powerful track -- just stunning...

[Babyblue57]

I have the slight impression that she's not live, at least she is dubbing herself on most of the song. Pay attention to the ending 't' sounds, they don't quite fit with stress she's doing with her mouth. I love her but that's my 1st impression.

[FlyBird]

@Babyblue57 No

[Babyblue57]

@FlyBird Yes. If you look carefully the voice is not in sync with what you hear, neither the pronunciation is exactly the same. I doesn't matter if Google video compression delays it a couple of ms. She's singing over a backing track, sometimes you hear live voice sometimes she relies on backing track.

[FlyBird]

@Babyblue57 No

If you look at all her other live songs, she sings in the exact same manner, because that's how she enunciate her words. There is no backing track on this all, and it doesn't even sound like a backing track is on here.

So stop trying to spread lies just because you're ignorant.

[Babyblue57]

@FlyBird Try to acquire some musical knowledge and the we can talk at the same level. It's useless to argue with a person like you. Do you play some instrument or your closer approach to music is downloading the latest rigntone. Also you called me ignorant. Cuantos idiomas hablas analfabeto?

[FlyBird]

@Babyblue57 Yes, I'm a percussionist, have been so for 15 years, and I dabble in guitar and voice also and I was a music performance major. So yes, I know a little bit about music. And cool, you speak Spanish, I wish I could as well.

Fact is, you're deviating from the point, so let's get back to it: She isn't lipsyncing. Period.

[Remko1024]

@Babyblue57 Heh, that's basically the best compliment you can give! See how awesome she is??!

[mazshioXD]

@Remko1024 I agree =D



[mazshioXD]

@Babyblue57 that's because the video is not synchronized if you see when jools holland says ladies and gentlemen you can see the fps are too low that's why you get that impression but god she is singin live i'm sure

[Kohrote]

@Babyblue57 But she's always sung this song wonderfully live, even in Voltaïc, where she apparently suffered through a vocally weak period. I think maybe the vocals on the album version are sung in such a way that would make this song easy to sing on key live. Or maybe because the vocals are not sung very quickly, the song is easy to sing live. I don't know, but even if Björk IS lip-syncing, she's MORE THAN CAPABLE or singing this song live and topping the studio version.

" i'm the branch that you break" . the voice, the singer , the woman, the lyrics ," all is full of love" .

[tylerdurden0005]

Best voice in the world

[andybondoir18]

idk how people dont see her talent and beauty... theres is nothing in this universe better than her

[R5d4d2]

She is bursting with emotion. It is beautiful to watch ... and listen to.

[DelawareResident]

Out of all of her performances, this one is absolutely the BEST rendition of this song. She is subdued and right on key, and the orchestra is fabulous. She looks great and I love how she closes hers hands with each beat in the beginning of the song.

[simonneville7]

One of the only videos I've ever seen on Youtube that didn't have a single dislike. Rightly so.

[EleKtrOPunKitO]

Es una genia. Transmite emociones muy hermosas.

[rafarayin]

Drink me, make me feel real!

[DavidPo3527]

I'm a fountain of blood In the shape of a girl You're the bird on the brim Hypnotised by the Whirl Drink me, make me feel real Wet your beak in the stream Game we're playing is life Love is a two way dream Leave me now, return tonight Tide will show you sweet bliss If you forget my name You will go astray Like a killer whale Trapped in a bay

[microbeat77]

im wondering whats with the weight loss and gain she seems to go through?

[MrKanpel]

God exists , her voice is the proof.

[albertodesalvo]

Está tocada con el don de la sensibilidad, de la musicalidad, de la emoción... es para no dejar de escucharla durante una vida entera.

[viskitjarommit]

very fateful

[sajukkhar]

I'm a fountain of blood In the shape of a girl You're the bird on the brim Hypnotised by the Whirl Drink me, make me feel real Wet your beak in the stream Game we're playing is life Love is a two way dream Leave me now, return tonight Tide will show you the way If you forget my name You will go astray Like a killer whale Trapped in a bay

[sajukkhar]

I'm a fountain of blood

In the shape of a girl

You're the bird on the brim

Hypnotised by the Whirl

[budianabanana]

Note for note.... fucking amazing. <33

[themodernorpheus]

Heartbreaking! Bravo!

[mbmanray]

"Hypnotised by the whirl" would be better as: "Hypnotised by the world"

Hypnotised by Björk doing this piece! Her voice is so smooth and clear - like glass.

Favorite line:

"Love is a two way dream"

Truer words have never been spoken!

[Bobby2shoes]

@mbmanray I totally disagree.

She sings: "The bird on the brim (of the fountain) is hypnotised by the whirl (of the blood)"

Is better how she wrote it, I think... ;)

[mbmanray]

her masterpiece!!

[chumskowsky]

Simply amazing, I'm all goosebumpy.

[Thekunt]

mustard

[elzombo]

Increible. Una de las composiciones mas dramaticas de la islandecita. Esta es una de las que a mi gusto mejor mustra el rango de su voz y en vivo se oye increible. Excelente!!!

[titohramirez]

tenemos suerte de tener a bjork...... es un gran personaje...

[ElectroPaganAnon]

She is so beautiful.

Thank you.

[Phabil2007]

Voz Perfeita!!
