This is actually better than I expected!

[bjoerkhoerer]

so, what did you expect? do you know the original?

[Apogee777]

why compare? we are all so individual

i am sure bjork is covering a track that she feels so close to - the lonely deep of our own minds, so personal...

thanks bjork, for sharing your appreciation for the wonderful Meredith Monk

@Haldered Excuse you? The creator here is MEREDITH and no one else. The things bjork does is putting her ticks on it and a big band on the background to make look like the epic-est shit out there. This last one is also her favorite tick.

this song sung by bjork with the brodsky quartet is going to be included in a new meredith monk compilation coming out on 20 February !!! :DD

Do a cover of a Meredith Monk song? Ms Bjork, I admire your courage.

[utubeleplague]

i prefer meredith's by a large margin. bjork ticks are all over.

@bjoerkhoerer I thought it would be not that good, maybe a little pitchy. But no matter, because it was good.

@expander64 Yeah....I wish Bjork record this version on a single. At least release it as a kid's lullaby track on the account she has children herself.

@ska2808 i am one of those who agree Bjorl's version is better, in a lot of ways . . . , but Meredith Monk does have brilliant music! Kudos to both brilliant artistes.

@Sportyak67 I love this version by Bjork. I wish she she would record in a single or something.
