Official announcement of the Polar Music Prize 2010 - Björk

The Polar Music Prize 2010 is being awarded to Icelandic artist Björk. With her deeply personal music and lyrics, her precise arrangements and her unique voice, Björk has already made an indelible mark on pop music and modern culture at large, despite her relative youth. No other artist moves so freely between avant-garde and pop. With her albums and videos, Björk has taken avant-garde to the top of the charts. She has also always embraced technological advances, combining computers with ancient sounds. Björk has introduced an arctic temperament to popular music and shown how passionate and explosive it can be. Björk is an untameable force of nature, an artist who marches to nobodys tune but her own.

@JabaPac The Grammy's are a joke. I don't even consider the grammy to be a serious award. All the fans, and people she influences more proof of her excellence.

She should get every prize including the Nobel prize.

Rarely has an artist deserved such acknowledgement more. She's shown what it is to be creative.

It's nice to see her so touched by receiving the award too.
