@VialaAldaran She was just maturing, just like everyone does. Have you ever listened to KUKL or Tappi Tikkarass? It's easy to trace the path of her development if you start with the early stuff and progress forward (not to sound condescending or anything). So you like the more mature, refined Björk more than the early, rough, sometimes ragged stuff. But to say the later material is more pure than the earlier is like saying raw cocoa beans aren't as pure as a chocolate bar.

I cant imagine living in a world without Bjork, she is one of the best artists to come out of the 20th century.

I guess I'm working backwards,but isn't this sooo blooming good

@beanaleeno I think that would be fcknfantastic. Imagine if she had the technical prowess she demonstrated on "Wanderlust" back in those Sugarcube days? It would have literally been scary.

@shattervocals you really get that sense on "Regina", and the country&western version of Cold Sweat (named "Hot Meat', on the remix album "It's It"). He really doesn't like lobster, because he IS a lobster! He's not a cannibal!

@d3ejmz how bout a refined tube of chocolate, a craving for those bombastic chops .

@TIMOTHYSAARINEN When you think about it, his purpose is simply to bring the madness.

maybe her best year(s). For meit took little later to start going downhill- losing purity

[wahkeena]

wow. i haven't heard this song in more than 10 years... amazing that it reminds me now of the Pixies. (esp the beginning of the song) - and it's amazing to see Bjork so young and so "pure" looking... so unassuming. stripped of so much artifice... it's really something.
