who likes Bjork?
 
as for me...I LOVE HER TO DEATH!!! her music is so creative and she sings so unique and pretty. Not to mention the killer outfits she has (props on the swan dress) my favorite song by her is I've seen it all, her and Thom Yorke make an awesome duet together.

I do lots. Except I hate Medulla. Fave is Vespertine, fave song is "Generous Plamstroke" and "Bachelorette". THE BEST SONG FROM HER EVER IS "BACHELORETTE"!!! Its so bloody awesome.

I love her to death... I do not know how it exactly started because some years back I did not like her very much... I was not even interested in her... and then I saw a video (I think it was the OCEANIA video) and I really disliked it.
But back in October last year somehow I listened to her Greatest Hits CD and I loved it so much. A frined gave me her "debut" and I really came to love her music. I also like "Medúlla" very very very much. I also got the limited two DVD edition and it is soooooo great in DD 5.1 XD

Hyper Ballad is her best song ever :[ it's like crack to my ears. Homogenic in general is my favorite album. I got more bjork DVDs than CDs though :x

I remember the first music video I ever saw when I first got Much Music was 'Human Behavior', and it scared me to death! lol... scary bears running around in the forest... 8 year old Cory...

My loce for her started instantly after watching the video, its so cool/ethereal/freaky/nonsensical/artful/cool and there's jellyfish in it!!

I just recently got into Bjork. I couldn't stand her when I first heard her, but I absolutely love her now. I own Post, Homogenic, Vespertine, and Medulla and I like them all. She's just so amazingly unique in her voice, clothing style, and lyrics and I absolutely love that about her. My favorites songs would probably have to be Hyperballad, Joga, Bachelorette, and Oceania. I also think that her music videos are awesome as well. I especially like Oceania, Army of Me, Cocoon, and All is Full of Love. And yes, Human Behavior's MV is really freaky (as well as I Miss You).

I like Bjork, but I can't listen to her continuously for an extended period.

ayu3657 8th February 2006 10:08 PM

I'm not a crazy fan of hers, but I was really interested in Medulla because Mike Patton contributed vocals on that album, and he is my absolute favorite vocalist EVER.

appears 8th February 2006 10:45 PM

id only heard its oh so quiet and wasnt2impresst back in 1996 but then my cousin introduced me2post and ive been a fan ever since.
she totally rocks, her music videos are gr8, the fact she is able 2write such amazing lyrics with english not even her 1st language is incredible, plus she kicks ass live as well.
her performance in dancer in the dark was exceptional also, although that film is majorly depressing.
i wish i could speak icelandic2figure out what shes saying in some songs

slashess 8th February 2006 11:26 PM

oh dancer in the dark is such a good movie...Bjork is quite the actress too. She said however she wouldnt really appear in many movies despite her being a good actress.

Rins-chan 9th February 2006 10:02 PM

My fave songs are so many and they are chaning from time to time. But may all-time-faves are:

Bachelorette
Isobel
There's more to life than this
Who is it
All Is Full Of Love
It's not up to you

I really really really love her lives. She is soooo amazing. Not only that she sounds great on her records. First I avoided to buy live albums and DVDs by her because I was a bit afraid she would not sound that great live. But when I read some articles about her lives and that she used to perform for more than 20 years I bought her DVD "Life at Royal Opera House" and I was so impressed and touched that I nearly cried. It's crazy. But I never was touched that deeply by any other artist.

My fave videos are:
Violently Happy
Army of Me
Cocoon
Pagan Poetry
Venus as a Boy (I read that this is something like Bjorks piece of work for the feminist movement - really crazy)

I also got her 1991 Jazz album "Gling Gló" with Icelandic interpretations of international Jazz hits and also a live recording from this album and it's really funny and I love Icelandic language and somehow it is a bit similar to German older languages and I think I'll take a course to learn it after I'm through with my Japanese.
