Vespertine is, quite possibly, without a doubt, my favorite album. Pagan Poetry and Hidden Place are beautiful.

I agree, it was amazing. Just simply outstanding. I especially like how everything seems to flow easily together...

A low point I found on Homogenic was Pluto. I can listen to it, and I can see the creative aspect of it, but there are parts that makes me wince.

[CatGirl]

omgg, I just finished listening to Homogenic and it's so gooood ;_; I'd only heard a few of the songs on it before (the ones that were on Greatest Hits) xD But yeahh, it's so amazing DDD: Unravel is SUCH a good song xD I'm so Bjork obsessed currently >> << >>

[xiaou-xijiang]

^that's my feeling actually. XD I bought Vespertine total . But Homogenic is still my favorite. I've got Bachelorette stuck in my head for the past two days.

[CatGirl]

^ Awesomme! :O *high five* Vespertine is a pretty awesome album too I love It's Not Up To You & Unison sooo much ;-; And Bachelorette is SO amazing xDD it's my fave song by her

[xiaou-xijiang]

^Bachelorette is really dramatic. much more dramatic than any other song on Homogenic. A bit darker too.

Also, It never occured to me how short some of her lyrcis are until I read the booklets. The composition of the music makes it seem so much more epic than the few lines that make up the song.

[Namie♡TOP SECRET]

I love Bjork

[emi♡]

I've been meaning to listen to her stuff~

does anyone have any album recommendations?

[JackieRos]

^Vexpertine and Medulla

[Namie♡TOP SECRET]

All of them EMI! Take caution with Debut & Medúlla (especially latter, as that is made entirely of vocals, which is a bit o_O, but hey, that's what Björk does). Vespertine, Post & Homogenic are my favs.

Ya same.
I wouldn't recommend Medulla. There's a reason she called it that.

[Namie♡TOP SECRET]

Medúlla means marrow in latin.

[emi♡]

you guys crack me up.

thanks for the recommendations, I think I'll just go get her discography, and hope I like stuff lol

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

^ homogenic is my all time favorite album from bjork. but vespertine is amazing

[JackieRos]

medulla is an awesome album well to me anyways
i recommend her Greatest Hits album too

[Namie♡TOP SECRET]

JackieRos~Medúlla is an awesome album. Greatest Hits is....WOW! They should have my fav on there, 'It's Oh So Quiet' =

[Mr. Goto]

Medulla is amazing. Some of the tracks are really weird (and unlistenable for some people...) but there are other amazing songs to balance it out. All her albums are pretty amazing the only one that disappoints me is Volta

[JackieRos]

i only liked two songs in volta

[Gubsi]

I think Volta is one of my favorite albums from her!
I don't know why so many people don't like it!
I love the energy in this album it's fantastic, BUT when i listen to Volta i changed:
Earth Intruders (Album Version) -----> Radio Edit
I See Who You Are (Album Version) -----> Mark Stent Mix
and include Nattúra as Track 11

Edit: The only thing i don't like about Volta was this horrible packaging with the sticker!
But i opened it once to put the songs on my notebook, so i don't have problems with that!

i cannot really choose which album is the best, cause every album has his own style and magic!!
Volta has this energy, little bit agressive
Medúlla has this strange, but magical feeling
vespertine is pure and beautiful
homogenic is kinda futuristic for me
post is lovely and sweet
debut is full of live and fun

[JackieRos]

debut is an amazing album i think i loved all of the tracks




my fav pvs are Army Of Me, Possibly Maybe, I Miss You, Hunter,
All Is Full Of Love, Hidden Place, Pagan Poetry, and Cocoon,
Oceania
