🪐😳🧬TIMESTAMPS🧬🥰💫 Hunter - 0:53🌟 Jóga - 3:30🌟 Unravel - 5:57🌟 Bachelorette - 7:14 All Neon Like - 9:11 5 Years - 11:12 Immature - 13:23🌟 Alarm Call - 15:07🌟 Pluto - 16:52 All Is Full of Love - 18:26🌟 🌟= my fave!

Björk has always been ahead of her time, especially in how she approaches musical composition and the use of technology mixed with organic elements. Homogenic is such a beautiful album and it's incredible how it doesn't age.

björk does most of her production, she collaborates with producers, including arca but she is main producer, composes and writes to, loved ur reaction

Omg you have to go deep on her discography!!! She is probably one of the best artists of all time and it's such an experience each of her albums ❤

knew you'd love it ;)

This is considered one of the greatest albums of all time btw

I played this non stop, I was obsessed with Joga and Pluto. All is full of love is something I play constantly. This album was so ahead of its time, as was Debut. It sounds as awesome now as it did when it was released, better than most music released this year. Great video, thank you.

The video for all is full of love is HANDS DOWN one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen

YESSSSS IM SO EXCITED. I have this album on vinyl and it’s SO intricate and beautiful. Each of her albums are in their own atmosphere.

Without a doubt bjork is an artist ahead of her time, as you may have noticed she has paved the way for artists like dorian electra, arca, fka twigs, charli XCX, grimes among many others.

homogenic is a masterpiece that creates a perfect combination between the classic and the electronic, jóga lyrics are actually written by sjon (icelandic poet) the beat has volcanic elements from her country and the melody was written by björk and the producers of homogenic💙

This album is simply amazing and Björk is quite literally out of this world. About the credits, she does most of the writing and a significant part, if not most of production on her albums. But a lot of the electronic production in this album was handled by Mark Bell (RIP, btw).

The album cover art was done in collaboration with the British designer Alexander McQueen - Bjork performed bachelorette at fashion rocks when he was awarded British designer of the year. I love her music and style and yes she influenced so many artists at the time and continues to.

vespertine is her best album don’t listen to anyone else. it’s the most beautiful album i’ve ever heard

Welcome to the Cult of Bjork 👁 Vespertine is literally the most beautiful album about falling in love there is ! You need to react to it next

I adore bjork and her use of so many different types of glitch pop textures and drumbeats layered on top of these beautiful melodies. You definitely should check out a lot of her other works. Vespertine and Debut I think would be the best step after this.

We need Vespertine!!!

Since this album is an ode to her homeland, Iceland - the beats are supposed to represent the volcanic activity and lithospheric movements that is Iceland known for. And also the instrumentals were not only inspired by icelandic arrangements but also by iberian as well (where she produced that album).

i haven't been here much lately, but i absolutely adore bjork, she's one of the most influential names in music in the last few decades, i'm looking foward to you listening to Vespertine and Vulnicura, she's everything

Please react to PJ Harvey, she’s my favourite artist of all time. She was on the cover of Q magazine with Björk and Tori Amos, and she did a cover of I Can’t Get No Satisfaction with Björk at the Brit awards in 1994. Start with her albums Rid of Me, Dry and To Bring You My Love

Another great vid. Thanks for your insight and words. I adore that album. I could watch you all day :)

I truly enjoyed this reaction , not a lot of ppl react to Bjork , and it was really nice seeing someone vibing to her music , really excited for the next albums , Vespertine is the best imo

Loved the reaction! I’m glad you enjoyed the album, it just keeps getting better and better, she is doing a series of concerts right now, we just had the first one out of 4 and it was magnificent, they’re streaming live 🥰

Incredible! I just jumped into her discography last week! Amazingg💗💗💗

Oh for god! I can't believe you finally reacted to an album by bjork. My recommendation is to start with her first albums, the first 4 debut, post, homogenic and vespertine are the easiest to degrade, I can't imagine how you would have reacted if the first album you heard from her was medulla, if homogenic seemed something strange, get ready to listen after the fifth album, I hope you enjoy this amazing experience of what bjork brings.

I went to see her live and I smoked a joint then she sang Unravel and I wept 😂 No kidding, I was always like, why do people cry in concerts? And yet, there I was, crying at the her beautiful piano live rendition. I myself could not get into Bjork at first but once I moved away from friends who introduced me to this album, which was my first Bjork album, I gotta say that I listened to this album so many times.

I love when the outro's just play out, it lets you soak in the vibe they've created. I've never understood that critique, like if you think an outro is boring or repetitive just skip it. It makes sense especially in electronic music to let the vibe just play out

10:45 funny you mention that, she originally wanted to have the beats and the strings on different channels so "old people could listen to the strings with one earpohone and young people could listen to the beats with the other one".

Loved the reaction 💙

i love this album so much and it's really nice seeing someone listen to it for the first time hahah looking foward to see your reaction to the rest of her discography

yeeees

This album is like a therapy session but it actually works

never been so excited to see a björk vid on somebody’s channel YAYYY😆😆

thanks for the video! i love bjork for years and i am always very happy to see people react to her music

so excited to see someone getting into björk for the first time !!! glad you liked her ❤️ can’t wait to see you reacting to her other stuff. what about post next time? that’s a good one for beginners !

love to see you finally checking out bjork. homogenic was the first album i owned on cd and bjork was my introduction to what music _could_ sound like. i'd recommend vespertine next and vulnicura after that - one's a love album and the other is a heavy-hitting breakup album that still gives me goosebumps it might be a stretch, but i would love to hear your thoughts on lingua ignota's caligula from 2019. she's one of the most talented artists making music right now, imo, and the album is some of the most devastating music i've ever heard. it'd also be rad seeing you react to some poppy (i'd start with i disagree), yves tumor (safe in the hands of love) or brand new (science fiction) keep up the great reactions! p.s. dig the mullet btw (':

I love your channel OMG❤

Men this reaction is the best ever. I wish i was with you along the reacting explaining what it felt like to be a teenager when this album came out 🤯 she is one of a kind!!!❤ keep it up!

I'm glad I saw this on my recommendeds. Björk's art is timeless and hauntingly beautiful. Thank you!

Bjork is one of my favorites of all time, I was 12 when I found the video for Army of Me on youtube and I fell in love. I recommend you to go back and listen to her 2 previous albuns DEBUT and POST, before moving on. Since she gets more and more experimental through time, I believe it's gonna be great for you to follow this evolution. I love your channel and it's AMAZING to see people discovering Bjork, she's one of a kind.

im glad you react to great music. subscribed

I enjoyed so much watching your reaction to the album 💖 Björk has always been obsessed with sound. She has her own library of samples that she's recorded. She also has full artistic control, which is so difficult to find, and what every great artist should aspire to have. _PS, I definitely recommend you to listen to her album Vulnicura. The lyrics and sound are insane. It's also a string based album.

yayy!! Hopefully you can react to more Bjork soon :) 💘

Around 19 years ago I got in touch by bjorks music. Your reactions remind me on that time... bjork is just timeless... lots of love to you!!!

OMFGGGGG YEEEEEEEEAH i’ve been waiting for this reaction!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you should react to more albums by her maybe try vulnicura

OMG YES!!!!!! I’m so excited for this

One of the best reaction videos I've ever watched. Thank you! And yeah, Homogenic is masterpiece. 😌

glad you loved this!

YESSS!!!! POST NEXT PLS

I loved your reaction

Next you should start at Debut. Being her first solo album it has only snippets of the creative direction still to come and is full of hits and misses but is one of her more approachable and still amazing albums for newcomers. It’s a good place to start a journey for what is more complex themes and sounds further into her discography and get a real feeling of where all the mayhem came from.

The last two albums of bjork, all songs are produced by Arca. Vulnicura (2015) and Utopia (2017)

Still one of the best albums of all time. Her music videos are everything. Great reaction!❤

Do Vespertine next!!! It’s her magnum opus imo

I would say POST (1995) is an amazing Album. She started to incorporate more electronic then but Dived fully in the underground London Rave Scenes and that's when she really clicked with Producer Tricky from the British punk rock electronic group, Prodigy, He helped produce Homogenic. Vespertine, Medulla, Biophilia, Vulnicura and her most recent Utopia(2017) are all Fantastic Albums as well. She has worked closely since 2013-14 with the Venezuelan Electronic/Industrial Pop Glitch, DJ/Producer/Artist ARCA. Arca has produced for FKA Twigs,Kanye, And most recently with Gaga on the New Chromatica release, also has a new song with Sia. Again Great job 👍 and Hopefully you will continue on the Bjork Discography Discovery Journey

"Bachlorette" is actually a sequel to "Isobel" from the previous album Post. Thought you'd like to hear it. Another great reaction!

You should do a whole palylist with her albums, from the very beginning to the last one. I promise, u'll not regret. ;D

If you told me: you have to choose only one artist to hear for the rest of your life it would definitely be Bjork. Every single album of her is timeless. She was ahead of her time when she came up and she's still raising the bar 👏🏻e 👏🏻ve 👏🏻ry 👏🏻sin 👏🏻gle 👏🏻 ti 👏🏻me.

next i recommend you to listen to Post, it's her sophomore album. it came before Homogenic and it's more "easy" to enjoy but still has great lyrics and killer production. also you should definitely react to the music videos from the Homogenic era.

Oh do I love Bjork. Every time I listen to Joga I feel the same way I did when I 1st heard it. Finding out its an ode to her best friend and Iceland makes it even more special imo. I truly think it's the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. She really did help pave the way for current music. Her albums are truly special. I recommend Debut, Post and Vespertine

I love listening to all her albums in one day. Her music is amazing!!! They definitely withstand the test of time! Watching her sing live is out of this world.

It's nice that you decided to listen to Bjôrk

I‘m a big fan since 1994. Saw her live three times. And I was on her Homogenic Tour. Ahhhhhh what an inspiration. Love your reaction. Byetheway… you are such a handsome guy! 🥰

I think reacting to this album was a good way to get to know her discography. Homogenic is a masterpiece and from my perspective I dare say it is a small sample of what she and her team are capable of. I emphatically invite you to watch the music videos of their songs because they really complement their music to chimerical levels, you could see the video for "Notget", "lionsong", "Utopia" or "All is full of love". I love when people feel this kind of music in every tissue of their body, and you are one of those people. You def have another subscriber. You asked what you should listen to next, and I guess it depends on what you want. If you want something experimental like "Homogenic" you should listen to "Biophilia" (one of her underrated albums of hers) or as some people have already told you, react to "Medúlla". Also, if you want some excitement and feeling you can always listen to "Vespertine" or "Vulnicura". And to finish, I would recommend another album called "Shiver" by a different artist, Jónsi. You may enjoy it. úú~

This album still sounds more fresh than albums released this year

First time I did acid I listened to Homogenic and Radiohead's OK Computer in a loop for 12 hours straight on a 40K$ McIntosh quadraphonic system with a tube amp at my friend's house. Best audio experience of my life.

Loved the reaction ! I love her and you should definitely check vespertine or Vulnicura next ‘

This is the one your I saw live for Bjork 💕💕

so love your reaction - made me grin like a Cheshire Cat. Yes, Hunter is a masterpiece, one of the greatest hidden gems in all of music imo!

I listened to a bit of this album the evening of the day before it was released in stores in 1997. The store clerk let me listen.

Bjork has been in so many bands since her first album release in Iceland in 1977 (she was 12!). I've collected most of her work on vinyl. Her punk band's album, "Miranda" and the Bjork self titled 1977 vinyl are the crown jewels of my collection. If only I could find her Elgar Sisters material on vinyl, but alas.

I think MEDULLA should be next, it's nearly completely composed of vocals (throatsingers, beatboxers, etc), but really it's worth going through her discography from her solo debut to now, including the remix albums and soundtracks she composed. She's a musical genius. Her stuff with her bands also are worth checking out. Also check out Tori Amos, starting with From The Choirgirl Hotel

I WAS JUST GONNA SUGGEST THIS ALBUM OMFG THANK YOU also edit: its crazy how bjork arranged all of these string parts and like produced a huge bit of this album shes so cool

thanks for reacting to one biggest albums of all the time

If I had to choose one album to play on repeat for the rest of my life-it would be this album. And I’ve felt this way since 1997!

you HAVE TO listen to vespertine soon. it's my favorite Björk album and I love it to death.

Really glad you liked "Homogenic"! It's one of my top 3 favourites from her. This album was meant to be a fresh start for her, as her past two albums, "Debut" (1993) and "Post" (1995), are basically "greatest hits" of her musical passions, as described by Björk herself. With "Homogenic", she intended to find how the Icelandic modern pop music would sound like to her, so she focused on building the album with distorted "volcanic" beats (meant to simulate the volcanoes in Iceland) and overromantic patriotic strings. Regarding the version thing with "Immature" and "All Is Full Of Love", these are the versions of the songs chosen for the album! "All Is Full Of Love" has a version produced mostly by Björk, which was chosen for the single. It is just as heavenly as the Howie B's version, but it has more beats and stuff. I've never listened to Björk's version of "Immature", but I suppose it's just as cool as the version found on the album. "Alarm Call" also has a different version for the single, it's more danceable and fun. (You should check out the music videos from this album, they're all magnificent!)

Watch the Bachelorette music video ASAP. One of the best ever made.

13:30 You mentioned you wanted to know who Five Years was about. The designer Alexander McQueen who made the dress for the album cover mentioned that the album Homogenic was written shortly after Björk broke up with Tricky.

You’ve gotta check out her album Debut now!!

hyping up Vespertine because it's my favorite album of her

I know bjork since homogenic era, and watching you living for this album reminds me exactly about my feelings the first time i listened to it. Long life for the queen Bjork.

PLUTO and YOGA and FIVE YEARS. and of course HYPERBALLAD from her second solo album, prior to Homogenic... oh, also and VENUS AS A BOY and COME TO ME live version. also björk MTV unplugged

Homogenic is so fucking amazing TO THIS DAY! 🙌

Bjork is one of very few artists who take you on a full mind/body trip when you listen to her tracks separately and even more so when you experience her records from start to finish. She will always be ahead of her time. H I G H L Y recommend Vespertine / Vulnicura. Despite what everyone says, Biophilia will have the same feel twenty years from now. Such a banging record.

Jóga é INCRÍVEL

WHAT SURPRISES ME THE MOST IS THAT THIS ALBUM IS FROM THE 90'S AND WITH THAT TYPE PRODUCTION ON IT! LIKE IM SHOCKED

I guess you could say that Homogenic is Björks love letter to her home country Iceland. An example could be Jóga, which is titled after her best friend, and a song she wanted to sound very national anthemic. She also wanted to make a sound that reminded her of home. For example the distorted beats was to represent volcanic eruptions. Also during this time she was experiencing altercation with the paparazzi and a very morbid moment with a stalker. So she relocated from London where she lived at the time to Spain, where she would write and record songs for the album and string arrangements. I really enjoyed this reaction! I think if you were to react to the rest of her discography, then start of with Debut and Post. I think her first three albums are the easiest to start with, and then maybe dive into Vespertine (my fave album of hers! So wintery introverted and beautifully weird). I do kinda wanna say her later works from Vespertine to Utopia, becomes quite more avant garde in sound and song structure.

Please please please do Vespertine!

I would start with her other two 90s albums and then go chronollogically because after homogenic it gets weirder and weirder

Okay. I'm happy you like 'Bachelorette', I was scared for a sec 🤣

Vespertine, Vulnicura and Medulla are amazing too.

Great reaction, you should try "Heaven or Las Vegas" by Cocteau Twins ❤️

Bjork is one of the few artist that has 100% control of what she does.

Bjork's best album, perfect and sublime

Vulnicura and specialy Utopia, have a lot of hyperpop mixed with strings and flutes, maybe you will like those.

Best Bjork album EVER! This is right up there for me with Lily Allen's Alright Still Album. Should I be on an island with my fav albums this is definitely going with me

my absolute favorite album by far!

Pluto is my alarm clock since 2003

I remember this album, my only favourite album of Bjork's. Such a journey!
