@@allencampbell1058Ricardo Lopez was a stalker who was obsessed with Björk and attempted to assassinate her after he found out that she was in a relationship with a black man which was “unacceptable” to him, so he began a video documentation on his 21st birthday in 1996 January 14th showing him preparing the assassination attempt by using a sulphuric acid spraying bomb that he would send off to Björk either killing her or severely injuring her, on his last day alive he shipped the package to her address and video taped his suicide and this was the last song he played and by the end of the song he shot himself in the head. The neighbours who lived in the same hotel could see blood leaking from under Ricardo’s room and the police found his 4 day old decomposing body, the police reviewed the tapes that Ricardo made and immediately intercepted the package from getting to Björks house and safely detonated the bomb. It sounds far fetched but it’s a true story and his video diaries including his final tape with his suicide are on the internet to this day
If you have a pulse,then you are human.this god given talent named bjork lullibys like no other in this planet. for the ones that have not had the opportunity to hear her angelic voice, well that's really unfortunate. I always introduce her music to people and discover avlot of appreciation later.that's what its all about sharing what you love.bjork you drive me to tears each time I hear this wow,wow and wow again.
It’s more like empathizing with a casualty of hopeless insanity. Perhaps raging against any remorse for him on social media, somewhat implies that we fight the same monster that lies secure and dormant in us, the ‘normal’ people. But the fact that it exists in us, is what we find unsettling, and ‘not looking at Ricardo in any other way than a monster, is to suggest the madness in us, is just as volatile, and that we might slip and fall on the same treacherous road. To me, It’s a fight to not fall off the deep end for all of us. He fell.. unforgivable yes, but it’s ok to be sad for him.
*looking at how almost all the comments are about Ricardo* Well, you got what you wanted in the end Ricardo. Whenever someone thinks about Bjork they'll probably think about you too. I just hope it was worth the price my friend. RIP
Thank I've heard of Bjork and this song before I've ever heard of that guy who was obsessed and end his short life.... when I hear this or her other I dont think of his sad life and tragedy
As much as people might hate to admit it, while it's sad that Ricardo ended his life prematurely, it was ultimately his choice to do so. His life up to that point had shown him that the humanity was a cruel thing to be a part of. It's a world of monsters as he said repeatedly and that his fear of living outweighed his fear of dying. He had decided he wanted to die even before he started taping himself, he said he'd realized that he was staying alive for everyone else mostly his mother because he knew how much his death would destroy her. He attached himself to Bjork I guess because he felt pretending he had a relationship to her gave him some reason to keep living even if it was one sided. Then when she got with Goldie the illusion was broken and he lost the last thing that was tying him to this Earth. He was almost gleeful to finally be dying, in his last months he went about eating all his favorite foods with reckless abandon until they'd literally gotten boring to him, as a fellow fat guy I know how much being able to eat all foods worst for your health can be. He admitted shortly before killing himself that he figured the package would never really get to her, but he was happy to have at least managed to send it and felt accomplished in that fact. He may have not killed or even scathed Bjork, but the real thing he wanted more then anything was to be the biggest influence in her life. Well sorry to say it people but he succeeded. You know how much it freaked her out when she found out about him, and she's never going to forget it. People have even said that after the incident Bjork moved to another country and it had a profound impact on the style of her future music. But more important then that I think, he IS.. eternally connected with her. Almost no one is going to ever know about or be a fan of Bjork and not know about Ricardo Lopez, even if they try not to. As he said just before shooting himself. "Victory."
as much as most of this is true u cant treat this man like he was this poor human being that had a terrible life and just wanted to be loved by bjork and that him almost kill her was something right to do ur treating all the terrible things he did like they were thus fantastic thing to admire he was criminally insane its not something to celebrate or to admire
he literally mailed a bomb to her because she started dating someone. the man was mentally handicapped and criminally insane. do not celebrate his life.
@@baconhairzz Ricardo Lopez Was a fan of Bjork who later committed suicide and this was his last song that he listened to (so this has a special mark) (He was a racist, didn't have many friends,was mentally depressed and alone i guess) Type Ricardo Lopez on RU-vid you'll know about him since he made a video episodes of himself and uploaded b4 his death Also there are articles that will give you proper information
Syo seunghyo bài hát này Bjork k nhắc đến 1 đối tượng cụ thể nào; nhưng nó là ca khúc mà Ricardo Lopez, 1 người hâm mộ cuồng nhiệt của Bjork đã bật làm nhạc nền của video anh ta tự sát bằng cách dùng súng bắn vào họng mình, sau khi gửi cho Bjork 1 quả bom, với hi vọng họ sẽ chết cùng nhau.
@@nhungggggngo96 tớ biết bài này tình cờ được 1 chị của tớ gửi nghe thử tuần trước cơ... bài hay quá nên ngày nào cũng nghe... đọc bình luận thì thấy comment "rest in peace, Ricardo..." tưởng bài này chị hát cho bạn chị... lên search rồi thì mới biết... Đó hong phải bạn chị mà là 1 kẻ giết người... ớn luôn chứ... lúc trước nghe bài này cảm thấy thực sự bình yên, tưởng tượng như đang ngồi ở bãi biển ngắm hoàng hôn... giờ biết được chuyện vậy rồi... hong biết vừa nghe bài này, vừa tưởng tượng ra cái gì đây... 😂
Syo seunghyo nếu muốn nghe thử những ca khúc hay nhất của Bjork, bạn có thể nghe thử album Greatest hits (2002), còn nếu muốn biết thêm về Bjork có thể tham khảo video tư liệu về Bjork mà mình có dịch và đăng tải. Mừng là có người thích Bjork và nhạc của c ☺️
@@kaiv9268 Ricardo knew he was never going to succeed in killing or maiming her. The whole point of the bomb and suicide video was to imprint himself on to Bjork's life forever. In that aspect, he succeeded and I suspect he knows hence his last words was "victory!"
Right? I would've until I found out how racist he was. Dude hated the fact that bjork was going out with a black man and even called him the N word. Whatever it was, Lopez wasn't right in the head.
@@mr.classicragememerook96 to get do that the person has to want the help. They could’ve checked in on him more but that doesn’t mean they could just magically snap him out of his mental illnesses. Now, they have to deal with being related to a stalker and attempted murderer aswell as deal with the fact that he didn’t want help and is now dead because of it.
