Tanja This genuinely is the oddest reply I think I’ve ever read. What a bizarre comeback and to such a relatively unimportant comment I’d made in the first place. You sad, odd idiot. Also. Nonsense. I actually love a glass of champagne.
This and 'Joga' on Jools Holland 1997 are two of the best live performances I've ever seen on television and I'm quite old, I've seen a lot. She is absolutely PHENOMENAL
What incredible lyrics in that opening verse: I'm a fountain of blood In the shape of a girl You're the bird on the brim Hypnotised by the whirl Drink me, make me feel real Wet your beak in the stream Game we're playing is life Love's a two-way dream
I saw Bjork live three times. She is the best. Voice, lyrics, passion. She has it all. She the only singer that made me cry. She is completely underrated. I remember buying her album on cassette in 1997. Bachelorette is the best song she ever did.
Al Ramsey I only saw her perform once back in 2011 and I literally passed out within 30 seconds of her hitting the stage. Her energy was that powerful.
I had the opportunity to see her live twice also... and cried both times. Truly emotional, powerful performance. Just in awe. The only other group who I can say was maybe a close second was seeing Pet Shop Boys live also.
Out of all of her performances, this one is absolutely the BEST rendition of this song. She is subdued and right on key, and the orchestra is fabulous. She looks great and I love how she closes hers hands with each beat in the beginning of the song.
@@honeybee1256 She is such an underrated genius of our time. In many documentaries they don't even mention her at all. And she is surely on the top 3 at least in the 90'. An unique complete artist.
No one touches her talent both in execution and creativity. She is a unique singer and artist that grew up singing live from and early age and this video really shows off how insanely talented she was. Those in the know will realize how "perfect" this performance is. "Beauty resists capture"
No one can cover Bjork. No one. Update......after reviewing replies. Yes yes yes other singers can cover Bjork songs and do a good job with their own renditions of Bjork songs. No one can come close to how Bjork sings. That was my point.
One of the very few artists that allows me to abstract and feel like i'm in a dream-like state, like i escape reality while she's performing, that's beyond talent, that's magic, love you Björk, thank you
No one .there was one in an other registre but He's died Last year : Mark Hollis. Who sung with such conviction and sensibility and honnesty. Great singers.
You know people talk about Adele and other pop singers. Here you got a really really good singer breaking all kinds of vocal limits. She has some pipes.
Some pipes, and some serious bravery to express her individualism, and on and on and on. I, rightfully, pay attention to her lyrics, etc., like I do few other artists.
. . . a diamond bullet right to my forehead. And then I realized that they were stronger than me, because they could stand it . . . I am a bit weirdo. I even impersonate Brando's face during that monologue.
I really love how, as the song ends, she steps back away from the microphone and stands with the musicians - giving up the stage to them! Classy performer.
That blend of immense talent in every aspect of her songs, that voice that (in Bono's words) can cut through concrete, together with just a bit of compelling awkwardness and shyness . She's perfect.
In my faith tradition, I believe the most apt concept is that Bjork is gifted a Divine Charism, that is, a grace given to her for the benefit of others. I love her from afar. What aching beauty!
I'm a fountain of blood In the shape of a girl You're the bird on the brim Hypnotized by the whirl Drink me, make me feel real Wet your beak in the stream Game we're playing is life Love is a two-way dream Leave me now, return tonight Tide will show you the way If you forget my name You will go astray Like a killer whale Trapped in a bay I'm a path of cinders Burning under your feet You're the one who walks me I'm your one-way street I'm a whisper in water Secret for you to hear You're the one who grows distant When I beckon you near Leave me now, return tonight The tide will show you the way If you forget my name You will go astray Like a killer whale Trapped in a bay I'm a tree that grows hearts One for each that you take You're the intruder's hand I'm the branch that you break
@@craigg5410 at the very least, it's inexcusable past the age of like 16 when you're still figuring out stuff and don't realize how exactly it makes you look.
Everytime she hits those high notes at the end that I long for throughout the whole song, they're just so damn beautiful they bring tears to my eyes ❣ I think I'm in love ❣❣❣
I'll never forget the first time I heard her voice. I was in 7th grade. Our teacher left the room and we turned on MTV and the music video for this was playing.
Everything about this performance is riveting. Her anguished voice, the devastating lyrics. She is beautiful and has such a singular talent. I don't know why she has not done a James Bond song, she would be perfect.
Jools gets this little smile on his face when he knows he’s in the presence of genius. It’s a rare sighting... I’ve seen him have it for Bjork and for Amy Winehouse.
Last verse is in icelandic, translation is: life's a necklace of fears your uncried tears on a string our love will untie them, come here-- loving me is the easiest thing
"Bachelorette" I'm a fountain of blood In the shape of a girl You're the bird on the brim Hypnotised by the whirl Drink me, make me feel real Wet your beak in the stream Game we're playing is life Love's a two way dream Leave me now, return tonight Tide will show you the way If you forget my name You will go astray Like a killer whale Trapped in a bay I'm a path of cinders Burning under your feet You're the one who walks me I'm your one-way street I'm a whisper in the water Secret for you to hear You're the one who grows distant When I beckon you near Leave me now, return tonight Tide will show you the way If you forget my name You will go astray Like a killer whale Trapped in a bay I'm a tree that grows hearts One for each that you take You're the intruder's hand I'm the branch that you break
So talented. How cool of her to give those gifted musicians moments of lasting visual respect. I love the dance and dichotomy of the front•person and the integral supportive whole ensemble.
m simply fascinated by that ethereal being... with all her purity, innocence, naturalness combined with her incredible talent and power to realize it, transform it, and bring us, people, a touch of that beauty and pure love ... she is the truest woman I have ever seen...
