So excited to be auditioning for Battle of the bands 2015!! Please enjoy this unique rendition of Bjork's "Unison" arranged by Julia Easterlin, Performed live right here :) :)
Hey friends! I think it’s crazy that I’m still getting comments and likes on this video this many years later. I am still having fun with music and I’m about to start work on some projects this year! Follow me on Instagram for updates if you want to keep up with the music @just.meelah:)
this actually made me go crazy. im also a black girl that listens to bjork and i adore her and its so astounding to see another person like me who also appreciates her music. unison is my favorite song by her which is CRAZY youre covering this specific song!! and you went beyond my expectations vocally! i almost cried from how devine your spin on the way you sing the song. i know you mistook some of the lyrics but it wasnt that bad and its understandable since she can sing very incoherently sometimes. youre much older than me now but im 17 and discovered her late 2023. youre amazing and i hope youre doing well. much love.
I gotta say, this is the first Bjork cover i've ever taken the time to listen to because i always figured nobody else could do her justice. I won't say that I was TOTALLY wrong (as i'm sure you would agree. The only Bjork is Bjork, haha), but this cover far exceeded my expectations. You've got an amazing voice, and even better, great taste in music. All things considered, I'll give this cover an A+. Keep it up, you're extremely talented. Cheers!
I've always thought this would make a perfect song for a wedding, but it can be a hard sell to people who aren't already enamored with Bjork. Somehow, you've removed all the electronic and choral parts and still made the song sound larger than life. It's a unison with yourself and I'm blown away.
HOLY SH!T GIRL NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL TALENT! You're one of the few, maybe even the only one that knows how to cover Björk with originallity. I'm literally clapping my hands in front of the computer screen now.
Wow I needed that. Normally I don't like listening to covers because I have such a strong connection with the original but your version is absolutely gorgeous. You have such a pure, rich, and healing voice and you sing with such sincerity. I'm looking forward to hearing more originals and covers from you and I wish you all musical fulfillment and happiness in the world. Love, your new fan from Los Angeles
I love how you added a soul flare to a song by an Icelandic dinner making it not only unique but Turkey your own. Adding your own unique style and stamp of autonomy and authenticity 💛
Damn. Only 1,000 views? You need to push this girl. Get an instagram going. Spread this. You are sitting in serious talent, you have a unique and soothing quality to your voice similar to bjork and sza. What's even more great is that I can hear in your voice, the potential, the FUTURE in your voice to become stronger and even more controlled and bigger/stable. Can I ask you how old you are? I think in time you will be absolutely beautiful, more than you ALREADY are. And it's wonderful that you covered someone like Bjork. Your taste, talent, and (hopefully, i don't know you lol) drive, can get you far my dear! Wonderful cover, I'm glad my friend sent this to me. Not many have a voice like yours
Not only is this incredibly beautiful and one of only very few bjork covers i've ever heard that i could get into - but your voice on its own is gut wrenching. You have such depth and soul in every note. Why are you not famous!? Thank you for putting this into the world.
Going from where you were @ 6:01 and onward. I was watching a few covers of this song and you were the first to do it. My favorite part. Everyone I saw skipped that section.
Wow, absolutely beautiful cover! This is one of my favorite bjork songs, I was looking to share Bjorks version with a friend, but I think I will share yours! You have a beautiful voice and you are just so creative with your rendition and the way you layer your voice.
I am a Bjork fan since the 90s with the Sugarcubes. You did this song justice. Good arrangement. You are in a class by itself as most Bjork covers totally suck. Please continue posting, creating, expressing.
This is an absolutely beautiful rendition of a beautiful song! Bjork is not an easy singer to cover, but you nailed it! More importantly, you brought so much of your own unique voice to this. You are an incredibly talented artist. Best wishes in all your future plans!
I liked your cover 4 years ago and if could like it again I would....you did a amazing beautiful job with this Bjork song and this is my top favorite song and cover ♥......
You're a true musician with the voice in the ways you've described your method and have shown us your singing style, which somewhat reminds me of SZA. It's organic, crystalline, not purely about rifts as many thing "great singing" comprises of. And the fact that you stepped outside of what most in the world of culture and color by singing my favorite artist of all time, Bjork of whom not too many are even familiar with still, you're cultivating some serious talent here. And regardless of what people will tell you as they tend to tell all of us musicians at some point in our life, "it's good but -" blah. They listened because your voice carried them into listening. Please don't be silenced by anyone, ever. I hope to follow your work in the future.
Haha that's quite alright. Your vocals have re-inspired me to pick back up on tenor sax. Playing to a good voice creates a melodic vibe people just don't understand lol. And trust me, we appreciate your authenticity and voice! Thanx Mimi!
Absolutely the dogs bollocks!!! She nailed it. What an amazing cover of one the uncoverables. Beautiful. So so so talented. Much more from this woman please.
you surely got great taste in music that's a beautiful song from Bjork and an extremely hard song to sing but you sang that very very well you've got a great beautiful voice
I love how you added a soul flare to a song by an Icelandic singer making it not only unique but truely your own. Adding your own unique style and stamp of autonomy and authenticity 💛 Don't be afraid to use your chest voice.
Hi, I really appreciated your rendering. I have a beautiful voice and your musical base created with creative and semplicity is mervellouse! A big li ke! Hugs, dear!
