Björk - Jóga

Vespertine Live at Royal Opera House - 2002

[@btul2569]

it's impossible to watch this only once or twice

[@marcmaui1374]

Liar i watched this millons of times -_-

[@hoh4368]

I'm at like 5 tonight.

[@briceuu]

so "emotional" !!!

[@canobenitez]

right click on the video - loop - enjoy

[@biggestfanofroger]

One of the most beautiful songs of all time

[@everyhandlesalreadytaken]

Yes!!

[@cesariobitorino]

biggestfanofroger go Roger!!!!

[@marciocouto3543]

Definitelly.

[@paganpoetry5931]

yes

[@gpeddino]

This sounds like an aria from some modern opera.

[@bootsy797]

Can't Hold Back My Tears ...

[@rafaelferrari7651]

I had the impression that orchestra is slower than she wanted to in the chorus

[@feint176]

Rafael Ferrari but it made it differently beautiful tho

[@feint176]

her voice sounds like a person who is about to cry but holds it in the chorus

[@denvertaylor9195]

Rafael Ferrari You are definitely right, they were totally dragging, it’s symphony-esque but it’s not a symphony if you get my drift, still beautiful though, and Björk is just flawless.

[@kruse8888]

Its exactly how its suppose to be, trust me. Björk is a diehard perfectionist.

[@AlexCalva]

It feels like she’s doing weird cadences, almost grooving during the first half of the song. Then they got tighter and it sounded better.

[@lcjevers]

makes sense only with you. wou don’t have to speak i feel, emotional landscapes,,,,they pass on me and ...you push me up to this state of emergency how beautiful to be......every nerve that hurts deep inside of me, you don’t have to speak I feel.....etc etc.....such a nice lyrics from my muse!!

[@navetierra9571]

Llorar ante tanta belleza es inevitable.

[@mcDynamit]

so mysteriously beautiful,, thank you,, bjork,,

[@blinkenlightsmagic]

For once a performance that is deserving of the qualification "epic"! Thank you for uploading this divine performance and sharing the experience.

[@TheJaniodesouza]

Incrivel o que ela faz com a voz! o Brasileiro Eumir Deodato que fez o arranjo de cordas pra essa musica.

[@phi4857]

obg pela informação !

[@shinjisimp]

she melts my heart. love how she immediatly dashes off like 'fuck the applause I'm outta here'

[@damonfosdike8708]

Such an amazing voice.

[@joet7644]

Just, wow

[@Mkaed1wealth]

Credit to the director :), also love the camerman for focusing on the small stuff like her left hand when her fingers start dancing

[@trihartanto8867]

live terindah yang pernah ku lihat

[@chsquidman]

❤

[@fanfanlatulipe6730]

how beautifull you are !

[@bollocknaked1975]

I must watch this little wonder live one day.

[@bazinbali]

Beautiful but feels like it is dragging too slow in the chorus. Such an amazing voice though

[@tessamichelleable]

I cried. Am I the only one that cried?

[@quixgofar]

Gives me goosebumps when I listen to it.

[@antnybeard69]

Tessa Smallwood nope, not the only one. at 3:39 to be precise.

[@WinstonGuitar]

+Tessa Smallwood No you are not.

[@morganchamb]

I cried as soon as the instruments started playing lol

[@Yotipo]

+quixgofar Yes. My goosebumps have goosebumps

[@MindStray]

Queen of Iceland.

[@jamesdeansghost5531]

+Wildson Lima goddamn right you are...

[@YaaraC109]

+MattIsScared how would you know?

[@pouderbernf.u.7021]

+MattIsScared it is only five percent of any nation//any society that really sees any beauty ....... just five

[@LegitFUry]

+Beprotybes Iliuzija Sigur Ros can be her bodyguards.

[@5marcelojunior]

Queen of the Universe.

[@Missjunebugfreak]

This is definitely one of the most gorgeously haunting songs ever crafted. Gives me goosebumps every single time.

[@warrenlwolfe]

totally agreee

[@marianopuertas3907]

And makes me want to cry

[@radiofloyd2359]

Tbh, I like the album version better :/ however, the song is an incredible masterpiece.

[@NicoleeMuzarr]

her voice is amazing sounds exactly the same as audio version and not alot of artists these days can say the same

[@pazansun9678]

Even better I think..

[@juliocesarlagonesmelgar6320]

3:35 that was so fucking awesome

[@bricktop2603]

Agree.Bjork is a miracle!Only few artist can do this. SIA for examlpe.

[@barrytarr2960]

Just watch her left hand - it takes you through all her emotions.

[@M.T.G.]

A daugther of Kate Bush ...

[@goncarrasco]

Bjork is post human.

[@comphysync9084]

No, mas bien la mayoria son prehumans, sin el entendimiento emocional q tiene Bjork y pocos mas

[@goncarrasco]

Comphy Sync de acuerdo, la vasta mayoria de gente padece de una carencia de entendimiento emocional y una conexion con el cosmos tal como Bjork. Pero lo de ella es una cosa notable, fantastica, de leyenda casi. En cualquier casi, se hierge como una especie de beacon en medio de la neblina de mucha musica que no me comunica mucho a mi, al menos.

[@comphysync9084]

Si pocos artistas saben desifrar y encantar los mas sensibles secretos del alma como ella. Talvez la musica mas sutil de Coldplay se le podria comparar.

[@StopJazz]

hahaha, excellent!

[@JBCo2012]

Gonzalo Carrasco Silly remark. EVERYBODY was Created by HIM, included you. Everyone faces Heaven or hell including Bjork you and I. There is ONLY ONE G-D. Do not be stupid and worship mere human beings. And I'm a big Bjorne fan by the way. She is a heroine to me NOT an idol to me. Mankind has to STOP worshipping mere human beings. HE CREATED EVERYBODY AND EVERYTHING FOR HIS PERFECT PURPOSE!

[@Kaylushhh]

This woman is other worldly. If you sit and really listen this song will speak to you. This version brings me to tears. I really love it.

[@flatleythebardflatleytheba5597]

+kayla rodriguez Totally agree with you. Vocals like no other. Takes me into another reality.

[@broadwaymelody33]

I went to Iceland last fall, and my husband and I were the only two on a Golden Circle tour, so our tour guide figured he could just have fun with us and talk about tons of things he wouldn’t cover in the regular tour. We asked him about what Iceland really thinks of Bjork, and he said that she’s appreciated for being their biggest star, but a lot of people assume everyone in Iceland is an enigma of quirky arthouse weirdness because of how she acts lol. “No one before or after her could do what she did, even in Iceland”

[@sapienswoodu7271]

Да, у Mistfiks напоминает , возмутительным поведением , не прикрытой, детской простотой своего поведения. И сделали из этого стиль.

[@renegadewa4183]

She is amazing. When I first saw her I thought what a weird little chick. Then the years made me wiser. She is an incredible talent. Mesmerizing.

[@shammycat3538]

+Renegade Wa Me too, I didn't know to think of her or her music at first, I just knew it was interesting. Didn't take long for me to become a fan though.

[@hbeezey]

lmao, same

[@andretheshadow]

There's a fragility in her voice live that is just amazing.

[@azaricorindo]

You described me very well in all these words...i used to see her pic in guitar magazines and i thought: what the hell is "that"? Today i think she is amazing...a true talent!

[@antoniocarmona7808]

Same here!

[@ignaciocolonromero4414]

Elegante....magnífica.....excepcional.... carismática....

[@ungoliantmarauder8849]

saboneteira

[@miguelbrunoo]

Vc viu o sirriso dela no final?! Que lindo...

[@2leandrin]

caminhoneira

[@Andrew-yv2vd]

caloteira faxineira

[@vctr2185]

espectacular... extraordinário... especulante... estelionatário...

[@derraldsegue7967]

Her vocal range is out of this world !!!! I love her so much

[@jfedorcak]

This version just made me shed tears. I have only shed tears to about 6 songs in my whole life, and now this is the seventh one.

[@zepagius]

here too bro

[@shortk23]

Emotional landscapes

[@spacial2]

Me as well. It's as if she feels rather than sings. I feel with her. It's spooky and very warm. I will admit that a lot of Bjork's work causes that with me. What she does is so profound and seems to burrow deep into the soul.

[@oksyi]

and be sure, that not the last one ;) it is beautiful to cry while listening to music - emotions are like bombs blowing....Oksyi (youtube ) :)

[@MarcusVinicius-ft9ll]

I'm curious about the other six musics.

[@SugahShy]

Feel those chills? That is what happens when a soul spills out emotion via sound waves and you receive it.

[@gibsondanny]

She is the cutest, sweetest, most amazing singer ever. I don't understand how she can make her voice sound the way it does. She is just perfect.

[@shashasyedd8858]

This is the song I need to curl up with when wounded, to restore my faith in nature, the human race and existence itself. The beauty of it heals me.

[@faune]

What is perfect? I tell you, this is perfect!

[@jordandempster229]

Yeah, except for that cellist at 1:07 hahaha.

[@dennis4298]

Grinzzz :-) you caught it!

[@Phoebehunniexox]

I swear to god this video is addiciting, no matter how many times I watch it still feel so moved and I never get tired of it.

[@tiffanyfranks5861]

Unison is my favorite

[@pouderbernf.u.7021]

+Tiffany Franks all is full of love//live is my favorite .... just because of the freedom she expresses in it ..... the little smiles

[@Ritterjaegerjaeger]

+Phoebe Dowling Yeah, I actually watch it at least once a week. It's so inspiring...

[@JodiAnneDavidson]

"Emotional landscapes/ They puzzle me/ Confused/ Can the riddle get solved?/ And you push me up to the state of emergency/ How beautiful to be!/ The state of emergency, is where I want to be!" The lyrics, and the strings, together, captures that sense of wonder and beauty one feels in love, as if flying or floating above something words cannot describe!

[@FlameWish]

This song is named after her friend's nickname.:^D I think it makes it all the more loving and moving!

[@YaaraC109]

The proof that relationships between good friends make touching songs as well

[@FeralCreatureOfIncredibleRoses]

She's wearing the alexander mcqueen voss closing look...ive never seen art complement each other so well before

[@ItsMeVolatility]

I rarely find myself so impressed with a person in every single facet, but here I am, wondering how she can possibly be this creative, charming, expressive, and moving at the arts (and in general). An absolute talent powerhouse. A month or two ago, I decided to expand my musical taste/knowledge (because I barely know any artists in depth), and on a whim I chose Bjork to be my first ‘project’. I’d only heard (and bought!) one of her songs (Army of Me) prior; I enjoyed it, and thought she’d be an interesting pick for this journey of mine. I knew there was *no way* I wouldn’t walk away from the experience with some truly special music, but I had no clue I’d love her work to this degree. I feel lucky to have (pretty much randomly) chosen her, as I get to listen through her discography and find gem after gem. It also makes me happy to see someone thrive by being their authentic, unconventional self. Helps me realize there are folks who will appreciate my own set of oddities, that somewhere, there’s a crowd out there for people like me. I’ve yet to find it, but I’ll be sure to keep looking. I know that sounds like the epitome of “No one understands me, MOM.”, and hey, maybe it is. I just feel like there are parts of my personality I should keep buried. However, artists such as Bjork show me that that doesn’t have to be the case, and I’m very thankful for it. So yeah, I think she’s one hell of an impressive individual lol. Stunning music. Thanks to anyone who read this by the way

[@charlescharliejpeg]

I love that for you ❤

[@razrv3lc]

3:36-3:37 sounds so angelic. It doesn't even sound like her, really. If someone had played that little bit without the video, I don't think I would have ever guessed it was Björk.

[@cuckoohead454]

Yes, was thinking same. I suppose this is her falsetto voice which I haven't heard her use before. This performance of Joga is breathtakingly emotional.

[@lilybevan4803]

She is a pure soprano, singing without vibrato in an open-throated (hence not falsetto) style heard in Nordic, Siberian and Bulgarian folk music. She also employs a smoky, almost growly edge, and her incredible vocal precision allows perfect repeats of complicated phrases, building emotional intensity. She is one of the very greatest singer / musicians in any idiom working today - that's why tears come to the listener almost instantly at several moments here. This is sublime.

[@cuckoohead454]

Well said. Thank you for this detail.

[@stenach7790]

I also noticed this short spot directly. At that moment, she has eye contact with the conductor. I assume that it was agreed in this way in the rehearsals... probably even a suggestion from the conductor.

[@Go0nzaah]

It feels and sounds like heaven. One of the greatest voices in music history.

[@WorldofWandag]

f*ck yeah that "push" at 3:34 !! with all that raspiness surrounding it, that sh*t comes from the side hatch and she smiles because she knows she just changed your life for good with its intimacy.

[@antnybeard69]

WorldofWandag that and then the swell after it made me burst into tears. not ashamed in the slightest

[@karlbronson]

thom yorke and bjork is the only hope in this world.....

[@vlady89]

Thom Bjork

[@gpeddino]

***** That song is actually by PJ Harvey (featuring Thom). The Thom + Björk collab is "I've Seen It All", from the Dancer In The Dark soundtrack.

[@therealpotpol4027]

@Déjà Siku Haha tell more jokes. This wasn't funny enough.

[@amanda3172]

thom yorke can at least play multiple instruments. i think he is also a better song writer and has probably wrote most of radiohead's song. bjork has had different people help her write her songs over the years, but i prefer bjork's younger voice any day

[@lilbean3847]

Déjà Siku Change your tampon, you angry dolt

[@Qwalsius]

I will marry a woman someday and this will play there then and she will understand this song.

[@kyvministries]

Yessss. I'm sitting here in Starbucks discreetly wiping away tears listening to this tune. I look forward to singing this to my future husband one day

[@andrelucena3232]

imagine waking up in the morning being her... the most creative human that ever existed.

[@EnjoyTheSound2010]

No

[@cheytacpraetoriancomposite3413]

I remember listening to this for the first time and how 3:36 caught me off guard so much that in less then a second my tears went from not existing to falling down my cheeks. I think she saw the conductor looking and smiling at her and when she looked at him he made her sing it like that.

[@Nameless-dw5nv]

My favourite version of Jóga. :3

[@Petch1]

The jools holland version is also amazing, but no copy of it, only someone recording off tv with their phone...why bother, terrible quality all round that way

[@iTeacupPanda]

I've been looking for it. There was a good quality version of it. It used to be on here, but it was removed I guess. :/

[@abbie6457]

Bjork is Queen, all these other "artists", like Beyonce, Nikki Minaj, Gaga, are ridiculous if they believe they are truly unique in music. No one in music is more unique and worthy of praise than Bjork!

[@danielvander]

Björk is simply pure ART.

[@martinturrell223]

Totally agree XD

[@rbermea]

Björk is the real Queen Bee of music.

[@lilianavess6064]

Bjork and Bowie

[@Soulplatinumsuper]

Abbie gtfoh

[@romulo353]

She is so much that she even isn't.

[@eyeshowyou]

Romulo Ferreira thats the best comment .... you got it

[@comphysync9084]

This melody plays every instrument of my soul, does it plays your too?

[@stevious7278]

Bjork can make me soar with the angels and cry like a baby within 5 seconds.

[@lamrwiley]

Bjork's music has been a glorious part of my life for 23 years. It pushed me up to this state of emergency and it's where I want to be... always.

[@nathalialobo2582]

I fucking love the way she sings this song in a very slow way, while her body seems to be very eletric. It goes deep inside of me, woo.

[@bluhair85]

Quello che mi fa impazzire di lei è che ci mette l'anima, quando canta ci mette talmente tanta passione che è come se stesse recitando le parole di una preghiera sacra... nn so se riesco a spiegarmi

[@ale_98_]

Sì capisco... io amo tutto di lei, anche gli accenti strani o l'atteggiamento buffo ma solo di apparenza, essendo una donna molto forte.

[@ronnywilson2112]

Amazing, just wonderful performance... Love Björk...

[@jwayne665]

The most important music artist of the last 20 years. Hands down. For me anyway.

[@adriandm14]

the violin or viola player that fucked up at 1:07 lmfao..

[@jonascarneiro2576]

Omg!! I heard that too!!

[@tralalaklak]

:D

[@mrbrownroyyal]

I didnt hear the mess up....will listen again

[@adriandm14]

it's clearly noticeable

[@LegionIvory]

Considering the eclectic nature of her work, the average person wouldn't even notice. I only noticed because Joga is one of my favorite songs of hers.

[@lunanielsen9144]

The amount of passion she puts into every performance

[@walkingmonument]

Often imitated. Never duplicated

[@scoobydisney]

She's barefoot. I love that. And her full-body performance of this song is wonderful: completely unrestrained and interpretive. And I love the way she moves her fingers, like they're crackling with energy.

[@AkiraUema]

She's beyond beautiful!!! Totally in love with her!

[@AkiraUema]

+MrSpadeofAce Hahahahahahaha!!! Don't worry, man! I'm not crazy! LOL

[@MrSpadeofAce]

;) just checking

[@johnamaral1786]

Ditto!

[@adrianfp]

this is song will always remain as the most beautiful song that i've ever heard

[@RichardHBlumberg]

Björk - "Jóga". "Vespertine": Live at Royal Opera House. 2002. Bjork, at the Top of her game!

[@youknowho2541]

Ty so much for this!

[@banjocricketusa]

If I could have but only one woman whisper in my ear, it would be her. She is a rare diamond, in a sea of ordinary.

[@sisyphus4889]

It's 2018 and tears are gently rolling down my cheeks.

[@dk84470]

Out of this world. It feels heaven while listening her.

[@harithnoor3520]

Now that is a true legend. A life time memorable. Been listening to her eversince till Im now at 52.

[@kmahaffey75]

Perfect.

[@batasloba]

exact word.

[@therealKINDLE]

Utterly sublime. There isn't a single atom on her that isn't perfected genius. Someone won the lottery with this little girl.

[@badlandsghost]

Uh she's in her 40s xD

[@therealKINDLE]

Alastriana Teregov Age bares no relevance to beauty, vision or talent. Art transcends both space & time. Translation to You Tube language: Yo Mumma over 40 & I banger her like a thrash metal kick drum last night.

[@3m0k1d4evr]

+KINDLE lol

[@Paulino813]

This is one of the few instances where her singing live sounds better than the album. Bjork ily

[@AiLAT]

her voice is absolutely beautiful

[@circolombisque2285]

Wish the choir would've done the "Al siman kae" gibberish lyrics in the background but still, an amazing performance.

[@panedilegna2891]

Afablesotrue Allt sem hann sér, lmao It's Icelandic for "all that he sees" or "all that is to be seen"

[@rome8180]

Someone in the orchestra hits a very wrong note at 1:08. It happens right when Bjork sings "State of..." for the first time. It wouldn't be so jarring if it wasn't at such an important point in the song.

[@fernandoemh]

3:35 So beautiful! and the Violins seem to get louder by the emotion.

[@RaccoonHills]

No performance of joga could beat the one with björk wearing the green dress

[@Ajsiofficial]

Wer is auch wegen Kool Savas hier? :D

[@MauPacheco]

Björk e seu poder em tocar meu coração com a ponta dos dedos.

[@mauropuccetti5489]

La sua voce e come una scala musicale .cioè .VOCE .STRUMENTO

[@erikasjankovskis8745]

I cried. Period

[@jaxmanx]

Fuck me what am amazing song am obsessed and on my repeat 24/7

[@MrDaddyBuff]

This is the most beautiful thing I've ever fucking heard. The more I listen, the more I hear, the more I connect, the more I feel.

[@elysiumdream7354]

Joga, army of me, isobel, unravel, and more.... bjork you are such a gift. thank you so much for you music....

[@miguelbrunoo]

This is the only true beautiful smille ever... 4:45

[@MaiaGlor]

My god.. straight out of heaven..

[@zeez3000]

Goosebumps - Thank you for being Björk!

[@goldiewilliams2154]

She looks radiant is that Alexander McQueen gown.

[@beefsupreme694]

If the strings weren't so flat, this would be a mind blowing performance of one my all time favorite bjork songs

[@MrZeetack]

all this accidents make sense only whit you....

[@BloodylocksBathory]

3:35 is my favorite bit. She does much of the song in the same intensity as on the Vespertine cd recording, but here he brilliantly chooses to be gentle for just a moment. It moved me to tears the first time I heard it.

[@AreYouCerealBRO]

Bjork is God.

[@sonkebuchner5301]

Wie kann man bloss so verzaubern? Grandios!!!

[@Flaskkorv]

crazy vocals 3:26

[@aeropro7558]

This is just simply outstanding.

[@craigowenlindvalljr8300]

I'm a "Rocker" I guess you could can me that. Asking Alexandera, FFDP and A7F are some of my favorite bands. But something about the purity and emotions put into this song make it one of my favorite songs to listen to. I'm not usually this contradicting when it comes to music but if you actually listen to the words and rhythm of this song you can't dislike it. 137 people just don't have an open mind and have the inability to notice something beautiful when they see it or hear it.

[@45mrmustrd]

absolute best video on youtube

[@4711Frankie]

Sie ist halt ein Genie, einfach perfekt....Message for Björk :, Come to Hamburg to Elbphilharmonie this will be fun for you 😀👍......i‘ve Heart it‘s perfekt, if you do not feel like it, i inviite Sade 😁👍👍, but i love only you 😘

[@1Percyvideos]

love this song.

[@Dwiewanna]

She is just sublime :D

[@James-c8s9z]

Great artists touch my heart, but bjork touches my soul....

[@sillygreekgirl24]

I used to sleepover at my grandmas house and I was 17 when this cd came out and would put it on repeat falling asleep next to her...She passed away May 22, almost 3 years ago and she was my everything. I never knew I could cry so much playing a song and being thrown back so many years...Soooo beautiful...So felt..

[@gazanfar_musabayov]
