Bjork is asked a few questions (1995)

[Sep-1995] Reading Festival

[@MargareteMS]

She's just a grateful grapefruit

[@Tidde]

I love the turn in the conversation: "I actually had blue berry yoghurt in my hair." "So your new album!"

[@Gxyz222]

Bjork sure knows how to conduct a really good interview. She's not merely as screwed up as people may want others to believe, and certainly not shy. A great artist and conversationalist as well!

[@danielafloarei]

It not fake.In this period she used to live in Great Britain but a few years she moved back to Iceland and she's been living there ever since so I think it's normal for her accent to"come" back

[@jadograd5071]

lol mtv covering music. thats weird

[@bjorkino]

It was 1995, way before MTV became a huge piece of trash.

[@soundofominous4646]

Agalloch!! \m/

[@TheGloriousNosebleed]

So how does one person get so beautiful and sincere? Always amazed.

[@user-vg5ik5sx5k]

Agreed.

[@mike325ci]

love how she picks here nose at the end. that's the "little girl" bjork, lol. :) :)

[@bishonen2pm]

120 minutes was hands down my favorite tv show ever! 🤍🌸😍🤩🥰🌺🧡

[@BjorksMusic]

Truly, what does she have to gain by intentionally faking her accent ? She responded to this accusation in an interview by saying she can't help but be herself. If anyone is true to themselves and not fake it's Bjork.

[@TheStinkusofYore]

BjorksMusic People are just idiots. That’s what happens when you live in a foreign country for long enough, she just took on a bit of a uk accent after living there for a while. That’s not uncommon at all.

[@aceventurapetdetective2356]

Whatever people say about her, she is very genuine. Rare thing these days.

[@JetJagger]

The "breakthrough" video they are talking about during the interview is "IT'S OH SO QUIET", a remake of the Betty Hutton song from the 50s. The video was released Christmas of 1995. Someone here quoted that she may be talking about "Army of Me". That's wrong. "Army of Me" is not "big band" or "50s", and she didn't "crawl up the wall" in it. She (stunt double) DID do a back flip off the wall in the "Oh It's So Quiet" video. Hope this helps. -

[@josephheslin822]

The hero we need. Thanks for info.

[@Tumdace]

i love how quirky and alive she is..

[@Bjorkocity]

Thanks for This!

[@Blovinjack]

I was talking about what music video they were talking about, ive never had cable so I have no clue what Mtv was until a few months ago but thanks for the tune up!

[@Andrewishis]

she's my inspiration

[@54spiritedwill54]

i love her trilly voice

[@deadeyes2803]

spike jonze jesus that resume

[@portraitphenomenon]

thanks!

[@SarahSamoneKatalina]

shes always licking her lips even when she has lipstick on so cute

[@Reticuli]

She's completely normal (well, that's not quite the right word), smart, and intelligible here. Very professional and artistic at the same time without all the odd trappings and tendency to not get too into the weeds of the craft, where she usually masks that stuff with cutesy stuff. Finally the real Bjork.

[@mtlicq]

Perfect interview, respectful and informative, unlike the talk-show host interview that got the 500 people in the audience jeering at her for her dress, right after complimenting her for her dress. That one was cruel to say the least

[@PINK_AURORA4444]

ОК dress

[@franzhaas3712]

I HAD THE BIGGEST CRUSH ON HER BACK THEN. FUN FACT : WE HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY!

[@0sceptique0]

...MUSICALS STYLES..SHOULDN'T BE TAKEN TOO LITERALLY.....applause for Bjork

[@IsobelBjork]

me tooo! I just love it, it looks so funny! and I also love the way she sometimes talks english with the typical icelandic accent with the hard errrrrrrrrrrs and sometimes british english!:D

[@ThoreAnd]

@helenGOF Nope, Spike Jones only did "It's oh so quiet" from the "Post" album. He later directed the video for "It's in our hands" and "Triumph of a heart".

[@TheWhitetygrrr]

18 years ago but she still look great!

[@hugskiol]

AY LA AMO

[@spyk_]

No, it's 'Its Oh So Quiet', which was directed by Spike and also has 'people walking down the street'.

[@aaronriveros5311]

La Adoro

[@Hyperuniverse1]

damn I was thinking pretty much the same:D haha, except the on top thing:P. Björk is so much like a little girl but also attractive as a woman so one gets mixed feelings :P. You go "I'd like to but hm I don't know " all the time

[@marlenesullivan3113]

❤ BJORK.

[@seancoppinger]

I was at Reading 95.. how the hell did I miss Bjork

[@golafs]

mtv in 1995, and earlier, was even playing death metal which was then a new experimental genre! ;)

[@TJ347]

Bjork makes me want to go to Iceland and find myself an elfin beauty of my own. Love that woman!

[@Chronorpheus]

sounds like it's Oh so quiet they're talking about cuz they talk about the stunt where she runs up the wall lol

[@kagaingas]

i will wait the video from spike jones it will be great and fun....

[@amozoness6]

@Reeda1414 ... Yeah, I would too, but keep in mind she's had stalkers before. I think it's best to respect her privacy.

[@marblerye123]

@kickupheels definitely! her tongue's goin a mile a minute sure

[@eduardoalfonso3765]

[@AyashaYumi]

Also, that was a comment for the coke reply on the page back.

[@ThoreAnd]

@dy30n No, I believe it's Lewis Largent, but I'm not 100 % sure.

[@Moonstruck220]

I like how her natural accent keeps slipping into her speech, lol. Like 0:50 - 0:58-ish

[@PabloHoney19]

It's all so quiet

[@meccel]

[@nimim.markomikkila1673]

She’s got the Joker lick

[@Blovinjack]

[@portraitphenomenon]

[@CareBear2157]

Her accent is crazy!!!!!!! I had no clue where she was from til he said Iceland! She sounded Chinese then English then Irish the American. Wow. She used to scare me until yesterday. Now I think she's bloody brilliant. :-)

[@ThoreAnd]

@zurdop "It's oh so quiet"

[@ragnarkisten]

Of course, its the oh so quiet video!

[@diogenes1815]

Cool woman good sense of humour too

[@Reeda1414]

@amozoness6 she's about the only famous lady i would ever go crazy over cause she's so dayum cute.just look at her! nah,i wouldnt stalk her though,but i see why someone would.she's so wonderfully and uniquely beautiful.her music is interesting enough as it is......

[@HarryPotter87]

Is that Riki Ratchman?

[@hughdismuke4703]

What is the video they are talking about? Maybe I missed something in the video.

[@thelegendarymvg7807]

They are talking about the music video for It's Oh So Quiet, directed by Spike Jonze.

[@hughdismuke4703]

@@thelegendarymvg7807 THANK YOU!

[@thelegendarymvg7807]

@@hughdismuke4703​ Not a problem. Sorry it took someone five months to answer your question 😄

[@darkblueCAROLS]

"I Miss You"? Yeah right. I doubt that video would get any sort of praise. "It's Oh So Quiet" sounds more like it.

[@TheOrientalNightFish]

What happened to her accent?

[@helenGOF]

@zurdop I think its Army Of Me

[@ATARIEone]

oh yea i heard about that mail incident but how was the reporter harrasing her?I mean i heard that sopposedly the reporter was following bjork around every were and stuff but wen did it turn to harrassment?
