Bjork - Play Dead - Official Video HQ

This is one of my favorite songs. And the movie it's from Yong Americans is underrated. I couldn't find a HQ video so I ripped this from my Volumen DVD.

[@sunsetlonercinema]

I always refer to this song as the best James Bond theme song never used in a James Bond movie

[@horrorfanandy4647]

Absolutely agree with you there. David Arnold composed it and of course went on to create arguably the best scores in the series since John Barry. I always thought this song would have worked wonderfully for a sort of direct follow-up to OHMSS (If they had made one in the 90's with either Dalton or Brosnan of course) with the song being all about emotional numbness. If I ever make a Bond fan-film I think I'll force myself into using it, there's a reason the rest of the Bond community loves creating alternate title sequences with this song, it's absolutely elite and perfectly suits the character of Bond even though it wasn't written about him! 🤣

[@DiseasedDreams]

I'm so happy to find that I'm not the only one.

[@cal3blipa]

Fuckin A

[@PassiveAgressive319]

Agree

[@lewisner]

I can totally see it as a Bond theme

[@eamonndeane587]

One of the Best Songs from the 90s. Damn this song is underrated!

[@analisaposada2236]

Amen!

[@LeeTAZ-sl7de]

Very true same with the film its from Young Americans is a great movie.

[@NathalieDumont-dn8hz]

😊

[@Fantisma7]

Even without the video this song alone is a cinematic experience

[@chantelletrembath3345]

I've never watched the video till now but I've always LOVED this song. 'Come to me' is also brilliant and beautiful

[@supbilly07]

Bjork's best surely

[@petejones879]

Def my favourite

[@user-ld7ch1er6j]

Nah.

[@worthingdecorating8506]

Yeah my thinking too was looking at her whole collection thinking ... where's the one I really really like

[@TitoSausalito]

She like a Nordic Goddess singing her heart out on top of a mountain

[@lisabowden3033]

Feel this within my whole soul. She makes you feel every word . Love her

[@stuartmiddleton1972]

Totally brilliant. Visceral, sensitive and deep. Majestic piece of writing and orchestration.

[@killerkalleausmkiez1676]

Every Morning before going to school in winter January 1995 played at MTV .

[@CPunicorn]

Such a brilliant underatted song 🙂

[@philbartlett8308]

Staggering vocal performance on a stunning song, one of my favourite artists of all time, bjork , bonkers, beautiful and brilliant in my opinion.

[@Tripp393]

A song actually ahead of its time. Applies so much to today's world. Amazing how she and her producers knew what they were doing.

[@Nofurtherquestions]

This is going to be the soundtrack to my visit to Icleand in June 🇮🇸

[@hisroyalhighness8566]

How does this Masterpiece only have 45,000 views? Criminal 😢

[@ThatChrisGuy]

Bjork's collaboration here with David Arnold is absolutely sublime.

[@aribjarna]

Fun fact: Reykjavik is sometimes lovingly called the "City of Fear" (Borg Óttans). I belive it's nickname originated from this song.

[@aribjarna]

At the time it had the highest suicide rate in the world; per capita.

[@larsakesson9878]

Björk what a voice😍😍😍

[@spmoran4703]

I have been through what is happening in this song . Thank you Bjork for being such a genius.

[@bunnysky2780]

Me 2

[@afjkernow1808]

One of my favourites from the Nineties, along with Massive Attack and Tracy Thorn's Protection. Such emotional power in the vocals, the haunting lyrics and the soundscapes in both songs are extraordinary. They still affect me now. Magical.

[@PassiveAgressive319]

Along with Portishead👏

[@afjkernow1808]

Oh definitely, Portishead. Again creative soundscapes and memorable vocals.

[@ciaranmcglynn8150]

I was KZbin searching for this song based of a vague childhood memory of Bjork having a phenomenal song that sounded a little Massive Attack with that soaring Violin piece... I could never find. Until finally I found it on Virgin Atlantic flight to Cape Town before Christmas on a Bjork album that I searched through on the in-flight wntertainment system. I must have listened to it 20 times straight! 😂😅

[@ChosenHandle117]

What a song.....

[@bravenewworld5824]

Randomly came to mind.. Still hits different. Damn even more so😂 I really need tiktok to not get their paws on this masterpiece!!!

[@iljansterenberg1874]

This voice is brutality

[@amandavm]

This is her best track by a million miles

[@uncledmsr]

a bit angry I’ve never heard it before - beyond sublime

[@immia8016]

Me too! It’s ok I just discovered her recently

[@coleenbarr]

I have had this album since it came out and have listened to it a million times. I've never heard of this song in my LIFE until now.

[@nicojongeneel9734]

Absolutely her best theres so much in it

[@DougUnfunny]

I didn't realise this was produced by David Arnold. He worked on many Bondy films and Bjork could have song a main Bond theme. Sadly we only got a Cover of you only live twice by Bjork and David Arnold.

[@mikeylitchfield4651]

Remember the song from my childhood and liked it. never saw the video until now. It's pretty good.

[@PassiveAgressive319]

David Arnold auditioning for the Bond franchise 😊

[@v4000]

thank you for uploading this!!!

[@ericfresh]

Your welcome!

[@DaveAndBeth1978]

On paper, a collab between the loveably eccentric Bjork and the quiet, shy David Arnold should never have worked - but....... Epic tune!

[@robatkinson6915]

I haven't heard this track in years, WOW. My Spotify account just took a kicking.

[@lufc2me]

God !!! Bjork is gorgeous !!

[@miico7251]

My Power Song

[@chrisleaf7683]

One of the best songs ever written x Bjork is the business

[@paulatienza1181]

Nowadays artists and singers are not even up to the level of bjork she is by far one of the best artists in the last 100 years. She just exudes so much brilliant music

[@Leon-lt5gv]

She showed these boys & girl bands of the 90s how its done 🫡

[@reinhardtpeter3001]

Masterpiece! Sad that she didn't more songs like this!

[@christophedubois7812]

Bjork est sublime dans ce clip vidéo

[@califinn]

First time I heard this song, I think I stopped the disc and listened to it again like 5 times in a row. It floored me.

[@anaemiczombie]

You should listen to the full album, its so good

[@anaemiczombie]

SHIT sorry accidentally replied to the wrong person 😭

[@amalakin4444]

bro bjork is for people that make music almost like a sade. esk vibe to this track

[@DitaNoire]

Best song of Bjork.Its like you are in different world when you listen to this song.I remember when MTv plated her songs and they were all strange and then this one came along and it was like the best song of that year.

[@peternicholls6532]

One of my all time favourite songs...Bjork.. in harmony with a symphony of music...

[@judeross3875]

Thank you so much for uploading. I had been relistening to her album and this is a favourite xx

[@dazzyman]

One of the best films I saw as a teen highly underated and the trailers are rubbish. Nightmare to get ahold of on Blu-ray for UK and a film which became true decades later inlondin and UK and Bjorks best song

[@killerkalleausmkiez1676]

She is a mix of central asian turkish and nordic

[@ANonymous-p5x5n]

Would have been an excellent Bond theme song

[@InaJackson-zm3fb]

Harris Thomas Robinson Joseph Young Gary

[@MK-ih6wp]

She looks so young here!

[@Tony-iu7sw]

[@Pob2278]

[@8dust666]

With ur wishful thinking

[@patrickdodd908]

David arnold is truly 100percent a genius i love everything he does, he can take any song any artist and make it sound epic he does bond themes and othernthings but youll onow his sound when you hear it. Listen too the propellerheads_ on her kajesties secret service ft.david arnold and youll hear that thumping sound or charlies ajgels 2 soundtrack Pink real good time ft.David Arnold

[@DafneOfeliaVallström-h3d]

The 1990s had a style perfection to it, unpresidented to this very day. This video reveals that.

[@scruffynerd84]

Jean Reno in Bjork video while Bjork's song Venus as a boy was used in the Movie The professional starring Jean Reno. nice.

[@viva190_]
