Pagan Poetry - Björk - (Live at Royal Opera House)

[@dannymichael1640]

In my opinion this is one of her best songs ❤️

[@teh_Hiko]

quit being so politically correct and own it brother. Bjork wouldnt stand for this "In my opinion Nonsense" :] Find strength in her identity. This song is definitely amazing though.

i love how you can hear the desperation in her voice it makes me cry

[@thalesm4056]

I dont hear that

[@sorbetdessert6839]

because there is no desperation to be heard of

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

It's more doubt than desperation

[@shankiepup]

i feel it's about being in love. allowing yourself to be vulnerable and embracing those feelings despite the risk of being hurt. falling so deeply in love can be scary. what if it doesn't work out and you end up heartbroken? but if you adore something enough, the risk is worth it.

[@DenZerda]

Un amor ansiado, te entiendo y comparto las lágrimas 💖

[@marypalmer00]

I'm surprised an artist like Björk exists, her music just seems so insanely personal, feels weird to even be listening to it, like I'm intruding or something

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

Well all good deep music is personal

[@grimmvalentine6558]

I describe her similarly. I feel you

[@crying2emoji5]

I agree and I personally think that’s why a lot of people don’t “vibe” with her music. She has a way of expressing emotions that is difficult to describe, but it’s sort of deep and raw. Almost like she’s projecting the emotions into your mind.

Matmos and Zenna made something beautiful in the vespertine album. Really opened up a whole level of music for me

[@jamesdeansghost5531]

I have absolute and complete reverence for this artist. I watch in amazement and awe as she staggers my emotions with her intensity. A colossal genius the likes of which will never happen again...

[@MPresheva]

+Luciano Gutierrez That's exactly the feeling I have. Not only music, the whole design, attitude, costumes, visual ideas...amazing, authentic and never seen before. The real refreshment , every time I watch something new from her.

[@skyelark155]

Absolutely , a master piece ..... people don't understand her because she's ahead of her time

[@beatc]

i have the same sentiments, but i really can't agree with your last sentence. that seems awfully short-sighted.

[@jamesdeansghost5531]

beatniece My appreciation for your reply and apologize for making my comment seem so narrow minded. Allow me to elucidate. I don't believe there will ever be another Nordic female artist with that kind of artistic genius quality on such a global level. The way her voice sounds, that special look/style of hers and the structure/interpretation of her songs is as unique as Bowie's ever was. Just like there can never be another Bowie, there can never be another Bjork. It's that simple... they created their own style, sound and language.

[@skyelark155]

jamesdeansghost55 Absolutely agree, she is / was ahead of her time...period!

[@Kilpleztim]

I was listening to this song when my grandpa past away. It still to this day holds a special powerful place in my heart. As his last breath left his body this song played in my ears. He was the greatest man I ever knew. After more than 10 years this song still makes me cry. He will always be remembered by me and my blood line. RIP Luis F. Salas.

I love lyrics...so fantastic and mystic❤ je ne suis pas une actrice et je ne suis jamais apparue à la télévision. Je suis Kanako Matsuno, Je suis une femme née le 13/04/1984. (la fille de 幸彦Yukihiko et 奈美子Namiko, la sœur aînée de 峻Shun et 紗也Saya, la belle-petite-fille de 純子Junko, la petite-fille de 輝彦Teruhiko, et je vis avec le grand homme blanc yakuza Pijus Bacevicius, un criminel pervers et dissimulateur qui m'a violée il y a 13 ans et 2 ans, depuis 2 ans et 6 mois anormaux. Ma belle apparence a été complètement détruite et transplantée dans un clone humain artificiel). S'il vous plaît, ne me laissez pas dormir chez un clone humain TakakoHanda. L'autre jour, j'ai pointé du doigt les criminels qui ont commis un acte de meurtre en me mettant dans un coffre et en m'affaiblissant avec des radiations, mais ne sont-ils pas en train de mélanger à nouveau les incidents ? Quand ces abus et cette destruction sans fin et sans fondement prendront-ils fin ? . ? Depuis hier soir et ce matin, tout mon corps est à nouveau fatigué et endolori, et c'est étrange. Il n'y a eu aucune information diffusée selon laquelle les personnes qui me déplacent pendant que je dors sont des criminels. C'est probablement parce que les menteurs et les idiots de Tokyo, dont on dit qu'ils ont une faible capacité, ne partagent pas du tout l'horreur des incidents. Il semblerait que 半田貴子Takako Handa (meurtrière/clone humain), Pijus Bacevicius, la chanteuse coréenne Kara, 三浦春馬HarumaMiura, 小池百合子Yuriko Koike, les disciples de 麻原彰晃Shoukou Asahara, les trois actrices du drama français Cat's Eye et 薬師丸ひろ子Hiroko Yakushimaru aient à nouveau fait du mal à mon corps.

I saw her in Chicago with my dad in 2001. I remember because it was only a month after 9/11. October 14th, 2001 I think the exact date was. Did she come back the next year too? Or were you also at the Civic Opera House performance in 2001? I was 19 and I thought I had died and gone to heaven.
