Hyperballad - Robyn (Björk Cover)

[@someothername7886]

I would be so nervous performing a cover knowing the original artist is in the audience

[@TheAzerath]

@@madshader as many others have pointed out throughout the comments, Bjork herself has used these same lyrics for different performances. Nice try though.

[@anthonygeorge8088]

I feel like this is such a difficult song to sing in the first place. The main vocals sets the tone and pace of the song. The background music follows. The voice leads it. Plus singing it in front of Bjork herself. I give it up to Robyn.

[@igloozoo3771]

I think it could only work if a straight man sung it with a banjo and harmonica in country format so that it doesn't sound anything like an imitation. Sturgill Simpson!

[@VaduzVaduz]

Es que en realidad Bjork canta a contratempo a la Música de este tema, x eso la versión original es 1000 veces superior.

[@doulalina]

Bjork is the sweetest human alive, I’m sure she was greatly honored by this. Robyn and Bjork are both legends in their own right.

[@ricardobezerra2213]

You can see Björk holding tears. Robyn did her proud with this heartfelt delivery of the song. And I also think she's a perfect match to the emotional content of Hyperballad - this kind of explosive, dancy leaps of emotions here and there, matched with some northern twist in it (imagining yourself dead so you can feel happier for being alive, I can't imagine something more northern than that).

[@HarryPotter87]

She's overwhelmed with honor

Es una versión para ir a dormir, que la cantante Sueca siguió el tono y x su voz lo hizo correctamente, pero sin fuerza, el original de Bjork es poderoso y eso que termina la canción con instrumentos de cuerdas pero bien hecho.

2 titans of Scandinavian music - Robyn is not Bjork and that’s quite ok. It’s a tribute not an Idol competition and both their smiles are absolutely sincere in this video

[@mangethegamer]

Björk is from Iceland and Iceland is not part of Scandinavia. Scandinavia refers to the Scandinavian Peninsula(Norway and Sweden) + Denmark. Iceland is a part of the Nordics though (the Scandinavian countries + Finland, Iceland, Greenland and Faroe and Åland Islands)

@@mangethegamer to be fair, The definition of Scandinavia has 3 meanings depending on context. 1 includes Iceland, Finland, Faroe and Aland islands, that is the English usage form 2 is more limited and does not include the above, that's the Scandinavian cultural historic Scandinavian language form 3rd form is simply based on national/country level , anything under Norway Sweden or Denmark and dependant terrotories And that one would include Greenland, Faroe, Aland, but exclude finland or Iceland So it's all a bit right depending on who you talk to , what time of day, context and weather

[@hey.noah.]

People think that Björk is sitting there with a stone face, but if you look again, you can clearly see that she is listening. And the smile at the end of the song shows that she was very pleased. The fact that Björk handpicked Robyn to do the cover shows that if Björk didn't think she could do it, she wouldn't have picked Robyn at do it herself. As much as I love the original, this is a stunning cover. Thank you for uploading x

[@Skoben2000]

They truly are BOTH in a league of their own, and Bjork knew it. I FIRMLY believe that Bjork wanted to know what this would sound like ROBYN style. knowing she would both honor her and her song yet bring her own style.

[@ipresnell]

What an unbelievable cover. This might be one of the hardest bjork songs to cover and Robyn KILLED IT. I mean she had a symphony behind her but she still killed it.

[@LamarDandre]

She was singing the words wrong. She goes through a "list," not "all this." And to feel "Safe again, 'up here' with you." It's why she throws things down. Looks to me like Bjork was thinking, "This bitch is signing my song wrong..." I live Robyn, too.

[@wisemandaryn5953]

Björk's music is incredibly difficult to recreate or emulate. But Robyn approaches her artistry in much the same way and it takes this kind of consummate musician to adequately honor Björk's beautiful textures. You certainly don't see many performers in the mainstream attempt to cover Björk because her creations are rather intricate and require a degree of spontaneity that some artists just aren't capable of. Very few artists could manage to pull this off successfully.

Any negative reviews of this are grounded in the passionate nature of Bjork's fans (thinking no one can cover her music), and the amazing layers of this song in the studio and how hard it is to replicate on stage. Taken as live music, forgetting the album version, this is amazing!

[@naomi3557]

I'd argue that your review of this is grounded in the passionate nature of a Robyn fan. I've listened to, and enjoyed, Bjork covers, and given that I've only listened to a handful of her songs, I'd hardly say I'm a fanatic. But Robyn's cover just didn't hit in any of the same ways Bjork did, it feels improperly delivered and as though the lyrics & her emotions aren't matched. Your opinion is valid, but you don't get to imply that an opinion that contrasts yours is pretentious - that itself is pretentious

When I first heard this, I didn't like. After a while I could see that there's so much going on. It truly is about the moment. 1st of all Robyn is serenading the Queen herself who is siting in the front row. The other thing is the instrumentation, how amazing the orchestra sounds w/ those percussionists throwing down w/ the violinists,etc. It brings so much.Then the chick in the front row grooving out when everyone else seems dead and Robyn herself singing her heart out.She really pulls it off.

If I were Robyn in this situation, I would have been so nervous to perform one of Bjork's songs right in front of her. My voice would have been shaking relentlessly. Heck, I sang Thunderbolt for someone once and my voice shook like crazy. I wouldn't have been able to make a sound in front of Bjork!

This is probably one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written; compared to the original, I can see how some people would dislike it, but there's nothing wrong with this version and it's quite nice - it captures some of the 'oomph' and drive of the original certainly, and the string arrangement, though simple, is just as poignant.

They focus in music as an art form and not in record sales, they don't care to be mainstream and they don't look at music as a way to show their body parts so men can drool over them and women would want to be like them, they don't have to try hard (like Gaga) to be different and weird, they just dare to be be their true selves.
