[@SpawnSixThirteen]

If y'all really want to hear Björk belt out some incredible vocals, I HIGHLY suggest one of my other favorites "All is Full of Love". Anyway, I loved watching Smokey's face while he's trying to understand the video lmao

[@Hollywood6IX]

Not Pulse thank you so much for all your love and support. We love Bjork and we have to thank you for introducing us to a new one we never heard by her. This was a good one. Much love brother

[@erikahlander3489]

Contemporary with Björk there was another child of the punk from another Nordic country, Sweden, named Mare Kandre. Also with a very personal style. She made two albums with the group Global Infantilists. She later turned into a quite famous novelist and died young. Their music never reached America and are largely forgotten in Sweden. Do you dare to check a song with 1000 views? "Passing" is one of my favourites.

[@Alix777.]

Human Behavior has wild Björk vocals too...

[@rafatrev5007]

“I Play Dead” is a must listen from Björk

[@Eggmanrocks]

You did not see the very end it stranger

[@vegasviking86]

When I was in preschool my family lived in the apartment under Björk. Dad is really good friends with her ex. I remember hanging out and playing PC games with her son. She's a sweetheart. Weird, but a sweetheart nonetheless. Shout out to Reykjavík... miss my hometown

[@AquaticStarchild]

Reykjavík rokkar. She's here waiting for you, currently wet, windy and miserable.

[@andytruett9955]

Omg you are the luckiest person ever!!

[@sugary_placenta5499]

Lucky

[@crawdadnc479]

She's from Iceland. She was in a band called the Sugarcubes before going solo. They cut the end off this video. After the explosion, she goes back inside the ruined museum, and that dude she put the bomb next to is waking up (still laying there, despite the bomb), like he was just taking a nap. They hug, and she cries tears of happiness, but her tears are little diamonds. Her sound is always electronic, but she's constantly trying new things. Sometimes it's kind of industrial like this, sometimes it gets real trippy. She's always doing new stuff.

[@carbon-m8]

Yes! I was looking for this comment.

[@franciscoramirez4179]

Bjork is an ARTIST! she is weird, unique and AWESOME!

[@muzikkification]

Bjork has such a great and diverse catalogue. Definitely worth diving down the rabbit hole!

[@duffelbag1127]

Björk is the GOAT female artist! Her voice and creativity run circles around all others. IMHO

[@jasonkidd1689]

💯

[@dvus1977]

She wrote this song for her Brother. He was dealing with Depression and other mental health issues. However, in Icelandic (Scandinavian) culture they tend to not dwell in self pity/doubt and so she Made this to Wake Him Up (metaphorically).

[@lagedz]

WOW. Thank you, Danny! That's something to really think about.

[@AquaticStarchild]

Yeah, up here people believe in the (now scientifically proven) home remedy of going for a walk. I mean, we still pop the most anti-depressants on Earth but they seem to be working, we also rank at the top along with the other pill-popping Nordics. Prosperity and peace might also have something to say in that.

[@alanikeiser]

I read that she wrote the song for her kid that didn’t want to go to bed…

[@joelockard7174]

First time I heard of Bjork was a song called 'Human Behavior' when it was on MTV back in 93 or 94. Always loved her voice. Maybe folks will request more songs for you guys I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

[@shinaji08]

mine was hidden place on mtv. I got goosebumps and the music video gave me really weird kinda scary vibe but I just couldn’t get it off my mind since then. I didn’t know who she was, or the name of the song. A year later or so, i decided to some research to look for that mv. I listened to her other songs. I was so glad that I found her. She’s not for everyone but she’s so amazing.

[@Kevin_Fiol]

Great morning gents! Here's a fun story for you... I lived in Iceland from 86-88 when my dad was stationed there in the Navy, I was 14-16yo at the time. Bjork was just getting started with her first band, the Sugarcubes. The entire island only had 100,000 people on it, so there aren't a lot of places for a band to play. Needless to say, they played the USO club on base at least once a month. Since we were the only people even remotely close to her age going to see her play, we ended up hanging out quite a bit. She'd even buy pitchers of beer and bring them to our table and we'd all get drunk, then watch her play lolol :)

[@peterrabbit7173]

You lucky bastard!

[@Reani71]

Björk had a band in the late 80s/early 90s called The Sugarcubes, they were pretty rad. I suggest you check out some of their songs as well. 'Birthday' or 'Deus' would be great, thanks.

[@jindas4217]

That is a band name I have not heard in YEARS! 😳😳😳😳👍👍👍👍👍 Yeah, definitely pretty cool.

[@lindacoy7165]

This song was from the “Tank Girl” movie. Talk about weird…it was in a post-apocalyptic world and Ice-T was this kangaroo man in it. The video for “Human Behavior” is really weird too. It does not sound industrial.

[@intotheabyss42478]

i remember it from Sucker Punch!

[@shifterbbr1986]

@@intotheabyss42478 Hell yeah, the Sucker punch video version is way better too. 👍

[@Denashi]

Human Behaviour, Violently Happy, Hyperballad, Hunter, Joga, Bachelorette, Enjoy - just a few suggestions for more great songs by Björk!

[@NeekoSpoon]

Absolutely second Hyper Ballad, beautifully dark and sweet at the same time. I connected so much with that song

[@ASMRyouVEGANyet]

Pagan poetry

[@DiZastur]

ah Violently Happy, that's the first Bjork song I ever heard, was trying to remember

[@DiZastur]

oh no, upon further research it was Big time Sensuality awesome video, woke a dulled soul

[@riyintocco]

She did an album that was entirely a’capella. Like all beat boxing and other unique vocal deliveries. “Who Is It” is a fantastic track from that record. Check it out if you get a chance 🙌🏻

[@stevepower9801]

Great to see you guys listening to Bjork. I've been a fan of hers for many years now. She's such a unique and incredible artist. She's also amazing live. May have been worth you listening to just the song before watching the video, as that video is so crazy it can distract you from how amazing the song is. So many great songs you could check out by her including Hyper Ballad, Big Time Sensuality, Play Dead, Bachelorette, Joga, All Is Full Of Love, Pluto, Hidden Place and Pagan Poetry just to name a small handful. Also well worth checking out is the Icelandic band she was in from the 80s to early 90's called The Sugarcubes. They were massively underrated. They did some great songs too such as "Deus", "Birthday" and "Hit".

[@metalguru85]

That beat would not be out of place in a Nine Inch Nails track. Her hit I remember is 'Its Oh So Quiet' her catalogue is pretty diverse. You should do some Sigor Ros!

[@musicaddict5076]

I can’t even imagine them listening to Sigur Ros lol. They are one of my favorites though.

[@sentenced03]

human behavior is one of my favorite songs by her

[@akirytkonen2380]

The production on this track is insane!!

[@freyjagudjonsdottir4261]

Now I am kind of proud, because I am icelandic, and I love watching you guy's react to music. I never thought you would react to Björk.

[@mistymichelle9957]

🤯 I never realized she was so much older than me! My younger brother loves her, so I figured he would've told me... "It's Oh So Quiet" is *definitely* worth the listen. I love her as an artist, but I adore her as a person. P.L.U.R.R. from ATX!!

[@bwalker-mu1ti]

Hunter and Joga are 2 songs of hers I would definitely check out. especially the Jools Holland live versions

[@smokeyverton7981]

Bjork so famous she even had her own stalker, Ricardo Lopez

[@stephanieb.8270]

I am always down for some Bjork!

[@Ogr3-22]

Everytime I hear this tune, the music totally gives me NIN vibes. Great reaction fellas.

[@andytruett9955]

Bjork literally inspired my creative abilities 1000 times than it was. She introduced realms in my brain that I never new I had. She’s one of my idols.

[@MrJapanApan]

You should check out more of Bjork. She is one cool cat and truely unique. Her song ´Joga´ is a masterpiece. And after that: Portishead! (Glorybox, Roads, Mysterons)

[@MICjordanTPR]

This video might be the most perfect realization of dream logic I've ever seen. It literally is like a dream.

[@jeeteippii]

Björk is such an unique artist. If you are gonna do more her, I´ll defintely be here. She is so coooool.

[@ARASNshane]

That hit is probably “It’s Oh So Quiet.” At least that’s the first one I remember. It’s also a cover.

[@SugarcatPlays]

She has such a great voice, this video is wicked

[@kristaspecht]

Morning! Yes I loved this song! But I was confused by the video too! Lol. Rad song though!! Thanks guys!🤓❤️

[@celsus7979]

More Bjork!

[@amandalamb5724]

Bjork is awesome. Definitely need to check out more!

[@carbon-m8]

This video cuts off the ending, which leaves out an important part! As for the collaboration, it is the perfect fusion. Michel Gondry is a master of cinema as Bjork is a master of sound.

[@Chunchbox]

Shout out to Not Pulse and Trash Talkers! You fired off my brain hole with this one, had to go into my music vault and find Army Of Me(Tricky's Remix), this takes me back! On that note, Tricky(out of the UK) would be one to dive into, I would suggest Poems, or maybe Five Man Army(with Massive Attack).

[@SpawnSixThirteen]

Yes. Tricky and Massive Attack are 🤌 I love "Inertia Creeps" and "Butterfly Caught".

[@davidmassey6332]

The remix they did of the song, for the Sucker Punch soundtrack is awesome!

[@mourningwoodward]

Björk did everything from '80s anarchopunk (with her pre-Sugarcubes band KUKL, signed to CRASS Records no less) to pioneering '90s trip-hop and carving out her very own avant-garde niche. A true musical maverick and an untouchable sonic goddess. She's a force of nature.

[@lenoraclemm1892]

She is a very unique genre-bending artist you can't pigeon hole. An artist's artist and a musician's musician. Love her .. she is always innovating something new but not new for the sake of new.

[@bteusch]

I hope someone pointed out the ending of the video was cut off: Her boy in the museum wakes up. She rescued him.

[@mattboselli1099]

Never really listened to this band or song but you guys put me on to something new

[@Godikin]

Haha smokey's face, he's like "wtf... this video is trippin me out" lol

[@SquirrelSeb84]

She's got a very interesting, diverse discography if you decide to dig deeper. It would also be interesting if y'all reacted to Sigur Rós.

[@tedsmith7814]

Nice! “Zombie Eaters” by Faith No More would be a good one to react to.

[@elyse7509]

Mannn, I first discovered her by chance. I randomly picked her album up because I thought it looked cool and fell in love. I think i was about 15 or so

[@eZTarg8mk2]

Bjork has some awesome tracks. Bit of crossover with triphop and then stuff that is almost entirely her own thing...she's very unique

[@richardbird9725]

what first brought attention to bjork was the song 'birthday', by her then-band the sugarcubes. if you dig her voice, this will bring you to your knees. you HAVE to listen to this song

[@betsdakreator]

Love this jam SuckerPunch soundtrack The other song on this soundtrack got these vibes too.

[@redbandita020]

Her concert with a symphony orchestra and Inuit chorus in the Amsterdam Carree around 2001 was the most amazing gig of my life.

[@thenicoleb9127]

just stumbling upon ya'll and i love it here lol love me some bjork

[@robtintelnot9107]

She will always be remembered for the airport incident. Haha

[@mendyrckz76]

🦋 First & foremost, Hope You Both Are Feeling Better. I Must Be Trippin' Because in this video she is getting dental work. Same side she was holding, It has been bothering me for the last 2 days. I'm Going in today at 3 what a strange coincidence. Love Listening To Bjork She Is A Beautiful Soul. I get a Sense of her coming to revelation's because she continues to say she's tired of listening to the complaining. The Entire Video Is a Twisted Metaphor. And her music is so Diverse. Great Reaction! Definitely Lookin' Forward to watching more Bjork in the coming future guys. 🦋You both keep talking about Prince I am definitely Looking Forward To That One Day, Some Day, Any Day Lol. Even Though You Both know the music. It would Still Be Very Entertaining. My Mother Loves Prince She Has So Much Prince Stuff Its Not Even Funny. When me & my sister was young it was The Beatles Or Prince continuously playing in our house when our dad was away long hours working for The State Road. And we have always loved Prince Because Of Our Mother. I Own The Albums, Movies, Cd's, I absolutely Love all his music/movie's ''Under The Cherry Moon'' is my favorite. It Seriously Would Be A Great Reaction Series Watching you both going thru All Of His Discography.

[@carolmillins9199]

Great reaction boys, I love Bjork😍

[@Reo805]

That intro was everything 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jasonmgomez]

The band Helmet's cover of this song is one of my absolute favorite songs ever.

[@pugshorty9852]

Excellent choice.

[@tedsmith7814]

The old Betty Hutton version of “It’s oh so quiet” is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@MC-jw7ny]

mid nineties and still feels like the sound of the future! i am sooo happy I rew up in the nineties and that I "grew up" with björk, she remains a visionary and an artistic and musical mastermind.

[@7thSmurf]

its always these goddamn rappers!! 8) luv it !

[@72Gaslight]

I was first introduced to Björk when she released the single for "Human behaviour". I was working as adj at a rock club in central Gothenburg (Sweden) and we played a lot of alternative/indie rock and pop music. A friend of mine presented me with the single and I listened to it for like 10-15 seconds and just knew it was the right song to play. And the remixes she had were always interesting.

[@christiandent7211]

The video puts you off her amazing vocals.

[@carycrosbie7578]

I heard this song on the Tank Girl soundtrack was so kick ass with the film!

[@cinnabonbons]

“Cosmogony” and “Dull Flame of Desire” are my two underrated Björk faves. 👌

[@mercedogre]

Bjork was former singer for The Sugarcubes

[@darkwyng98]

It's been awhile since I watched the video for that song. Pretty sure everytime it would come on I'd tune out to the visuals just enjoy the sounds. Little further down someone mentioned 'Human Behaviour' by her, definitely worth a listen.

[@nathanclarke2777]

Seriously Smokie knows tons of trivia and I love it!

[@Kurdinov83]

Bjork can whipe the floor with Sinead O´Connor and Dido

[@mouseshadow5828]

7:23 shocked confusion 😂

[@wazza1085]

She definitely moves to the beat of her own drum. You should hear her talking about her TV. There's a KZbin clip out there, it's hilarious. I could listen to her talk for hours!

[@duncansolloway2497]

HELMET did a cover of this for an ocean benefit album-music for our mother ocean which also featured NO DOUBT covering BAD BRAINS

[@maureenwagg5305]

Yaaassss! Love love love Bjork.

[@russellcleave1435]

"All is full of love" is incredible and one of the greatest music videos ever made

[@Brotha_Teresa]

Tank Girl Soundtrack! I think the song you guys were thinking of is “Human Behavior”. It was all over MTV in the early-mid 90’s.

[@sorensmith9873]

Featured in 1995 movie Tank Girl, is actually a really cool movie soundtrack with a bunch of alternative artists..and Ice-T who is also in the movie

[@MattKrogmeier]

There is a fantastic cover of this track by The Great Discord. Singer Fia Kempe absolutely slays it!

[@evaetterer6000]

Hi bro's, Björk is realy great and you must listen to the song It's all so....... , i dont know how to writing it ! Greatings and love from germany ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

One of best for sure!!

[@peckish_tooth6515]

Straight from her own mouth during an interview: "Rhymes with jerk". (Byerk)

[@heidi82]

How the heck did I miss this reaction...I freaking love Bjork. You should react to her song Hyperballad .

[@kisakis1]

Please react to Atopos, Björk just released it just last month. And it is such a feast for the eyes and ears 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌😍🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@othelo989]

Massive Attack made this beat for her.

[@marc825]

Great reaction! You should react to Rivers of Nihil - Where Owls Know My Name (official video) and/or Polyphia - Goat (official video). Both songs are great and reactors always love them. You'll enjoy them. Trust me. You'll regret not doing them earlier.

[@NairBisson-gr1kz]

Una vez me dijeron eres igual a Björk 💜😍mi autoestima al cielo 😎💜👍👍👍👍👍

[@richardadubatojr1638]

just a heads up fellas she has also done work with rza

[@Hollywood6IX]

😲😲😲

[@johnladd8421]

might be your thinking of SUGARCUBES. That was her band before her solo carrier. I think the song is called BIRTHDAY. cool song.

[@lighteffort3218]

Great video! Here are a couple of quotes where Bjork explains the video a little more: “I thought I should be driving a very, very big truck to try to wake this person who's asleep, so I get the biggest truck in the world, and I'm so mad I've got metallic teeth, because when you're really angry, you grind your teeth. So I have to go to the dentist…” and then “…in the video for "Army of Me", wants a dentist that's a gorilla to find a diamond in my mouth, some people call it nonsense. But it's probably the most realistic way of expressing what situation I'm in - all these people trying to take things away from me, and the gorilla finding a diamond that I don't know I have and then stealing it. "Army of Me" is so much about me actually learning that I have to defend myself. I have to stand up and fight the fucking gorilla. Once I've got the diamond and I run away with it, it becomes massive 'cos it's mine. But if the gorilla had kept it, it would have gone really tiny. That's surrealism for me.” I hope that elucidates the meaning of the video a bit! Bjork is one of my favorites and it’s so cool to hear other people give their take/show appreciation for her music.

[@ASMRyouVEGANyet]

You should look up the diamond in the mouth. Very interesting explanation she gives about it being a treasure from her mouth. The gorilla tries to steal it and to him it's small because it's not from him, he doesn't have to wrestle with it. But when she gets it back from him, it's hers again and it gets bigger and bigger because it's a beautiful burden.

[@stephaniebedworth2470]

I highly recommend her song, Bachelorette. I think her biggest hit over here was probably Human Behavior, which came out in '93.

[@group-music]

Bjork's first solo albums that were widely available started with the album "Debut" in 1993.

[@nickdanger108]

Portishead! Definitely need to check out that band. Trip Hop beats with awesome female lead vocalist.

[@JH-lo9ut]

The video is directed by Michel Gondry. He did a lot of music videos and a even some feature films in this style. Check out the song " human behavior" by Björk. That video is also directed by Gondry.

[@willfromyadkinville]

i love her!

[@David-fj3kn]

this is a long shot but youll should check Pupl - Common People, this Bjork track is still a killer all these years on . Bjork did a collab with Timbaland for Earth Intruders , well worth a listen

[@David-fj3kn]

Pulp - Common People

[@j.lahtinen7525]

I see the video for this song as being a depiction of a dream - it totally has dream-logic, jumping from one odd thing to another.

[@PaulHanney]

Bjork's biggest hit was it's oh so quiet in 1995. The song was originally sung by Betty Hutton in 1951.

That's cool, I never knew it was a cover
