      My Daughter loves her to the point she says she will cry if Bjork was to die. I possibly would too. I cried 2 weeks over Michael Jackson, about a month for Prince.
      Prince also very creative, a shame most of his *_many genre's of music_* as much as he made wasn't put out enough. I have well over 1200 of his songs - demos, live performances, unreleased _(even lousy songs)._ I'll play Prince literally a month and never hear the same songs twice.
      Also a shame Bjork's *_multi-genre music_* isn't put out enough here in USA. When I mention Bjork to people, if they know one thing about her - the _long ago _*_Swan dress_* she wore to the Grammy's.
      They truly don't appreciate her creativity until they hear Me playing Bjork's music.
      Bjork & Prince are true visionaries being able to bring their hard work to life.

    I am so happy to have discovered Bjork today. I find her music, and these new videos, to be wonderful (full of wonder).

This is why a sapling (baby tree) can grow in total shade because it is sent nutrients from the mother tree through the fungus networks. Bjork is using this as a metaphor for human connection.

Especially as a big percentage of these are covered by this single line.

If you don't why just this one? And tbh my opinion is that the lyrics sound like something a 15 year old person who want peace between everybody and no hatred in the whole world could have write. I don't hear anything relevant for the adult I'am. Long time fan and imo lyrics on post were way better than this I don't understand this "let's all hold hands and live in peace without any differences between people" from someone who wrote Joga wich is a very beautiful song about friendship without being naÏve.

      and? is that so wrong? the lyric is about how trying to rule with no emotion kills humanity.

      @@ot2081 Baeutiful message indeed and yes I would like peace and no hatred in the world it's just that the way she wrote it and this idea that our differences doesn't matters if we just "connect" that is not what I expect from someone as talented as Bjork. A band like a Silver mount zion has very very beautiful and subtle lyrics about the way humanity's lack of love for each other and imo they are much more subtle and poetic. Anyway Bjork alway been about the music and her best lyrics are the one that Sjon wrote.

    I get that this isn’t a traditional “pop” song that Bjork fans from the late 90s/early 2000s want, but all of the comments talking about how there’s no melody or whatever are really missing the mark, in my opinion. This is the catchiest song she’s put out since some songs from Biophilia. It’s incredibly melody-driven and punchy. Maybe the melody isn’t immediately obvious on the first couple of listens but once it clicks in your memory you’ll find yourself singing it in your head at work.
