    She's a Classically trained musician that went against the grain. Using electronic drum loops, synthesisers, while composing classical elements for her songs. Has an amazing soprano vocal range. Lyrical concepts of her songs are completely out there. She's a complete truest purest form of artist! There will never be anyone else like her. An absolute genius

    If I ever feel suicidal I go listen to this song and express it. I let myself cry. I don’t care what others think, I’m not going to hide it anymore! I’m going to express my feelings, not pretend they don’t exist, not pretend I’m fine! I feel so much better after a good cry. Thank you Björk for your beautiful masterpieces and helping me through thoughts like these.

    Lyrics
    Darling, stop confusing me
    With your wishful thinking
    Hopeful embraces
    Don't you understand?
    I have to go through this, I belong to here
    Where no one cares and no one loves
    No light, no air to live in
    A place called Hate, The City of Fear
    I play dead, it stops the hurting
    I play dead and the hurt stops
    It's sometimes just like sleeping
    Curling up inside my private tortures
    I nestle into pain
    Hug suffering, caress every ache
    I play dead, it stops the hurting
    I play dead, it stops the hurting
    I play dead, it stops the hurting
    I play dead, it stops the hurting

    No one can be in my age group and not have heard of Human Behavior at some point, but tell me how this amazing song escaped me? I heard a few moments of it and added it to my modern easy listening playlist, and kept circling back to it falling more and more in like with it. Ward Rutherford (see comment below) was absolutely correct, this would be the ultimate Bond song, I love her eclectic vocal pattern, the throbbing sensual beat and then the lush orchestra to tame it all back into submission...well done, Bjork! I searched much of her library and found nothing similar, which smacks of Kate Bush, quite similar in many ways, and both far ahead of their time...both artists for artists.

  • @Elricwulf

    This video needs more Björk and less other people. It would be more powerful with just her singing, filmed in this film noir style. For movie cut scenes, you need a context to relate to, however, for Björk, as soon as she starts to sing, no other emotional context is required. This is such an amazing song I always come back to.

    With your wishful thinking
    Hopeful embraces
    Don't you understand?
    I have to go through this
    I belong to here where
    No one cares, and no one loves
    No light no air to live in
    A place called hate
    The city of fear

    I play dead
    It stops the hurting
    I play dead
    And the hurt stops
    [Verse 2]
    It's sometimes just like sleeping
    Curling up inside my private tortures
    I nestle into pain
    Hug suffering
    Caress every ache
    [Chorus]
    I play dead
    It stops the hurting
    I play dead
    It stops the hurting
    I play dead
    It stops the hurting
    I play dead
    It stops the hurting
    I play dead
    It stops the hurting

    As a 52 yr old texas metal head Ican say Bjork is a fallen angel sent to torment us with the beautiful agony of her music.

    " "Play Dead" is a song by Icelandic singer Björk, released as the only single from the soundtrack of the 1993 crime drama The Young Americans. It was not included in the first edition of Debut but was later included as a bonus track, and the album was re-issued in November 1993.
    "Play Dead", inspired by the main character of the film, was released on 11 October 1993 and charted within the top 20 in Denmark, Iceland, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. An accompanying music video was released, featuring images from the film. "Play Dead" was included in Björk's 2002 greatest hits album Greatest Hits."

    Oh Björk how you accurately understand my venus in 12th 💔 even without trying to your moon in 12th has completely conveyed my heart breaking and under 💧 ♥️ you are the only one who truly gets me emotionally, for me it is tough to have a voice that can shout loud about all that I go though, I am a Taurus so I am more silent vespertine like. Your songs “crying” & “violently happy” show as well how deep hurt can go, and “come to me” is the purest part of my venus 12th in where that is the love that I am seeking from another and that I do give in return. - I do often think you are my twin flame because the feelings I feel are so raw as the way you portray, you say everything I wish I had the courage to say and i feel truly understood listening to you calms my heart

    I was born in 94' and i was too young to have experienced the 90s yet i feel a great affinity with that era... Everything went completely wrong post-2012 anyway. But 90s were the last breath...
    All this technology let me access the pieces of this era and yet this technology ruined my life and many more...

      I was born in '94 and I feel the same way, even though I kept on listening strictly to pre and very early 2000s music (personally, it's in 2005 that I felt the break point). In 2021 I'm trying to add also more recent stuff to my collection and I must say there's still hope for music

    Björk - The Icelandic Queen of Alternative Pop
    Björk Guðmundsdóttir (born 21 November 1965) is an Icelandic singer, songwriter, composer, record producer and actress. Over her four-decade career, she has developed an eclectic musical style that draws on influences and genres including electronic, pop, jazz, experimental, trip hop, alternative, classical, and avant-garde music. Born and raised in Reykjavík, Björk began her music career at the age of 11 and gained international recognition as the lead singer of the alternative rock band the Sugarcubes. After the band's breakup in 1992, Björk embarked on a solo career, coming to prominence with albums such as Debut (1993), Post (1995), and Homogenic (1997), while collaborating with a range of artists and exploring a variety of multimedia projects. Her other albums include Vespertine (2001), Medúlla (2004), Volta (2007), Biophilia (2011), Vulnicura (2015) and Utopia (2017). Several of Björk's albums have reached the top 20 on the US Billboard 200 chart. As of 2015, she had sold between 20 and 40 million records worldwide. 31 of her singles have reached the top 40 on pop charts around the world, with 22 top-40 hits in the UK, including the top-10 singles "It's Oh So Quiet", "Army of Me", and "Hyperballad" and the top-20 singles "Play Dead", "Big Time Sensuality", and "Violently Happy". Her accolades and awards include the Order of the Falcon, five BRIT Awards, and 15 Grammy nominations. In 2015, Time named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Rolling Stone named her the 60th greatest singer and the 81st greatest songwriter. Björk starred in the 2000 Lars von Trier film Dancer in the Dark, for which she won the Best Actress Award at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival,[9] and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song for "I've Seen It All". Biophilia was marketed as an interactive app album with its own education program. Björk has also been an advocate for environmental causes in Iceland. A retrospective exhibition dedicated to Björk was held at the New York Museum of Modern Art in 2015. As a big fan of this wonderful and unique Icelandic singer, I am honored to have in my discography the first four albums in CD format: (Debut [1993] three units), Post [1995] three units, too), (Homogenic [1997] also three units on CD), (Vespertine [2001], two units, also in CD format), (Greatest Hits [2002], also two copies in CD format) and, finally, I have the unmistakable album, also in format CD, Biophilia (2011), also two copies in CD format. Altogether there are fifteen albums. I had more Björk studio albums but I offered. I love Bjork. I consider myself one of Björk's big fans, and I wish her to stay in the music business for many more years! ❤️💯‼️

      "Play Dead"
      [Intro]
      Oh, oh
      [Verse 1]
      Darling, stop confusing me
      With your wishful thinking
      Hopeful embraces
      Don't you understand?
      I have to go through this
      I belong to here where
      No one cares, and no one loves
      No light no air to live in
      A place called hate
      The city of fear
      [Chorus]
      I play dead
      It stops the hurting
      I play dead
      And the hurt stops
      [Verse 2]
      It's sometimes just like sleeping
      Curling up inside my private tortures
      I nestle into pain
      Hug suffering
      Caress every ache
      [Chorus]
      I play dead
      It stops the hurting
      I play dead
      It stops the hurting
      I play dead
      It stops the hurting
      I play dead
      It stops the hurting
      I play dead
      It stops the hurting
      Writer(s): Björk, John Wardle, Arnold, Guðmundsdóttir
