I didn't like this song until I saw this live version, and now I love it lol. Listened with headphones which is a whole new level, haha. Her energy is amazing.
Volta is like witnessing a massive explosion of all the colours you can imagine. Those colours reach you and surround you. You can't help it to do anything but dance. :D Thank you so fuckin' very much, Björk.
Looking back in hindsight, why did people hate this album? It’s the last "Björk" sounding album she’s made. Biophilia and the other two she’s made since then have been just okay compared to the fire that was at the core of Volta.
Well, what does "Björk sounding" exactly mean? I don't think it means anything. It's an illusionary label. Look at her career. There's not one single album sounding like the other ones, she constantly evolved. Volta is an incredibly amazing album, but so are the following three albums she did. Utopia is possibly the best album she's ever released so far.
This is really funny to me given that “Vulnicura” and “Utopia” are literally reimaginings of “Homogenic” and “Vespertine”. First, a string-and glitchy-beats album about a heartbreak, grief and the others' irresponsibility, and then a more delicate orchestral album about love, intimacy, insecurity and vulnerability. Some songs are direct parallels even-“Stonemilker” is musically “Jóga 2”, and “Future Forever” is so obviously a sequel to “All Is Full of Love”. I do agree that “Volta” fucking rules! But I spent two weeks listening to “Body Memory” on repeat and I won't stand for contemporary Björk slander, lmao.
I think it was on purpose, though it did sound like she decided it on the spot. When singing an improvised run, sometimes it's hard to know exactly how it's gonna feel in your throat, so it can sound like you're adjusting your way through.
the power of the creativity of the spirit in us. the beloved Child of the Great Grandfather God. this can no longer be repressed. let there be apocalyse. LET there be disaster. it was be not the destruction of US or of nature it will be the frustration of the rulers. it will be their confounding. it will be THEIR undoing.
It's pretty different to hear such shockingly violent lyrics being inflected through a very feminine character. I mean, if say.. ACDC or Metallica or Foo Fighters sang these lyrics they'd be... censored.
after the universal medullah, where everyone is opened up to reveal the same dark blood inside - hence the voice-only composition - volta is a return to diversity; an explosion of colour and exotic sounds. earth intruders in like an ode to playful disaster. you can't hear it and not dance and bellow the lyrics, tbh
"I have guided my bones through some voltage,
And love them still" - amazing lyric.
So glad there’s another person out there that gets that lyric too! ✨ Always loved it
what does it mean😭

Ugh. So amazing, so amazing. I wish I could see her live.
STILL THE EMPRESS OF ALL
One of her best shows of her career! The audience’s energy was there and she was on fire!!

Declare Independence is WAY better live and Earth Intruders also :-)

This music is for a little sector of people. So good
Why didn’t she sing the “steamroller” part? That’s literally my favorite
