      Christine no they aren’t close minded hey just have a different taste in music.

So why can’t they have an opinion in thinking it’s bad?

    this is about true love. how the reciprocation of compassion and "care" is not just a want, but a need. the part where she licks her fingers after each interaction with her partner signifies her want, her urging desire to give and receive more, and they continuously become one, forever and ever...

    Björk’s music isn’t exactly my cup of tea but this music video is very beautiful and interesting to looks at! I’ve never seen or heard anything like this before. Props to her and all the artists, dancers, producers and all the people who worked on this

      @Ramiro Garcia It literally says, word by word, “Props to HER and all the artists, dancers...” and so on. How did she not give props to Björk? Plus, don’t you think everyone else involved deserves any credit? You’re the disrespectful one.

      @inconspicuous-new--account Місяць тому

      How on Earth did you get it so wrong? It's not about love between two people. That's why there's only one person in the video. This is about Björk having love for Björk all by herself, and then the other figures are just fed upon. Energy forms, invited from her unwitting audience, to feed her vampiric hunger. That's why she is successful and wealthy. She takes the power from other people.

  • @xrpadoption3293

      If that is so, it's a major shame she has so little civic responsibility. For someone who is awake to perpetrate as much evil in the world is shameful, and brings a dark cloud over everyone else.

    LYRICS: My healed chestwound
    Transformed into a gate
    Where I receive love from
    Where I give love from
    And I
    Care for you, care for you, I care for you, care for you
    Care for you, care for you, I care for you, care for you
    Split into many parrrrrrrrrrrrts
    Splattered light beams into prisms
    That will reunite
    If you
    Care for me, care for me, if you care for me, care for me, care for me, care for me
    And then I'll care for you, care for you, I'll care for you, care for you
    I'll care for you, care for you, care for you, care for you.
    Didn't used to be so needy
    Just more broken than normal
    Proud self sufficiency
    My silhouette is oval
    It is a gate
    I can care for you, care for you from, I can care for you, care for you
    I care for you, care for you, I care for you, care for you, I care for you,
    care for you, you care for me, care for me, care for you

    You are sublime.
    You are a Goddess.
    Thank you for carrying me through darkness and light.
    I'm so grateful for everything you have given me, and will always love you.

      It would be nice if she could do that in this world too, instead of being one of those extremely dark fairies, that latches onto people, and sucks their life out of them. It makes it hard to believe she could ever be a benevolent faery. She has always been evil, with no sense of personal responsibility, for the horrors she perpetrates.

      @@anthonyd9844 I don't like to dwell on the evil too much. It's a way of being, more than anything. If you look up the speech she gave on June 16th last year, when she was receiving her honorary doctorate, she describes her method. Getting to learn the hearing of an animal far beneath you, which guides you. She says if you pay attention to it, it will return prosperity to you, but if you do not listen to it, you will become incomprehensibly lost, and experience suffering.
      I consider it to be a very valuable and important speech from which a lot of people could learn how to negotiate the world better by connecting with their intuition. If everyone was doing it, it would be a better world. That animal requires guidance though. She's just riding it to success, as it tramples on everything in its way, and she doesn't care enough to govern it any more tightly, because of that aforementioned suffering. That's a personal attitude. A lower sense of responsibility than most people have. Her view is that people should be looking after themselves, and if they aren't going to do that, then that is their fault.
      The problem is that when only Björk is doing it, she is reaping all the benefits, and because nobody else is doing it, they are losing the benefits. So she has generously explained her method. But despite explaining her method, she is introduced as being someone for whom the usual rules don't apply. She is just following a different set of rules from the usual rules.
      So, she is trying to be nice. However, the reason she knows how to do it, is because she is a ringer. She is not one of the usual people around this place. She has a cloud around her. Horrible things happen to people. I've spoken with some. I've observed others. I've heard about some from professionals in the mental health profession, and also from the news. People can end up dead, as was shown with Ricardo. He's the most prominent case, because he was a very widely publicised suicide. He made sure to leave many hours of footage to explain himself. Most people, you just never hear about.
      Obviously, if you are only thinking in terms of how the people of the 21st century like to live, then it is hard to spot evil, because they have more or less turned their back on ethics, except as a way of avoiding trouble with the police. However, if you work in more eldritch arenas, she becomes a lot more blatantly obvious.

    I listened to Terence McKenna for 4 hours at work today and then I come home and get to experience this.. These are exciting times indeed when the work that these visionaries have done and are still doing is able to be consumed so readily. If only the majority of people could still themselves long enough and let go of enough ego to allow their perception to shift so that they 'get it' , the 'real world' would be a far less frustrating place to come back to each day..
