Finally someone who thinks Saint is the best track from Utopia. Congrats on finishing her discography, don’t forget to check her b-sides, live performances and music videos.
Finally justice for Utopia!! I loved it at first listen, and couldnt understand the "hate" that it received. We share the points on Arisen, Loss, Saint. So glad to have followed you on this journey! This video popped in and i had to start the series till this point. You have openness on what you are receiving and understanding on music, and that is a great thing to see on these kind of videos, specially the last one.
For the Björk’s discography video you can listen before her podcast “sonic symbolism” where she talks about each album in every episode: the story, influences, sounds, lyrics, etc. very amazing stuff, makes you have more context and appreciation for all of her albums, even Volta haha
Hey Lugga, it's been a hot minute! My favorite tracks on this album are Tabula Rasa, Arisen My Senses, Utopia, Courtship, and Blissing Me (which just recently grew on me). I'm also including Allow from Fossora since it was originally recorded for this album. Not too shabby considering I still only like three songs from Biophilia (my least favorite album of Bjork's). Admittedly, Bjork's highly experimental period (2004-2017) is less accessible overall which made Fossora such a breath of fresh, mycelienated air.
@@gxngy6612 Virus is sublime. Best track on that album. Crystalline and Hollow are also very good. Everything else feels less like a real song and more of an experiment in soundscapes for the accompanying app. It's very Mrs. Frizzle makes music in space for the local planetarium exhibit and its corresponding visitor's app.
@@got2bjosh That’s fair! Virus and hollow both have their own little beats that make them incredible. I think it’s good to also appreciate songs like Moon, solstice, and cosmogony for their sheer beauty. Mutual core is also an incredible song
So happy you finally got to experience Utopia 🥂. This album came out during an extremely difficult time in my life and was God sent 🙏. My favorite track is LOSSS 💜💜💜💜💜. The production and lyrics are a perfect compliment to one another . I will HIGHLY RECOMMEND watching the music videos for this album 🤯🤯, there are 6 if not mistaken.
It's great seeing you , like always ! i wonder if you recorded this recently or some months ago . . . Not sure if this album is very appreciated out there , but it is certainly one of my most special . Björk at some point called it her "(dating) apps album" and that makes a lot of sense since i feel it is "searching" and exploring , and very much in a state of mood where you are trying to reevaluate yourself on commitment towards love . Utopia and Courtship are my flute kicks ! Think it is Björk's most musically lush album and trully is its own utopian escapade 👁 wunderschön , und du auch !
nooo claimstaker is sooo amazing! i think the vocal sampling is brilliant, and beautiful. I adore listening to that song full volume and letting the melodies fill me up. It's so good, I hope it grows on you! Another favorite of mine is courtship, one of her most danceable tracks in her discography, and as a percussionist there isn't a moment where I don't try my best to play along with my fingers. besides that, lovely video! This album is (imo) Bjork's best because its the perfect mold of her classical arrangement abilities with its timeless electronic production. 10/10
omg. F - I - N - A - L - L - Y! really enjoyed your reaction! regarding "field recordings", do not forget Volta and the fog horns! you should also definitely watch the video for "The Gate"... a masterpiece. my favourite track on Utopia: LOSSSSSSSSSSSSSssssssssssssss.....
You should check out “mid air theif” - crumbling, it’s a folk electronic album with some of the best production I’ve ever heard defiantly worth the listen
Wow, it’s been a while, a couple of days ago I questioned myself if you actually got to utopia and I missed it… Some fans really don’t love this, often comparing to Volta, I really loved it, the album art really transmits the sense of bird music, and the sonic identity of it also evokes it a lot, although maybe overlong as a whole. utopia, arising my senses, sue me, and saint are really transportive, again bringing that feel that each Bjork song is a universe… Hopefully you can do a retrospective maybe doing a tier list on her discography… Artists I’ve been listening recently that I’d like to suggest are danger incorporated, and Michael Jackson, hopefully you can check them out someday
Lovely reaction!! You should definitely check out the music videos from this era especially for "the gate" one of the most beautiful thing you’ll see trust me
This one and Biophillia just don't click with me. I don't hate it or anything but I don't put it on often. I love the lyrics the most on this record. Bjork compared her collaboration with Arca on this album to Joni Mitchell and Jaco Pastorius' work on albums like Don Juan's Reckless Daughter....maybe video on that one soon? :P
This is fun ^^ For me this is the worst album of bjork . All the music are trash . Nothing is good . The cover album is disgusting . There is nothing good with utopia . Homogenic is 1 million time better . Just the track hunter is better than all utopia album .
Finally someone who thinks Saint is the best track from Utopia. Congrats on finishing her discography, don’t forget to check her b-sides, live performances and music videos.
and the fact that björk wrote future forever for arca is so cute
Utopia is such a beautifull jurney. I'm glad you like it

Her most underrated album for sure! :) Great reaction video, Lugga!!
Arca actually does have vocals in body memory. Shortly after the songs choir climax- after bjork finishes singing Arca ends it off. 23:06
Lugga! My favorite track is Body Memory. This is easily my second favorite Björk album. Love ya!!
Excited for Ys review now that kick iiii is done
@@collinbeal classic
Saint, future forever and the gate are three of my favorite björk songs ever.

@@got2bjosh cosmogony? mutual core? thunderbolt? Nattura?
Is´nt Fossora as experimental as the albums before?
Finally someone who gets it😊

Saint doesn’t get enough love!
Ive been waiting for this forever!! thanks- i hope the reaction is great, this is my favorite album of hers.

This is maybe the best Bjork album for me and I'm so happy you got it 😍
omg. F - I - N - A - L - L - Y! really enjoyed your reaction!
regarding "field recordings", do not forget Volta and the fog horns!
you should also definitely watch the video for "The Gate"... a masterpiece.

YESS STAN UTOPIA!!
And how about to go to Cornucopia Live? And you can make reviw of her concert :D
This is my fav album tied with Vespertine :)
Lovely reaction!! You should definitely check out the music videos from this era especially for "the gate" one of the most beautiful thing you’ll see trust me
You should listen to Bright Eyes - I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning!
this album is impossible to get for first listen - i'd watch your "3rd listen" reactions of her albums!!
It’s been awhile so I was surprised seeing this! My favorite tracks are Arisen My Senses, Blissing Me, The Gate, Losss, & Future Forever. 🤭
❤
OMG FINALLY
This album is a masterpiece!!! I love her!
Thank god 😭😭
Lugga, you gotta react to boy genius. Their first album came out a couple months ago and I think it’s right up your alley. It’s phoebe Bridger’s band.
Bro ur a legend just saying
My 3rd fav Bjork abulm. BTW, Uptopia is widely recognized as a junior Vespertine🤣
You should do a track review on you got me by the theoretical girls
How about to make review of music videos?
Losss is the other side to Pagan Poetry 🫶
You should listen to drawing restraint 9 soundtrack by her even if you do it off cam its one of my favs from her
This one and Biophillia just don't click with me. I don't hate it or anything but I don't put it on often. I love the lyrics the most on this record.

Hmm. Wir kennen den Text zu diesem Song leider nicht.
Hahaha :D
Uptopia is just lagged behind by Body Memery and Features Creatures, which are too long and exhausting...
lugga.... jpegmafia and death grips next...
Probably my least favorite Björk album but the visuals were cool
This is fun ^^
For me this is the worst album of bjork .
All the music are trash .
Nothing is good .
The cover album is disgusting .
There is nothing good with utopia .
Homogenic is 1 million time better .
Just the track hunter is better than all utopia album .
Me if I was pushing 50 and can’t open my mind
