What everyone thinks is "flirting," is actually him telling her that she could make "popcorn soup with all that popcorn." This is the most awkward thing in Icelandic history.
Notice that Bjork plays with the popcorn tube while she speaks and stops when he speaks to her. Textures seem to aid her creative communication. She seems so fascinated with how it feels, sounds and looks. I get the same impression when I listen to her music.
I'm icelandic and it is a reaaaaally hard language! The grammar is like five times more than all the other languages! I love this song! Absolutly the best from Sykurmolonum(the Sugarcubes). And I just looooove her looks when she is younger. Here she is about 21 I think. She is sooo beautiful!
Bjork I think is the most beautiful and creative women I have seen since Stevie Nicks. Bjork's eyes & smile are extremely captivating even on a digital effects video like this she looks amazing.
@@redacted-oo7ne Does she even know it is a bad word? Im my language, Portuguese, "negro" is a neutral word. I thought it was the case about the n word in English.
Everyman in the world fancies a dollbaby sexy face like hers..her gentility, intelligence, mystery, discretion, her reciprication when love is felt for her by the fans....her bad ass bossness..her natural imagination to wound you, break you or take you into a gorgeous place with fantastical notes and instruments...its voodoo... one of few best singers in the world...no one sings like bjork.
you are totally right! I don't know why people don't like how German sounds and like how French does, both languages have almost the same sounds, by example Franch and German R is the same, or German ö and French eu.
Icelandic is way harder than the other Germanic languages because it has a case system and is highly inflected. Just like English and the Scandinavian languages were 1000 years ago. It's a cool language just because it's like a living linguistic time capsule.
I would like to visit this country someday and understand how they can organise such a sophisticated society in such a small scale population. The current economic crisis makes me still more curious about what is going on in Iceland.
Wow! Me encanta esta mujer, dios! Se nota que le gusta mucho el muchacho que la entrevista, hay unas tomas del rostro donde dice todo... Es tan hermosa...
He asked; "Well, uhmm, what´s it like being in all of this, isn´t it fun, or..?" And she says; ,,Sure, yeah...but it can also be demanding from time to time" To which he replies; "Ummmhmm...tough...yeah..mhmmm." And then he goes and and says that now we can watch the video ("Ammæli") that got the award for second-best music video of 1986, she says she´ll watch it with him, and he laughs.
as my professor put it, and not to sound offensive: Iceland is a volcanic rock with 300,000 people in the mid Atlantic. There's only so much exposure you can get singing in Icelandic.
For instance, when you write a book in Icelandic, how many books can be sold? and how many books must be sold to pay the costs of printing?; when you speak to the radio, how many people can be listening to you?; when you record a CD, how many people can get interested in it? Off course my curiosity is based in economic grounds, since all of this things have a cost and somebody has to finance it. Do the TVs have enough advertising to finance their broadcasting? (probably they are state owned).
I'm Swedish and it wouldn't make any difference to me if she spoke Chinese. I couldn't understand any of it. But it's clear that it has a distinct Nordic sound to it.
I live in a city with 10 million inhabitants, in a country with a 190 million inhabitants. Maybe for this reason I always get so curious about how things get organised in Icelandic society, considering that the whole country's population is only about 320 thousand inhabitants and they are geographically isolated from other continental lands. I know Iceland is a modern well educated society living with European standards (besides the current economical crisis) and that makes me still more curious
It sounds a lot more Scandinavian then any of the West Germanic languages (such as German, Dutch, Frisian and English) - I hear huge differences between this and German....
Haha, that interview is so awkward and the guy has no idea what he´s supposed to be doing. Also funny how she has to introduce herself and the guy who made the video, who is now the most famous director in iceland.
Hablo español porque soy Argentino =) Tenes razón en que ella es penosa ( timida, vergonzosa ) pero acá 1:12 y acá 1:31 yo leo otra cosa en su expresion ( en el último más todavía ), no? Y me encanta!! Shonaripa, yo me pregunto por que hablas español!? :P Greetz
The sounds may be the same but the way it rolls off the tongue (or in the back of the throat) is what makes both french and german different to the ear, not to mention that french is romantic and german is germanic, generally people find the romantic languages more "pretty" than germanic languages.
Porque hablas español?:P Ella es bastante penosa, no esque le gusta el muchacho, solo actúa raro en ciertas situaciones cuando le da pena o algo. Pero hermosa si es^^
Very few people outside of Japan speak Japanese because it's not a useful language outside of Japan. English, French, Spanish etc. are widely taught because there are many countries that speak those languages. It has nothing to do with how difficult or easy the language is. Also, I never found Japanese hard to pronounce and one you get the hang of the grammar it's not too difficult to learn. Chinese on the other hand was much more difficult because of the tones. To each their own though. What one person finds difficult another person may find easy. I think Icelandic sounds nicer than Japanese...but that's just my opinion. :)

Flirting is usually with body language, facial expressions and vocal tones. Not necessarily dialogue.
Tony Idk if you know Icelandic, but that is definitely not flirting
@@sindripindri1246 lol. Idk if you know about flirting, but yes, that was flirting.
Tony my best friend, also Icelandic, disagrees with you
@@sindripindri1246 that's his opinion 😄👌 maybe y'all don't know much about women. Lol
Notice that Bjork plays with the popcorn tube while she speaks and stops when he speaks to her. Textures seem to aid her creative communication. She seems so fascinated with how it feels, sounds and looks. I get the same impression when I listen to her music.
I think she was mostly interested in him.
I'm icelandic and it is a reaaaaally hard language! The grammar is like five times more than all the other languages!
I love this song! Absolutly the best from Sykurmolonum(the Sugarcubes).
And I just looooove her looks when she is younger. Here she is about 21 I think. She is sooo beautiful!
Björk is so so beautiful,i love her!
Astonishing.... she has the voice of angels
Yes,I love languages too!! I like Russian, German, Romanian, Greek, Icelandic, Japanese and Nahuatl, and my mother language is Spanish.
You can speak nahuatl??!! Omg really i am salvadoran are you from El Salvador
Tha fack? Lol, I understood nothing, and they were holding a large bag of popcorn, very interesting.
Bjork I think is the most beautiful and creative women I have seen since Stevie Nicks. Bjork's eyes & smile are extremely captivating even on a digital effects video like this she looks amazing.
Love Bjork, she's so cute and sweet.
until we remember she used to say the n word with the hard r
@@redacted-oo7ne Does she even know it is a bad word? Im my language, Portuguese, "negro" is a neutral word. I thought it was the case about the n word in English.
such a rare voice
I love Björk. everything she does comes from within. Beautiful. Cute.
Bjork was so weird, that she looked normal in 1986.
Her face is soooo cute :)
The look @ approx 1:30, i think she has a crush on the interviewer.
I love this song. Björk is so strange and so beautiful(good combo).
damn, i think i like the icelandic version better. fantastic.
Icelandic the best language in the world💜

I hope she'll start singing in Icelandic again.
I love this song!
you are totally right!

They're both attractive and apparently flirting.
Actually so far away from flirting haha

I'm Swedish and it wouldn't make any difference to me if she spoke Chinese. I couldn't understand any of it. But it's clear that it has a distinct Nordic sound to it.
I love how rebellious she looked back then

Why's he standing in a pseudo ballet pose?
he actually used to be a ballet dancer before he started his tv career
@@narkotikniklas6368 Then, who is He?
Thanks idja69 .
It's impossible to state for a fact that a language is difficult if it's the first time you hear it.
wtf popcorn as an award? :/
It sounds like Dutch
True, but this is the original Nordic language, with a few spelling/pronunciation differences
wow, she was kinda cute when she was young
Haha, that interview is so awkward and the guy has no idea what he´s supposed to be doing. Also funny how she has to introduce herself and the guy who made the video, who is now the most famous director in iceland.
So, what is the song about? I guess there's a english version. Anyway, very interesting to see her at such a young age. 1

And a shmeckle is a coin
subtle sexual symbolism in there;))
Bjork or Bobcat?
