    For your info, Bjork is a beautiful Icelandic woman with lots of talent. She started at the age 11 makes all of her songs and music from the heart and takes every instrument that plays in her songs very seriously. she is very delicate and dedicated with everything she puts Into her music. She loves to finish a liter of vodka every friday and If I'm not mistaken.She also has her own brand and she's also sold over 20 million albums and has 16 Grammy nominations and in 2023, Rolling Stone named her the 64th-greatest singer and 81st-greatest songwriter of all time. And she's got a bad ass castle!!!!!! ❤❤❤ MUCH LOVE TO YOU BJORK❤❤❤
