    Man.. seeing this video always gives me an emotional breakdown. In 1994 I was 14 years old. I remember I was talking on the phone with my friend one evening, and we were both watching MTV. Suddenly this video came on. A minute later I felt like my world had changed. I was suddenly enamored with Bjork. I was mostly a top-40 kinda dude up until that point, but her music unlocked a whole universe of music I had never experienced. Her beauty, innocence, and creative brilliance was so captivating. I feel such sadness that I couldn't somehow meet her back then or even see her in concert. But I'm so thankful for all the memories I have of experiencing her music. It's one of those situations where I can't listen to those songs very often because it's too much raw emotion and nostalgia.

      Yes. They aren't listening to the lyrics. There is something slightly "off" about the melody in comparison to the pitch in her voice. It's like it should be beautiful and in tune together, but it's what she is saying about human behavior itself. It's almost too rough or base. It's hard to explain but I understand what you are saying!

    To human behaviour
    But yet so, yet so irresistible

    And there is no map

    [Verse 2]
    They're terribly, terribly, terribly moody
    Oh, human behaviour
    Then all of a sudden turn happy
    [Gibberish]
    But, oh, to get involved in the exchange
    Of human emotions
    Is ever so, ever so satisfying
    [Gibberish]
    [Refrain]
    And there is no map
    [Gibberish]
    [Chorus]
    Human behaviour, human, human
    Human behaviour, human, human
    Human behaviour
    Human behaviour, human, human
    [Refrain]
    And there is no map
    And a compass wouldn't help at all
    [Gibberish]
    [Chorus]
    Human behaviour, human, human
    Human behaviour, human
    Human behaviour, human, human
    Human behaviour, human, human

      At one point Ricardo repeatedly comment the fact that Bjork was married to Goldie or in his words a black man and that Lopez didn't like the idea of that and was unacceptable and underappreciated. He even go so far as to make a bomb filled with either HIV contaminated blood or sulfuric acid
      Depends on how you look at it
      He explained that if the package is sent to her address then both he and Bjork will be gone to Heaven
      Of course the aftermath we all know how that turned out.

    If you ever get close to a human and human behavior
    Be ready, be ready to get confused and me and my here after
    There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic to human behavior
    But yet so, yet so irresistible and me and my fear can
    And there is no map uncertain
    They're terribly, terribly, terribly moody of human behavior
    Then all of a sudden, turn happy and they and my here after
    But oh, to get involved in the exchange of human emotions
    Is ever so, ever so satisfying and they and my here on
    And there is no map and chair too
    Human behavior, human behavior
    Human behavior, human behavior
    And there is no map
    And a compass wouldn't help at all
    Yeah, uncertain
    Human behavior, human behavior
    Human behavior, human behavior
    Human behavior, human behavior
    Human behavior
    There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic
    To human, to human, to human, to human

      From a different perspective, people who actively try to find “eccentric” music probably try to do so because of how unique it is compared to the droll of mainstream. When you find something “weird” that you really like, it’s difficult to find another that makes you feel those same emotions.

I watched or taped 120 minutes every Sunday night around midnight to find other artists like Bjork. I walked to the “cd store” to buy this Debut album and just played on repeat. I became a super fan and started collecting Sugarcubes albums, import singles, box sets and buying double copies to keep sealed which I still have. I’m not a huge fan of Bjork’s newer works but I respect this woman for every creative thing she has brought to the music industry.

    Awesome. Bjork creates totally original & earthy music, there's an honesty that's not trying to impress or sound like anyone else, she producing her emotion, a Bjork behaviour.

    The first time I heard this song I fell in love with Bjork that instant. I went on to buy all the albums that were made. My CD collection is into the thousands and I still pick out my Bjork CD's before many of the others I own. I love her voice.

    I think the reason why this song has always been one of my favorite björk songs is that it speaks to me. I love studying human behavior and the more I seek to understand it, the more I become confused. Often times I feel like an alien looking at human behaviors from the outside. Thank You Björk!
