BJORK, BJORK and more BJORK



Having grown up in the 90's, I was aware of Bjork's music/art/personality.  There were a few songs I liked,  hunter, human behavior, army of me....pretty much the stuff they played on the radio.  Why is it that some of the most awesome songs on albums are NOT played on the radio?  Always wanted to know that...  So jump forward from the 90's to 2010.  I rediscover BJORK in a major way!!!  Be prepared to hear A LOT about her in this blog's future...one song at a time. That's how much her music has impacted me!!!!
First, a little about what I LOVE about Bjork!!!  She is TRUE to herself, no matter how strange she may seem to others. All music is art....but after a while of being in the business a lot of musicians lose their artistic touch.  Bjork seems to just get more and more artistic as she ages.  She experiments with different organic sounds, like ice crunching under your feet.  Maybe I just love her because it is obvious that she has a deep love of nature...as do I! I love that she likes to play with and manipulate her voice.  Her outfits, costumes, hair, and face paint ...along with her music force you to think outside the box.  Plus the messages expressed in her songs are wonderfully awesome.  So give her a listen, you won't regret it!!

Beautiful song number 1.....ALL IS FULL OF LOVE.
