Quickie Of the day--Bjork of course

I have a two year old.....enough said.  Hear you go Lovies....another Bjork song to spark your interest.
Undo is the name of the song .  It makes me think of undoing all of the mess humanity has done.  It makes me feel like rebuilding with harmony this time around....and taking time to stop and love our mother earth. The other day as I was driving, I was so in awe of the way the light looked around the fluffy clouds that I ALMOST bumped someone...but I didn't.  Thankfully!  I find myself being effortlessly drawn to nature.....please enjoy!  Listen to the lyrics......Life is not meant to be a struggle.....uphill.

"Undo"

It's not meant to be a strife
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill
Oh I

It's not meant to be a strife
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill
Oh I

You're trying too hard
Surrender
Give yourself in
You're trying too hard
You're trying too hard, ah

It's not meant to be a strife
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill
Sweetly
It's not meant to be as dry
To enjoy
It's not meant to be a stuggle uphill
Oh I

It's warmer now
Lean into it
Unfold
Unfold in a generous way
Surrender

It's not meant to be as dry (surrender)
It's not meant (undo) to be a struggle uphill (undo)
It's not meant to be as dry
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill

I'm praying
To be
In a generous mode
The kindness kind
The kindness kind
To share
Me
To share me

It's not meant to be as dry
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill

It's not meant to be as dry
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill

Undo
Undo
If you're bleeding
Undo
And if you're sweating
Undo
If you're crying, darling
Undo

Undo
Oh I
Unravel

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.
