:D

It will probably be removed soon. I don't know what I was expecting, but it's so Bjork and I like it already.

The end is just a big explosion. Genius!

    Thanks for posting that!:)

    I like it a lot, and like you said, very ''Bjork-y''.

    That's good, and better than some of the songs on her last album anyway.

    I'm looking forward to getting her new LP release now!:cool:

    I'm a bit surprised at the end of it. It's like hardcore electro metal mixed with "pretty" plinky sounds.

    It's awesome, though!

    I am compelled to keep listening to this.
    AGAIN!:eek::D

    You're right it's awesome. Best song-ending of the year/decade so far?! I THINK SO!:cool:

    It's great how much "Bjork" is in this song, but it's not a repeat of what she's done in the past. She is great at progressing into different areas.

    I am seeing her in 2 weeks. I can't wait!

    That's the best way to go for any artist - keep pushing forward artistically into new areas for your career but keeping your own identity at the same time.

    I'm jealous right now. I wish I could see her live, but haven't and I don't think I will be for the time being.:(

    I think it's good anyway.:)
    I actually think it's better than most of the work on her last album.

    This sounds sad, but I've been out all night and danced to lots of songs... but this one has been in my head and still is.

    She is amazing. Definitely my favourite solo act... ever.

    By the way, anyone interested in the instrument you're hearing...

    She altered it herself.

    I cannot wait for Manchester International Festival (there's still tickets left for the 27th by the way... the warm up show)

    Really like this! Bjork remains one of the most unique performers in music.

    I hope this and the album really pushes her forward!

    She is indeed a unique performer and I feel very overlooked at times too! her voice is a literal instrument!

    And awesome and unusual instrument she uses for Crystalline by that pic there! LOVE it!

    Pretty much all of the new songs have been "leaked" online. Poor quality, live versions but they sound really promising.

    The album seems more internal, kind of like Verspertine.

    Here is an example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wACS_DoSNcA - It is, I believe, the same melody as the "Solar System Song" which was used for an iPad app about Space (she wrote the music for it).

    Now, listening to that live or on CD is going to be immense, especially as it builds up. It kind of has a flow like "To Lee, With Love" (often known as Trance or Now). It also has a kind of Medúlla with actual music sound, in my opinion.

    It won't please her fans stuck in the 90s still, but I don't think anything after Homogenic has :p


    This is amazing. I am really excited now.

    :) Cheers for the link
    I really like the sound of that one already and I didnt like it at first but Im getting into crystalline now...
    I like all her music but Medulla and Homogenic are my favourite of hers I think.
    just hope there isnt as much brass stuff on this new album as was on volta :sleep:
    but yeah. I do like Bjork very much :cool:

    Thanks for posting the link. I really like what I'm hearing so far, and to be quite honest I think it's better than her last.:cool:

    It was completely unexpected, but that's typical of Bjork.

    We don't know whether this version of Crystalline is going to be the album version because - sometimes - her album versions are different from the single ones (All Is Full Of Love, Alarm Call, for example...)

    Thunderbolt (live): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJf89STPnMc - The electricity thingy (I do know the name, but it's on the tip of my tongue!) makes part of the music! Amazing. "Craving miracles" :D

    She is bordering avant guard again, where I think she is at her best.
