I like this song. Strong vocal, fabulous accordion at the end. It's really art. And did you seen music video? Very extraordinary clip
would rather push broken glass into my ears than listen to her excruciating wailing. make it stop!!

I listened to this album this morning...nothing like a little Bjork to get the day going!
Please no more Djork!
I love Bjork, and recently got hold of a Sugarcubes album. Nice industrial sound to it. Reminded me of Amon Duul. The Icelandic Pixie ROCKS!

don't know what she's singing about, but i love this song. each time i've heard it i have said that. sounds sad, melancholy...pining, kind of. i'll have to look up the lyrics to see.

The magic that is Bjork. 10.
I find Bjork an irritating person - at least the public persona. And normally I don't like a lot of her music, but this is good, and I really like the cover of the album.
eh, just cause it's weird doesn't mean it's good. (disclaimer: I do like some bjork tracks)

I like Bjoerk--a lot. So having established my bona fides, I have to argue with the obvious falacy of your statement: There was a time when we referred to it as album cover art , for the very good reason that many musicians/studios had their people put a lot of creative effort into it, and there is some brilliant cover art out there. Clearly this is such an attempt--I mean, really, this isn't just a snapshot of the artist and doesn't bear any resemblance to other pictures I've seen of her. And it really is hideous.
Okay by me; wouldn't buy a CD, though.

Yep! Tinnitis drives me crazy too...although it's not really a drive, more like a short walk.
Love Bjork!
Other than for a couple of tunes on Debut, I don't get Bjork ....
It's not a "dive for the mute button" thing like Radiohead --- in this case I genuinely feel like I'm missing something.

I'm sorry, but I've never been able to grok Björk.

You got that right. I've been listening to this ol' girl for a long time now. She's had one song that was passable-good ("Human Behavior"). The rest sound like a couple of skunks mating in a dumpster.
But I don't "get" Yoko (John loved her, that's good enough for me) or some of the other avant-gard artists played on here either. So it goes.

i guess I will forever not "get" Bjork... she was a good actor in that one movie though. She should act more.
Has Bjork ever done a song for a James Bond movie? Could totally hear that.
It's always a pleasure when the distinctive sound and genius of Björk comes on.
The whole thing is crazy. the alblum cover, the song, the whole shabang. Not really bad at all, but when really would you listen to this?

Not my favorite Bjork album (see Vespertine), but this is one of her best songs. (And it probably appeals to a wider audience)
She performed this song on Saturday Night Live. Watching her sing is great. Here it is on YouTube: https://youtube.com/watch?v=eFL6el3xQEs

I think she's not doing reality TV because they want people who will go along with loose scripts. She'd probably walk off after day 2, like any sensible person would do.
She has an amazing voice
