I encourage you to listen to Bjork. She's the perfect blend of electronic, vocal, and orchestra music. Her voice is soothingly haunting and her lyrics are, to say the least, complex. Bjork is a style icon as well. She tends to dress ethnicly from Chinese dresses and Indian jewels to authentic vintage styles as well as sporting modern designs. I think she is very beautiful, an exquisite mix between Lucy Lui and my wife.
Ok, I had no idea that Bjork sang, "Jet Plane"! LOVE IT! Great voice! I actually had an x-boyfriend sing that to me when I left for college. Yeah, I'm not right! :)
WHERE IS YOUR BLOG ROLL? I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET TO EVERYONE'S SIGHT ANYMORE! LOVE DANI
Sorry I can't let it slide, John Denver wrote and sang "Leaving on a Jet Plane." Bjork did a remake of it.
you know what ... i actually was watching the opening ceremony of the olympics and she performed this song.. Oceanic i believe.... it is on my playlist ... something very different from what i listen too but deff good.

I'm sorry, but ew. I cannot stand Bjork. No offense to all Bjork lovers out there but she is totally crazy. I don't like her music. Sorry.
You're obviously closed minded, and I feel very very sorry for you. Not letting yourself experience one of the greatest human voices, and actually saying "ew"??? What are you, 12?
Well put my friend.
The song she sang at the the 2004 summer olympics is still haunting me I must have it! Does anyone know where I can get it. I would buy the album but it seems to be a different version tha I dont care for.
If you like Bjork, you should also give Regina Spektor a spin. I had downloaded some stuff from her it is amazing BUT, MTV just labeled her the next Bjork so, there goes her career!
Here is the live version of Oceania she performed at the 2004 Summer Olympics.

bjork owns you, k thnx.
I have a question........where do they sell her CD's? I can't find them anywhere....I Love her Songs "Oceania" and "Hidden Place"....They are remarkable pieces of art transformed into beautiful music
Wow. Welcome to 1988. Good to have you here.
If you want GOOD Bjork...buy some old Sugarcubes albums. May i suggest "Life's Too Good"?
I'm not saying she's new, I'm just saying she's good, BTW I have all her albums. I just love it when people think they are special because they heard a band first. By claiming that you only like her first albums shows that you have no idea what your talking about. We are mere mortals in your presence oh mighty Ranger...
HELLO?
Bjork **SHE is very very beautiful.
Please I whant here address.
Thinks.

yah
Regina Spektor and Bjork are both excellent! I recommend both to anyone. =D No seriously, Regina Spektor is REALLY REALLY good.
Sorry to Burst everyone's BUBBLE, but neither Bjork nor Jewel have sung "Leaving on a Jet Plane" It was sung by Chantal Kreviazuk available on the soundtrack from the movie Armageddon.
Further more Matt, I can't let it slide... While I do like Bjork and you are correct, John Denver did write "Leaving on a Jet Plane" in 1967, it was never recorded by Bjork.
This has become an urban legend due to a Napster misnomer several years ago, which has since spread through the file sharing world. The Chad Mitchell Trio recorded it in 1967, as did Spanky & Our Gang and Peter, Paul and Mary.
NOT Jewel, NOT Bjork, NOT PJ Harvey
Cheers
