She’s the best. I could never understand how someone could develop that style, then I learned that in Iceland she used to walk to school in blizzards singing as hard as she could into the storm. He talks about how she sounds like a wild animal trying to come out and it’s close to that - a girl trying to hear herself over torrential freezing winds. Then of course a punk in her teens. I’ve always loved it, but I get it now and love it even more.

Interesting you say “pre recorded strings” I worked on this show and it was 100% live strings. What you fail to understand is that Mark Bell is adding additional strings and playing loops live. And of course there’s “no mics” the instruments have custom made pick ups which we used on the tour. The string players have an LED metronome that links directly to MainStage that comes from Mark Bell. You should find this song played in one of her actual concerts. It’s a lot more energetic than the live TV performance.

It isn't "like a wild animal trapped". She is a perfectionist and an innovator. A Renaissance Woman. She definitely knows what she is doing, you can not execute the sort of vocal acrobatics, such marvel of a voice, that is demonstrated here -- with out any knowing or control of your entire system inside and out. There is a lot of intention behind every sound she makes believe you me. If you follow Björk in her journey, there was an interview where she describes how she learned to sing this way, within the deep and forlorn, powerful expanse of her Iceland home, belting out to volcanic activity, and tectonic crunching noises. Having that as her backyard, vocal playground resulted in this distinct singing style that is all her own. Great of you to share this piece, it's the song of my Life. It's B erk like lurk not B ork like York. If intonation and inflection and lip positioning matters.

Highly recommend some of bjork’s tracks that really leverage her unique way of singing. My callouts below: 1. So Broken - especially her live performance, there is SO MUCH to digest in what she does with her voice that only she can do. 2. Five Years - She really growls and puts a lot of anger into her voice as the track progresses and builds up. 3. Cocoon - Whispers and sighs and coos. Haven’t heard many songs like this in my life and it makes my skin tingle. 4. I Miss You - a lot of various techniques and she stretches and contorts her voice in such interesting ways through this track. Voice breaks, growls, cracks, her unique belts that only she can do. 5. The Pleasure Is All Mine - really stretches her syllables in her typical bjorkian fashion and puts her vocals front and center. The whole Medulla album is focused on the human voice with 99% of instrumentation comprised of human voices in various forms (inuit throat singing, beat boxing, choirs, etc.) and is a fascinating listen for anyone interested in the human voice and its many unique uses.

I grew up with Björk, having been a teenager when Debut came out and I always felt like there were certain "Björk-Moments" in my life though I couldn't listen to her all of the time. Now I've found myself in a "listening-to-Björk-all-of-the-time" phase and I've just realized that her unique way of singing and performing creates something like an entity that I feel at home with because I've known it for such a long time and it offers stability - as well as variation beacause of the creative abundance of her work. It's very comforting and inspiring. Your video helped me make the connection.

My brother got me into Bjork when I was around 12. It was a connection for us because we didn't have a whole lot in common other than music. This is one of my favorite songs from her. I also LOVE "Come to Me". I think people either love her or hate her lol I know people that find her singing super annoying but I think she is absolutely amazing. Especially those super early recordings when she was, like, 9! Love her.

I actually think her performance of 'Joga' on this same programme was better than the studio recording

If you're looking for much crispyness and raw emotion in her voice, i suggest you to watch her live rendition of "So Broken" : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sKiDlb1hm9vckWw.html

I’d recommend watching the video to this particular song to get the full effect, it’s a story about fame essentially taking over your life, most of her videos are unique, but this is a particular favorite of mine.

Jools Holland Live is all live performances. If you zoom in you can clearly see leads coming from each of the string players who will be using piezo pickups.

This probably my favourite song of hers, although my favourite album is Vespertine. That album redefined how I understood what music was. It took me so many listens to "get it", but I couldn't stop listening to it.

From my listing experience with Björk; she tend to botch words (even in the recordings) in favor of an emotional interpretation.

Absolute individual, I love her and have always found her to be of pure inspiration to just be yourself and feel comfortable in your own skin.
