I remember growing up in the 90s, she was brave enough to be herself, be creative and evolve her music. Because she was being different the media/chart/music shows would completely ridicule her a LOT. When you listen to a bjork song, you honestly couldn’t tell if it was released in the 90s or right now….that’s how far ahead she was with her music. She put her critics to shame.

I was 17 in 1997, and just got a scholarship from my country Kuwait to study in Japan, left to Japan and there I entered tower records in Shibuya and listened to this song and bought the CD immediately, till this day I listen to it like its 1997.

Can you believe it? After 22 years we can watch Bachelorette at 1080p resolution.
The video won the MTV Video Music Award for Best Art Direction 😍👍

[ratatouisvuitton]

This music video should've won an Oscar for best director, best original screenplay, best actress, best original soundtrack, best cinematography, literally EVERY category even though it's a mv bc it's a goddamn MASTERPIECE. 🙌🙌

[xxpsilocybinxx]

one of the best pieces of music ever. the whole homogenic album still sounds futuristic and cutting-edge today

The accordion at the end always gets me, I always come back to bachelorette.

"I'm a fountain of blood in the shape of a girl". This song is to real. She really is a genius of the disenchantment of the modern age.

[cheeseboy]

I wish she would narrate audiobooks, I could listen to her all day

[Abigail_Olson]

Recently discovered her. I can’t say I’m accustomed to her style or completely understand it, but there’s something about her music that sparks curiosity and raw beauty. I love this video.

[Davfra]

I'm a fountain of blood
In the shape of a girl
You're the bird on the brim
Hypnotised by the whirl
Drink me, make me feel real
Wet your beak in the stream
Game we're playing is life
Love's a two way dream

Leave me now, return tonight
Tide will show you the way
If you forget my name
You will go astray
Like a killer whale
Trapped in a bay

I'm a path of cinders
Burning under your feet
You're the one who walks me
I'm your one way street
I'm a whisper in the water
Secret for you to hear
You're the one who grows distant
When I beckon you near

Leave me now, return tonight
Tide will show you the way
If you forget my name
You will go astray
Like a killer whale
Trapped in a bay

I'm a tree that grows hearts
One for each that you take
You're the intruder's hand
I'm the branch that you break

[plumedescaraibes]

I literally cried for hours after listening this beautiful masterpiece...I'm fighting with mental illness and this song speaks to my soul. It breaks my heart but I need it because it makes me feel alive. Thank you Bjork for being so unique and gifted. Your art is a dark and enlightening wander for lonely souls like me. You are truly loved ❤️

one day, i found a big book buried deep in the ground, i opened it, but all the pages were blank and to my surprise, it started writing itself one day, i found a big book buried deep in the ground .

No one can make music the way Bjork does. What a song!

[klinkske]

I ve seen her a few times live. But the show at pukkelpop was so good i will never forget it. My brother was standing next to me and he said :’how lucky are we to be here’ - he was right. And indeed, some crowd walked out while the show was on. But it s just people that don t understand it. It was one of the best things i ever saw, next to Prince.

[andrewwilliams]

So melancholy. Her voice plays my heart like a musical instrument.

[whisperingglades]

this is easily one of the best songs of all time!!! the way she is able to combine classic orchestra with electronic music is just amazing 😭 the lyrics are complex without being forced, her voice is just IMPECCABLE, it tells a story even without the music video!!!

[natemarx]

An upload from Björk will force you to have a smile for the rest of the day.

[futurewhale]

Bjork= best vocalist of last 25 years hands down. Ever notice no one can sing bjork song without it sounding like a cover song whereas bjork can sing anything and make it her own. Facts

[presentprogressive]

The video is actually extremely dark on an apocalyptic level. When the publisher falls out of love, all books are unwritten and all people and buildings get devoured by the bushes and the trees. The city turns into a forest with the empty book buried deep inside the ground, until she finds it again while digging and everything repeats itself in an infinite loop.

I remember the strangeness of watching this video after midnight or maybe 2 o'clock in the morning in MTV Brazil around 1998. It was so different from everything that I have seen. For me Bachelorette video illustrates very well Walter Benjamins's concept of the narrator and experience in crisis.
