Can't believe I saw this for free

Mind Blowing Bjork is up there with Prince when it comes to musical creativity on any level

[DustSeeker]

and she did that in 1993 ... this is amazing

[lauraaskew]

Björk truly is one of the greatest artists to ever live. She is a genuis. Love her ♥︎

[rayvanwayenburg]

Wow this really makes you appreciate how well constructed the song is and also what a fantastic vocalist Bjork is.

[NeverHomeMusic]

This mans knowledge of music history and attention to detail is incredible

[simeonkim]

Hunter would be beautiful when deconstructed, too

[Missjunebugfreak]

It would be cool if you did a deconstruct of 'Hidden Place'. The way that song builds in its use of production is magical.

[jvo]

please deconstruct running up that hill, the classical kate bush song

[fabianvarela]

i read in an interview of bjork that she received the sample of the song from a friend who brought it from Bollywood.

Actually the "Music for sho and harp (1986)" is composed by Cort Lippe, is dedicated to Noriko Kazama and performed by Mayumi Miyata on sho and Masumi Nagasawa on harp. Also, Lippe was my electronic composition advisor when I was studying in Japan.

[BuckandOden]

I can't imagine how anyone can come up with mixing all of these different instruments and tunes together into a song.

[CarnivalBox]

Would love to see a deconstruction of Sade's sound during the 90's and 00's. Can't seem to find anything on it and it would suit this channel so good.

As a fan of Björk, and an admirer of music production, I enjoyed every minute of this video! Chapeau!

[studioviper]

What an amazing vocal recreation - props to the singer... Goosebumps

[aurelienyonrac]

This makes me appreciate Bjork so much more. What an amazing being

[jaysenb]

this has got to be the best Deconstruction ever on the channel!

[headrockbeats]

Constructing the song from scratch was amazing, and hearing how close the final track was to the original even moreso.

But the most amazing part is realizing how Bjork's "little-extra-something" elevates it further than you could possibly reach even with all that work.

[UberAlphaSirus]

Not detracting from anyone, the vocals are just amazing. I would drown to sirens in a desert. I didn't realise this had so many sounds, very unique sound too.

[JerrodFuller]

One of my favorite Bjork songs. I have heard it about a thousand times. But 19:55 when those solo vocals. Goose bumps. Beautiful. Thank you.
