There’s just no artist who can build such an ethereal yet sad and dark atmosphere like Björk does. The immensity she builds in the song feels like she’s surrendering herself to something that is bigger than herself and completely hurtful yet out of her control
Sorrowful Soil to me is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard in my life

[MartoZCreate]

The somber atmosphere created by the beautiful singing, solemn lyrics, and the gentle life-force of the earth spilling around you is beautiful. It's incredible how in tune you are with using the world around you as mirrors for these emotions. In Black Lake we saw the cavernous gorges of a place that reflected the loss of a woman's love, and now that became filled with the very magma that now gets to be a eulogy for your mother, hot with quiet celebration of a lifetime of vitality.
May your mother rest in peace, Bjork. This song will now be sung in memory of her by millions on top of the 9 it was shown to us with, the loudest "goodbye".

If you find Björk on your notifications to start your morning, then you know you will have a great day.

God I think this is the most moving thing she's ever written and sung actually. Modern and simultaneously ancient, primal and respectful. I would love to hear it in Icelandic as well. The music presents a portal to an entry of the wairua (spirit) of her land.

[DadeErbolo]

It's my favourite track of the album. It connects with grief in such a respectful way.

[arkasonus]

More I listen to this album, more I love it.
It's not sugar pop immediately digested and gone.
Björk is 100% art. It needs time to be appreciated.
Love from Paris 🇨🇵

[EverybodyLovesMaria]

All mothers' supportive song. Thank you Björk, I'm crying ... 🍄💔

[mariomolina]

2:11 it’s the most beautiful part in the song! I love this song so much! 🥺🥺🥺

[APopptart]

I remember seeing how excited Björk was when the island was erupting so it's very fitting to capture that moment into her music video library. As always, it's very much appreciated.🌋

[ExMeroMotu]

Sounds like a farewell song. You can always expect for Bjork to hit you in the feels. Thank you Bjork!

I have been heartbroken lately; could hardly eat, lost weight. It's been up and down and I've been looking for a song that gives me hope and embodies my inner state. Loving pain. Undo. I watched interviews of you today, next to all the songs of the past time that is present after all. And to see that you released a video feels like a gift and yes I know I relate it to me and yet, thank you. I feel your loss and pain. And the love. I am waiting for the psylocibine to kick in that I recently took because I need clarity. Undo. I hope you are doing well. Sending you love and shroomy greetings❤

[PrimitiveInTheExtreme]

I have been listening to 'Fossora' countless times since it came out, it is always a unique experience. Great song, great video. 🎶🌋🎶

[iactaaleaesto]

It's always a joy for tears and soul when Björk sings something from the very bottom of her heart.

[lucasfreire]

You did well Björk. Thank you for make my day better!!

[sansyy]

I hope Björk knows how grateful we are for everything she does ❤

[miriambohm]

Medulla vibes 🥺🥺😭😭😭😭 can't handle so much sonore beauty to my ears

[kabernat]

This song sounds like beautiful hymns and spirituals. Bjork, your on another level and I can hear that you have reached another dimension with this one. I understand the concept of the video and the images, but this one was very special! Long Live Bjork!!❤️❤️🎹🎹🎸🎼🎼🌹🌹🌹

[anonye]

The fact that this is dedicated to her mother….
