The fact that this song was done with all human voices is spectacular!

[hm]

it’s actually amazing how far ahead Björk is with every direction she takes in her music

[matthewstevens]

This was my mom's favorite Björk song. <3 RIP

[Hi-lbcq]

can't believe bjork is still going strong since the 90s...love her music

[mjrmalfunction]

This is my first björk song and holy crap I am both terrified and soothed.

Aún recuerdo cuando salió este vídeo en un canal cultural de acá de México, ponían vídeos de estreno. Yo estaba embarazada de mi primer hijo, cuando escuché la canción le subí el volumen, soy fan desde el 94' y mi panza se movió repentinamente y parecía que mi bebé reaccionaba a la voz y los suaves sonidos y armonias de mi etérea Björk, hoy mi hijo tiene 16 años y es tan fan como yo.

I fondly remember myself eagerly waiting for her to sing this at the 2004 Olympic Games opening ceremony in Athens, Greece

The way she romanticizes things are just beautiful. And I love her aesthetics. That crystal face make up and dress are as stunning as her music is.

This song is what first got me into bjork. I was in middle school when she sang this song at the opening ceremony of the Olympics, this album was my first real exposure to contemporary avant garde and forever changed my experience of music. THANK YOU BJORK you are forever my QUEEN 👑

One breath away
From Mother Oceania
Your nimble feet make prints
In my sand

You have done
Good for yourselves
Since you left my wet embrace
And crawled ashore

Every boy is a snake is a lily
Every pearl is a lynx is a girl

Sweet like harmony
Made into flesh
You dance by my side
Children sublime

You show me continents
I see the islands
You count the centuries
I blink my eyes

Hawks and sparrows
Race in my waters
Stingrays are floating
Across the sky

Little ones
My sons and my daughters
Your sweat is salty, I am why
I am why
I am why
Your sweat is salty, I am why
I am why
I am why

[Hiiiiiiiiieeee]

I have never been a fan of Bjork, I’ve known of her existence but never really experienced her art. This is incredible. The thumbnail was striking, so much so that i had to click on it. This woman is a talented, eccentric, alien queen.

[TheScienceguy]

This is by far one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard; which I can say about a lot of Björk songs. She is absolutely gorgeous inside and out.

[natemarx]

Björk does humanity a great service with every upload she makes.

[morighanbecks]

Bjork is in another musical mind. you either like what she does or you get turned off by her style. she's truly one of a kind.

[Missjunebugfreak]

This has always been one of my top 10 favourite Bjork songs. The intricate arrangement is even more arresting in HD.

[loeuvrededieu]

This song always made feel like I was home. Medúlla in general is a very special album, it's comforting and warm, with a tinge of melancholy.

"Hawks and sparrows race in my waters,
stingrays are floating across the sky".

Too good to figure this image.

To me it´s breathtaking how the limitation of words is overcomed by the expressions through the pictures, voices, colours, shapes of things, lights and shadows. Only something, coming from heart, from soul, from spirit, from deepest and free connection with nature on the earth and in the whole universe and with her breathing in and breathing out, can be as such deep, impressive and expressive - this is the voice of nature. Thank you to speak through this holy alliance of the three - heart - soul - spirit - sourounded and leavened by nature´s mights, energies and beings everywhere and everytime - it´s a honour to live in the times, I am able to receive all this through the artworks from Björk. Thank you and please continue being nature. *The might of smiling always is in us, around us and with us.*
