    Her voice, her melodies somehow simultaneously evoke ecstatic joy and deep melancholy. I don’t know how she does it.

      General Dissatisfaction
      It's just an interpretation of it. The Sugarcubes themselves said it's about a loveless affair. Still, I agree child abuse is a viable reading of this. In any case, the most beautiful works of art about the tragic, the ugly and the painful.

      I took the bus home from school today, the only one on it. Lonely, ugly, isolated, depressed, anxious, all these things I behold externally and internally. I played this song on repeat, and cried all the way home. Thankfully, it healed me, I was able to wallow in the sadness with a song that I feel understands the angst I live in, the pain, the struggle. I'll never forget what this song did for me, I'll forever appreciate Bjork and The Sugarcubes, what they have done for me as an individual. I will always be thankful.
      Thank you so much, The Sugarcubes, for this song, for your music, for everything you did that helps me feel human, like everything is okay, that everything is going to get better.

    I've been a fan since this track came out and saw her live for several solo tours, I've followed her career and have played various remixes in my DJ sets-- and she is totally weird. She doesn't shy from it, she embraces it, sings about it. She knows that she sees the world in an odd way, that every moment for her is an ecstatic release that most people have shut themselves off from. Normal is boring.

    This song brings me to another dimension, like a lost era... a moment in time you wish could go back to... The white honda civic makes the moment so real like the dimension still exist... goosebumps all over

    People might judge the sugarcubes negatively compared to her solo stuff, but it was a great band in it's own right! Classic tune

    Why do old music videos give me a feeling that i was there at the time when those were made. I mean there is something in the back of my head telling me all of the sceneries, people etc that i was a part of it .

    Just doesn't get old. Her total commitment to the song is what drives this classic track. Hearing this for the first time all those years ago I knew a rare talent had arrived. Through all the years since she has never dissapointed those early expectations.

    I fully agree. Being unique has nothing to do with being weird. However, anything that is unique will always be percieved as "Weird" by people who worship the mainstream.
    When it comes to understanding Bjork, she gives a reason for almost everything she does, so I find her easy to understand as a person. Her music isn't abnormal to people (like me) who admire the creativeness of an artist, yet to someone that listens to only one genre of music, anything else will be weird to them.

    I took the bus home from school today, the only one on it. Lonely, ugly, isolated, depressed, anxious, all these things I behold externally and internally. I played this song on repeat, and cried all the way home. Thankfully, it healed me, I was able to wallow in the sadness with a song that I feel understands the angst I live in, the pain, the struggle. I'll never forget what this song did for me, I'll forever appreciate Bjork and The Sugarcubes, what they have done for me as an individual. I will always be thankful.
    Thank you so much, The Sugarcubes, for this song, for your music, for everything you did that helps me feel human, like everything is okay, that everything is going to get better.
