I absolutely love her. Her energy is always so incredible. The crowd was being rude and loud, but who gives a fuck? Bjork was truly not bothered at all and still dancing to the music that SHE, herself, made. I am incredibly jealous of the passion she has on what she does. She is truly the role model for me
Hey I was front row at this and I'm a New Yorker and I agree everyone was being disrespectful by conversing while this gift from God (björk) was performing. We're not all the same, you know.
Love that she is still on top in all qualities of music and performance. She deserved a better venue than the crap that most of these hipster crowds gave at the ball.
Wonderful setlist, just such a shame that the Vulnicura songs were lost to the crowd. I knew that those songs wouldn't translate well in festival/outdoor/extrovert environment, esp. not one with a mostly teenage crowd! Kind of painful seeing such personal songs being ignored and drowned out by the audience :/.
You know, when i saw her in march i wasn't sure how she was going to pull off this album at a festival and...it just doesn't seem like the right venue for such a quiet and personal record. Biophilia worked really well at the festivals, but that album but the festival is far to impersonal a setting for a work like Vulnicura. I'm so glad i got to see it in Carnegie Hall. Still, it's cool to see Mutual Core return to the sets!
Cika Olva a majority of the set was, and the songs that were just weren't really the kind of music you'd be listening to in a crowd of 100,000 drunk twenty somethings that are there to party. Definitely sit down music.
***** Ya, Volta was perfect for festivals. So many bangers. Biophilia worked when she cut out the Attenborough voice overs which were better suited for the full performances of the album and trimmed down the set to the really vital songs.
montageofheck I agree. I saw her at Carnegie Hall and New York City Center, and those venues (NYCC especially) was PERFECT for a record like Vulnicura. Her older songs are perfect for festivals. Vulnicura songs, not so much. It just doesn't work in such a loud/extrovert setting. It's kind of awkward and painful how the Vulnicura songs are lost and the audience doesn't get it.
Vanessa Clark Ya, Carnegie Hall was where i saw her. Perfect setting for such intimate music.I was honestly surprised she dropped Black Lake and Atom Dance from the set, those are two songs that would have worked really well. I remember the middle of Black Lake was transformed from a quiet contemplative pulse to an absolutely wild, incendiary pounding beat in concert. Atom Dance also had a dope beat. I wish she would have kept those songs and maybe Lionsong and Quicksand and added some more older songs to compliment it. I guess we'll see at her next show a month from now. I can say for sure i don't think the festivals work, but she is doing Les Nuits de Fourviere in France. Maybe an ancient roman arena will be a bit of a better setting than a big hot field in the middle of New York City. I'm still excited to see how the sets keep developing.
SHE STILL ON TOP GRRRR8 PERFORMANCE EVEN WHEN THE PEOPLE R SO SERIOUS JJJJ IS A PARTY A LIVE CONCERT SO MUST TO BE A CRAZY TIME ,JUMPING CLAPING AND SCREAMING NOT WITH YOUR PHONES THAT IS SAD

MOUTH MANTRA GIVE ME LIFE
Really can’t get enough with Mouth Mantra. Hard ass beat and crazy performance. Her outfit is perfect too. TOO FUCKING PERFECT

Not all songs are from Vulnicura.

Hyperballad qué mal sonó...eso quiere decir que nunca más podremos escuchar las canciones antiguas en su tono original en vivo?
