      quit being so politically correct and own it brother. Bjork wouldnt stand for this "In my opinion Nonsense" :] Find strength in her identity. This song is definitely amazing though.

      i feel it's about being in love. allowing yourself to be vulnerable and embracing those feelings despite the risk of being hurt. falling so deeply in love can be scary. what if it doesn't work out and you end up heartbroken? but if you adore something enough, the risk is worth it.

    • @crying2emoji5
      @crying2emoji5 Год назад +25

      I agree and I personally think that’s why a lot of people don’t “vibe” with her music. She has a way of expressing emotions that is difficult to describe, but it’s sort of deep and raw. Almost like she’s projecting the emotions into your mind.

      beatniece My appreciation for your reply and apologize for making my comment seem so narrow minded. Allow me to elucidate. I don't believe there will ever be another Nordic female artist with that kind of artistic genius quality on such a global level. The way her voice sounds, that special look/style of hers and the structure/interpretation of her songs is as unique as Bowie's ever was. Just like there can never be another Bowie, there can never be another Bjork. It's that simple... they created their own style, sound and language.

    I was listening to this song when my grandpa past away. It still to this day holds a special powerful place in my heart. As his last breath left his body this song played in my ears. He was the greatest man I ever knew. After more than 10 years this song still makes me cry. He will always be remembered by me and my blood line. RIP Luis F. Salas.

    Pedalling through
    The dark currents
    I find
    An accurate copy
    A blueprint
    Of the pleasure, in me
    Swirling black lilies totally ripe
    A secret code carved
    Swirling black lilies totally ripe
    A secret code carved
    He offers, A handshake
    Crooked, five fingers
    They form a pattern
    Yet to be matched
    On the surface simplicity
    But the darkest pit in me
    It's pagan poetry
    Pagan poetry
    Morsecoding signals
    They pulsate and wake me up
    From my hibernate
    On the surface simplicity
    But the darkest pit in me
    It's pagan poetry
    Pagan poetry
    Swirling black lilies totally ripe
    This time
    I'm gonna keep me to myself
    This time
    I'm gonna keep me all to myself
    And it makes me want to hand myself over
    And it makes me want to hand myself over...

      I saw her in Chicago with my dad in 2001. I remember because it was only a month after 9/11. October 14th, 2001 I think the exact date was. Did she come back the next year too? Or were you also at the Civic Opera House performance in 2001? I was 19 and I thought I had died and gone to heaven.
