I think the execution has been fine. There's more depth to what she does now. Notice it or not, there's still a heavy emphasis on the soundscapes she creates and the lyrics and the melodies -- now more than ever, this **is** her most melodic album, in my opinion, lots more focus on melodics. Let's not forget she still wrote the lyrics all by herself and wrote the majority of the songs by herself (she wrote/composed 8/14 of the tracks for Utopia solo, and the rest were written with Arca). She is, for all intents and purposes, just as much of a musician, singer-songwriter, whatever you want to call her as she "used to be". To quote something she's said before, everything she does is for the music ("if I can do it through singing, cool/ whatever it takes to make a good song"). People forget that she's never thought of herself as a singer first and foremost and I think that's probably why she even bothers to include the majorly instrumental songs on a good number of her albums (the ambiance of "Headphones" and "All Is Full of Love (Album Version)", "Frosti", the old B-sides, doing not one but two soundtrack albums, one not even written necessarily with Bjork in mind and the other not really focused on her own vocal performance, the interlude bits on Volta, "Dark Matter" on Biophilia, the long outro to "Family" on Vulnicura and all of those parts that extend out just to focus on the instruments devoid of vocals, "Paradisia" and all of those similar moments on Utopia). She's no less a singer-songwriter literally or metaphorically than she ever was. I imagine the aesthetic parts of what she's doing is just to bring her work that much further. It's no longer just an album and an audible experience, it's a mind-challenging, thought-provoking, sensually-stimulating... thing! Like she was trying to do with Biophilia via the app and the musicology/scientific aspects of that whole era. Also, the lyric you said was wrong. It's "he reminds me of the love in me".
blissing me is definitely one of her best songs , everything about it is perfect, from the lyrics to her voice, the beats, i love everything about it. besides it sounds amazing live, ugh her mind!
The beginning is beautiful, the lyrics are beautiful, but I get kinda lost after the falling in love to a song lyric, I think it's cause the beat changes🤷
This what we need: Music made for the pleasure of exploration and art sense. Bjork is still making risky songs and esthetic images while the mediocrity has been the key of the rest of mainstream musical industry the last ten years.
Was it really necessary to bring down other artists to raise bjork up? Mainstream music has plenty of quality artists and songs; you’re just not looking hard enough for them if you claim that it’s all mediocre.
its like the stage was another world and the flutists and harpist and bjork herself were all inhabitants of it, very beautiful i couldn't look away for one second!
THIS IS NEXT LEVEL!! Such lush gorgeousness. this is real magic. insanity, grounded romanticism, expressions of love and longing.. this made my headache go away. such a tricky composition that really turned into its own experience.. and a real stunner for TV! transcendent epicness
All of my mouth was kissing him Now, into the air, I am missing him Is this excess texting a blessing? Two music nerds obsessing He reminds me of the love in me I'm celebrating on a vibrancy Sending each other MP3s Falling in love to a song This handsomest of wickermen He asked if I could wait for him Now, how many lightyears this interim While I fall in love with his songs? His hands are good in protecting me Touching and caressing me But would it be trespassing Wanting him to be blissing me Robbing him of his youth? Cliffhanger-like suspension My longing has formed its own skeleton Bridging the gap between singletons Sending each others these songs The interior of these melodies Is perhaps where we are meant to be Our physical union a fantasy (I just fell) I just fell in love with a song So, I reserve my own intimacies I bundle them up in packages My rawward longing far too visceral Did I just fall in love with love?
i wish she did more performances that we fans can see easily u.u i havent had an opportunity to see her live in the flesh for so many years.. but when i did she did look at me straight in the eyes while singing she was very close! 💗
while definitely one of the highlights of Utopia, this is also another of new Björk songs that sometimes feels to me like it gets a bit lost in itself after a certain point... but the part around 2:04 is absolutely gorgeous, the rhythm gets so weird and I just totally dig it.
She replaced the back vocals with flutes and she love sing in rubato so this music can easily became a mess at live. I think all music in utopia is hard to keep the time because they are kind of chaotic.
Vice Saa i am not a native english speaker so my vocabulary inst great. I made an analysis of her instrumental in my channel. There is a vocal melody line but it expand with other vocal ornaments. In this live version i think she just sang it in rubato (free time) and the voice flow outside the tempo of the instruments.
Su influencia impresionista es muy marcada, esa etérea y suave mezcla de arpa y flautas, sobre los beats un tanto irregulares y orgánicos.¡ Que nunca deje de fluctuar su música!
They’re all different artists. I put Lady Gaga and Björk in my top lists of artists I respect, adore, admire, and deeply love. I don’t like it when people compare them two just because Gaga is weird and eccentric just like Björk. But really, they’re two different people. Gaga is a pop/rock star artist and Björk is an eccentric visual artist. They’re both beautiful and are icons, legends!
Gabriel Corrêa the reason why you don't see male artists subject to this kind of criticism is pretty simple though... because there aren't many male artists as innovative as these ladies are
For anyone wondering, the harpist is the incredible Tara Minton
Thanks. Bjork always works with really talented musicians, they are all worth looking into.

this is a song about sending ur crush music over msn
Hehe yeah, basically. I really love this song though.😂
msn lmao
es ella engatusada por una canción
Musical taste is very intimate indeed much more than flesh
blissing me is definitely one of her best songs , everything about it is perfect, from the lyrics to her voice, the beats, i love everything about it. besides it sounds amazing live, ugh her mind!
dragon Björk and Rupaul? Marry me.
Jacob Newman omg let’s do that king
ugh her mind
The beginning is beautiful, the lyrics are beautiful, but I get kinda lost after the falling in love to a song lyric, I think it's cause the beat changes🤷
why do I love you so much? what kind of magic is this?
she will always not mind it at all!!! go ahead!
you make me sing those lines
because you got good taste and love the beauty of life and art... thanks for like her
it’s just another musical...
I love her bow to the harpist, Tara Minton at the end 🥰
I love it when artists respect other performers.
This what we need: Music made for the pleasure of exploration and art sense. Bjork is still making risky songs and esthetic images while the mediocrity has been the key of the rest of mainstream musical industry the last ten years.
U said it all girl 👏🏻
Amén

BJORK IS ANOTHER LEVEL OF TALENT
its like the stage was another world and the flutists and harpist and bjork herself were all inhabitants of it, very beautiful i couldn't look away for one second!
My spirit just left my body .... am I in heaven now ??!!!
she's just so powerful. her everything... UGH it amazes me all the time
Amazing. My favorite song from Utopia. So sweet
Going on four years later and she is still so far ahead of the curve. She is from the future I'm convinced.
THIS IS NEXT LEVEL!! Such lush gorgeousness. this is real magic. insanity, grounded romanticism, expressions of love and longing.. this made my headache go away. such a tricky composition that really turned into its own experience.. and a real stunner for TV! transcendent epicness
The ShawShank Preneur lush
Her voice is a blessing
SHE ALWAYS IS GOING TO BE THE WORLD'S MOST ORIGINAL, BEAUTIFUL AND MAGIC FAIR.
unsure why this brought me to tears, but thank you bjork
Empathy and praise for nature ... She always points us the way
"no guru please" your sanity speaking
Such a beautiful composition. Wonderful performance, Björk and instrumentalists!
The harp player is such a queen OMG YASSSS
I want to live on the planet she comes from
well.. you are. crazy, right? lol
I know. It was a compliment to say how different and special Bjork is
With Bible black sky, eh ?
Björk really encourages you to try to find your own planet tho.
monowavy this is the best comment ever
I love her way of performing, she slays so easy!
Always a pleasure hearing and seeing Björk. Always ahead of the curve.
With all this tenderness flutes and harp she gives us soft industrial. No words to describe this immensely talented musician.
I feel grateful to still see her being bjork in invariably luminous way. I wish her healthy and well.
musicologist , ! ... flutists : mesmerising , opulent , and beautiful .
A blissful force of nature.
Our physical union a fantasy,
I just fell in love with a song....
All of my mouth was kissing him
Now, into the air, I am missing him
Is this excess texting a blessing?
Two music nerds obsessing
He reminds me of the love in me
I'm celebrating on a vibrancy
Sending each other MP3s
Falling in love to a song
This handsomest of wickermen
He asked if I could wait for him
Now, how many lightyears this interim
While I fall in love with his songs?
His hands are good in protecting me
Touching and caressing me
But would it be trespassing
Wanting him to be blissing me
Robbing him of his youth?
Cliffhanger-like suspension
My longing has formed its own skeleton
Bridging the gap between singletons
Sending each others these songs
The interior of these melodies
Is perhaps where we are meant to be
Our physical union a fantasy
(I just fell) I just fell in love with a song
So, I reserve my own intimacies
I bundle them up in packages
My rawward longing far too visceral
Did I just fall in love with love?
My favorite song on Utopia along with Arisen My Senses!
i wish she did more performances that we fans can see easily u.u i havent had an opportunity to see her live in the flesh for so many years.. but when i did she did look at me straight in the eyes while singing she was very close! 💗
Thank you Bjork, nobody makes love songs anymore except for you. The rest sound like they were made by an algorithm,. not a human.
So gorgeous
Bjork is a true artist in every sense of the word 💜💙💛💚💖💜💙💛💚💖💜
Amazing, wonderful performance!
The Utopia songs sound amazing live. She brings everything to this performances. The aesthetics, the sounds, the feels.
a beautiful performance. makes you wonder if this is what serenity is truly like. ✿ not to mention, the lush greenness around her!!!! breathtaking.
Arte pura, como pode existir alguem nesse nivel de perfeição? Sou completamente apaixonada ❤

i agree!!! i didnt think anyone else felt that way! still love it tho
Why she gotta be so perfect?
Transcendental. 💜💫
perfect
Que coisa mais linda que lindo esplendor 🍀🌺💗💚💜💓♥️🌺
Su influencia impresionista es muy marcada, esa etérea y suave mezcla de arpa y flautas, sobre los beats un tanto irregulares y orgánicos.¡ Que nunca deje de fluctuar su música!
It sounds amazing with good headphones!
They are nessesary to discover the real beauty of "Utopia", "Medulla", "Volta" and "Vespertine" in my opinion!
Incrivel como gosto dessa voz ! 🇧🇷
Você é fã dela?
Dios... ¡la amo tanto!
Goddess.
Their smiles at the end!! So sweet
what a gorgeous woman and such a beautiful smile! there is no one like her in this Universe!
This is how I want to fall in love PERIOD
Her music makes me imagine eternity. I don't think of heaven or hell, just eternity.
this is like one of my favorite songs thank you and sounds like a remix version of it good show Bjork#
Queen of Pentacles. Queen of my heart ♥️
Definitivamente Björk es y será la que complace mis oídos y parte de mi ser...❤

Omg this intellectual trying to matter how cute!
bigzaklyon Ugh! Every one of her wig she wears is from every one of her victims she scalped! I stan!
@@gibranmarquez7905 your long name tho.

My favorite quirky, long before Sia or Gaga there was Bjork.
C Henrique While this is true, Sia's not a recent artist. She's been making music for 25 years now.
They’re all different artists. I put Lady Gaga and Björk in my top lists of artists I respect, adore, admire, and deeply love. I don’t like it when people compare them two just because Gaga is weird and eccentric just like Björk. But really, they’re two different people. Gaga is a pop/rock star artist and Björk is an eccentric visual artist. They’re both beautiful and are icons, legends!
Vice Saa what vice said... Gaga is awful. And idk about sias early career but all the music I've heard from her is also generic pop garbage
Gabriel Corrêa the reason why you don't see male artists subject to this kind of criticism is pretty simple though... because there aren't many male artists as innovative as these ladies are
WTF Gaga??? She's very pretentious... She's not a real talent artist... her career is full of payola..... just a ridiculous marionette!
Ela é tão maravilhosa e eu amo tanto essa música
I love this woman and her music
Bjork i love u. I understand u. Poor those ones who dont.
Conmovedor 😍
Aw, this is even better and more beautiful live!
@Björk hermosa presentación, te amo tanto, saludos desde México 🇲🇽 💙💙
