Beast Boy Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 Always been a fan since ‘Hit’ by The Sugar Cubes. Definite musical Marmite, I reckon. I absolutely love a lot of her stuff over the years. Tin-hat well and truly secured. I await the onslaught! 😀 🐧 💋 (😉) Quote

Dawnrazor Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 Aye, but there were no "minorities" in the Sugarcubes so they and her are obviously racist so I'll never listen to her. Quote

Blissfully unaware of what you are referring to, but I do remember her lashing out at her at an airport. Maaaaaaaaan... I just like her music, tbh. I also like that she’s in to trying to save the environment, but I was hoping to keep politics out of it. Anyway, I’ll have a wee look at the “evil witch” stuff and come back on to accept my penance in a few minutes... Quote
Dawnrazor Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I saw the Sugarcubes, I think in The Venue, but may have been Tbe Studios, a bit to "indie" fir me but good and distinctive. I'd appreciate them more now I think I was just too Punk/Goth/Metal at the time. Quote
Cade Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 A weird and wonderful musician who has inspired countless others in various genres. The Icelandic Kate Bush. Quote

Only seen Björk once, at a Greenpeace gig in the concert hall in Reykjavik. Quote

Cruyff Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I thought this was a thread about Brant Bjork, if it had of been I would agree. Not really heard much of Bjorks music tbh. Quote

ƒιѕнρℓαρѕ Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I love her, I love any artist who's weird and doing things I'd never dream of, she's an utter force of nature. I don't personally like her music much but I love that she exists and is doing it, people like wee Björk are invaluable to the human race. She may be a prick on a personal level, I don't know her, but we need more Björks IMO. Quote

Tazio Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 Some of the stuff she did with Nellee Hooper and Tricky was absolutely huge. And in terms of her being “an evil wee bitch” was this the case when an obsessed fan sent her a letter bomb and killed himself so they could be together in heaven yet she sent flowers and wrote to his family sending commiserations?

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 Iceland has not only given us Bjork but Sigur Ros as well, one of the most unique and epic sounding bands you are likely to hear anywhere! I wish they didn't give us that thunder clap thing though or was that Murderwell's fault 🙄 Quote

Incredible performer and musician. Quote
