There was a story about this team. Last year or....

Anyway the agent attempted to book them in Toronto or some place up north and the bar said no dice.

We cannot have this type of porno here.

hahahahaha

And the agent attempted to explain that the band's name had nothing to do with...

hahhaahahha

I thought it was funny.

The fact is, this group is neither bare, naked or ladies ... but that sure is a great tune!

I like the video of her from the same concert that came on after the state of emergency video. She does great visuals too.

I finally had a chance to sit and watch this video. For all her supposed weirdness, Bjork has a vulnerability that doesn't seem to be quite in sync with her quirkiness and that makes her interesting ... at least, to me I like the play on words re: state of emergency, i.e. being in a state where who you are is emerging and enjoying being in that state of discovery as opposed to the normal meaning of being in a state of emergency. The song doesn't develop much though, although perhaps I need to listen to it a few more times to get the full effect. I wanted to see it reach more of a climax and resolution, but I still found it a good listen. Thanks for sharing it with me.

She was, she said, in
a state of emergency,
and then, she emerged.

Oh I forgot.

The real version of the song is on an album called Homogenic. The contrapuntal play of words in the lyrics is interesting.
A big thing about her work is the instrument. If you don't really dig what she is doing with her voice, the rest becomes conceptual.
