"Defying Beauty With Bjork"

"What probably confuses people is they know alot about me, but it quite pleases me that there's more they don't know."- Bjork






She is a unique lyrical genius who has the ability to bring her words to life in picturesque, vibrant, and strange visual images. Her words explore the deeper meanings of life and the society around us. Whether it is politics, love, emotions, or everyday life...she has the ability to relate to the inner being inside of us in a rather strange, yet satisfying way.

Valiant Expression Airways has landed in Iceland to take an inside look at one of the most beautiful and unique music artist of our time...Bjork. Born Bjork Guomundsdottir (try saying that three time fast, haha!), she is a musical genius. She is also an actor, producer, and composure. So, she's pretty well rounded. She's one of my top 5 favorite music artists of all time, and she's been out for a very...very...very long time. I'm talking since the late 70's. Lady Bjork has also starred and appeared in host of Icelandic movies.

Here is her discography (the list of albums that she has released)

- Bjork (1977)

-Debut (1993)

-Post (1995)

-Homogenic (1997)(One my personal favorites! ^-^)

-Vespertine (2001)

-Medulla (2004)

-Volta (2007)

Her music videos are also unlike any other music videos i've ever seen. Not only are they incredibly visually appealing, but they are rather disturbing. Back in 2008, her music video for the song, "Wanderlust" (featured on her 2007 album, Volta) had to be one the creepiest music videos I have ever watched, and I rarely enjoy watching music videos like that.

Here's the video to her song, "Wanderlust", just click on the url (I don't know how to put videos on her yet, silly me! >.<)




It is such a visually astounding video and I can't understand why her videos aren't played like anything. It upsets me, because it beats half of the crap the media plays this day in age! >.<

But, all in all, she is a lyrical and visual genius. She is unlike any other music artist I have listened to...she is such an inspiration and she is just amazing. Plain and Simple. I don't really have a favorite song by her because I pretty much love all of them...I cannot say one bad thing about them.

You never really hear much about the country of Iceland. But when you hear Iceland...most think of one person, and that is Bjork. Her blend of ambient, classic, and electronica is truly soothing to the mind, body, and soul. So, get lost in the world that is above and beyond beauty. The world of Bjork.
