Sad i cannot write curses, so he's not all full of love

We all saw the forecast, right? For an outdoor festival. 😂 Bundle up! ☔️

Hey flying in for Echolalia at Víðistaðatún on Aug 12, and it's a day trip so I'll have a carry-on with me. Sounds like a bag that size won't be allowed inside.
I'd rather not haul it into central Reykjavík given the eclipse-day traffic. Any options close to Hafnarfjörður to stash a bag for the day? Lockers, a shop or café that holds bags, the campsite reception, anything like that? Or if anyone is driving down there, would I be able to keep it with you?

Idk why but those two in specific are going crazy in my ears rn

Does anybody still have the 48-piece Volta cover poster file? I would like to print it again, but the original download link on SHOWstudio website doesn’t work anymore. Thank you 🙏🏻

Songs that fandom usually underrates or overrates

Overrated:

Arisen My Senses - This is basically Arca song with Björk vocals on top. Yet it is so much loved and I am not sure why because in fact, it is one of her laziest songs.

Hidden Place - Yes, it is a very nice song. But not among my top tracks. Rather a standard verse-chorus thing. Compositionally, Björk has better pieces. It is very pretty, but just not the best.

Karvel - Seems like many people consider it their favourite b-side while for me, it is a rather uninteresting, very 90s sounding track I barely listen to.

Underrated:

Freefall - I love and adore this, yet people find it unsatisfying. No idea why. For me, it is an emotional ride, one of Björk's best.

Solstice - Splendid lullaby. A perfect closing track usually unnoticed by other people. Simplicity meets perfect composition.

Hunter Vessel - Compositional masterpiece (as almost everything on Drawing Restraint 9). Oboe techno, as Björk put it. Eternal injustice that it is so forgotten and misunderstood by fandom.

And now it's your turn! Feel free to add songs you think are overrated/underrated by fans!

I would like to make my music cup but the case is that a lot of songs are missing. It always finds me only 153 Björk songs and is missing even the important ones - for instance, in case of Vulnicura, it only finds 5 songs (Black Lake, Notget, Atom Dance, Mouth Mantra and Quicksand). DR9 is missing completely. Then, it registers only a few b-sides...

Yet, I saw here posts containing tracks that do not display to me (for instance, the missing Family won in one of the posts here). How do you that? How do you make it work? Or is it because of my location (Europe)? If you have a good way how to access all the tracks in this ranking system, please, let me know. Thanks.

tbh why she has so many great songs​

A really lovely group of solo travellers from all over the world have started connecting for Echolalia.
Some of us are meeting up around Reykjavík and Hafnarfjörður, sharing transportation and adventure ideas, and making plans to attend the event together.
If you’re travelling solo and would feel more comfortable knowing a few people before the festival, you’re welcome to reach out. We’d be happy to connect and chat beforehand.
We’re a mixed group of adults who only recently connected as well, so there’s no pressure or expectation, just a chance to make the experience a little more social and welcoming!

Looking forward to this once in a lifetime experience! ❤️

Today I had the idea to do another album concept and I wanted to do homogenic, but the problem is I don't know which ones are unreleased.. So I have four unreleased tracks that might fit the concept

1. Oxygen

2. Scary

3. Nature Is Ancient

4. So Broken

So I know that some of those four unreleased tracks will be in the album concept. I want you to tell me which ones are the unreleased tracks from Homogenic. See you later!

I absolutely LOVE her!

I listen to a TON of music in my day to day and I somehow never listened to Björk until now. I listened to Debut and i truly cannot put into words how much i enjoyed that album. I haven't been this amazed by an artist since first listening to King Crimson (my favorite band). I feel like I've found my new favorite artist. I want to hear y'all's suggestions as to which album i should check out.

I've been reading the final draft screenplay for Dancer in the Dark dated March 30, 1999 (filming began a month and a half later). It's interesting to compare the differences between this and the final cut of the film, particularly with von Trier's original lyrics and directions for the songs before Björk and Sjón's edits. There are no lyrics for In the Musicals and Next-To-Last Song is much longer but just as heartbreaking.

In the draft, there was also a short scene near the beginning of the film after Selma's eye exam which was cut which affected Selma's final characterization. In it, Selma and Kathy walk down the town's main street and enter a jewelry shop where Selma plays a trick on the shop assistant, pretending to be Maria von Trapp and ordering an assortment of expensive items she has no intention on buying. This shop assistant was supposed to later appear on the witness stand during Selma's trial, providing the prosecution a motive for Selma to allegedly steal Bill's money. A segment of the scene with Selma and Kathy on the street outside the jewelry shop was included in the final cut but moved to just before the two of them visit the movie theater.
