Björk's Grail-laden "Who Is It?" video

I have loved Björk ever since first hearing her waaaay back in 1988. She charmed me and still gives me goosebumps. But when I saw this video for the first time AFTER passing the threshold into sovereignty, I saw a lot in it that I had not before!

edit: LOL i just saw at 2:38 a finger-shaped cloud 'pointing' at the mountaintop when she's singing "who is it that never let you down?" and this video is so simple... i keep finding more stuff though!

"Who Is It"

His embrace, a fortress
It fuels me
And places
A skeleton of trust
Right beneath us
Bone by bone
Stone by stone
If you ask yourself patiently and carefully:
Who is it ?
Who is it that never lets you down ?
Who is it that gave you back your crown ?
And the ornaments are going around
Now they're handing it over
Handing it over

He demands a closeness
We all have earned a lightness
Carry my joy on the left
Carry my pain on the right

If you ask yourself patiently and carefully:
Who is it ?
Who is it that never lets you down ?
Who is it that gave you back your crown ?
And the ornaments are going around
Now they're handing it over
Handing it over
"Who is it that never let you down? Who is it that gave you back your crown?" -Björk

I had never understood the words untill now. Strange how songs slip along our sides and become the noise that surrounds us.

Kind of like nature, most go for walks, yet ignoring the terrian, still pulged into the daily coas of life.

Nice song.!

You put put most of her songs up here I think ... I have her first 3 or 4 albums but back then I was just allowed to enjoy her voice and not the meaning ;)

Thanx for inspiring me to go through her discography again after such a long time. My "The truth was always there" collection is growing :)

"All Is Full Of Love"

You'll be given love
You'll be taken care of
You'll be given love
You have to trust it

Maybe not from the sources
You have poured yours
Maybe not from the directions
You are staring at

Twist your head around
It's all around you
All is full of love
All around you

All is full of love
You just ain't receiving
All is full of love
Your phone is off the hook
All is full of love
Your doors are all shut
All is full of love

All is full of love

"I Miss You"

I miss you
But I haven't met you yet
So special
But it hasn't happened yet
You are gorgeous
But I haven't met you yet
I remember
But it hasn't happened yet

And if you believe in dreams
Or what is more important
That a dream can come true
I will meet you

I was peaking
But it hasn't happened yet
I haven't been given
My best souvenir
I miss you
But I haven't met yu yet
I know your habits
But wouldn't recognize you yet

And if you believe in dreams
Or what is more important
That a dream can come true
I will meet you

I'm so impatient
I can't stand the wait
When will I get my cuddle?
Who are you?

I know by now that you'll arrive
But the time I stop waiting

I miss you

Yeah, Deckard!

Ø has used all sorts of music to speak to me since I opened up to it back around the time of my first acid trips. (88-89) Of course i wasn't able to hear clearly until recently, but still I was given much hope and comfort through the musicians I have been drawn to over the years. I'm going to put up a Peter Gabriel video now...

:D
