"Let's celebrate now, while there's flesh on our bones"...well said...

For those who don't get it, That is called BUTOH. Butoh was a movement that began in Japan in the late fifties. It was rebellion against Western dance and Japanese Traditional dance. It also has it's roots in German Expressionism.(Die Neue Tanz) Don't talk trash about things you can't understand. Go online and do some research first! BUTOH - BUTOH- BUTOH

That was unspeakably beautiful and one of the best video's I have seen on you tube in quite some time.

I thank my mother every day for having a great taste in music, because through her I got to know this miracle called Björk. If only she got more recognition, instead of all those worthless pop singers who are only looking for money and have no appreciation for lyrics and even the music itself, for instance. This is real music, you guys!! It's time for the rest of the world to realize it. This and rock music of course.

+Yaara C well i wouldnt call it "real music" but i get what you mean. In terms of musicology i believe that Björk is far ahead of our time like Mozart or Bach was. She is a pillar to the futuristic music and compositions.

She got lots of recognition. She just went off her rocker after Volta. In my opinion that was her last great album. From there it just became random noise. I miss Bjork from the early days 🥲😓😢

Stunningly weirdly amazingly uniquely beautiful..... what an incredible talent Bjork has.

I was really moved by the dancer trying to get up off the sand. I'm disabled and I have bad arms and it made me relate to the awkwardness and struggle to get up. the bit with the marbles in the rain left me with a nice image. very pleasant with deeper unspecified undertones. Nice video!

True art outshines expensive production methods every time. The simplicity of this video strongly emphasizes fine emotional details without overpowering the audio. A subtle yet strange & powerful video that pays great compliment to the song.

That is what I call an awesome music video! I think this guy who made it really is a big fan of Bjork's songs and videos!

this is one of the greatest songs ever.....it's as if this was the greatest love song ever, but so much more as well....it's to deep to be just a love song....this is expression of true beauty

Love this comment ❤️

a real harmony between image and music congretulations ! and such a great singer !

I don't so much listen to this song but much more I feel it

Love love love this song. So much passion in her voice. Just about brings tears in the eye. Very beautiful

"Yo veo quien eres , debajo de la piel y los musculos" palabras maravillosas sobre todo cuando aquel quien amas ha podido verte de ese modo, verte más allá de todo, hasta de la misma piel.

this is a beautiful butoh performance, and a great song.the two go really well. i love it. great job on the experiments in the video too!

"...y despues, al final de este siglo cuando tu y yo tengamos que ser cadaveres ...vamos a celebrar ahora toda esta carne sobre nuestros huesos ...dejame abrazarte contra mi... hermeticamente ...vamos a celebrar ahora toda esta carne sobre nuestros huesos y disfrutar cada parte de ti...veo quien eres" Qué hermosa canción!

my musical tastes vary .......jazz ,soul,funk,electronica r&b (of old).Never really thought that much about Bjork but this track has stolen my heart and mind absolutely genius.Her voice comes through so well so simple so pure so true . I`ve been converted just by hearing this . thank you.

nothing better than a experimental type of artistical manifestation

I usually hear totally different music, but björk makes me think everything is peacefull and quiet, I love her music :)

I love Bjork & knew her from the movie "Dancer in the Dark", she's me, I am her, in that movie she represents me ♥

How lovely!

Bjork liked so much "Onibaba" - i read - and this video is really fantastic!

Congratulate! You have created a worthy visual aid for a musical masterpiece.

Je trouve que Bjork c'est la passion du "détail" Un détail qui touche à l'essence. Tout a de la valeur, on dirait que tout est précieusement choisi pour ce qu'il est puis composé dans un ensemble qui fait une "atmosphère". Ce clip va bien à la chanson ::)

Amazing show of self expression!

This is my new favorite bjork song

there is bjork and prince and everyone else ;)

@ echels: that is a Chinese pipa played by Min Xiao-Fen :) The song is on Björk's latest album Volta.

magical & beautiful !

This is my favorite song from 'Volta' - very nice video, a great interpretation of the sound, well done :-)

those marbles look TASTY!

This should be an official clip!...

EXCELENTE...FANTASTICO !!!!....Felicitaciones Nori...toda una inspiración !!!

If I was bjork and i see this.. I would be proud

Esta mujer está muy adelantada a su tiempo, su música es un viaje al futuro.

me encantaaa

i love this video so much

Beautiful!!

Heard this on Skins. Lovely song!

Thank you for posting this Jicken5. It was very nice.

i love you bjork !!!!!!!!

Wow! I love this!

I this music video...This song (I believe) is the Central or heart of the album Volta & as such (I believe) is strongest song on the album

@rankine67 That's the thing about Björk, if you don't like 1 track, listen to the next. She has so much creative range, from pop-ballad, to heavy experimental electronic, eventually she will trigger your tastes.

I LOOOOOOOOOOVE Bjork!

I do too 10 years later.

So how does such a beautiful, passionate love song go in one ear and out the other of so many people? See to the core of the being, passed the skin, bones and muscles to the heart. Their is only one race. The human race. In all it's rainbow shades. So let's "enjoy each other now". Let's celebrate up close and personal. We don't have to be "like" each other. That is counterproductive to diversity, which is the ONLY soul of life. We cloister in blackness, whiteness to our detriment. Love!!!

very nice music!!

sounds lke something from vespertine

i love you bjork!

no hablo espanol muy bien...ella a hizo musica desde las 80's en un grupo que se llama The Sugarcubes. Hoy is la futura!

love

Thank you. I initially thought it was Pencak Silat, an Indonesian martial art. The movements are similar.

Extraordinary

Love Bjork 👍

Boiling Marbles!!!! bwaahahahahahaha, beautiful!

great work!

great butoh performance!

@SomethinRofl yeah, totally agree with you.... its like my emotions..imagination are all pulled into the physical world. and i suddenly feel her words and sounds themselves.

really nice video

Bjork knows Stymphalian birds (Greek: Στυμφαλίδες ὄρνιθες, Stymphalídes órnithes) a group of birds in Greek mythology . The Sixth Labour of Heracles ... Athena, noticing the hero's plight, gave Heracles a rattle ( rattlesnake ) called a krotala, which Hephaestus had made especially for the occasion. Heracles shook the krotala rattle and frightened the birds into the air. Heracles then shot many of them with arrows tipped with poisonous blood from the slain Hydra. ... Peisander of Kamira (Camira), however, says that Herakles did not kill the birds, but drove them away with the noise of rattles. The Argonauts later encountered them.

Se llama spacebowl, es una percusión increíble y hermosa.

drives me crazy every time i hear!!!!!

Butoh dance... good song

maravilloso

magnifique ...

@Kohrote gaga is very similar to bjork(as similar as u can be:), gaga however sells her talent to easy because being mainstream requires that.

And enjoy every bit of you, love bird.

Crying

I would be afraid to put thoughts like this in a form of a song... It makes them real.

❤️❤️

I need drougs to enjoy this.......lol just kidding! this is epic *¬*

@AttentionAliens You can also search for: "BUTOH DANCE", right here in KZread.

i think its safe to say that ending was marble-ous! get it? ya get it? :)

Righteouse loves Bjork!

@81856686 If you are talking about her voice, I don't think they could be more different. Bjork's voice is incredibly powerful and can soar like some strange bird, while nico voice is a lot more raw and more restained (not there is anything wrong with that, I love Nico's voice). You have good taste though, if you like both Nico and Bjork.

I like it.. Butoh dance is allways interesting to watch..

That was real smart. :P

You can go into their world :P You've probably already gotten a taste, but you've been safe.

Def not about her daughter (I hope). "Let's celebrate now these flesh on our bones. Passionate Lover. Let me push you up against me tightly." A beautiful song.

SLICE MY TOFU!!!

Qué comentario tan acertado!!

Nice song! What are the strings that are played at 1:22?

@echels I dont know, but my friend has a mandolin and was able to emulate the same sound...it was beautiful!

@Kohrote cool! thanks

Comments like this one put a big smile in my face. Let's celebrate now all this flesh on our bones; let me push you up against me tightly and enjoy every bit of you!!! thank you for your beautiful thoughts.

Can Björk at least give me one fucking minute to disapprove her or she just can do no wrong?

I how I would convert!

some day....

Although it is somewhat sexual, I have a feeling Björk wrote this song for her daughter, Isadora. Can anyone else see it or am I just being stupid?

Isadora, so close to Isobel. Now I'm wondering what to name my first daughter. But yes, when I first heard the first part of the lyrics, I thought it was about a S/O, then I thought, oh, she's just talking about herself, and getting older. But perhaps it is about her daughter. It is beautiful regardless
