TIMESTAMPS 1:53 Army of Me 5:25 Big Time Sensuality 8:49 Joga 14:14 Oral 18:25 Venus as a Boy 22:24 FINAL THOUGHTS
"Is this real life right now, bro?" My reaction too hearing Joga for the first time dude. Favorite song all time
Vespertine is her best album imo
Yes sir
Yes bro holy w
freaking local
@@ilislolThe album is genuinely genius asf
homogenic up there
You need listen "All is Full of Love" and "Unison"
Felt the same way when i listened to Joga for the first time 😵😂
your reaction to Joga was literally how i felt the first time i heard it many moons ago - she's transcendental!
I actually love that you are not watching the music videos, just listening to the songs!
she is indeed the best female artist
My Gen X soul is overflowing seeing the youth loving Bjork. Such a genius, so uniquely her. LEGEND.
Yes you finally listened to her!! My second favorite musical artist ever 🔥 So glad that you enjoyed Joga this song is so beautiful. I can't wait for you to listen to the rest of her discography
She’s so incredible 😫
19:25 yes she does and that's just incredible. She is so unique, like there is no other artist like her anywhere.
holy shit!! one of my favourite artists and one of my favourite reactors. this shit gon be good 😁😁
“I LOVE ORAL!” Bro 🤦
👏🏼👏🏼🥂. Congratulations on your 1st Bjork Experience (Bee-Yerk) 😉. Its usually hit or miss for most & Im so Enthused by ur Genuine Appreciation and Love of her work . She writes, composes, arranges , produces the vast majority of her work or usually collabs with others. She was a child prodigy in classical music and learned many instruments . Ahe joined several rock punk bands before going Solo in the early 90s. I Usually don't say this about many artists HOWEVER When it comes to Bjork , I Highly Recommend listening to her Solo Discography in Chronological Order of Release. Her Sonic Evolution will Blow You Away and make you realize how many of todays artists have been inspired by her and her soundscapes . - Debut - Post - Homogenic - Vespertine - Medulla - Volta - Biophilia - Vulnicura - Utopia - Fossora My last comment and suggestion regarding Bjork is that as a True Artist and Creator she not only creates these Amazing Songs but also creates Equally as Amazing Music Videos for her songs , that feel like a Missing piece of an Artistic Puzzle . Def wear Headphones . Cheers 🥂 and again Welcome to the Beautiful World of BJORK
What a wonderful reaction - it always feels like magic when an artist appears that just speaks to your soul, and I think that's what we saw! 😊Bjork's musical beauty and genius can be overwhelming - personally I'm a sucker for Venus as a Boy, I think it's one of the sexiest songs I've ever heard, and is so unbelievable beautiful. I'd say have fun with your deep dive, but I think that's a given! 😁
I haven't seen or heard anyone more creative and original than Bjork. Thanks for the great reaction, and when you said she's ahead of her time you got it right :)
W VIDEO RICKY you my fave person
Love bro 🫂❤️
Coming in at 69 comment. Keep on keeping on, bromigo. Gritos from Tejas. The rabbit hole is vast… I’m envious. Fair journey.
Your reaction to Joga is the same as mine it was so good the first time I heard it
Post is the best starting point to get an overall feel of her work, or if you want to throw your self in the deep end medulla is really experimental but amazing
For the full Björk experience, have to listen to Pluto 😂. My all time favorite Björk song is Isobel followed closely by Unison, both are beautifully sung by her
Nice reaction ! Vulnicura is also a great album.
Homogenic(1997), Vespertine(2001) and Vulnicura(2015) would be my pick. All 3 are accessable , unlike other albums😊 And these 3 are my favourite ‘concept’ albums by Björk.
Amazing vid as always !! Yooo Björk never misses !! One of my favorite artists ever no question. Not sure if anyone recommended her album Fossora from 2022 but it is a Must listen to me in all her catalog, and I’ve heard it all. Atopos, Victimhood, Her Mother’s House, Fungal City. Trolla Gabba is like a cherry bomb instrumental but better ! You’ll never have a bad pick no matter what you choose. NO ONE else like her, period bro. It’s insane, she absolutely sweeps.
Homogenic is incredible. But if you want the best experience of the album. I implore you to listen to Debut and Post first. You really get to grow with her artistically and on a more selfish note, I’d like to see your reaction to Debut and Post lol
Finally someone reacts to Joga how I do... every time... lol.
Homogenic and Vespertine ❤❤❤
Bjork is amazing! She is one of the influential artists of the last 35 years. ‘Oral’ was actually a collaboration with Rosalia - another incredible contemporary artist well worth a deep dive into… Edit; now that I think about it you must react to Rosalia’s El Mal Querer or her most recent masterpiece Motomami. Or just watch the video for La Fama (the fame, with guest the Weekend) if you can handle the heat 🔥
Omg I love Bo-chork ❤️
Homogenic is a masterpiece from the songs to the cover art. If you liked Jóga that much you need to listen to Unravel, All is Full of Love, Pagan Poetry and Stonemilker.
her names pronounced like Byork. I recommend starting simple with Debut if you want to ease into her style, but if you do want to jump into the deep end then Homogenic is a great one, as well as Vespertine. Both are highly regarded (Vespertine is my favourite)
Good to know I pronounced it wrong throughout this whole vid 😓 & thanks for the suggestions!
@@SoloRicky_ It's really kinda closer to "byerk" or "byoerk". Now try her last name haha
@@SoloRicky_ haha its all good, it's a common mistake.
I knew Joga would get him.
Post is her masterpiece in my opinion. Possibly Maybe is an amazing song
Vulnicura is so underated, you gotta listen to that next!! So diff too
If I were to recommend an album to start with, it would be Post. Homogenic, Vespertine, and Vulnicura are some of my other favorite albums of hers. Her voice is absolutely insane. The only person I consider to be one the same level as Bjork vocally and creatively is AURORA (who you should also listen to). I've seen her perform live (the best concert I've ever been to.) and she reduced the entire theater to tears. People we just hugging and crying for a good portion of the show. Her voice is so powerful and pure live that it makes you tear up. She does produce a lot of her music, or works closely with the producers. She really like adding a lot of natural and experimental sound into her music. It can be as simple as stepping in a box of small pebbles to create a certain sound. She uses a lot of experimental instruments too. Look up the ReacTable. She used it when I saw her live and it was really interesting.
Do a deep dive. Every album is thematic
Venus as a boy is fiiire :D love bjork
also check out her other band The Sugarcubes, specefically Hit and Birthday such great tracks!
i think post is the best starting point but vespertine and homogenic are generally considered to be her best (i agree) btw your channel is dope! you should react to quebec by ween
I agree with Post being the best starting point. I think it primes people for the weirdness to come. It was my first Bjork album and it was so impactful when I was growing up. I love Vespertine and Homogenic too, but Post has a special place in my heart.
Thanks, I think I’ll start with post and follow up with homogenic based of all the goods things I’ve heard!!
Finding Björk from quanos is crazy
Bjórk (Birch) is the jewel of the Nordic region. 808 State are really good backers. Think they were in Big Time Sensuality at least.
Woooooha Big Time, 1995 ish……well. All I can say is yes…..*cough, splutter*
You should listen to twin fantasy by car seat headrest dude!! It’s got a really sick garage band sound to it while also not sounding like any other album I’ve ever heard, great lyrics too
Listen to Homogenic. Front to back, best album by her.
OMG FUCK YES WOOHOOOOOO💥💥💥💥💥
Dude you gotta listen to Homogenic. The first 5 tracks one after another are.....beyond compare. they are INSANE.
Listen to homogenic first and then listen to vespertine
18:01 is so real
please react to dean blunt🙏🙏🙏 W reaction
In love you solo..ñbut you should have started with "the sugarcubes".. That was the band that pronunciation here Byork. Like new york but byork. She's from Iceland. Play the Sugarcubes. You'll understand why they were so popular in the 90's
16:34 Take a step back, J Cole and never see the light of day again... 4k Moments, Left a like it going in the chronicles fr
❤❤❤❤
I ran to the comments to see someone correcting your absolute massacre of björks pronunciation, and not a single person has corrected you lmao
It's not "Buuh...Jork", it's "Byirk" (rhymes with "work") and it means "birch".
Never even heard any of these either and I've been listening to her since the 90s lol.
You never heard Big Time Sensuality, Venus As A Boy, or Army of Me? Even Joga?
I'm sorry but that's impossible. Maybe you've known about her since the 90s (perhaps you've heard It's Oh So Quiet in a commercial or something) but if you've never heard Army of me, Venus as a Boy and Jóga you haven't been listening to her.
Believe it or not you were very close in pronouncing Björk name correctly. The "B" is correct but after that jork portion is pronounced like yerk. think of jerk pronounced with a "y" and there you go.
COMMENT 2 1. As usual there's some dubious/obviously-wrong lines in those transcribed lyrics - I've no idea which website he was looking at, but it's not remotely a substitute for the CD booklets which include (more often than not) printed lyrics. If it was linked to Spotify - bad decision on their part! ; 2. It could be worse - at least, unlike some, this lyric website wasn't absolutely weighed down with scat vocal phrases mistaken for English words - but it still had Icelandic lines, and English lines, which aren't really there, as Bjork scholars know.
COMMENT 1 Lessons this guy has yet to learn - three "golden rules of reaction video" which shouldn't need to be written down:- Never sing - especially to songs you don't know every detail of, and especially not when you're drowning out a capital-G Great singer; Never "talk back to" the lyrics like some under-developed four year old - that's not only not very funny, it's actually horrifying in its implications; Never - and this is coming from someone who's had to learn the same lesson - dance on camera like some embarrassing grandparent trying to appear with-it!
You should 100% listen to Tilte Fight specifically there album shed it’s my favourite and it’s literally amazing!!
“I LOVE ORAL!” Bro 🤦
