I can sense it
Something important,
Is about to happen
It's coming up

It takes courage to enjoy it
The hardcore and the gentle,
Big time sensuality

We just met,
And I know I'm a bit too intimate,
But something huge is coming up,
And we're both included

It takes courage to enjoy it
The hardcore and the gentle,
Big time sensuality

I don't know my future after this weekend
And I don't want to

It takes courage to enjoy it
The hardcore and the gentle
Big time sensuality

There are songs that come across the RP airwaves that make me drop what I'm doing to make sure I rated it an 8 or above. This one gets me every time.

Yeah it's Bjork, but I wish there was some credit for the band.  Those are some good synth riffs.  I'm guessing that's not Hal Blaine and the Wrecking Crew, lol.

Interesting combination of disco and Sprechgesang (spoken singing).

I think she's channeling a bit of Bobcat Goldthwait in there occasionally...
Posted 2 years ago by bc    [ Reply ]
It's interesting that I never heard this song until maybe 2008.  Clear Channel and commercial FM radio pretty much screwed me out of a lot of years of good music.  Back then I had no idea where to look for this stuff.

Bjork is very much welcome - such gems in her catalogue, for me notably on the Vespertine album. 👍

There was a BBC radio program transmitted around 6pm fronted by Ned Sherrin called Loose Ends. He'd have the likes of Hiatt and Bjork on the show if they were in the UK generally and London particularly. Driving home one Saturday Bjork was being interviewed. Some so so mumble and then you are going to sing for us from Sherrin. Off  she went unaccompanied, unfazed and absolutely pitch perfect and eccentric. Been  a fan ever since..

If you've never seen the film 'Dancer in the Dark', in which Bjork starred and wrote the soundtrack, I highly recommend it. It is some of her best music, IMHO.

The description below does not do justice to the haunting, imaginative, and tragic nature of the film.

Dancer in the DarkDancer
in the Dark is a 2000 English-language Danish musical melodrama film
written and directed by Lars von Trier. It stars Icelandic musician
Björk as a daydreaming immigrant factory worker who suffers from a
degenerative eye condition and is saving up to pay for an operation to
prevent her young son from suffering the same fate.Wikipedia

Thanks Bill and Rebecca. I don't where else we would get Lady Gaga, Derek Trucks and Bjork in the same half hour. No place else on radio.

Phone rings...

"Hello... this is the Dublin Dating Agency - how may I help you today?"

"Yes, I am on a blind date that you arranged for me but the girl is some crazy bitch from Iceland!"

"Oh dear - I am sorry but there seems to be a typo mistake - we have mixed up Iceland and Ireland in your notes. I am terribly sorry - I will arrange another date on Friday night for you with an Irish girl... her name is... Sinead O'Connor.  Let us know how that goes will you?".

"Uh - OK thank you".

He he.....

I look forward to you starting your own radio station, so I can immediately not listen to it and crap on the stuff I don't like.  Because that would be dumb and a waste of time.
