Bjork. Love. Lust. Pagan Poetry

I am hooked with Bjork lately. For some reason, her queerness fascinates me. She is often described as a woman-child because of her voice and the way she looks. But what is amazing about her is that she combines innocence and sensuality when she sings, which is totally extraordinary. I bet if she is a porn star, she is definitely a queen especially in Japan!hahahahaha!! But good thing she isn't. I think she is better as a singer, right?

Bjork's lyrics is also sexy. I mean, her imageries perfectly depicts the emotion her song wanted to convey without being mushy at all. The same thing goes with her videos. Like practically all of them are totally original, like it has her trademark or something.

Listening to Bjork is like a sexual awakening of some sort. Like you are in for some exploration that starts from the groin and all the way up to your head because you just can't get over it. It gives you a certain high, but it is not really addictive. Then eventually, when you get to listen to her more intently, you would get to realize something deeper. Somewhat like getting in to a more serious relationship.

Bjork symbolizes a newfound relationship. Well, not exactly new, but newfound technically. An exploration of some sort. Right now, I am in the midst of exploring and at the same time delving deeper into this emotional crater, as I would want to call it. This might sound a bit crazy, but her songs act like an emotional comforter to me. Like it embraces the thought of me going through this carousel and at the same time somewhat like assuring me that there is nothing wrong to get into the ride and enjoy it. I believe that's what her song would want to imply...more or less. Even if a particular song is about unrequited love.

I just hope though that should the ride gets rough and bumpy, it would be comfortable still!
