i feel so mature. her lyric "i am a fountain of blood, in the shape of a girl" wont leave my mind, god, its stuck in my ears like wax. and while making dinner tonight, i started to cry as i listened to 'it's oh so quiet' because it felt like a love letter to music itself, but also to the experience of falling in love, which we so childishly continue to do, in spite of it all. it was just so beautiful. i felt overwhelmed with the outpouring of love from it. it feels very much like an homage to sinatra and the crescendos that are sewn into songs from that era, of croons and blue moons. i adore that. and don't get me started on big time sensuality...

I have been going back to Björk’s old music and she is such a visionary. Listening to mouths cradle right now and it’s so stereo and amazing.

This album means so much to me… the universal experience of listening to an album at a turning point in your life that also happens to be one of the best pop albums you’ve ever heard???
This song took me a while to get to after obsessively listening to shedontknowbutsheknows, disco tits (this song is Jan driving through Boston windows down and I’m wine drunk), etc.
POINTS OF FOCUS:
2:02 - SHE TAKES IT vocally I scream every time
3:11 - bridge into guitar solo that makes me ascend

on the cusp of it’s 30th birthday, i feel the need to talk about post. bjork was always so ahead of her time, truly. post was so… perfect. it is truly one of my favorite albums of all time— army of me is one of my favorite album openers of all time, and i think it establishes a perfect direction for post. bjork has the “weird girl” voice and singing style with the backing tracks of a massive attack or portishead song, a sort of saccharine-sweet sexy trip-hop 90s goodness. (although, the orchestral backing of you’ve been flirting again and it’s oh so quiet are VERY kate.) in my brain, bjork and kate have always been two sides of the same coin— the proto lorde and charli

Like a dear friend . I miss how when I would smoke a cigarette it would settle into my hair , blanketing a preexisting layer of perfume. I love the way smoke seeps into the fabric of my car, my clothes, even into my skin. Smells like my parents, my grandparents. Our old house. Dads gold Lincoln towncar that we got shot at in. And last time I saw one of those, I was picking dad up from jail, and its license plate read TRULOVE.

Loneliness prevails! I would much rather live purely in solitude for ever and ever than waste another precious second in the presence of someone who has little skin in the game of knowing me or seeing me. Hearing me! I wonder why you keep me around if all your hearts desire is to hear the sound of your own voice.
It makes no difference if it’s me or anyone for that matter.
For all you know or even care I am merely an ottoman for you to rest your feet on, or a coffee table meant simply to pedestal your various notebook scrawlings and half-read books. I am a file cabinet. I have it here, dated, what you Thought and what you felt about work, or about your friends. ask me, I have it all.
And I loved it. I loved knowing you. I wanted to. I investigated and interrogated. I poured over it all with great curiosity, praying for all my red threads to weave a tapestry of you.
but I can’t remember the last time you asked me something about myself. When the opportunity arises, and god forbid, I Take it, you can barely hold your breath. Its like a shark sensing blood. You just can’t wait to talk talk talk talk talk.
But hey, it’s your life, and baby, I’m just living in it.
