I hate the histrionism in Bachelorette half of the time. For me Joga is the real jewel in Homogenic, it could be an instrumental song and it would still be brilliant. Probably Bjork's best string arrangements, don't think she'll ever top them.
Have you heard the Polar Prize version with Ane Brun? Obviously Bjork owns the song and noone is able to perform it as she does, but the backing orchestra makes it one of the better performances I've heard of it. Wish Bjork herself was singing it. You can tell she is moved by the rendition, though. It appears that she is crying at the end of it.
