08. Pagan Poetry (2001) -- 35 points; 4 votes; 2 first-place votes

Ahh... looking at this video as a teenager to see artful breasts... souvenirs souvenirs.
Tomorrow there will be many posts so I just wanna say in advance that when the Venus as a Boy video gets posted, the people who have read the graphic deviant sex-shitfest Story of the Eye (Lord Auch) can look at this innocent kitchen and those eggs in a totally new way. I don't know who made that connection though.

I"m going to be so mad if the "Violently Happy" video places

the last 7 HAVE to be "Human Behavior", "Army of Me", "Big Time Sensuality", "All is Full Of Love", "Bachelorette", and "Who Is It", and "Triumph of a Heart", right????

Like, "Cut to the Feeling" LSFYL mad?

xp I think Wanderlust and Pagan Poetry are two of her greatest videos, and am curious as to which ones people liked better

xp no I could never be that mad at anything ever again

Pagan Poetry was my number 1, just astonishing as a performance and as a piece of visual art

07. Big Time Sensuality (1993) -- 37 points; 5 votes

This however, is not.

I mean, not for nothing was it projected four-stories-tall at MOMA.

I really love this video!

makes me wish I had been there to see the filming of it

Catch a few glimpses here:

love the dgaf style of acting/dancing on the truck with people agape in the streets, released as the video to her first single!

This video is so near and dear to my heart and fills me w such joy

all the debut-era videos are so excellent

Except apparently "Violently Happy," as per Stevie D.

06. Army of Me (1995) -- 42 points; 5 votes; 1 first-place vote

Honestly, I can only think of one Bjork video that does nothing in the slightest for me and that's "Play Dead," obvs.

xp the extreme wide angle (fish eye?) filming lens in Big Time Sensuality really contributes to feeling of joyful exhibitionism, too

big time sensuality video is iconic come on

thrilled the underworld mix won

I had never seen "Army of Me" before last night and was blown away, it def would have been in my top 3 if I'd voted

it’s such a powerful and bizarre video

05. Triumph of the Heart (2005) -- 65 points; 8 votes; 1 first-place vote

😽

04. Hyperballad (1996) -- 78 points; 10 votes; 1 first-place vote

“hyberballad” is a visual perfectly suited toward its song, my favorite thing is the way the camera sways in time to the low bass riff and also hologram björk and also 8-bit avatar björk

it also makes me cry for some reason

oh my god "Who Is It" isnt' going to place is it

oh my god "Who Is It" isnt' going to place is it

never felt any kind of way about this video even though the bell dress rules

the only Bjork videos I have a hard time watching are Hidden Place and Vertebrae by Vertebrae, both are disturbing to me

(although beautiful at the same time)

“where is the line” has a deeply fucked up video

oh, never saw that one!

idk you may want to keep it that way

“mouth mantra” video also basically unwatchable for me

the Human Behavior video filled my kid with such delight, and me once again, seeing it for the first time in twenty years.

"Vertebrae by Vertebrae" doesn't have an official video, does it?

No, that and "Virus" are taken from a video art installation piece.

Oh, you mean the ones on YouTube? They are both fan edits of Andy Thomas Huang's "Solipsist". Bjork saw the original video and asked Huang to collaborate on "Mutual Core".

Given the visual spendor of her video oeuvre I kinda feel Big TIme Sensuality placed for nostalgia and the song itself. Always felt the video was "meh" at best and didn't place on my ballot.

xp

ok, that makes sense

yeah it was the youtube video of Solipsist that I was reacting to
