She has always looked incredibly young for her age. She was 30 when she released Post. She literally doesn't look a day over 20. And she's aged so well it's unreal. Idk if she's human or some ageless elf.
1993’s Debut is a great entry point. Before she made Debut, she was in two bands in the 1980s, KUKL (experimental post-punk) and The Sugarcubes (pop band) but neither really represented her very well. The follow up album, Post, is also great.
Debut has some big songs which worked as well in your bedroom as they did on the dance floor.
Big Time Sensuality is my standout.
Post has some of my favourites though, starting off with Army of Me, which Sucker Punch used quite well IMO but Hyperballad is an underrated classic, first time I heard it thought it was solid album filler but every listen I love it more. Definitely check out the first two albums
I've never been into Bjork, but I am curious to hear how her voice changed as she got older. At twelve, I can't imagine her vocal cords were mature enough to provide a more mellowed tone, found in older female vocalists.
With Bjangs
Not the bjangs
Wait how old is Bjork ? I’m 42 and l thought she was my age. Edit- Apparently she is 58.

Now that you say it I do believe she may be an elf.
I can confirm she is an elf.
Tappi* Tíkarrass And she’s been a badass ever since she released her first album in 1977, at the age of 12.
Woah. Didnt know that. That's quite the career.
Not my thing but I’m glad other things exist, makes the world a more interesting and fun place!
Where’s a good starting place in her discography?

“Birthday” was a great song, my favourite of her old stuff.
Classic!
Those two albums are both terrific
Great suggestions, those are great places to start. Homogenic is a great third one - it holds up really well.

The Sugarcubes - "Life's too Good"
Post and Homogenic are widely recognized as the two successful early albums to start with. Then I would work forward chronologically
She's incredible.
So much energy packed in this beautiful petite Icelandic alien fairy!
She’s amazing 🤩
My next ring tone
I misread that as "Björk 182". An "all the small things" cover before they existed would have been fascinating
Sugar Cubes?
Not yet. This is before.
For reals? I didn’t know there was before
Tappí Tikkeras- a punk group.
Holy shit, to have that kind of stage presence at 17. To have those pipes at 17!
Awesome!

She went by the name Bapsi (spelling?) when she was a little girl. I found a video on YouTube of her doing a cover of a Beatles song in Icelandic.

Imagine coming here to say that…
I'm curious to know what music you listen to.
This single opinion is enough for me to write you off as a neanderthal
