Björk/YMMV

• Alternate Character Interpretation: Try to find someone who thinks Björk has an average voice, decent lyrics and an unremarkable fashion style. Go ahead, try.
• Contested Sequel: Some find Volta and to a lesser extent Biophilia to be too "difficult" and/or "self-indulgent". For others this have been the case since Homogenic. And no, attempting to discuss this anywhere is not a good idea.
• Covered Up: Her song "It's Oh So Quiet" is a cover of the less well-known Betty Hutton song, "Blow a Fuse".
• Crazy Awesome: Isn't she the epitome of this trope?
• Creepy Awesome: See Nightmare Fuel below.
• Crowning Music of Awesome: She made an album that's mostly a capella. What have you done?
  • Her epic songs are this. "Hyperballad", "Jóga", "Bachelorette", "I've Seen It All", "Wanderlust" and others are just breathtaking.
  • "Army Of Me" has an entire album dedicated to covers and remixes. People are still hooked on it so long after it got released. Significantly being used for the Sucker Punch Soundtrack for a key scene.
• Everybody Remembers the Stripper: The video for "Pagan Poetry" sticks out in memory because it features rotoscoped scenes of Björk and Matthew Barney having unsimulated sex. The piercings are also hard to forget.
• Heartwarming Moment: "Venus As A Boy"
• Magnum Opus: Homogenic and/or Vespertine. Both are her most critically acclaimed albums.
• Memetic Outfit: Her swan dress.
• Never Live It Down: The swan dress and the 1996 paparazzi incident (further paparazzi beatdowns go unnoticed).
• Nightmare Fuel:
  • "Ancestors". By far her most avant-garde song, it features throat singing that turns into a dog choking for air.
  • "An Echo, A Stain" and "Cover Me" are both extremely spooky.

Feel my breath, on your neck, and your heart will race

don't say no to me, you can't say no to me...

• • "Where Is the Line?" has creepy, stuttering bass vocals that could easily qualify. The music video's also rather dark.
  • The Homogenic cover has been described by one person as "Satan with Mickey Mouse ears."
• Painful Rhyme: In "The Comet Song", Björk rhymes "comet" with "dammit".
• Squick: All the videos from Vespertine as well as this picture. ^{[dead link]}
  • "Pagan Poetry" can be this if you're not used to that type of entertainment with the piercing skin thing.
• Tear Jerker: On the 11th of February 2010, her longtime friend and collaborator Lee Alexander McQueen commits suicide. Bjõrk performs Gloomy Sunday in his memorial. If this isn't enough to make you a teary mess, the performance itself will be.
  • The movie Dancer in the Dark, especially the ending.
  • "I've Seen It All", "Pneumonia", "Unravel", and "Mother Heroic".
  • "Pagan Poetry" should also qualify for a lot of people who don't find it to be High Octane Nightmare Fuel. Or maybe you find it to be both.
  • Joga could fill this too.
  • "Possibly Maybe" is rather depressing as well.
• True Art Is Incomprehensible: Compounding that she's married to the artist who made these films, and they collaborated and starred in another film (she also did the soundtrack).
• Uncanny Valley: The robots in the "All Is Full Of Love" video.
