Debut

I just started... I am nervous. I mean, it's just not my sound. I will say, \"Big Time Sensuality\" has that 90s disco vibe that slaps. But, I would be okay (and I know Jonah would, too), if I didn't hear Bjork for a long while.

Tolle Stimme, aber die Art und Weise, wie sie benutzt wird, kommt bei mir nicht an. Irgendwas mit Katzen und Jammern. Schade!

Definitely get the artistic value and futurism of this album, but it does not land for me as a listener probably due to my personal genre tastes. Lots of avant-garde house music fusing a variety of genres to create a new sound. The album seems like I'm listening to Bjork experiment in her studio and transitioning from idea to idea until something clicks. The journey is worth the listen even if the music doesn't speak to you personally. Stand-Outs: Like Someone in Love (of course, it's a Jazz standard with a harp rendition, pretty cool), Violently Happy

It's got variety but none of it's good.

not my vibe at all rip

Björing

No puedo con su voz lo siento

Nah sorry but wtf

Most of the time, when I don’t like a piece of music, I can see what other people do—it’s just that it isn’t effective on me personally. This album is one of those rare albums where I don’t understand at all, and simply assume that people who like it must be smarter than me to see something that I don’t. Boring, odd without being compelling, overstays its welcome. Rating: 1.5

I just am not the audience for bjork it's just not my cup of tea and never had been and won't be, it was just not good!

Wow I hated this. Would leave the room if it was playing.

No está mal

Human Behaviour was on the radio when I was a junior in Hs. I thought it wasn’t great then and it hasn’t gotten any better. She whines through the entire album. How does this shit make the list?

insufferable, someone please shoot me in the face with a gun

Merde

SHUT THE FUCK UP

i hate bjork

I did not like this

👎

Friends don't make friends listen to Bjork. I am not a fan of Bjork and listening to this is like my version of hell.

Trash

Her voice is terrible, and the music is just noise to me.

Songs are either incredibly dated or their beat sounds like a Crash Bandicoot level. First album for this I had to stop partway through.

I can say that its good but I just dont like it, not my style of music, only really like, feel like I could only listen to Venus as a boy

Love experimental albums! Not this one though, dropped on the second song

Not a fan. Appears very raw and noisy

just not my shi

Yeaaa,, nahhhhh

Minder geschreeuw dan verwacht.. 1 ster.

Seriously?????

Çok şaapamadım ya bu hafif kafamız güzel ama yavaş şarkı vibes sevmiyorum pek… vokal de glb belki değil di tek

Nope

🤮 This album is what was “in the box”

😏

Eh

an interesting one

Ik snap echt niet wat iedereen zo leuk vindt aan Björk. Ik vind het verschrikkelijk. Haar stem jeukt in m'n oor. Ik vind het irritant. DNF

What the fuck

Sere mi se od Bjork, neslušljivo. Ne razumijem ljude koji ju vole. 1/5, 1/10

A couple bright spots musically but it's a no for me for the voice and lyrics. Listened before? N Saved tracks? N Favorite tracks? None ⭐ Did not like it

Meh

A little too abstract and out there for me.

2/10

Pole mulle

NO.

Struggled listening to this one. Singing was annoying and music was just nonsense thumpy stuff.

i do not like bjork

Can’t stand Bjork. Never got the hype, never will. Terrible record, next.

That’s a no for me.

je n'arrive pas à aimer björk

Awful.

Boooo!

Experimental Björk music is the only way to describe this. Her voice is lovely but the music doesn't quite fit it in some songs. Definitely not my cup of tea. 1/10

hated it

Annoying songs

I was very scared to listen to this. Yep, Bjork scared me. It was not as scary as I thought, nor a weird. It's odd, to be sure and I don't want to listen to it anymore but not scary.

I wish I was sophisticated enough to understand why this is a top album at all.

Album alternated between songs I thought were alright to ones that got on my tits. Listening on the train probably aggravated by rating

Don't like this playlist that much 1 star

I've been dreading the day I have to listen to a Bjork album. It has finally arrived. Let me preface: She seems like a nice person, she makes music where she looks like she is having a ton of fun. This fucking sucks, its so bad. It's like a middle schooler stole some redbulls from their parents fridge and made an album by themselves in the garage with instruments they were completely unfamiliar with. I almost DNF'd, but I stayed with it, out of respect. Best Song: N/A Rating: 1/10 Stars: 1/5

Definitiv unique, hat mich aber absolut kalt gelassen und ich konnte nicht drumherum, einiges zu überspringen. Kam mir oft einfach nervig und einfach wie irgendein aufgenommener Lärm vor. 1 – Konnte ich gar nichts mit anfangen 😬 Hat mich nicht angesprochen, kein Zugang gefunden – weder musikalisch noch emotional. Eher Qual als Genuss.

She's saying the same words over and over and over and over. Each song had the same qualities, the same raspy voice. I did not like this album.

Nope, too out there for me. I like some avant garde stuff, but Björk gives me a headache

Not for me

I really wanted to like this album but while it has many styles I found it wasn't resonating with me at all.

Too avant garde for me

Out of Bobcat or Bjork, this is definitely Bjork

When this album ended, I said, "Oh thank God." out loud. This was a slog for me. It's not the kind of vibe that I look for in anything. It's wispy and laissez-faire in a way that just feels so dead. The music is upbeat and as the songs would start, I'd be bopping along, then the singing started and I just kept checking how long the song had left. Not the worst thing I've ever heard, but still a one for me.

I hate Bjork

Hsks

Zuhause, Heidenheim, Deutschland. Furchtbarer Müll…

Honestly, I thought I'd like it more. It totally didn't get to me. Not a single song caught me. I think I was open, trying to like it, but just didn't happen. It's a bummer, such an iconic album and album cover. I guess it isn't for me.

Not that good!

Who and what the fuck is a Bjork? As if you couldn't tell from the music, she grew up on a commune.

not my jam at all, even annoying at times

What a unique artist back then and now. At first I’m captured by her voice and great singing, but then I start to question her voice and style. It’s as if she recorded her vocal performance for half the album or more with no music written and afterwards they wrote music to underlay what she already sang. There’s a disturbing disconnect between the rhythm being played and what she is singing over it. It kinda makes me sick to my stomach honestly. She lags behind the beat so much and I find it really grating. She is a talented singer for sure, but her style grew stale for me after 3-4 songs. Shes a one trick pony and all of her music sounds the same.

I have never liked Bjorks voice sadly. I like quite a few Icelandic artists but she’s not my vibe.

I understand that Bjork is popular for some reason but her voice annoyed me to no end and the music didn’t vibe with me either. I’m not sure how people sit down and listen to this and enjoy it.

I hate this album, tried listening it a few times and just stopped after a few songs. Annoying droning vocals, frustrating drums and uninteresting lyrics.

for someone just not me 2/5

weird

Lowkey hate the first song, it sounds like she's singing completely out of tune. In fact, the only song I tolerate on this entire album is "Venus as a Boy". I honestly don't think I've hated an album so much before but I'm never going to listen to this again. 0 stars

Not for me. Don't like electtronic

Not sure what this was but it’s not for me

2/10

completely not my thing, but it's okay ig...

I hate this.

The music starts. Björk comes in. She’s in a completely different key. Great. It’s another dissonant album. Although less whale-like than her later album, the style of singing in her debut album sets the tone for the whiny sound her music takes. Not for me.

Wow I am not a Bjorn fan. This is like Alanis Morisette fan fiction. Boo

Not a fan

Damit kann ich nichts anfangen. Die Stimme nervt mich einfach nur.

this is wank

The singles are catchy and Björk has some voice, but I found this generally fairly bland. It feels like she is holding back.

Probably only popular because of her mysterious Icelandic elven allure.

God this was a hard listen... The beats are fun and then Björk starts to sing..."There's More to Life Than This" was fine except for that weird part in the middle...wtf was that. This was tough. "Crying" also had some solid beats. "Aeroplane" was actually horrible and why was "The Anchor Song" included? Fuckin terrible. I was waiting for this album to end. I hate rating albums so low since "Dub Housing" but there was literally not a single song here that I added or marked to listen to again... I think "Violently Happy" was my "favorite" song? The beat was cool and the vocals weren't horrible. What was that intro tho?

This gave me a better understanding of one of the characters in the show Sense8. Not my groove though.

Stressful. Not for me at all.

Bjork appeals to someone, and I have heard enough to know that I am not that someone. Just a little too quirky and out there for my tastes. That said I know she has had a profound influence on a lot of indie and electronic groups. But, I just can't seem to get into her music.

this shit weak af gng

Not my type.

Absolutely not.

Just no

Not my style. 1/10

Just not for me

Not my vibe

Too Avant Gard for me.

Not a fan, just noise and annoying singing

This was not my cup of tea. There were a couple songs that I really enjoyed, where the production felt like a clear precursor to what is now EDM, and her voice layered smoothly on top of it while maintaining a certain sharpness. Through the rest of the album, the production seemed disjointed at best, lacking melody and not finding pleasant rhythms. The vocal sharpness that gave necessary punch to the few enjoyable tracks was grating elsewhere. 2 / 10

It's so late 80s/early 90s sounding. It's so jangly. Not a fan. I couldn't say I enjoyed one song.

Not a fan

i'm sorry but I don't get it, as many times as I ried listening to her music

Not for me.

Not a fan it just went over my head and it was not poppy enough for me but that is fine for some people just not me.

Not good then, worse now.

I like the part where it sounds like she corners you at a party and starts speaking tongues. There's absolutely no question what decade this album came from. It sounds like the music at a rave in a Sci-Fi movie. Like a classy rave for the elites in society. I really enjoyed the first track but they're all basically the same. I actually really like her voice.

Please never again shocking

i like her taste in samples, for the most part, but really dislike literally every other part.

This is like the third album i heard (this one being more acceptable than the others) This feels like if that eccentric colleague who say that they are a great singer and when you hear it you internally go "for the love of god make her stop" got a music carrier. sometimes you hear her voice clear to then jump to a shrieking dissonant note,then to a monotone and finally to a random screaming note. I don't get Björk. it feels like it's one of those artist that live of the "You just aren't an art critic, like me"-people. To me this just sounds like "Weird for Weird's sake". Instrumentations are okey to pretty decent just drop the vocals and it would be fine.

Did not listen

Electronica-pop overlaid with lyrics.

Not a Bjork fan. That has remained unchanged!

How did this get on the list

Well I'm glad I never have to hear that again. Painful. I have no idea how this passes as music. It's not artistic, it's just not.

Never been a fan and this hasn’t converted me. I don’t get her popularity.

Baby babble nonsense.

Felt like an 80’s disco record

I really dislike bjork

This album was not very good, I’m not sure how it has such high ratings

1.5

Human Behavior - I like the instrumentals, but the way she sings it... I just can't stand it. It doesn't fit AT ALL Crying - it's better bc of the outro, but no lyrical content and forgettable. The instrumentals are okay. I don't like how she sings it. It's so unpredictable and off beat. Venus As A Boy - Doesn't stand out for me. I hate the glass falling sound, but I like the violins There's More To Life Than This - I have never heard a song like this. It's kinda fun Like Someone In Love - So boring. Big Time Sensuality - I love the beat, but she ruins it. It's just like she tried to sing this all in one take wihtout hearing it back to see if it actually sounded good. One Day - this is alright. Stands out for me. Aeroplane - her voice gets me so mad. She's singing in cursive and decides to scream at the most random moments. Come To Me - I like this, cuz her voice sounds nice on this song. it feels a bit like a fairytale Violently Happy - I loved when the beat came in. It's a little bit boring, but I like it. The Anchor Song - boring, atleast her vocals were a little bit better. Overal thought: Such a shame that you have such nice beats and instrumentals and that you sing over them so badly. Not for me. It's funny that I said on the album 'the score' that they could sing with a bit more emotion. This is the exact opposite: please sing with a little LESS emotion. Debating If I should give this a 1 or 2, because towards the end there were a couple songs that I didn't find terrible, but I think I'm staying at a 1 for now. Ranking: 1/5

Couldn’t finish it….

Dumb

Not my thing

Unique voice, and music. Not my genre.

I know, I know... she's cutting edge. Her own sound. Trendsetter, feminist, a swan wearing visionary. But, also ear-bleeding vocal dissonance and random melodies that make my brain hurt. Not today, Björk. Not today.

Hate the techno

etwas zu viel Harfe und weird

Nah

I just don't think she has a very good voice. The music was nice, but her voice is weak and unremarkable.

Holy shit a 5th Bjõrk?! The music is garbage. Stay away. Burn it down. It is definitely a 90s album but not a good one. It is better than some of her other albums that made the list, but that's about it. No need to listen.

Awful Like somebody was swinging a cat by its tail

I absolutely love her sweater. Unfortunately we're rating her music :(

I do not like this at all. I like the album cover though. She looks like a girl version of Michael Jackson.

It doesn't suck as much as Medulla. But god it still sucks.

I enjoyed the instruments, but her voice is like listening to someone else's kid incessantly whining.

Fand ich einfach nur exzentrisch und anstrengend anzuhören

This has to be the last one right?

Looks and sounds like a goth demon. Violently Happy was a great track because that is how I felt when the album was almost done.

Human behavior ist good. The Rest ist ok

Wow. Just, wow. A very, very difficult listen and for almost no reward. Sheeeeeite.

Nope

Not for me

Nope.

Didn’t want to finish after the first song 1/55 Has some good parts but not enough to change my opinion

Not enough edibles in the world to make this album good

Just boring mostly. Not feeling it at all

Don’t enjoy this, not my cup of tea, Bjork is an acquired taste and unfortunately not for me. If i had to pick 2 songs Play Dead and Come to me would be the best on that album.

I learnt Erin is not a Bjork fan

Thank God that's over! What a dumpster fire of musical styles and genres that album was. Bjork can't maintain one specific genre throughout the entirety of this album. She goes from jazz to house to electro pop to art pop, and usually switches multiple times per song. You just start to settle in for a pleasing listen to a song and BAM... You're headed off in a completely different direction. The one thing that was good about this album is Bjork's voice, but most of the time I have no fucking idea what she's even saying. Overall, this album was a train wreck. I struggled to get through the album. The house/electronica numbers were leaps and bounds better than anything else on the album. That is because at least those songs had a pulse. For fuck sakes, call this album dead in the water and move on. I won't be listening again, and I'm not looking forward to the other album Bjork has on this generator. Personally, I feel it a disservice that she gets 2 albums on this generator, and an absolute legend such as Harry Belafonte gets none. This generator is definately skewed towards bullshit European bands that no one cares about. Favourite songs: Play Dead... I guess?!? Least favourite songs: Like Someone In Love, Human Behaviour... And the rest of the album... What garbage 1/5

Not for me

Not a fan of Bjork, wasnt that bad per se just not my taste

Crying // Like Someone In Love // 1.5/5

So the first two songs I actually liked and I actually thought maybe a 2 star or even 3 stars at that point, but then the Bjorkinish arose and just kept spiraling out of control, couple that with lame ass electronic music that sounds like it was composed on a Commodore 64. For the love of god please be the last of her albums!

God, please, no more Bjork. Her voice is the musical equivalent of a vocal fry. It's so unlistenable that I seriously, at times, question my sanity as to why ANYONE likes her. Like, can you not hear how god awful her singing is. Doesn't it pierce your skull to the point that you want to gouge your ears out because the blood dripping from your ears would be a more pleasant experience than having to listen to her alternate between warbling and shrieking? Please tell me this is the last Bjork album on the list.

Only Bjork album I liked was Volta. I can’t really stomach a full bjork album lol. This a no for me.

No puedo con ella(PSP)

Why this list has so much Bjork is Bjeyond me.

Whining dog shit.

I'm sorry man, I just don't get it

Still not for me.

Oh boy

Not my jam at all! Very strange.

Just not my cup of tea…

No la soporto.

I just can't do Björk. I do not get how this album has a 3.42 star global rating. I hate all things electronica and Dimery's fascination with the genre constantly frustrates me. Her voice just annoys me and it isn't even bolstered by that impactful of lyrics. The shrieking just makes me want to turn it off the entire time. The vocals are horrendous and the music is just as mediocre barring a couple small shining moments. This just fits what I need for an album to get a 1 star rating. I wanted to turn it off the entire time. I was tempted to bump it up to a 2 for the importance, but I just can't betray the pain my ears went through for the last 48 and a half minutes.

Sometimes pretty cool and other times sounds like a 5-years old was giving an old casio synthesizer to do some random stuff on, was really hoping it would finish after the first song but unfortunately got more songs after that

- Gewöhnungsbedürftig - Instrumental irgendwie experimentell - Gesang sehr homogen - Der Singsang eher nervig - Echt nicht meins

I've never understood the Björk thing. I still don't. This record took a long time to get through.

Nope

Niby cos nowego, ale jednak jedno wielkie deja vu, bo jest to kolejny popowo taneczny krazek z lat 90, tym razem roznica jest jego egzotycznosc, bo jak nazwa wskazuje Debut jest pierwszym studyjnym krazkiem w dyskografii pani Björk, ktorej pseudonim wskazuje na egzotyczne pochodzenie, w tym przypadku chodzi o islandie, plyta z 93 jest wszystkim czym moze byc debiutancki material mlodej artystki chcacej zawojowac swiat swoja muzyka, wiec utwory przepelnione szczesciem i wylewajaca sie z niej miloscia, zroznicowane od akustycznych ballad jak like someone in love po ubga bugowe rytmy parkietowe jak na big time sensuality, dodatkowo jest to az 48 minut rozwleczone do granic mozliwosci przez 10 sesyjnych muzykow bioracych udzial w nagraniach, sama pani Björk jest zlistowana jako operatorka klawiszowo synthowa no i wokalistka, a rowniez jako wrajterka lub ko wrajterka liryczna, ale cos tak mialkiego i nie przekazujacego nic poza tym, ze ktos planowal sprzedac dobrze nowa egzotyczna gwiazde w europie, czy raczej w jukeju, bo tamten rynek muzyczny byl docelowym targetem, no i z tamtych stron ludzie biora udzial w nagraniach, technicznie i muzycznie, na plejke nie mam nic, bo material wypala uszy swoja nijakoscia, spiewane przez kogos, ale nie da sie uslyszec kogo

Didn't care for it. Way to screechy for me.

vilket jävla mög

Bjork Schmork

Not for me

First song was really good - after that it feels like boring dance music

Did not really get this album.

This is my third bjork album now and I am getting really tired of hearing them. I have no idea why they are on this list once, let alone three of them. Hopefully there's not a fourth. No recognized songs

I don't think so. Sorry Bjork.

Bjork was weird.

I did not dig it at all

Not for me.

Wasn’t my vibe.

Meh

Not a huge fan. One or two songs I could listen to, but mostly too discordant and screechy for my taste.

Big Time Sensuality is a banger Venus as a boy is alright Come To Me is not bad The rest kinda sucks, sorry Bjork

A little too obscure for me

Infumable. No entiendo la fama de esta chica. Un tostón de aquí te espero.

Je voulais améliorer mes connaissances musicales, mais cet album ne manquait clairement pas à ma culture. C'est juste pas écoutable! Mon hit: Le bouton skip

Abstract avant-guard meets “Ross’s Sound” from Friends.

There's more life than this beautifully sums up this album which is a discordant mess. Terrible voice. Weird. 1 star. Fucking terrible album

Didn’t do much for me.

Me likey

Boo
