Vespertine
winter feel, muted samples
intimate window
some tracks had been leaked
a shame
It's Not Up To You
was not included
regardless, Bjork shines
"little insects rising up"
she explained her sound
quiet and pensive
finds Bjork truly exposing
myriad of sounds
number one in Spain
Canada, France and Norway
sold well in the States
Vespertine is stark
may challenge the casual
for instance:
Cocoon
repeated listens
reveal something different
for better or worse
it's quite unlikely
we'll find Bjork revisiting
this delicate sound
Bjork's finest moment
Vespertine just might be it
