the sad thing in highschool, i had some hippy friends that were in a band that used to want to do that a capella noise thing in the middle of the video. they called it a "fuck jam"

so embarrassed

Nice to know that Toonces can still find work.

That's hilarious. It's pretty crazy too (but not as crazy as doing her last album mostly acappella). I wonder who did it? Would Gondry do something that silly and unclever (but in a good way)?

Spike Jonze.

that was cool. the parts with the cat were highly amusing, the parts in the club less so. was that Dokaka in the club though (asian guy, beard kind of thing)? I believe that is the track he did with bjork.

haha, that's so great when she falls over and hurts her head.

xpost - i liked the pub/club stuff more than the cat stuff.

I'm was trying to figure out if all of this was filmed in Iceland or not.. It looks like it.

GREAT video.. things get *too* hokey at the very end, but that cat rules.

― donut christ (donut), Saturday, 22 January 2005 02:45 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm pretty sure it's Iceland. What a weird/great video. The cat in the suit and the yodeling had me lol'ing.

aye that's iceland alright.

― jed_ (jed), Saturday, 22 January 2005 03:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Well, duh, of course it's Iceland. Once you're a male Icelandic who makes above a certain yearly income, you immediately become transformed into a cat. Very unique country.

― donut christ (donut), Saturday, 22 January 2005 03:40 (twenty-one years ago)

no trees. prefab buildings. extremely drunk people.

― jed_ (jed), Saturday, 22 January 2005 03:47 (twenty-one years ago)

That is Dokkaka in the club scene.

AND THE STREETS AREN"T PAVED WITH CHEESE.

― Matt Boch (Matt Boch), Saturday, 22 January 2005 04:31 (twenty-one years ago)

yes to iceland and yes to dokaka. apparently einar orn's in the club sequence as well.

― mark p (Mark P), Saturday, 22 January 2005 04:32 (twenty-one years ago)

dumb. what a stupid video. different doesn't mean good, people.

― wrer, Saturday, 22 January 2005 07:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Bjork has a rad car! Her cat-man has a pretty dorky ride though.

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Saturday, 22 January 2005 08:04 (twenty-one years ago)

I thought I saw Einar!!!

The entire part where she's trashed is outstanding.

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Saturday, 22 January 2005 14:02 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah i just watched this another twice. the drunk part is outstanding and makes me want to try one of those notorious icelandic nights out.

― jed_ (jed), Saturday, 22 January 2005 14:39 (twenty-one years ago)

Actually I was thinking how nice that station wagon looked.

― Magic City (ano ano), Saturday, 22 January 2005 14:44 (twenty-one years ago)

That is definately Iceland. The pub she goes into is called Sirkus and is just off Laugavegur in Reykjavik.

Hah! I so knew what that was before I even clicked it. That seems to be making the rounds again and it makes me so happy.

She was so delightfully strange and gorgeous. I wish she hadn't stopped being childlike but we all lose our innocence at one point of our lives. I guess it would be odd and not in a good way if she still acted naive at 50+
