Biography

Björk's seventh full-length album Biophilia, a multi-media project pairing 10 songs with corresponding iPad Apps, is her most conceptually complex. Track titles read like captions in a textbook -- "Moon," "Thunderbolt," "Virus," the first single "Crystalline" -- but each piece is filtered through Björk's personal connection to, and ...

5.0 out of 5 stars the queen of singles gives us the pleasure! 19 Aug 2004
Format:Audio CD
Well..

Hello everyone. I am a very big music fan and I hear every thing from Tool to Whitney Houston to Stina Nordenstam. and Bjork is somewhere between them all..
I've always considared bjork has someone very special and close to my heart. She helps me understand thing in other ways and it makes me a better person in lots of aspects..
There's nothing else for me to add about how amazing and magical she is as a preformer and has an artist.. But she is also the queen of singles and kinds of editions too all of her records.
It is hard to be her fan. you have to collect hundreds of records (only bachalorette single has around 20 editions world wide..)
But it is fun to collect them all..

This single is among her best. It includes one of bjork's experimental beats and it is even called in its demo name : "my snare" (..also known has "Nature Is Anccient", and to be found on the third experimental "beats" CD of Family Tree..)

Extreemly recomanded my friends!

Anyways, it is not that expensive like "Family Tree" and it is also include rare b-side of her's : "scary"

ENJOY

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb mixes of a superb song - and a good b-side! 10 Jun 2000
By "sonyrz55" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
This song was Björk second Homogenic single, and, in my opinion one of her best works ever. The single include six tracks, five Bachelorette mixes and a fab. b-side called My Snare (also known as Nature Is Ancient from the Japanese Homogenic, which also can be ordered from Amazon.

The mixes are:

Bachelorette (Radio Edit) Bachelorette (Mark Bell "Blue" Remix) Bachelorette (Mark Bell "Optimism" Remix) Bachelorette (Mark Bell "Zip" Remix) Bachelorette (Grooverider "Jeep" Remix)

The different mixes captures different feelings of this song, the jungle style jeep mix and the zip mix are funky, the RZA mix more ambient, while the blue mix make you want to dance. My personal favourite is the optimistic mix, which really is hard to descibe. Buy this CD and listen for youself. This is well spent money - 5 stars, but again: this is a Björk CD!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of her best singles 20 Jun 2001
By "castlevista" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
First off: this is one of the best singles by any artist, and even Bjork. Usually singles should only be bought by die-hard fans who need to have the B-sides, but this is a must buy for even the casual Bjork listener. The first song, the radio edit of 'Bachelorette', is absolutely stunning. It stands out among the rest of the 'Homogenic' singles because it's so uplifting, whereas the album as a whole is pretty dark. 'My Snare' has a great beat, and 'Scary' is like something out of a musical. Both great songs. The final song, a different version of 'Bachelorette' really brings out the power of the strings because it doesn't feature the piano part. Overall, this is a MUST have.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nature is Ancient 17 Aug 2004
By J. Holmes - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
More great Bjork songs.

"My Snare" kind of has the same feeling as the LFO remix of "Possibly Maybe" from the "Telegram" album. although alot more upbeat and less dark.

"Scary" is a truly magikal song. it has no beats but only a harpsichord and some gentle electronic bleeps and blurps going on in the background. the song kind of just skips along in a gleeful way and will certainly stick in your head.

the remix of "Bachelorette" here is really good and adds alot of dramatic and cinematic touches to the (already dramatic and cinematic) original.

a quality batch of music.
