They've been giving away free BJORK cds with The Observer (UK Sunday broadsheet) recently...Samplers for her albums etc....
So yeah, she's kinda mainstream but I do adore the way she keeps on the move ,like AFX and unlike most of other mainstream "stars"... she doesn't release the same old shit everytime....plus when it comes to collabs, she rules...
The Funkstorung remix of AIFOL is one of my fave tracks ever....have to be v. careful listening to it on my walkman whilst walking the streets, it makes me do half-assed robot dances :)....

i don't fully understand the 'mainstream' bit. do you mean that she sells a lot of records or gets airplay (in the uk? not here), or that the music she makes is mainstream in character? i think her debut and post albums are definitely on the side of mainstream, but beyond that the label doesn't really make sense.

same here, we got a college station that'll drop some bjork on some rare occasions. i'd really like somebody who thinks bjork is mainstream to define it, not becaues i want to argue it, everyone to their own, but because before i came here i had never considered that she would be considered mainstream and thought it was weird the first time i heard it.

I was using mainstream in the sense that even non-music fans have heard of her...mention AFX to most people and they go "HUH??", but everyone knows who Bjork is....
And that's pretty interesting as her music is definately non-mainstream...

me too. fortunately, the complete presentation has turned up online. it's still in the non-downloadable "incoming" folder of the famous bjork ftp but at least that means it's probably elsewhere too. once again, when i get more space (i have an old hard drive i need to install) i'll get it. there's a little clip of it you can download from bjork.com (check the news archives).

I think these lyrics are wrong:
"Joga"
all the accidents that happen follow the dot confidence makes sense only with you you don't have to speak i feel emotional landscapes they puzzle me
isn't it:
"Joga"
all the accidents that happen following the dot COINCIDENCE makes sense only with you you don't have to speak i feel emotional landscapes they puzzle me
