EXTRA VERSE
It came about
through happenstance
that I happened to be hap-happy
you’re just a bonus to that
SONG INFO
“The first unhappy song I wrote was ‘Possibly Maybe.’ That was very hard for me. Usually I write all the time, but that was like nothing happened for months. Then the song came out. I was ashamed writing a song that was not giving hope.”
Possibly Maybe is written by Björk, Nellee Hooper & Marius De Vries. It was produced by Björk and her longtime collaborator Nellee Hooper and released in 1995 on her second album, Post. When it was time to make a video for the single, she contacted ‘Big Time Sensuality’-director Stéphane Sednaoui, who once again created stunning visuals, this time of Björk bathing in milk and eating both watermelon and neonglowing dust!
The extra verse was included in some live performances.

"i heard dj shadow - mutual slump first" Same here, although I wouldn't say it ruined it for me. They're very, very different tracks. Both good though.

I love the end of this song where she says " I suck my tongue in rememberance of you." The implications of that statement are explosive...one of my fav. Bjork tunes.

I dig the slow beat in this song...and the words are all too familiar. Wanting something so bad and then letting all the doubt sink in...indecision. Possibly my favorite Bjork song.
