About This Track

“I think I wrote it in my living room in Iceland and sang it into my dictaphone. Later, by accident, we were going through sounds and I found this broken bottle sound. It wasn’t intentional but it sounded great.”

‘Venus As A Boy’ was written by Björk and produced by her long-time collaborator Nellee Hooper. When it became time to turn it into a single & music video, she approached Sophie Muller, a british video director that has done music videos for several big names such as Eurythmics, No Doubt and Blur since the early 80’s.

    I’m totally smitten by the unattainable ideal presented in this song... Misleadingly timid looking pastel-donned neo-goth. Androgynous, versatile, shapeshifting, otherworldly, supple, dark, inappropriate, cerebral. Has a wicked sense of humor that suggests exciting sex. Nonchalantly wears pet iguana on left shoulder (whose forever sombre reptilian expression compliments his owner’s overeager one). Basically Bjork's male counterpart. <3

    When I first heard this, I knew about seven Bjork songs and it was my favourite. After five years (if you live that long), I know more or less all the Bjork songs and it is still my favourite. Magic.

    This one always reminds me of Léon... almost as majestic as the movie itself. [4]

    @KingFahtah: No, it's about a man who sees everything from a beauty point of view.
