About This Track

Written by Björk and Thomas Knak.

About the co-writer: “I had to go to Denmark for a year. There was nothing going on. I was literally lying on the beach, looking at the ocean, with a ghetto blaster listening to Thomas Knak/Opiate’s album. I realised he was from Copenhagen. I just called him up.”

“The lyric to ‘Cocoon’ was a whole diary, then I had to edit 90 per cent of it out. It’s very hard to explain, but when I read it and the other person it’s about reads it, we don’t feel abused or anything. I think there’s songs where I’ve been more… scruffy about what I’m expressing. I have a problem with music that’s too indulgent. It’s like ; “Keep your own dirty laundry, please.”

    The part without music when the only thing we hear is Bjork's vocal is really cool.

    maybe her best intimate track to me, the production (the bug-like-scratchy beat) is just awesome. "cosmogony" on the new album isn't bad either, but doesn't to cocoon (or "unravel")
