THE DECADE IN SONGS: 7

7 - HIDDEN PLACE - BJÖRK



ALBUM: "VESPERTINE" - Björk
MY I-CHOONS COUNT: 24
BEST REMIX: no official remixes of the track
KEY LYRICS: "He's the beautifullest
Fragilest
Still strong
Dark and divine
And the littleness of his movements
Hides himself
He invents a charm that makes him invisible
Hides in the air
Can I hide there too?
Hide in the air of him
Seek solace
Sanctuary"

RELEASE DATE: 2001
MYSPACE



Extraordinary mélange of super-talents: Guy Sigsworth, Matmos and Matthew Herbert among others, producing, arranging and programming Björk's finest song of her 2nd and way more experimental decade as a solo artiste. Labyrinthine mosaic of micro-beats, choir chants and truly exceptional melody.
