Free Music Notes for Selmasongs: Dancer In The Dark (2000 Film)
Free Music Review: Bjork showcases her genius yet again!!
Hit: 5 Stars
I was the first in line on the day this album came out, being a devoted obsessed fan. And it was more than worth the wait. This album just shows another of Bjork's many talented faces. Keep in mind that this is not really a "Bjork" album but rather a "Selma" album as the the album title explains. The music is extremely different from her previous ones, being more showtune-like. But the powerhouse tracks like "New World", "In the Musicals", and the duet with Thom Yorke of Radiohead "I've Seen It All", made me cry, and they will probably do the same for you too. An AMAZING album to say the least.Free Music Review: Selmasongs is amazing!
Hit: 5 Stars
Bjork, a musical genius. All of her albums are excellent. From "Debut" to "Homogenic", yet "Selmasongs" tops them all. When I heard that her new album was coming out, i quickly bought it and immediatley fell in love with it. I had it for about a month before i saw "Dancer in the Dark". After I saw the amazing, breathtaking movie, even though I knew all the songs by heart, I felt as if i had bought an entirely new cd when i listened to after the movie. The cd meant so much more to me, and made so much more sense. So, go out and buy this cd and go see "Dancer in the Dark"!Free Music Review: From Dancer In The Dark

"I've Seen It All" is very inspirational, if you saw "Dancer In The Dark" you can almost see Bjork-Selma Jeskova tilting her head sideways and saying "What is there to see?". "107 Steps" never made any sense to me until AFTER I saw the movie, I just thought it was fun, then when I saw the movie it brought tears to my eyes. "Cvalda's Song" is touching, too, even if you didn't see the movie. As you listen to this Soundtrack you'll hear Bjork's innocent "I Only Did What I Had To Do", though it is not worded that way. This CD is based on the movie, but is different with the words. Another Bjork sensation. Buy this one.Free Music Review: Absolutely breathtaking
Hit: 5 Stars
I've followed BJork's career since here "Debut" album, and have yet to find an album by her as beautiful as this one. My top pics from the album:
-"Overture" and "New World" (which builds on the same musical theme as the first one, but with built-in lyrics) - there are no words to describ the beauty of these two tracks... I can picture myself transported to the most beautiful landscapes on Earth when listening to them.
-"I've seen it all" sounds so much like a Peter Gabriel tune...
-"Smith and Wesson" is a good-old BJork as it gets in this album.
Free Music Review: brilliant - moving
Hit: 5 Stars
This soundtrack tells the story and takes you back into the film. It is very moving and Bjork is BRILLIANT (even more so than usual). This is really unlike any of her other works. Especially the track "scatterheart". The music commands your attention. I would compare this cd to the emotional equivalent of listening to This Mortal Coil - Blood and/or the Edward Scissorhands Soundtrack. But at the same time it is completely different. (?!) If you enjoy either of those, and you enjoy Bjork, you cannot lose with this cd. It is a bit short, but WORTH EVERY CENT! You can always put it on repeat.
