My Spine by Björk

“I like Vulnicura, but I suppose that we will never have this Bjork again. I can't overestimate how much this song is inside me as a person - I've used most of the lines from the song in my writing at some point. She's joyfully sexual in this song, free, playful, incapable of seeing anything as a mistake. It's so silly it's serious. Bjork's excited by all the boys, all the possibilities - all of Post is - and that enthusiasm helped carry me through some boringly dark and lonely stuff. Because of this, I'll always love Bjork beyond fandom. She feels closer than that. She feels like the parts of me I can admire. The best pop music feels like a message in a bottle, sent exclusively from singer to you. "My Spine" is that curled up note, uncorked and unwrapped. I can still almost hear its secret message to me: "Surprise! If you can hear and love this music, you are somebody's gift, too!"”
