About this episode
In 1995, Björk was a phenomenon without a genre, a critically acclaimed singer-songwriter who mixed dance beats with rock attitude and pop flair and became a near-household name without scoring any major hits. In this first episode of our Vintage Almost-Pop Stardom series — a spin on our usual Vintage Pop Stardom, with four episodes this month looking at close-but-not-quite pop stars during their biggest years — Lina Morgan of the Song vs. Song podcast helps us look back at Iceland's greatest musical export during her crossover peak, including her classic 'Post' album, unforgettable videos for "Army of Me" and "It's Oh So Quiet" and even a freelance gig writing for Madonna. 1995 Björk YouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwFs58D1XAMZyxKrrsXZ6643UOa2BnB1b Follow Lina on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/alinaisyou.bsky.social And if you enjoy the pod, please consider donating to the following causes: Transgender Law Center https://transgenderlawcenter.org/ Trans Lifeline https://translifeline.org/ Destination Tomorrow https://secure.givelively.org/donate/destination-tomorrow-inc Gender-Affirming Care Fundraising on GoFundMe https://www.gofundme.com/c/gender-confirmation-surgery-fundraising Also, please consider giving your local congresspeople a call in support of trans rights, with contact information you can find on 5Calls.org .
