Bjork - Unravel

I find it hard to pick my favourite Bjork song but this more often than not comes top of the list. It's hard to ignore the wonder that is Hyperballad, Venus As A Boy was my introduction and that will always hold a special place but this performance is breathtaking. Bjork's breathy, yearning vocals are perfectly on display here and the minimal instrumentation allows her to demonstrate what a wonderfully unique talent she has. Damn cute too ;-)

Most indicative of this tracks beauty perhaps is the calibre of artists to cover it. From Adem, through Radiohead to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, it truly is a song for the ages from one of the most forward thinking albums ever released. Mr Yorke even went as far as saying "It's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard". Praise indeed.

So here are a few of my favourite performances of this heartbreaking and enchanting song
