She always knows when people need stroking
And is attracted to deathbeds and divorcees
I dreamt she cared for my dying grandfather
Lying naked face down on his bed
She insists on total presence
And knows how to get through to the rest of us
She has entered me thousandfold often
And undone knots at my most awkward
Music loves too
She reaches out to orphans and refugees
Embraces them with thermal blankets
Her favorite childhood moments
Were at a hospital for the disabled
I've seen her offer empathy to widows
She attends funerals of strangers
Her strongest memory is feeding children with leprosy
Music heals too
I'm here to defend it

Björk Guðmundsdóttir, nota semplicemente come Björk, è una cantautrice, compositrice, produttrice discografica, attrice e attivista islandese. Considerata una delle artiste più innovative e influenti del panorama musicale contemporaneo, Björk ha conquistato fama internazionale con la sua musica sperimentale che fonde elementi elettronici, jazz, ambient e classica. Nata a Reykjavík nel 1965, inizia la sua carriera musicale all'età di 11 anni con il gruppo punk Tappi Tíkarrass. Nel 1977 forma il gruppo The Sugarcubes, che raggiunge un discreto successo internazionale negli anni '80. Dopo lo scioglimento del gruppo, Björk intraprende una carriera solista nel 1993 con l'album *Debut*, che diventa un successo mondiale. I suoi album successivi, come *Post* (1995), *Homogenic* (1997) e *Vespertine* (2001), consolidano il suo status di artista visionaria e sperimentale. Björk è nota per le sue performance teatrali innovative e la sua estetica unica, caratterizzata da abiti futuristici e un'immagine provocatoria. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi si ricordano *Hyperballad*, *Army of Me*, *Joga* e *Pagan Poetry*.
