Björk - Medúlla Survivor, Round 13 - FINAL

[Vindrag]

It is darkening & brightening - in my mind when I listen to Vökuro. A pack of wolves catch their prey even today. It's a final. The end of the beginning which ended in its beginning. I can not feel ashamed for the the crying lullaby's of wolves does not fear any child.. Vökuro is a song that I feel very personal about in my relationship with Bjök, because I can translate parts of the texts. The song rocks me towards her embrace, or perhaps more towards the dark and unknowns embrace. Companionship. It's an icy, cracking, anxious, lonely and nomadic song. It conveys pride and Nordic mythological images are swishing around in my head. Animals, lots of animals. Jag ryser av den svarta omfamningen.

[Chun]

Vindrag, thank you for stopping by! Great to have you in this as well.

Vökuro is save in round 1.

[RaFanatic]

Yaaay! You're here, pal So happy you saved Vokuro, such a great track!

[Lemo]

[Chun]

^ Yes! And there are still 3-4 hours left until I start round 1. If someone posts another review we can move on to round 2 already.

[Chun]

Oh I totally forgot that after there came so many reviews! I'm still at work now, I'll do it later this evening.

[Serby]

I'm excited!

No Start with Post instead

[Chun]

Öll birtan I like the combination of repetitive rhythmic voices by Björk and screaming by Björk more than the combination of repetitive rhythmic voices by Björk that don't start at the beginning and softly singing Björk. That's why I chose to review this and not Miðvikudags. Well, they are both rather interludes than full tracks, and are clearly the weakest two tracks of the album.

[Chun]

[ThomyX]

Yeah, I guess we only have Miðvikudags. Sad, 'cause I think it's a nice track.

[RaFanatic]

Miðvikudags

Sort the remaining 13 tracks into these categories:

best 5 = choose 5 tracks
tracks gain 2 points each

middle 4 = choose 4 tracks
tracks gain 1 point each

bottom 4 = chose 4 tracks
tracks gain 0 points each

In addition, you may curse one track (causing the cursed track to gain -1 point) by placing a * next to it. You may not edit your post, use the preview function to make sure you got it right. The track with the least points goes. The top 4 are save in round 3 unless they are cursed.
Maybe the reviews on page one help your decision.

I'm confused Did you made a mistake or i'm just stupid? We need to put 13 tracks in three categories, in two categories we have to put 4 songs and in one 3. Which is 11 overall... What should i do with other two?

[Vindrag]

1. Sonnets/Unrealities XI
2. Vökuro
3. Desired Constellation
