"Human behaviour", by Björk


If you ever get close to a human

and human behaviour

be ready to get confused



there's definitely no logic

to human behaviour

but yet so irresistible



there is no map

to human behaviour


they're terribly moody

then all of a sudden turn happy

but, oh, to get involved in the exchange

of human emotions is ever so satisfying



there's no map and

a compass

wouldn't help at all



human behaviour

Diary of a Nowadays Man

6.00 a.m. I woke up with last night´s hangover. After all, three hours of sleep are not enough to cure it!!!
As I was already so late I just skipped the breakfast. It´s not that important at all, right?
In a hurry there I went to roar off with my car, prepared (or not) for two hours of unbearable traffic.

8.30 a.m. Another boring day sitting in chair, in front of a computer... How interesting! That´s right, that´s what I do all day long in my job.

1.00 p.m. Lunch time!! I left, relieved, my office to go straight to the restaurant just after the corner. The fast-food restaurant! I just love those hamburgers, oh, and that "Extra Cheeseburger", with all those sauces and grease... Delicious!!!
Looking at the mirror I think for a second I may be becoming a bit fat... But well, the mirror is so far and it looks just like it´s distorted. And anyway we only live once, right?
And please... next time I have to ask the waiter to change the TV channel. I don´t want to look at those poor hungry people in the news while I´m eating...

2.30 p.m. Return back to another exciting afternoon at the office. Just hope not to fall asleep until the end of the day.

6.00 p.m. Finally I broke the record! I almost fell asleep only once.

8.00 p.m. I arrived home... Home sweet home. After two exhausting hours I made it. Never realized how dark the air was in my way back home...
What I really wanted now was to return to my unfinished sleep, but no way. There´s this date with my work fellows.

10.00 p.m. After eating some old sandwich I found in the back of the refrigerator, I lead back into another big time drinking party. Hopefully I won´t get drunk...

(Un)Blue Planet

Is there any possibily for us to still call our planet "The Blue Planet"?
We sail in a sea more and more full of pollution, hunger, waterless, wars and mistrust, where, by each beat of our heart that goes on, there´s this big wave that cover us with its devastation, leading us to the bottom from which there will be no recover.
Our only salvation are the sea patrols that do everything possible to control these mistakes we make without any pity, just like a bad son who betrays his Mother, after all She did to provide life. They sail in dreams of a world to which we could still call Blue, dreams that give them strength to fight this harsh war. Their number is decreasing, though... And all we are left to do is sink in this dark sea...
But after all there still is HOPE. To put an end to the big wave that is getting bigger and bigger we all must get together in order to make Earth a peaceful and calm sea, where we may cross with our hands the water ondulation, full of hope and courage.

Welcome
