Sunday Aranciata Rossa and Tunes – 11 January 2026
Bjork – Post
I’m a little behind on posts. I listened to more then I could type at the time last weekend.
Post was the first CD album of my own music that I remember seeking out to buy (excluding the little mermaid soundtrack from when I was like 6). I was 11. I dragged my dad to the CD section of the department store John Martins to buy the fancy Australian tour edition for my birthday. It contained an extra 4-track cd of remixes and alternate versions including Venus As A Boy (Harpsichord) and Hyperballad with the Brodski Quartet. "She's from Iceland Dad!" I exclaimed whilst he looked a tad confused but went along with it anyway. I had been introduced to Bjork by my friends older sister who owned Debut. It’s Oh So Quiet was on every Saturday morning on Rage. I liked the video clip, but I preferred the other tracks. I was in love with this album cover and everything Bjork. I had a giant poster for years until it fell down so much in the hot suburban summers and became a crumpled mess.
This is a very sentimental album. As my music tastes changed and evolved as I grew older so did my appreciation for this. Those types of albums are really special.
I’ve been fortunate to see Bjork twice – once in 2008 at the Big Day out and in 2023 in Perth for her Cornucopia tour. What a queen.
