I fell in love
I fell in love with Bjork when I heard her song "Birthday" when she was with the sugarcubes. To me, it was obvious it was about child molestation. When I shared that with a friend, she freaked out at me and thought I was crazy, because she thought it just a happy idealistic song about a small girl's friendship with a man. Flowers, smoking cigars, etc.
Took her two years to agree with me... and then I shared my thoughts
about that song with another friend today and he thought I was crazy
too. There's something disturbing, I realize, about realizing one of
your favorite songs is about something so dark. But I just did a google
search and at least I found one other
person who agrees with me.
