Björk no viene

Björk ha dejado a muchos de sus fans devastados con la suspensión de sus conciertos, entre otros los de España. Por suerte la chica ha sido lista y ha redactado una carta que ha publicado en Facebook. La verdad es que así nos quedamos todos algo más tranquilos, incluso con ganas de decirle que se mejore.La cuestión es que después de todos los excesos vocales que ha cometido durante los últimos veinte años, su gargantita se resiente en esta casi cincuentona.

La verdad es que nos la pela un poco que no haya venido porque su ultimo disco nos da exactamente lo mismo. Quizá sea una joya y nosotros unos burros (ya no lo dudamos) pero Biophilia nos parece infumbale. Nos aburre una barbaridad.Parece que ya no necesita hacer crear belleza, sino tocar los webos con sus ritmillos que ni siquiera son nuevos pues ya estaban en Volta o en Drawing Restraint 9. Reproducimos la carta Björk -sin una sola mayúscula- porque nos parece muy tierna. Un saludo.

hi folks
i am sorry to announce I will not be able to play primavera sound 2012 .

 after 2 weeks of voice rest i went to my vocal doctor and she came to this conclusion : i need to rest for 6 more weeks . the good news is that we both feel pretty confident i can start singing fully healed in the middle of june.
in the beginning of biophilia , we estimated that doing 3 residencies a year with couple of months between would be a rhythm my chords could take . Then i got overexcited and when we threw the festivals into the mix and only leaving 2 weeks between new york shows and south america was too eager beaver ... the drop that filled the meter ...

 i am very sorry and embarrassed about having to cancel things and having promised things and then not being able to keep my word , truly breaks my heart . especially to people who have already bought tickets .
meanwhile biophilia has become its own feisty plant growing all different directions . and it isnt all bad .

it has a lot of fun sides like for example the educational angle : reykjavík´s and buenos aires city school curriculums have now embraced biophilia educational program into their schools and we are partnering with the new york public library and the children's museum of manhattan to launch biophilia as learning resource for new york's children in july 2012 .
but in the meantime , i will rest and reschedule and make a promise to my chords and especially those who want to listen to them that even though my mind and my intention gets overexcited and runs ahead , i will from now on allow breaks between "legs" of tours to reassemble ...

because like that i can give better

warmth , björk.
