tomsches 17,401 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Björk has been very silent when it comes to mainstream media, but she has always done at least 1 TV performance for each album. This seemed to change when she didn't perform anything on TV for Vulnicura. Yesterday she came back to Later... with Jools Holland and she finally gave us a televised performance of one of her latest studio album Utopia's standout tracks "Courtship" and to her 1993 classic "Anchor Song". A flute ensemble accompanied her and made us travel with her to her musical imagination of Utopia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babel 41,493 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I wish she performed Utopia, Arisen my Senses, Blissing me... or even The Gate, those are among my faves from the album but it’s nice still to watch her live in HD video, Utopia’s looks deserved the exposure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like this rendition of Anchor Song, but I would have preferred to hear more from Utopia since she probably won't tour it apart from those few festival gigs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

yxi 4,999 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I'm disappointed by the song choices, i was so excited when i read she was doing this show... She already performed The Anchor Song on that show during the Volta era, and Courtship is okay but there's way better songs on the album to showcase.
