Show Notes
Björk is a woman of mystery. She gives her fans just enough to satisfy them — and withholds just enough to keep them guessing.
Some of these rumors have been resolved with time, but there’s still a long list of unreleased projects we haven’t gotten closure on.
Superfan Gabriel Lucas and I will discuss five of those projects that we never got to hear. We’ll talk about the glimpses of each that give us an idea of what they may have sounded like. And we’ll conclude with the biggest mystery of all: Björk's next album.

Remixes are an integral part of Björk's discography. Think about it: she has multiple remix albums — including Telegram (which remixes Post), Voltaic: The Volta Mixes, and Bastards (which remixes Biophilia).
In 2022 Björk released her 10th studio album. Considering how many artists have stopped after five or fewer, it’s a big accomplishment. But it’s even more significant when you consider how experimental Björk's records have been, especially after Homogenic.
En una entrevista en 2016 con Another Magazine, Bjork dijo: “...alguien hizo una encuesta online sobre dónde estaban mis fans... ¡y aparentemente mi típico fan es un chico gay mexicano de 20 años! ¡Me sentí muy orgullosa!”
In a 2016 interview with Another Magazine Björk said: “...some guy did an online survey of where my fans were… and apparently my typical fan is a 20-year-old Mexican gay guy! I was really proud!”
Bjork's shrieks, rasps, and growls… are what make her voice her own. But they also have consequences on her long-term vocal health.
