2. Dirty Projectors - "Hyperballad"
Dirty Projectors On "Hyperballad"
"I think what I took from Björk when I was obsessed with her in high school was her way with deconstruction. She writes these classic melodies but breaks them apart so that it's sort of up to you as the listener to put them back together. The song ends up meaning so much more because of the effort you have to give to it. Out of a perverse habit, I tried to do the opposite with this recording: present the song like the unbroken stone it might have been. But I think I probably just arrived at a new deconstruction: Björk's essence remains elusive!"
- Dave Longstreth
Good work! I quite like this cover. Having said that, I think this one is far better (and probably the greatest Bjork cover of all time):-

Is this a country version or something? Boy, you must really hate Bjork... and if she ever listens to this, the feeling will be mutual.
