Noted for her distinct three-octave vocal range and eccentric persona, she has developed an eclectic musical style over her four-decade career that has drawn on electronic, pop, experimental, trip hop, jazz, classical, and avant-garde music.
Born and raised in Reykjavík, Björk began her music career at the age of 11 and gained international recognition as the lead singer of the alternative rock band the Sugarcubes, by the age of 21. After the Sugarcubes disbanded in 1992, Björk began a solo career. She came to prominence with albums such as Debut (1993), Post (1995), and Homogenic (1997), collaborating with a range of artists and exploring a variety of multimedia projects. Her other albums include Vespertine (2001), Medúlla (2004), Volta (2007), Biophilia (2011), Vulnicura (2015), Utopia (2017) and Fossora (2022).
Several of Björk's albums have reached the top 20 on the US Billboard 200 chart. As of 2015, she had sold more than 20 million records worldwide. Thirty-one of her singles have reached the top 40 on pop charts around the world, with 22 top-40 hits in the UK, including the top-10 singles "It's Oh So Quiet", "Army of Me", and "Hyperballad" and the top-20 singles "Play Dead", "Big Time Sensuality", and "Violently Happy". Her accolades and awards include the Order of the Falcon, five BRIT Awards, and 16 Grammy nominations. In 2015, Time named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Rolling Stone named her the 60th greatest singer and the 81st greatest songwriter.
Björk starred in the 2000 Lars von Trier film Dancer in the Dark, for which she won the Best Actress Award at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival, and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song for "I've Seen It All". Biophilia was marketed as an interactive app album with its own education program. Björk has also been an advocate for environmental causes in Iceland. A retrospective exhibition dedicated to Björk was held at the New York Museum of Modern Art in 2015.

Future Forever
Björk Lyrics
Imagine a future and be in it
Feel this incredible nurture, soak it in
Your past is on a loop, turn it off
See this possible future and be in it
Hold fort, for love, forever
We're just momentary vessels
We're just carrying
Trust your head around
Guide your stare elsewhere
Your love is already waiting
You're already in it
Hold fort for love, forever
Watch me form new nests
Weave a matriarchal dome
Build a musical scaffolding
Between sleep and awake
Day and night (between sleep and awake)
You say I mirror peoples' missions at them
Now you mirror at me who I used to be
What I gave to the world, you're giving back at me
Hold fort for love, forever
Feel this incredible nurture, soak it in
Your past is on a loop, turn it off
See this possible future and be in it
Hold fort, for love, forever
We're just momentary vessels
We're just carrying
Trust your head around
Your love is already waiting
You're already in it
Hold fort for love, forever
Watch me form new nests
Weave a matriarchal dome
Build a musical scaffolding
Between sleep and awake
Day and night (between sleep and awake)
You say I mirror peoples' missions at them
Now you mirror at me who I used to be
What I gave to the world, you're giving back at me
Hold fort for love, forever
