Björk Guðmundsdóttir (Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈpjœr̥k ˈkvʏðmʏntsˌtouhtɪr], born 21 November 1965), known mononymously as Björk (/ˈbjɜːrk/), is an Icelandic singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and occasional actress. She initially became known as the lead singer of the alternative rock band The Sugarcubes, whose 1987 single "Birthday" was a hit on US and UK indie stations and a favorite among music critics. Björk embarked on a solo career in 1993, coming to prominence as a solo artist with her single "Human Behaviour" and her album Debut. She has since had 30 singles reach the Top 40 on pop charts around the world, with 22 Top 40 hits in the UK, including the Top 10 hits "It's Oh So Quiet", "Army of Me", and "Hyperballad". Additionally, "Big Time Sensuality", "Hyperballad" and "I Miss You" were number one Dance Hits in the US. Over her three-decade career, she has developed an experimental and eclectic musical style that draws on a wide range of influences and genres spanning electronic music, dance, pop, and the avant-garde. Critics have consistently praised Björk's work, praising her innovative approach to singing and composition, her musical experimentation, her music videos, and her distinctive voice; she has been described as "the most important and forward-looking musician of her generation" and "the best non-pop female vocalist of the last 30 years."
I close the door
(I close the door)
I shouldn't burn yet
(No it won't)
But the wires get hotter
(It's sure to get hotter)
My palms are glowing
(My palms are glowing, oh)
This is hot meat
This is metallic blood
This is hot meat
This is open sweat
I'm gonna show you with my fingers
(With her fingers)
I'll have to draw with the eye
(Draw with the eyes)
With your own breath
(With her own breath)
I'll tear your lungs
Oh, this is hot meat
This is metallic blood
This is is hot meat
Open sweat
Well I'll be damned
If this ain't the country and
Western version of cold sweat
I heard that months ago
It's bad, bad, bad
But in this side of the blackest meadows
I'll make my winter dwelling
And then, I crush my bones
Oh, this is hot meat
This is metallic blood
Is hot meat
Open sweat
I'll sail out the window
I'll walk down the edge
I will not finish
'Til I'm fully satisfied
This is hot meat
This is metallic blood
This is hot meat
Hot meat
Metallic blood
Hot meat
