Björk é o único álbum de estúdio da cantora islandesa Björk como cantora infantil, lançado em 18 de dezembro de 1977, pela Fálkinn. Em 1976, Björk apareceu no rádio islandês cantando "I Love to Love" por meio da escola de música que frequentava, o que a levou a um contrato discográfico e ao lançamento, com a ajuda do padrasto Sævar, de seu primeiro álbum solo em 1977.
“It's so amazing when people tell me that … electronic music has not got soul. And they blame the computers. They got the finger pointed at the computers like, "There's no soul here." … You can't blame the computer. If there's not soul in the music, it's because nobody put it there. And it's not the tool's fault.”
“I don't like records that are the same from beginning to end, that are too styled and slick. Everything is so designed and airbrushed and Botoxed, it makes us think, 'Oh, everybody's perfect except me. Everything's smooth except me.' But nothing is smooth.”
“But, but, these are the people that made the Busby Berkeley movies, yeah? So they're not exactly subtle.”
“You know, it's ironic that just at the point the lawyers and the businessmen had calculated how to control music, the Internet comes along and fucks everything up." Björk gives the finger again, this time waving it into the air. "God bless the Internet," she adds. And what about you, then? "I'll still be there, waving a pirate flag.”
