Is Bjork taking drugs?
metro...@comart.com.pl
I'm wondering if Bjork is taking drugs? Howie B does. He was caught on the
Canadian border trying to smuggle some. Bjork likes techno, and most of
techno-fans take it.
Does anybody knows? I'm afraid of her.
greetz,
Andrzej

I don't know, but I hope she doesn't. She should be a natural crazy like
me, not an artificial crazy... In the Homogenic credits, she says thanks
for injecting me with them good stuff, something like that, I think she
might be referring to drugs...
Max
I wouldn't worry about it. On Homogenic she says 'for injecting me with
them gorgeous things'. To me this sounds like her typical metaphorical
way of talking. In the Spin interview she says 'most drugs basically
don't agree with me.' She prefers alcohol & even if she did use some
drugs, that's up to her. She's smart enough to know what's up.

in all honesty i doubt that bjork shoots
up.
i am sure that she put that in there to number one throw
people astray.
many people inject vitamins for energy.
and i am sure that this is the extent of bjork's
problems with shooting up.
i am not saying that she does drugs but
there are many levels of using drugs.
regarless of whether bjork does drugs,
she is not a crackhead
ok?!

Good question, I hope not.
But how are we supposed to know?

What type of stereotypical bullshit is THIS?

Bjork said once that people often misunderstand her. In my opinion, i
don't think she meant a physical kind of injection in her Homogenic
credits. She was probably thanking someone for inspiring her. Does that
idea sound plausible? Oh well, it'll probably be her secret forever
anyway.

Another Bjork fan once told me that she sat and had a smoke with a girl he
knew who got to be her personal assistant for four hours. I think that
means she'll smoke occasionally. But I'm just stupid anyway, and other
people can probably speak on this matter with more matter-of-factness.
Anyone?

so what's the big fuss here?
..since
so many artists and poets
throughout time
have experimented with drugs.
like high priests in Indian tribes used peyote.
think of all the great Romantic writers who chose to experiment...
people like
poe.
whitman.
artaud.
rimbaud.
freud.
jung.
kerouac.
ginsberg.
burroughs.
miles.
lennon.
bowie.
leary.
AND
not all of THEM
went down in flames, either.
some managed to survive the challenge.
(we must put into proportion this hysteria about drugs that spills forth
from all MEDIA?)
so does bjork belong to this
O SO Romantic Company?
well (imho) possibly, maybe.
but if so, she at least has some pretty impressive comany, wouldn't you
say?
it seems some artists
(like ancient shamen)
choose to expore
the NATURE
of expanded consciousness.
so maybe she is a "hunter" too.
i could not care less what
bjork (as an artist) does in her private life
if it serves well her life purpose
(mother and music, i assume)
and hurts no one outside of herself...
she should have the perfect right
of rule over her own body, mind and spirit.
for me, she is all about the spirit of liberation.
consider:
some of our astronauts made it to the MOON.
and some sacrificed their very
lives to clear the path for others;
artists or priests have a need to explore
inner space and will continue
find access to drugs
if it suits their vision and purpose;
if it lessens the pain;
if it enhances this discovery of new worlds.
artists require freedom.
it is that simple, really.
her music
is drenched
in the idea of perfect freedom for all senses.
freedom even for the "non-sense"s!
and just maybe
this how she is able to make us
ALL
NEONLIKE...?
ah, exquisite gift of "bjork in nature".
..her music alone is my drug.

I'm not saying I'm against people who use drugs, I'm against taking them
myself. I've seen a lot of people having a reasonably normal life and be a
user. But that's not to say I'm not concerned about them. Smoking can get
you lung-cancer, drugs aren't that good for your health too (especially if
you take to much).
I'm just asking to know, because I don't want her to die at an early age
(we all don't want that, do we ?). Then the media would probably make her a
fucking god and the 'normal' public would suddenly start buying all of her
records, say they always loved her music. We'd have a million tv-dramas
about "the real life of Björk." Tons of biographies that would describe her
shocking life, the shit she had to put up with. That's hypocrite !
So does she smoke or not ?

You don't want her to die because "the media would probably make her a fucking
god and the 'normal' public would suddenly start buying all of her records" ?
So I guess you don't care about a person dying as long as they go quietly
without the media's hoopla.
These are just rumours. The part about Björk taking drugs was probably born out
of a hypothetical question. Until I hear some substantiated evidence of her
drug habits or smoking habits, I'll assume she is not a junkie or a smoker.
I'll concede that Björk's environment is conducive to junkies but that does not
make her a junkie.
[If she is a junkie, I'll think less of her not because she's a junkie but
because she's a mother who is also a junkie.]

I will not judge.
But I agree that I would prefer
she live to be a healthy old dame
and be ever prolific with more and more
music as brilliant as HOMOGENIC.
My selfish impulses would wish for that:
music, not drugs.
But each person follows a separate path to enlightenment.
If drugs are a segment on that road for her:
so be it.
I refuse to moralize.
I plead only for the FREEDOM
of the individual to seek the means to
maximum imagination and creativity.

As far as I know, Bjork is an occasional pot smoker . Which doesn't make
her a "drug user"....

Even if Bjork does do drugs occasionally, that is far from being a "junkie".
As far as I'm concerned, I love her music and I think she's an unbelievably
cool person. However, anything as personal as whether or not she does some
form of drugs is absolutely none of our business. She's a big girl and is
fully capable of making her own decisions, and I don't think it matters to her
if some of her fans don't agree.

Okay, my liberal use of the word "junkie" was not warranted.
I have friends who occasionally do drugs and it does not bother me that much.
Sure, I wish they weren't doing it but I also respect their freedom of choice.
Same applies to Björk if she is doing drugs I wish she would stop but I really
can't tell her what to do nor would I want to tell her what to do. The part that
does bother me is that Björk is a mother, as such she is responsible for her
Sindri as well as herself.
I'm sure no one in their right mind will condone drug use but I understand we
don't live in a perfect world so we have to leave a lot of room for tolerance. I
can tolerate Björk doing drugs (even as a mother), even if I'll end up thinking
less or her (I still like my friends but I see them under set of different eyes
than before.), but when I go to the record store in the corner of my mind that
entire stint about drugs will linger and keeping Björk, the musician, and Björk,
the human being, will be made a tiny bit more difficult (at least for me after all
they are the same person.) In all likelihood, I'll end up buying her CDs
regardless but not under the same circumstances.
[I get a feeling my stand on this is not very popular.]
And keep in mind that this is ALL hypothetical (in fact this is more about drugs
than it is about Björk.)

Ok, some explenations I should write. At first this discusion really went on
drugs not Björk. And, Superday this "most of techno fans..." should be
"some..." sorry. But it doesn't really matter.
My question was hypothetical. But it was caused by a kind of fear. Just
don't want her to do *anything* unhealthy, or what.
Saying taking drugs is normal because a lot of people do this isn't really
right. I mean taking drugs is not good for anyone. If drugs should make
people better --> more knowing or more intelligent, it would be legalized!
We all know drugs are fine at the begining. It destroys our life. That is
more important then having some higher feelings, perceptions not available
on earth...
About this media hypocriteness (if Björk dies...). Maybe it wouldn't be like
with princess Diana (r.i.p.) but like Curt Cobain. At least here in Poland,
people started buying Nirvana cd when he commited suicide... Thanks God INXS
isn't more popular now...
And about this Homogenic coments: it's soooo Björkish... noone knows what
She really ment....
Well, for the end: She surely shouldn't drug. If she does, imho, she smokes
from time to time. If Anyone of You talks to Her, please ask, and say what i
wrote......

Drugs are legalized, at least some of them (alcohol, cigarettes, sleeping
pills,
and many more).

That's your opinion, but have you ever listened to Björk-songs when smoking
pot?
No?
You definetely missed something...
That's too off-topic so i quit.

hey i think i read the same interview... don't remember it saying she did
any drugs, but that she indulges in the sauce quite often.

i worked as a cigarette girl once in the clubs in dallas, and the woman i
worked for, ms. kitty (katarina), was down with the whole nightclub,
trendo, nyc scene and i think she was friendly with bjork and they were
supposed to hang out once after a show, but bjork was too drunk and had to
not only cancel her performance but also their meeting as well.
what else is there to do in iceland? =)

What else, indeed! Altho I've never been to Bjork-land, it is my
understanding that alcoholism is rather common in Scandinavian - Arctic
Circle nations and it's tied to severe depression, which is tied to the long
winters and lack of sunlight. But, hey, where isn't there alcoholism?
I read that article and the impression that I got from the commentary was 1)
Bjork parties (no duh!) and 2) Bjork may have experimented with drugs, but
she is not a big fan of the effects.
