Lyrics of the Year: Bjørk - It’s So Quiet

I don’t know why this song is going through my head…but oh well!

Bjørk - It’s Oh So Quiet Lyrics

Shhhh, Shhhh

It’s, oh, so quiet
It’s, oh, so still
You’re all alone
And so peaceful until…

You fall in love
Zing boom
The sky up above
Zing boom
Is caving in
Wow bam
You’ve never been so nuts about a guy
You wanna laugh you wanna cry
You cross your heart and hope to die

‘Til it’s over and then
Shhh, Shhh
It’s nice and quiet
Shhh, Shhh
But soon again
Shhh, Shhh
Starts another big riot

You blow a fuse, zing boom
The devil cuts loose, zing boom
So what’s the use, wow bam
Of falling in love

It’s, oh, so quiet
It’s, oh, so still
You’re all alone
And so peaceful until…

You ring the bell, bim bam
You shout and you yell, hi ho ho
You broke the spell
Gee, this is swell you almost have a fit
This guy is “gorge” and I got hit
There’s no mistake this is it

‘Til it’s over and then
It’s nice and quiet
Shhh, Shhh
But soon again
Shhh, Shhh
Starts another big riot

You blow a fuse
Zing boom
The devil cuts loose
Zing boom
So, what’s the use
Wow bam
Of falling in love

The sky caves in
The devil cuts loose
You blow blow blow blow blow your fuse ahhhhhhh!
When you’ve fallen in love

Ssshhhhhh…

  1. hmm…I don’t even know this song. But then I don’t get around much.

  2. Jeez…this song very old. From I guess A’Levels or something…maybe Undergrad.
    I think…but yeah around when we had More Music TV…maybe…I dunno…
    *ponders*

    She ran around, she was short and had lots of colourful umbrellas.

  3. I remember this song; she did it quite dramatically.

    Soooo, this is the song going through your head right now. Hmmmm.
    Meet someone?

    ;-p

  4. hahaha

    you know…i was so “young” in those days…(even “young”er than now) that I don’t think I even realized it said all that stuff…I just happily sang.

    No I haven’t met anyone.
    I’d have to go places to meet people! :-p

  5. When you were in A-Levels I was in Barbados. Radio in Barbados 10 years ago left a lot to be desired. I just didn’t go for the latest Gospel or dancehall releases, which left me prey to run of the mill pop.

  6. Well, one amazon thingy says ‘95
    For the single…
    Hmmm
