Answer: Bachelorette

"Bachelorette" is the fourth track on the album "Homogenic", released in 1997. Its first words are "I'm a fountain of blood in the shape of a girl..."

5. What is Bjork's last name?

From Quiz Bjork, the Icelandic Diva

Answer: Gudmundsdottir

Sigur jon Birgir Sigurdsson has co-written a handful of songs with Bjork, including "Joga" and "Scatterheart." Gabriela Fridriksdottir did the artwork on Bjork's "Family Tree" box set. Flemming Rasmussen produced a few albums for Metallica before Bob Rock took over for the band's 1991 self-titled release and doesn't have a connection to Bjork that I'm aware of.

6. What is her last name?

From Quiz Bjork, the Eccentric Gem of Iceland

Answer: Guðmundsdóttir

No wonder we rarely see it used! It means "Guðmundur's Daughter". She dropped her last name after going solo in 1993/93. In Iceland, so many people have the same name that the phone books are listed not only by first name, but list their occupation as well! Most Icelanders use a patrilineal naming system where the father's name is added to a -son or -dottir, depending on if the child is a boy or a girl.

7. Which city does Bjork come from?

From Quiz Bjork

Answer: Reykjavik

Capital of Iceland

8. In the song "Isobel", on the "Post" album, what is the second thing Bjork says is like her?

Answer: A creature called lust

This song was also featured on the "Telegram" album, which included various remixes of Bjork's songs, including "Possibly Maybe" and "Hyper Ballad".

9. Bjork is in love with what kind of animal in the video for 'Triumph Of A Heart'?

From Quiz Bjork Film Clips

Answer: Cat

An absolutely hilarious video directed by Spike Jonze. It features an Abyssinian cat as the main love interest!

10. "Train-whistles, sweet clementine, blueberries, dancers in line, cobwebs, a bakery sign" are lyrics from which song?

From Quiz Bjorkisms...Songs of Bjork

Answer: New World

This is the last track on the CD "Selmasongs." This CD contains music from the picture "Dancer In The Dark." The song on the CD differs from the one that Bjork sings in the movie. She also won the best actress award at the Cannes Film Festival for her role in this movie.

11. The end of the video for which song features a highly animated Bjork tearing a live chicken in half by grasping a leg in each hand and pulling in opposite directions?

From Quiz Bjork, the Icelandic Diva

Answer: I Miss You

PETA people can relax- the majority of the video, including the aforementioned chicken rending part, were animated. The video was produced by John Kricfalusi, creator of Ren and Stimpy, and the animated portions of the video feature the quirky cartoon stylings of the original "Ren and Stimpy" episodes.

12. Bjork's first album was released in 1977. How old was she then?

From Quiz Bjork, the Eccentric Gem of Iceland

Answer: 11

She was born in 1965 in Reykjavik, Iceland. (The World Almanac states she was born in Rheinberg, Iceland, but that is the only source in which I have seen a city other than Reykjavik as her birthplace) This vinyl album contained one song which she had written herself. There was also a version with 10 songs. This version is now very rare and can fetch prices from $100 to $700!

From Quiz Bjork

Answer: 1977

Bjork was 12 years old and the album went platinum in Iceland

14. In the song "Possibly Maybe", on the "Post" album, what has Bjork been doing since they broke up?

From Quiz Bjork said what?!?

One of my favorite Bjork songs! And if you're a Bjork lover too, then you've probably noticed that when "Nocturnal State" comes on, on VH1, this is the introductory song.

15. Bjork is seen eating what kind of fruit in the video for 'Possibly Maybe'?

From Quiz Bjork Film Clips

Answer: Watermelon

This song is very close to Bjork, because it was the first "sad" song she had ever written.

16. Last night I listened to "Hyper-ballad", "It's Oh So Quiet", and "Army Of Me". What album did I picked up from the shell?

From Quiz All is Full of ... Björk

"Post" was released in 1995 and also includes songs like "Isobel" and "Possibly Maybe".

17. Which was the FIRST band Bjork recorded with?

From Quiz Bjork, the Eccentric Gem of Iceland

Answer: Exodus

The Sugarcubes were formed in 1987 with Bjork, Einar ...rn, Siggi Baldurson, Th-r Eldon, Magga ...rn-lfsd-ttir and Bragi Olafsson. They broke up in 1992 after 4 albums: 'Life's Too Good', 'Here Today, Tomorrow, Next Week', 'Stick Around for Joy' and 'It's It'.

From Quiz Bjork, the Icelandic Diva

Answer: Bjork

You likely don't have this one in your collection, as it was released in the late 70s in very limited numbers in Iceland when Bjork was still just a child. "Debut" is the name of Bjork's first solo album and "Life's Too Good" is the name of one of The Sugarcubes' best-selling albums. K.U.K.L. was the name of an Icelandic punk band Bjork sang for prior to joining The Sugarcubes.
