Well she sang Oceania...which was ok... (havent seen the video yet, but Tex's sig gives some of it away eek!

)

Personaly, I thought there was going to be a random non-Medúlla song to open the Olympics...

It was an ok performance, like i said, i was hoping for something super drastic.....the ocean effect was great though.

I thought it matched the ceremonies very well.

The entire ceremony was pretty subdued, no fast paced flying acrobatics stuff.

I'm sure if it were up to her she would have been air surfing on a big cock spewing foam all over the audience! yes

Well yeah, obviously. I wouldnt have expected any fast pace song or anything.

Olympics never were fast paced acrobats flying about at the opening. It was good...maybe because it was more spectacular than shocking, and weird, which is what Bjork likes to do.

They were way less kinetic than the ceremonies for Nagano, Sydney, Atlanta and Salt Lake City.

I mean we had human statutes on floats! laughing out loud

I am shocked to learn that there was a dramatic glitch during Björk's performance!

As she sang and her ocean dress unraveled she was supposed to rise above the stadium like a jellyfish!

It was the night's only technical glitch! mad

Now I've read that the Greeks are throwing sissy fits demanding to know why a local singer was not asked to sing!

Ugh! As-If!

Oh well, I'm SO over the ceremonies!
They are like so over 24 hrs ago! roll eyes (sarcastic)

As if you are still following up on that...meh, who cares. She sang in front of large audience, not too weird but just entriguing enough to make people check her out...

First time I saw her was 1997 MTV music awards....thats a shittiest place anyone can preform, but she got noticed, did she not.

Icelandic singer Bjork will open the Olympic Games in Athens on Friday. The eccentric star will perform before 70,000 spectators at the Greek capital's new Olympic Stadium and a worldwide TV audience of four billion at the four hour opening ceremony. The center of the stadium will be turned into a lake for the event, which will also feature important symbols of Greek mythology, including a giant Trojan horse, a statue of the goddess Athena and a centaur shooting an arrow. Bjork will join a spectacular collection of 'A' list stars at the event, including Naomi Campbell - who will carry the Olympic torch on one of its last legs - Julia Roberts, Jack Nicholson, Britney Spears and David Beckham and Victoria Beckham, who are all attending the sporting event.

I'm so proud!

Now listen to this gorgeous track off her new album!

Outrageous!

Olympic spies have said that she is going to be wearing a crazy dress that is basically a "mountain"!

No Björk jokes from any of you!!

You're all jealous that you're not headlining the Olympic ceremonies!

Can your precious Maynard say that he performed in front of 4 billion peeps; lil doll?
I dont think so! *snap snap*
