Unfortunately, I did not record my dreams like I should have, and so now I can only barely remember part of three dreams.
Dream 1
This dream involved something vague but typical of my dreams from this week so far, and so maybe this dream involved superheroes and/or work and/or something else from my everyday life.
Today’s song is the song Bachelorette by the Icelandic musician Björk from her 1997 music album Homogenic:
Björk – Bachelorette

Björk wrote about the writing process of “Bachelorette” on her website:
Because I wanted the lyrics to be so epic, I got my friend Sjón – who’s a poet in Iceland – to write them.
We sat together at the kitchen table and drank a lot of red wine and I told him the whole story for hours and days, and he wrote the words from that story.[3]
“Bachelorette” is emotionally charged and theatrical, following Homogenic‘s theme of “beats and strings”, but also includes instruments such as timbales, timpani, Alp horn and accordion, among others, which helped make the song stronger and more dramatic.
Björk described the song’s lyrical theme as “Isobel goes to the city”.
