I'll get to PMing.
Eliminations
78 - Karvel - 6.63333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (Enne Driver)
Lowest Score - 2 (Eeveelution)
Literally, who?
Basically, no one uses ha. Moving swiftly on.
78 - Alarm Call - 6.63333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (Dot)
Lowest Score - 1.5 (Bloomers)
Poor sis  this song isn’t bad per se, and it’s miles better than the Single Mix, but woo lord, one of the worst on the album. Still not over how it breaks up the homogenic sound. :’(
77 - Sod Off - 6.66666666666667
Highest Score - 9 (Wicked, Dot, Enne Driver, Eeveelution)
Lowest Score - 1 (HausOfGerard)
It’s a cute lil b-side but nothing more.
75 - Scary - 6.73333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (Dot)
Lowest Score - 3 (Moonview)
I don’t have anything personally against this song, but it’s kinda unremarkable and forgotten within her discography.
75 - Like Someone In Love - 6.73333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (HausOfGerard, Enne Driver., Eeveelution)
Lowest Score - 3 (Dot)
Dot giving the lowest score. Has that even happened before?
One of my least favourite Björk tracks.
74 - Violently Happy - 6.76666666666667
Highest Score - 9 (conatus, MaRy, Lifeline)
Lowest Score - 2 (Moonview)
Really now?  The mixing has some problems but this song is a cute lil bop, how dare you disrespect it.
73 - Sonnets/Unrealities XI - 6.8
Highest Score - 10 (hello_world, HausOfGerard, Lifeline)
Lowest Score - 1 (MellowYellow)
Not this HYMN getting dragged  it deserved better. What kinda gospel realness. :’(
70 - Sacrifice - 6.86666666666667
Highest Score - 10 (Eeveelution)
Lowest Score - 3 (Moonview)
One of Björk’s most underrated tracks, the beat drop gives us all life and y’all know it, one of Biophilia’s finest. :’(
70 - Mother Heroic - 6.86666666666667
Highest Score - 10 (conatus)
Lowest Score - 4 (HaufOfGerard, Moonview)
I literally never listen to it, should’ve been out sooner.
70 - Come To Me - 6.86666666666667
Highest Score - 10 (conatus)
Lowest Score - 3 (Moonview)

Why did nobody tell me about the existence of this?
And why the hell is There's More to Life Than This not top 30?

I think it would be better to just keep sending PMs whenever you update the thread,

As long as y'all don't find the 3 PMs a year too much, then it'll be fine.

Nothing too big leaving.
I love Homogenic and think it's my favorite Bjork album, but Alarm Call has always been one of my least favorite songs from her. Something about the way she says "Wake Up" has always annoyed me.
A little bummed about Sacrifice leaving though.

Violently Happy and Alarm Call are two of her worst singles, glad they're out.
Debut has been done wrong. It's so underrated on here. Sad about Sacrifice too, but not surprised.

Tomorrow is more likely, I feel people wouldn't want two different PMs.

Wait @ Alarm Call and Sod Off. Both are amazing? Why.

One of them is a b-side, one of them is hated.
I'm gonna try to go up to #50. There may be some upsets.

Here y'all go, up to #50 like I promised.
Eliminations
69 - Pleasure Is All Mine - 6.9
Highest Score - 10 (βØΔ, Wicked, RatedG²)
Lowest Score - 1 (MellowYellow)
Really? I always thought this was a fan favourite  so dark and sexy. A great opening to one of her most interesting albums.
67 - Headphones - 6.93333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (Bloomers)
Lowest Score - 4 (Moonview)
This one always gets praised, but I never really got into it. You can definitely see how it’s almost a set up for her later work, but it’s just a bit… bare.
67 - Vertebrae by Vertebrae - 6.93333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (Lifeline)
Lowest Score - 2 (Moonview)
:’(
One of Volta’s true bops, even if it is oddly reminiscent of one of DR9 it’s tracks. Probably her best vocals on that album too. I very nearly gave this a 10, poor sis.
66 - Frosti - 6.95
Highest Score - 10 (RatedG²)
Lowest Score - 2 (Moonview)
It’s definitely pretty, but tbh we should just be happy it got this far.
64 - Crying - 7
Highest Score - 10 (Wicked, Lifeline)
Lowest Score - 2 (Moonview)
I really can’t remember enough about this for a write-up. Poor ha.
64 - Heirloom - 7
Highest Score - 10 (Crystalline, Wicked, HausOfGerard)
Lowest Score - 3 (MellowYellow, Moonview)
Lots of Björk fans hate this for one of two reasons; it was added late to the album, replacing the much better (?) Generous Palmstroke, and the backing isn’t really hers, she’s just singing over the top of another song. Tbh, it’s a necessary danceable moment on Vespertine, and provides a much needed moment of relief. Y’all keep doing the most.
63 - Solstice - 7.03333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (βØΔ, conatus, HausOfGerard, Dot)
Lowest Score - 3 (Moonview)
One of my least favourites on Biophilia. This is also one of the tracks where she used a ‘live version’, and thank God for that. Look up the studio version, it’s even more disgusting than the one on the album.
62 - An Echo, A Stain - 7.06666666666667
Highest Score - 10 (Crystalline, HausOfGerard)
Lowest Score - 3 (MellowYellow, Moonview)
Aw :’( probably the sexiest on Vespertine. It’s not the most immediate, but it’s a definite grower, and it will be missed. :’(
61 - The Modern Things - 7.1
Highest Score - 10 (HausOfGerard)
Lowest Score - 4 (Moonview)
It’s an okay song, but being sandwiched between one of her best songs and her biggest hits probably haven’t helped it’s chances
59 - Amphibian - 7.13333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (conatus, Enne Driver., RatedG²)
Lowest Score - 3 (Moonview)
It’s, erm, okay…
59 - Aurora - 7.13333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (Crystalline, Eeveelution)
Lowest Score - 3 (MellowYellow, HausOfGerard)
Not one of Björk her most melodic songs ever  so ****ing pretty  Top 20 material
58 - Scatterheart - 7.1666666666667
Highest Score - 10 (Wicked, Lifeline)
Lowest Score - 2 (MellowYellow)
:’(
Not my cup of tea, but still.
56 - Immature - 7.2
Highest Score - 10 (Crystalline, Wicked)
Lowest Score - 4 (Moonview)
I digress. The Mark Bell version slays, and y’all know it.
56 - The Dull Flame Of Desire - 7.2
Highest Score - 10 (βØΔ, HausOfGerard, Dot, Bloomers, Eeveelution)
Lowest Score - 1 (Lifeline)
I’ve basically numbed myself to Antony by now, but Lord how I hated this song because of him  why she brought him back for Atom Dance is beyond me
The song, however, is so anthemic and beautiful.
55 - Sun In My Mouth - 7.23333333333333
Highest Score - 10 (Eeveelution)
Lowest Score - 1 (MellowYellow)
Probably the weakest song on Vespertine.
51 - I Remember You - 7.2666666666667
Highest Score - 10 (βØΔ, RatedG²)
Lowest Score - 1 (Moonview)
I, on the other hand, don’t remember you.
51 - Overture - 7.2666666666667
Highest Score - 10 (Dot)
Lowest Score - 4 (Moonview)
How the hell did this beat Scatterheart?
51 - Harm Of Will - 7.2666666666667
Highest Score - 10 (HausOfGerard, Eeveelution)
Lowest Score - 3 (MellowYellow)
It’s cute but not catchy at all to me.
51 - The Anchor Song - 7.2666666666667
Highest Score - 10 (conatus, HausOfGerard)
Lowest Score - 1 (Lifeline)
What kinda throwback  this isn’t one of my favourites, at all, but it has a special lil place in her discography.
50 - It’s Oh So Quiet - 7.3
Highest Score - 10 (HausOfGerard, Bloomers, Eeveelution)
Lowest Score - 1 (conatus)
Finally  her biggest hit leaving would usually be sad, but I think we can all agree it isn’t worthy of it’s level of notoriety.

Headphones? Heirloom? An Echo A Stain? The Anchor Song? Immature? I'm becoming disgusted.

All my 10s
An Echo, a Stain is the worst on the album, but those other songs from Vespertine all deserved top 25. MellowYellow you are a disaster.

None of my top songs are on the list yet.
Probably they will be on the top25.
