"Triumph of a Heart" was the second and last single from Björk's album ''Medúlla''. The hip hop-influenced song features beatboxer Rahzel from The Roots, Gregory Purnhagen, and Japanese beatboxer, Dokaka. The making of the video is documented in a bonus feature that appears on The Medúlla Videos DVD. The feature focuses on the auditions for the bar patrons who had to be able to make the noises and sound effects required for the song. The single was released on 28 February 2005 in the UK, and peaked at #31. The song was first performed live on April 20, 2008 during the Volta Tour at the Hammersmith Apollo in London. The live version features brass in the chorus. ==Music video== The video was directed by Spike Jonze, who also directed the videos for "It's Oh So Quiet" and "It's in Our Hands". In the video, Björk tired of her husband, played by a housecat, storms out of the house for a night out on the town. She goes to a pub where she drinks and hangs out with some friends. Then, she goes to the restrooms and the song stops, and the locals (including Dokaka) start beatboxing and making noises. When Björk is back, she joins the crew for a special performance of the song recorded for the video with samples from the 'Audition mix' of the song. They go out of the pub and Björk runs through the town drunk, falling over at one point. Later, she wakes up on a road with scratches and bruises all over her body. She gets up and continues to sing the song, with hearts coming from her mouth. The cat-husband sees the hearts from his house and finds out Björk's location. He picks her up in his car and they go home. At home, the two share a kiss and dance as the song ends. An image of the cat in a suit reading a newspaper has become a popular internet meme, known as the 'I Should Buy A....' meme. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Triumph of a Heart」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
