Debut, is the second studio album by Björk, released in 1993. Despite the title, this is not her debut album; that album came out in 1977 when she was 12 years old. However, it is generally considered her debut as a solo performer following the breakup of The Sugarcubes.Debut gained Björk her first international mainstream notability and produced hits such as "Human Behaviour", "Venus As A Boy", "Play Dead", "Violently Happy" and "Big Time Sensuality".

Real Life Writes the Plot
 Debut (Music) / int_786bf97f
comment
Real Life Writes the Plot: The existential feel of "There's More To Life Than This" was inspired by a party Björk once attended, but promptly left. The song evokes this atmosphere by actually recording the vocals during a club night; Björk sneaks into the ladies' washroom to sing the second verse.

Desperately Looking for a Purpose in Life: "There's More To Life Than This", where Björk leaves a party and wonders whether life could offer more to her? This was based on a real anecdote.

Bears Are Bad News: Bear imagery appears in the music videos of "Human Behaviour" — where a bear beats up a hunter — and "Violently Happy" — where an insane Björk in a madhouse disembowels her teddy bear.

Continuity Nod: Björk uses the phrase "I Miss You" in "Come To Me". On Post (1995) she has a song titled "I Miss You". "Human Behaviour" on this album would later form the companion piece to "Isobel" on Post (1995) and "Bachelorette" on Homogenic (1997).

Shout-Out

Shout-Out: The visuals of the music video of "Human Behaviour" were inspired by the Russian animated classic Yozhik v tumane (Hedgehog in the Fog) (1975). Beavis And Butthead watched the music video of "Human Behaviour" in the episode "Closing Time" and "Big Time Sensuality" in the episode "Dream On".

In Harmony with Nature: The music video of "Human Behaviour" shows Björk in a forest, in harmony with the animals and trees, while a bear has his revenge on a hunter. "Aeroplane" has forest sounds. "Violently Happy" In "The Anchor Song" she dives deep in the ocean and stays there.

Updated Re-release: The original album ended after "The Anchor Song." "Play Dead" was originally written for the film The Young Americans, and was added to later printings of the album after it became a minor hit.
