It reminds me of Vashti Bunyan. I like it a lot.
This is really lovely and it seems to recall a lot of moments in her discography, while still sounding fresh (to me it sounds the most like "Gratitude"). The artwork is gorgeous too:

There's a cute little video of Bjork dancing in circles to the song on Facebook, but I can't seem to embed it here.
I am so on the fence. The instrumentation is gorgeous and reminiscent of Vespertine, which is A+ in my book. On the other hand, it's basically the same melody repeating over and over for 5 minutes. I get bored halfway through. She's been doing this 'repetitive melody' thing for a while now, like in Black Lake; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

The video of Blissing me is so lame. SO lame.
When he woke up, the dinosaur was still there.
This is really pretty. Lovely to hear the harp in her music again.(I think that's harp eh?)

all of my mouth was kissing him
now into the air i am missing him
is this excess texting a blessing
or just two music nerds obsessing
he reminds me of the love in me
i’m celebrating on a vibrancy
sending each other mp3s
falling in love to a song
this handsommest of wickermen
he asked if i could wait for him
now how many lightyears this interim
while falling in love with his songs
his hands are good in protecting me
touching and caressing me
but would it be trespassing
wanting him to be blissing me
robbing him of his youth
cliffhanger like suspension
my longing has formed its own skeleton
bridging the gap between singletons
sending each other these songs
the interior of these melodies
is perhaps where we are meant to be
our physical union a fantasy
i just fell in love with
so i reserve my intimacies
i bundle them up in packages
my rawward longing far too visceral
did i just fall in love with love?
love it! Vespertine meets Biophilia
I haven't made time to watch the video yet, but I will say after one listen I already like Blissing Me WAY more than The Gate.
