Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Violently Happy. By Songfacts®.

Björk (from Björk.com): "Violently Happy is about when you're a junkie on exchanging emotion, not at one but at the level 200. That thing. And then the person goes away and you really miss someone. When you're with that person you're really peaceful because you get what you need back and you both give everything you need to give. And that person goes away and all that exchange is not there so you get your kicks elsewhere, you end up running on rooftops in blizzards, drinking 97 tequilas just to feel. So it starts off really happy then the longer the person's away from you, it starts getting self-destructive."
