Björk to release acoustic version of latest album
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 7 October 2015
Björk is set to release an acoustic version of her ‘Vulnicura’ album on 6 Nov. The stripped back version of the record will feature just strings, voice and viola organista (which is a thing, I just Googled it).

Here’s the acoustic version of ‘Lionsong’:
