I love this song.

'Hyperballad' came out as a single 20 years ago today (Feb 12, 1996).

To celebrate the fact, I approached some talented friends to help me work on a cover — composer Luke Howard and producer Tim Shiel.

The collaboration resulted in two beautiful versions that I am very proud to be a part of.

Luke's string arrangement makes the song feel like it could be a hundred years old; a testament to Björk's timeless songwriting. Tim's version, with electronic sparseness that pays homage to the original, reminds me that the song could have come out yesterday and it would still be fresh and arresting, and like nothing I've heard.

The lyrics have also become a personal narration for the stage of life I find myself in. I suppose that's what compelled me to want to record it. The exhaling that comes with singing the line "to be safe up here with you" is one of the song's many gifts.

Songs like this feel alive to me.

It's daunting to interpret such a canonised work and the original certainly didn't need to be added to or taken away from.

So with the utmost respect, here are the efforts of three friends who live on the other side of the world from this remarkable artist, celebrating her work with work of our own.

Hyperballad with Luke Howard

Lyrics:

There's a lullaby, saving us a riot,
Giving back the time, stilling my desire
She knows it's mad, the snows come back
The rose unburned, the page unturned.

Dust your conscience off, you'd better stop
This stubborn mind don't feel too kind
I'll find out why it's in her eyes, Leaving it to roll.

There's a lullaby, saving us a riot
Giving back the time, stilling my desire 
She knows it's mad, the snows come back 
The rose unburned, the sense of her.

Saving Us A Riot

Midnight Sun

Lyrics:

You bet it on hope and now I know there is one
If you're ready I will see the moment is done
Is it of you though, I'm not buying I feel what you're settling on

You were running down the hall and I stayed slow enough
Every minute I was stinging I saw 'em
Is it of you though, I'm not buying I feel what you're settling on
Here I hear no one

You bet it on a hope and now I know there is one
If you're riding on a hope sit down
Is it of you though, I'm not buying I feel what you're settling on
You were running for a house in the fire
Push'em ready and a heartbeat's enough
You're sleeping with a hand in the fire
They say I'm nervous, oh am I

Don't you notice I had a lung full, I had a song for you
And I breathe in you
You were running down the hall and I stayed slow enough
Every minute I was singing I swear I could give up
Don't you notice I had a lung full, I had a song for you
That I break, It's you.
