Notes

This is one of two original 1993 pressings of the second edition release with the extra track "Play Dead". The pressing plant has not yet been confirmed, but the CD matrix structure points to Optimal.

Key characteristics are: (1) The last page of the booklet neither contains a "Made in England" reference nor mentions the Antonio Jobim sample. (2) The back cover shows a BIEM/STEMRA reference next to the barcode. (3) The CD label contains a BIEM/STEMRA reference on the centre-left. (4) The CD matrix has no IFPI codes.

However, these characteristics are not unique for this release, the here.

Issued in a jewel case with a hype sticker reading: * BJORK "DEBUT" 521 323-2. Includes a 12-page booklet featuring lyrics and credits; the booklet does not include credit for the samples used on track 1.

From the booklet:

"I must have listened to each of these tracks more than 500 times since we started. Everything's long since finished but I'm still listening to these songs everyday. I'm wondering...will this ever stop???!! We are so lucky to have Björk's voice!!" Nellee.

Recorded at Wild Bunch, Olympic, Townhouse, Livingston, Matrix, Swanyard, Workhouse (London), at Beats Studio (Bombay) & at Summa Studio (Los Angeles).
Thanks to Judy Blame.
