The album it's on is Selma's Songs (Selma being Bjork's character in Dancer in the Dark). It's also on Bjork Family Tree CD.
I heard this song before I saw the movie so I kind of thought it was about a person's apathy towards the beauty of life. But after watching the movie (in which Bjork plays a woman who is going blind) I realized it's about finding beauty in simple things and appreciating them fully.
I've seen it all.
I've seen the trees.
I've seen the willow leaves dancing in the breeze.
That's all she needs to see because she can appreciate it for the beauty that it is.
btw, the song is not Thom Yorke (feat. Bjork), it's actually the other way around.
