the first time i heard it i assumed it was about an exboyfriend or something. like, 'your sweat it salty i am why' meant 'im making you sweat' or something, and the person being talked to is closed minded while bjork is open to possibilities (stingerays in the sky?)
but as it turns out, the actual meaning is much better-- it's sung in the point of view of the ocean, directed towards humans. it was written for the olympic performance
