he's venus as a boy

he's exploring
the taste of her
arousal

he sets off
the beauty in her
he's venus as a boy

he believes in beauty
he's venus as a boy

This song is SO gorgeous. I love it, and I really love hearing it, especially cos its in 'Leon'. Its about sex primarily, but really about how intune this boy is with his feminine side. How he can make her feel - he knows what she wants, as if he is a woman in a mans body. he knows what women want!

yeah i agree. its about a guy who knows his way around women. and its definitely about sex. maybe cunnilingus:

he's exploring the taste of her arousal

even when the sex is taken out of the equation, this song has an amazing ability to guide me through a dreamscape of the most beautiful scenery... ...and bjork on repeat.

imo the 1st person is admiring her lover and his sensuality she’s is employing her female gaze onto the man out of admiration and love, she sees the characteristics of Venus the goddess in him. He has masculine qualities like his wicked sense of humor, he is using he’s charm and jokes to win her heart without implying bisexuality or femininity as interpreted. Anyways the music is so good it’s kinda of an orientalist tune!

mm such a wonderful, sexy song. the entire package is just exquisite, gotat be on my list of all time best sexual songs.

Venus as a boy. Woman as a boy? No? Perhaps the most compelling way to say that this man knows his woman very well. He speaks Venusian. He knows "how to work it".

This song is purely about copulation or blatantly sex! Venus is the planet that rules the power of beauty and love, it is also the goddess of beauty and love. If she says, " he is venus as a boy" then she is saying he is the goddess venus in the for of a boy, he's venus as a boy!

Totally agree with jmujkano. Is it about sex? Most likely. But even if it wasn't, it's an absolutely gorgeous song. Bjork, with her Icelandic/Cockney accent is wonderful. This was the first song of hers that I heard, and have been in love (With the music) ever since.

@Pizzierce also agree. Have loved the song for years but confess to never listening closely to the lyrics. Always thought it was about a handsome lover-boy but now see it about a boy sensitive and caring enough to know how to please his partner.

This song is about a boy that was beauty in everything. "Not only sexs" but brushing your teeth and walking that kinda stuff! Still its is a pretty good love making song.

a bi - sexual boy

"his fingers focus on her" could be a reference to Digit Ratio Theory
