Debut is considered the debut studio album by Icelandic recording artist Björk as an international singer, released in July 1993 by One Little Indian and Elektra Entertainment. It was produced by Björk and Nellee Hooper. It was Björk's first recording following the dissolution of her previous band, the Sugarcubes. The album departed from the rock style of her previous work and drew from an eclectic variety of styles, including electronic pop, house music, jazz and trip hop.
Debut is the first international solo studio album by Icelandic recording artist Björk. The album was released in July 1993 on One Little Indian and Elektra Records, and was produced by Björk in collaboration with artist Nellee Hooper. For the most part, the lyrics of Debut are concerned with love. The love themes range from "flesh-and-blood passion" for another person to the love of life itself. According to i-D, with a couple of exceptions, the songs of Debut fell into two types: "those where Björk addressed the listener as someone in pain and told them fireworks.
Released July 5, 1993. 1. Human Behaviour Lyrics. Debut was released in July 1993 on One Little Indian Records. Björk had relocated to London, embracing its dance music scene. Thus, Debut mainly incorporates house music, although the influence of the burgeoning trip-hop scene is also evident.

Debut is an album by Björk. It was released in 1993. It has sold . million copies around the world. Five singles were released from it. These were "Human Behaviour", "Venus as a Boy", "Play Dead", "Big Time Sensuality" and "Violently Happy". The video for "Human Behaviour" was nominated for Best Short Form Music Video at the 1994 Grammy Awards. Human Behaviour" (Björk, Nellee Hooper) – 4:10. Crying" (Björk, Hooper) – 4:52.
Despite Debut’s diverse range of influences, Björk’s honest lyrics and impassioned vocal delivery gave the album a sense of cohesion and ensured the songs were relatable to listeners. However avant-garde the sonic soundscapes, the juxtaposition of fusing them to real situations made them a direct line to her fans. I think not sticking to any particular musical style makes the album real. Life isn’t always the same.
