Björk (as well as composer Ennio Morricone) won this year’s prestigious Polar Music Prize, an award and cash grant given to outstanding musicians, composers, groups and organizations.

It was created by ABBA lyricist and manager Stig Anderson in 1989, and since then people like Steve Reich, Peter Gabriel, Joni Mitchell, Quincy Jones, and Led Zeppelin have won the award.

Björk was at the ceremony yesterday in Stockholm, where Robyn paid tribute with a cover of Post’s “Hyperballad.”

Did Björk like the song? You will have to wait to the end to see!
