''Debut'', released in July 1993, is an album by Iceland ic Singer-songwriter / Musician Björk . It was her first solo project after leaving The Sugarcubes , but was not her actual debut, as she released the self-titled album '' Björk '' in 1977. The record was Produced by Nellee Hooper and established Björk's audience outside of Iceland and cult followings in the UK , U.S. and elsewhere. Sonically, the album is a mix of dance beat-driven pop (" Violently Happy ", " Big Time Sensuality ", "There's More to Life Than This"), earthy, new age ("One Day", "The Anchor Song", "Aeroplane", " Human Behaviour "), and seductive, rhythm-based songs (" Venus As A Boy ", "Come to Me"). ''Debut'' has been certified Platinum in the U.S. by the RIAA . " Play Dead ", Bjork's collaboration with David Arnold , was soon added as a closing Bonus Track on a re-released version of the album in the UK, after the single almost cracked the top ten of the UK Singles Chart in late 1993 . ''Debut'' topped ''Billboard'' 's Top Heatseekers albums chart and peaked at number 61 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' 200 chart. It peaked at number three on the UK Albums Chart . In 1998 , ''Q'' Magazine readers voted ''Debut'' the 74th greatest album of all time. The album has sold over 3 million copies worldwide.
