There’s just over a week to go until Björk's ninth studio album, Utopia, is unleashed upon the world. To whet your appetites, the Icelandic artist has just released the second single off the record, a lush, dreamy track that’s aptly titled Blissing Me.

Björk gives a haunting performance in the song's accompanying video, which also dropped online last night and takes the form of a single continuous shot focused squarely on the singer. Without an edit, the camera pirouettes around Björk as she dances against a white background in a typically unique get-up – take a look at the video below.

Björk has also shared Utopia's tracklist:

1 Arisen My Senses
2 Blissing Me
3 The Gate
4 Utopia
5 Body Memory
6 Features Creatures
7 Courtship
8 Loss
9 Sue Me
10 Tabula Rasa
11 Claimstaker
12 Paradisa
13 Saint
14 Future Forever

Meanwhile, over on Instagram, Björk shared the album’s artwork:
