Buy a Trinitron, get a free Björk

I’d only I could go back to my twelve year old self and educate him in the beauty of Björk. She seems to love looking inside this tv almost as delightful in this way as she is to listen to, and in her beauty

It's the H.T. discharge that makes her sing that way.

Shhhhhhh

   Quite nice!
   I could see this person, Bjork, as Spokesperson for a big company.  Calm and informative, a good way to introduce non-technical persons without a bunch of jargon, pleasant and showing some wonderous attitude towards the amazing device right there (TV set).
   How old is that vid ?

Many years ago around Christmas, American Express ran a series of commercials for their gift cards, redeemable in a wide variety of stores, to show how much better they were than cards issued by a retailer.
Each ad showed people given a card for a store that did not cater to their personal taste.
My favorite featured a card from a young person's record store (remember them?):
Shopper:  "I'm looking for baroque music."
Clerk:  "Is that the chick from Iceland?"
Shopper:  "No, from the 17th century."
Clerk:  "The 70s, man.  That's over there in 'oldies'."

At least 10 years, because member Time posted it in may 2012.

You mean Votality 2.0 (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/beginners/crt-tv-funamentals/msg747844/#msg747844:-DD

Or even further back Time 2.0 (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/bjork-tv-tear-down/msg109474/#msg109474)

Good ones  ;D
but the reference was to this forum's user who has obsession with female celebrities and influencers.

I though it was because he might recently have posted this same video, because I did see it not long ago, but it might also have been BrianHG, but I could not find that thread quickly. Did find the other two.  8)
