Just like that, we've come to the end of our world exclusive Björk week, just as Team Gudsmundsdóttir are rigging up for tonight's opening UK tour date at the Manchester Apollo. We hope you've enjoyed these five days as much as us. Click here to catch up with our instalments from Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to find out what the lady herself thinks about feminism, motherhood, music and all manners of other mischief. In our last chat today, we talk about Björk's plans for the future and how the Volta tour feels like a grand finale. Plus, as an extra Friday treat, we've peppered some of our favourite Björk videos around the words of the woman herself. Enjoy!

"This is the last big tour I'll do for a long time"

"You know what's happening with the internet and how the music industry is being in general... to me, this feels like the last big tour I'll do for a long time. I mean, for me, as well as everything else. My daughter's going to school in the Autumn, and when I'm touring, I feel that. But also it might be the last time I can tour with a 15-piece band, given the money in the music industry. It's not a bad thing. It's just means what I have to do from now on has to be more lo-fi. So this feels like a grand finale of something."

"People say you've changed everything again, but I haven't"

"I've always got the same voice, I'm always from Iceland, every year I age one year, but people always say to me, God, you've changed everything again. But I haven't. Maybe 40% is changed, but the rest is me. Like on Volta, I have a continuity song like Pneumonia that has a relative on Medulla and Vespertine – it doesn't matter what album is happening at the moment, certain feelings are just going to come.

Maybe people think I change a lot because I always have these clashes within me all the time, and those change in importance. For instance, Iceland will always be my emotional home, but I love cities. I'm a rural person but I always like to go back to these noise. These priorities change around, and they do because I'm human, you know? So these differences for me are part of being the same. "

"Take risks more than not take risks"

"If I had to give advice to myself as a teenager now I'd say: 'Just stick to your gut'. Have I done that? Yes and no. 50 and 50 like anyone. You do things to please people like anyone; you do what you think what you're suppose to do, whatever that is. But the important thing is not get too selfish and no too cabin-feverish, try and go with your feelings but think about others. That's what I tell my children. But definitely take risks more than not take risks."

"In my head I'm moving towards my next project"

"It's funny touring Volta now, because already in my head I'm moving towards my next project. Because emotionally, Volta's songs are so huge. And although it is a lot about me being in a woman some ways, Volta is quite macho too, like a warrior. I'm not feeling the warrior any more. I've done that. My next project's going to be less interested in hooliganism. There'll still be brass, lots of brass, but maybe taking it to more chocolatey places. But emotionally I've been too bombastic for a while, you know? Like, hmm, Björk, why don't you just join Manchester United Fan Club? [punches fist in the air and sings] Oh-way-oh-way-way-oh-way! [giggles] But if there was a time in my life for the flag and the trumpet, that's gone for me now. It's time to move on."
