Mate shared this with me... Apart from missing English language lyrics, this has got everything you could want, mad drummer? Check
Guitarist with top off? Check.
Chainmail? Check.
Orchestra? Check.
Choir? No, there are two!
He billed it as possibly the best thing to happen in music. Well, I am loving it anyway :-)

actually there are 3 choirs:)
ReplyDeleteMaggý Sigurgeirsdóttir, I stand corrected. I guess I'll just have to watch it again and try and spot them! Guessing by your name though, there isn't any chance that you speak the language and actually understood it is there? :-)
ReplyDeleteChris Auton
ReplyDeleteWell, Male, Female and Children... you could count that as 3, or just 2, if you combine male/female as one choir. Does it really matter? Guess not, so let's just enjoy this piece of art! :-)
Felix K. it's just an accuse to watch it again :-)
ReplyDeleteI would love English lyrics, indeed!
ReplyDeleteChris Auton Yes three of them:
ReplyDeleteKarlakór Reykjavíkur
Hymnodia
Skólakór Kársnesskóla
Doesnt matter, let's just watch it again:)
That's all I need Maggý Sigurgeirsdóttir, as you say to to watch it again and see if we can spot them :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the icelandic lyrics (I understand some of it, but not all).
ReplyDeleteIt gives it some kind of unique feeling, when people sing in a foreign language.
Chris Auton Every single accuse to watch it again is useful. I am watching it for the 5th time. No, I am not bored of it.
ReplyDeleteI think that Icelandic is better than English :)
ReplyDeleteSamuel Doxx Samuel I agree, but english SUBTITLES or would be great. Or even better Icelandic & English. So we can sing along AND understand wth we're actually singing :P
ReplyDeleteMarc Schippers Oh yeah ! English subtitles would be very usefull :)
