Oct 7, 2008 - It's from Icelandic director Friðrik Þór Friðrikson's documentary 'Rokk í Reykjavík' which isn't available on DVD yet, but should be somewhere on VHS...

Oct 7, 2008 - There is a page about Þeyr on MySpace. Go there and check by yourself (I can't put the link here, because it's not allowed in the comment).

Oct 7, 2008 - First heard this about 15 years ago on an compilation of Icelandic rock music (not Rokk i Reykjavik). Absolutely brilliant. Somebody get their arse in gear and get the film released on DVD!!

Oct 7, 2008 - i have heard this song in 1982.whith trumbone and trumpet live. on an rekording wwhere can i finde it?

Favonich Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - This song sounds inspired by Joy Division's "Glass". Its amazing how the album version is totally different and yet both are excellent in there own right (the album version is quite camp, pseudo-electronic and really well produced).Anyone have lyrics to The Walk, Positive Affirmations and Lunaire yet?I did myself have translations of all their icelandic lyrics.....if anyone wants these in the future....
