Looking at the English translation of these lyrics, if they are to be believed, this song is kinda scary for Christmas. Leave it to Iceland to make a scary Christmas song

Apparently it initially appeared on the 1987 Icelandic Christmas compilation “Hvít Er Borg Og Bær” which can be found on Discogs.

With the dungeon synth revival in full bloom, me thinks Bjork should get in touch with her Icelandic roots and reexplore/modernize the style she had with this song. Was this off that album she made as a child or is this a rarity from her Sugarcubes days?

@Lunar994 Жыл бұрын
Considering the date and the sound of her voice, it's the latter, though I don't know if she was specifically with the Sugarcubes at that time as I know she was in a few band before recording Debut.

I saw this in a Reykjavik record store as one off on a 1987 Holiday album with lots of other local Icelandic singers. BTW - the style is very celtic/Irish/Scottish...just a simple slow jig in E minor with traditional ornamentation. During the first Viking migrations to Iceland, alot of Irish women went there with Viking men...making the older genetics about 60% Nordic and 40% Celtic

Probably Lopi (Yarn from the sheep’s wool). It looks like braiding hair when sorting colors. The sheep are let free every spring and gathered into a “rettir” every fall before winter. The wool is shorn which the sheep require to stay agile. There are two coats and the long hairs on the outer coat are water repellent. This looks like lopi and hand knit Icelandic craftsmanship. If you ever get to Reykjavik, be sure to look for some of the most ethically made AND sold clothing on earth. It’s even environmentally friendly.
