[Human Behaviour Prelude]

To leave Iceland was very big decision to me

Pride, mission, to London

I became an Icelandic immigrant in England

Conscious decision

When I start audition for my band

I found myself after watching many hundreds of people play with a group of immigrants

Iran, India, Turkey, Sydney

And all these people were very proud of where they come from

Obsessed, the youth downs culture

When I do my album it was very much a collection

Of the songs I've written in private

For the last tеn years

Like pure

So whеn I start to organise, to play the songs live

I know straight ahead that it has to be something completely different

Solid, percussion, trust eachother

I knew immediately that the people I had to find

First I thought about fifteen had to be musically from all sort of different direction

It took a while for all these people to melt togheter

Because they were almost of puritanist

In what music they like

Working 24 hour spontaneous togheter

And for us to come from such different culture

And from such different musical style too

It was very fascinating

[One Day Prelude]

Lyric in two different languages is never the same

I start in Icelandic and I juggle it into English

And back and forth, and back and forth, and back and forth

And then in the end of the tour very independent lyric that are very different but they focus on the same emotion
