not limited to but including:
Björk. Whose name has become synonymous with ‘Iceland+ singer’….Or the obvious choice when playing the name game and presented with those clues.
I cannot listen to cocoon without getting shivers .
And she wears pretty face paint during performances…
[and lots of other crazy stuff]
Emiliana Torrini.
First heard her magical voice while driving through a windy forest in NZ, sun filtering through the leaves of the trees and all such associated cliches…. lovely.
Then nearly threw up when she was being played in Sportsgirl the other day. But I guess I wouldn’t have known that unless I myself had been in Sportsgirl. So, can’t complain. But when my favourite singers are played in shopping centres it just seems to break the spell 
Oh yes, she also does an awesome cover of White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane. You should totally download it (I don’t know how else to get it) …
Jóhanna Sigurðardóttir.
The world’s first openly lesbian prime minister. OH YES!!!
Now, I admit that I know very little about her politics and could be getting prematurely excited. But as far as I’m concerned this is a “fucking awesome until proven not so” situation. Down with patriarchy and all that.
Feel free to add to the list of reasons why we should all visit iceland!
Nice list
Mine would include Sigur Ros all the wayyyyy!
Amazing!
Wow. I did not make that comment. Is that Ana?
Haha. that’s so weird! There was a slightly un-blairish quality to it…
