Radio Paradise has not lost her touch over the years, though I am wishing for the old Logo to return.. Still have my old sweat shirts. I hold them dearly. New :Logo is so... with out the heart needed so much! Today more than ever.

This song ROCKS! and for whatever reason, brings the old days of RP back to me~

Near on the map? Radio Eriwan would answer: Im Prinzip Ja
Björk is from Island, Röyksopp from Norway, approx. 1000 Miles distance, so it depends, what horizon you have/use.

Indeed, their Junior is amazing, incredible companion for a long solo rides. The world around becomes empty and so unimportant, it starts spinning around you.

It is a bit more in depth than as you have placed it. In a matter of music it is a reference as if what if. What if Lennon never met McCartney. What if Gilmour never met Waters. What if Frey never met Henley. What if Bjork met the creative one of Depeche Mode.
  This "perhaps" is what it would have sounded like. Some of us music lovers, at times just thinking of our own interest, hang on to the thought of "what if ". Since today is John Lennon's birthday, some wonder "what if".

The singer is a guest vocalist named Karin Dreijer Andersson (AKA Fever Ray).  Sorry I can't help you with the pronunciations. :)

Don't take things too literal, @ssh*le!

How's that for being rude?

Found Royksopp (& Karin) on the director of this video's Vimeo site.  Beautiful video. While I really enjoy Royksopp, I've found that it was Karin's haunting, evocative, siren-song that's been leading my boat into adventurous waters.  When I Grow Up from the Fever Ray album is a great tune & video to check out as well.

I agree - the video reminded me of Fellini's film 8 1/2 during the opening few minutes where the man floats away.
