I Get Embarrassed Listening To My Last

Feminists Bore Me To Death. I Follow My Instinct And If That Supports Young Girls In Any Way, Great. But I'd Rather They Saw It More As A Lesson About Following Their Own Instincts Rather Than Imitating Somebody.

I Think After Iceland's Independence In 1944, We Were Not Very Sure Of Ourselves And Our Confidence Was Really Low. It Took One Generation To Sort Of Get Over That. I'm Second Generation. My Parents Were Born In 1945-46. Our Movement At The Punk Times Was Like, We Can Sing In Icelandic, We Are Strong.

Being A Musician Is Very Easy. My House Is Full Of Musical Instruments. There's A Lot Of Music, Always.

I've Never Done An Album Like This. With Biophilia, I Was Being Like Kofi Annan - I Had To Be The Pacifist To Try To Unite The Impossible. Maybe That Was A Strange, Personal Job Between Me And Myself, To Show How Overreaching I Was Being As A Woman. The Only Way I Could Express That Was By Comparing It To The Universe.

I'm Not Sure If It's Because I'm Older And I'm Thinking About Family More, But I'm Trying To Set Up This Thing Where I Can Play In One City For A Month, And Then Write Music For A Couple Months, Then Play In Another City For A Month, Write Music For A Month. Just So It's Not These Two Schizophrenic, Jekyll And Hyde Kind Of Things; You Don't Have To Be This Monster. You Get Inspired And You Can Go Write One Song From That, And Then You Go Back And Play A Few Shows. If I Could've Done That In The 90s, I Would Have.
