Skipping Stones Records

Here's a treat! The video of "Mr. Spock" at the Dyrdin CD release party in Reykjavik, Iceland in December:


The band looked smashing, I love Einar's white suit. The light is a little low, but at the end someone flashes a picture and you can see Hafdis' lovely red and white polka dot dress.

The "Special Guest Star," which implied someone famous but turned out to be Toti's friend Þröstur, sang back-ups. And if you want to sing along, here are the words with translation!

DYRDIN - "Mr. Spock"
Nú er illt í efni
Now I’m in heaps of trouble
ekkert gengur upp hjá mér

Nothing seems to go my way
engin sól á himni
there’s no sun in the sky
því að þú ert ekki hér

Cause you’re not here with me
það er engin leið

There’s no way
ekkert hægt að gera
nothing can be done
staðan vonlaus, það er greinilegt
situation hopeless, it’s obvious
ég er búnað vera
I am totally done for

chorus:
úúúúúúÚÚÚÚ Mister Spock (self explanatory)
úúúúúúÚÚÚÚúúúúúúúúú Mister Spock
úúúúúúÚÚÚÚ Mister Spock
úúúúúúÚÚÚÚúúúúúúúúú Mister Spock

Ég vil fá þig aftur
I want you back
ég vil bímast burt með þér
I want to beam away with you
inní stjörnuþokur
into distant galaxies
eitthvað þar sem enginn sér
somewhere no one else can see
eignast fullt af börnum
have lot’s of children
skipt'um fóton bleyjur
change some photon diapers
fara fífldjörf
to go boldly
þar sem enginn hefur fæti stigið fyrr
where no one has ever gone before

úúúúúúÚÚÚÚ Mister Spock
úúúúúúÚÚÚÚúúúúúúúúú Mister Spock
úúúúúúÚÚÚÚ Mister Spock
úúúúúúÚÚÚÚúúúúúúúúú Mister Spock
