Yup now that the year is over, its time for the annual flogathon that is DA END OF YEAR LISTS. Despite all our moaning, we all love lists really. It’s a chance for us anally retentive types to get all obsessive about placings and numbers and stuff, as well as it sparking a healthy fight. argument, discussion in the pub about it all.
So not ambling, no explanations (You seriously don’t need any by now). Here is my list of what was Icelandic in 2012 that made me go, “Hmmmm…..”

LIKE, OMG, IT´S AS IF THEY OPENED ME UP, DIRECTLY INSERTED THE MUSIC STUFFS INTO ME, AND CONVERSED WITH MY SOUL, ETC, ETC….

Actually, a lot of people were not that impressed, but they’ll never admit it on record!
