i thought i'd attempt to get into the Christmas spirit et share with you this absolutely stunning interpretation of a traditional Icelandic Yuletide carol! grab your eggnog et lounge-out to the enchanting et soothing, plinky, lap-steel et kazoo-laced, marvelously mellifluous et eccentric Nú Er Gunna á Nýju Skónum (Now Gunna Is Wearing Her New Shoes) from Icelandic avant pop outfit Múm off their wonderful "Gle∂ileg Jól" 7" (2011).
Nú Er Gunna á Nýju Skónum is traditionally sung in Iceland around the Christmas tree at Yuletide-dances! enjoy!
MP3: Nú Er Gunna á Nýju Skónum
the delightful cover artwork is by lead singer Örvar ˝óreyjarson Smárason.
i highly recommend getting yourself a copy of the precious "Gle∂ileg Jól" 7", it is available from ANOST on vinyl et comes with free digital download et bonus track, otherwise you can download it digitally from itunes.
