http://www.futureofhope.co.uk/ The trailer for the documentary looks nice.

verenita · 09-12-2010, 02:40 AM

they said vyv is on the soundtrack too:

The film also features tracks from Damien Rice, Ampop, Lára, Feldberg, Blindfold and Vyvienne Long. A soundtrack album is in the making and will be released this October, followed by a release concert in London and Reykjavík.

The documentary looks beautiful...

I'm a bit sceptical about the contents... Using "sustainable" and "organic farming" in the same sentence usually raises a huge red flag.

Agree. I still believe it is possible to find a balance between consumerism/capitalism and sustainability. Sure the financial crises affected Iceland and their way of seeing the world?? I remember DR talked about in Reykjavik...

asked on FB about the title of Damien song, and they answered me this:

We'll let you know really soon - the soundtrack will be ready in just a couple more weeks. If you're in Iceland though, you can always watch the film and the song title is in the credits

maybe some Icelandish Eskimo (BrokenDoll!!) can go & watch the movie & tell us which Damien song is there

hint hint!!

BrokenDoll · 09-15-2010, 09:35 PM

lol!

I might actually go and check it out. But probably not until next weekend, because I'm bussy.

I have to admit, it's pretty sweet to be a Damien fan in Iceland! ^^,

verenita · 09-15-2010, 10:29 PM

^ cool... and thanks in advance. i think it´s also sweet that damien is a fan of iceland

rachlanee · 09-16-2010, 02:01 AM

I can't wait to hear the new song. It's good to hear this news, because it felt like he fell off of the face of the earth after Sommerfesten. I mean, we're his eskimo friends, he could say hey every once in a while!

verenita · 09-23-2010, 03:47 AM

you probably might know it already, but i´ve just found this:

Quote:

Damien Rice has written a new song "The Connoisseur of Great Excuse" for movie "Future of Hope".

not so sure though... so, brokendoll? have you watched the movie?

borneoman · 09-30-2010, 03:24 PM

but Vere, where did you find the info about the song title???????????????????? cannot find it anywhere???????!!!!!!

verenita · 09-30-2010, 03:35 PM

i can´t tell you marti... it´s secret and i am not allowed to say a word

keep searching... i know you will find it eventually

verenita · 09-30-2010, 03:40 PM

alright, alright... i changed my mind ?if only i hadn´t such a kind soul

look what Guðni Freyr Ingvason posted on september 7th:

thanks Vere!!! so you're saying you found it in FB??? hehe thought you were anti-FB

verenita · 10-01-2010, 12:49 AM

i am... i was searching for a mistery singer that emmett posted and i´ve read about on the main page... but i couldn´t see the video because of the copyright, so i took a look to EF facebook, in case the video was posted there and... voilà

borneoman · 10-01-2010, 07:30 AM

so you see Vere, FB is not evil, FB is (can be) USEFUL!!!!!!!!

verenita · 10-01-2010, 12:43 PM

i´ve never denied that... but i still think is evil (yep, stubborn vere is speaking). it´s a sort of a balance: cost-benefit... not worthy for me

SisterMidnight · 10-03-2010, 06:18 PM

^ yes, facebook is evil, i can't stand it, and if another person outside of facebook says where's the "like" button i'm going to snap. if you like something just say so, you don't need a button.

it says here that the soundtrack will be released this month

http://www.icelandmusic.is/news/1503/Ampops-Biggi-To-Release-Film-Soundtrack!/default.aspx

The film also features tracks from Damien Rice, Ampop, Lára, Feldberg, Blindfold and Vyvienne Long. A soundtrack album is in the making and will be released this October, followed by a release concert in London and Reykjavík.

i wonder if damien and vyv will be involved in the release concerts..

rachlanee · 10-03-2010, 06:34 PM

I 'like' this, where's the like button, I'm too f-ing lazy to type! (hehe, Sistermidnight!)

Yay! I hope they'll do the release concert (even if I can't make it overseas to see it.) It's good to hear about him every once in a while, so we don't think he just fell off of the planet or something.

Wait!
Can that really happen?
I won't go to Australia because I'm afraid that I might fall off earth and fall into the sun.
Yikes. Let's hope Damien stays away from Australia.
