Of all people, the Norwegians deserve this the least.

Even though I missed this, I was thinking the same thing.

A moving piece, bro.

You are a creative soul.
This was indeed a horrific attack on the innocent.
Now a year almost to the day of your original post, another whack
Job takes a bunch of guns and shots up a movie theater in Denver, the day of the new Batman movie opening.
The horrors are the same. The questions are the same.
The answers still elude us.

Another fine job on a thought prevoking piece.

this came up on random play on my piepod today and stopped me in my tracks, is still as moving as the first time i heard it. and still leaves me at a loss for words.

What can I say? As someone who was in Hungerford on the day Mr Ryan lost it I listened to this & it stopped me in my tracks as well... and I can honestly say Geir that that event still influences my writing 26 years later... never forget. I believe music/art/poetry can help us all come to terms/face/deal with events like this... but the picture of you walking the empty streets singing this will live with me for a long, long time
In the words of Tharek  "Peace"

It doesn't get any easier to understand this event, with the perspective of three years now.  So many lives scarred for ever by one maverick.  Can't even call him a mad man since the court ruled him sane.  And all in a bid to prevent the 'Islamisation' of Norway?  WTF???

Jim's right - an important song to remember those lost and scarred forever.

Hook summed it up with....Brilliant.....
