    • Nanna, to think you are the beautiful voice behind Of Monsters And Men, especially my favourite ‘Little Talks’ and then to hear you solo like this with the amazing Olafur, I think you are perfection I’m a little in love

    • I just played this for my grade 8 class after analyzing the lyrics as they connect to our novel study of "Speak". The were able to interpret the emotions related to trying and trying to hold things together, despite have it seem all worthless..."feels like wasted time." Beyond the lyrics they expressed how much her voice, the movement of the camera doing circles around the players, the repetition of chords on the piano, and even the instrumentalists on the steps gave depth and meaning to the song. The novel, written by Laurie Halse Anderson, tells the story of a 9th grade girl who is in the depth of isolation, sadness, and anger after a summer tragedy. Very powerful.
