I agree the 80s were the best we had the Cold War and threat of nuclear weapons but it was also an inspiration for the great music.
Well, this was a time when people cared much less about politics. The news was background noise to most of us. I don't know what it was like in Holland, but me and my friends couldn't care less about politics back then lol
But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away

Iceland is the best amigo, because it is isolated they never felt the threat of communism like mainland Europe we had soldiers everywhere and borders the Cold War was better than real war though.

The US was no different. Even Florida which has become super uptight these days. My friends in Florida where I spent all my summers during my youth couldn't care less who the mayor or president was lol

We clearly went through different things lol. Yeah, I am constantly reminded of how different mainland Europe is from America and the rest of the world. It's another world lol

Jesus, I still can't get over the fact you had soldiers everywhere during your youth lol. You always talk like you grew up like us, but it was clearly so different. As a proud Icelandic American, I feel more and more like I have nothing in common with people from mainland Europe
