For this week’s “120 Minutes” Rewind, we revisit a 1989 episode featuring an appearance by three of The Sugarcubes — Bjork, fellow singer Einar Orn and drummer Siggy Baldursson — who discuss their second album, Here Today, Tomorrow, Next Week!, and how it and its predecessor, 1988’s Life’s Too Good, have titles that are “optimistic complaints.”
Check out a short clip of their interview segments — ripped from Betamax! — via Björk HD.
