Eisbär
The story behind the song
"Eisbär" captures a yearning for escape, as the singer imagines becoming a polar bear in the cold Arctic. In this stark, clear world, the burdens of human emotion would fade, and there would be no more tears. This influential post-punk track, with its evocative instrumental arrangement, was released by the Swiss band Grauzone in 1980 and quickly became a cult hit. It plays like a dream of emotional freedom, a desire to shed the weight of feeling.
