Lyrics and Philosophy
Tøffelhelt's selfwritten songs had lyrics in Norwegian. The themes and use of word was very complex, but yet easy and "every-day-philosophic". They have never explained in public what the lyrics is all about, the ruling statement was: What does the lyrics mean to you? What you want.
Now
There are rumours about a reunion this summer, and it seems to be true.
