She is there singing with others an Icelandic Pop song,and in the end she shouts - " 36 thousand "
The prime minister had said a while back,that  if 10 to 15 % percent of the voting population would sign some sort of petition, then the goverment could not ignore it.
The Kareoki marathon signing protest, wants the goverment to put to a national vote,about the power grid in ICeland.
One town ,Keflavik,sold its power grid,to Magma Energy  , a Canadian company.
And Bjork and others have protested that deal.
