"Heaven Help Bus"? It's not a bad title. Not at all. Especially when compared to "Cost in Translation." It's something I would have come up with.
From what I saw of Iceland, the buses work fine, if a tad expensive. Reykjavik also does sprawl quite a bit--not a very walkable city (although very pedestrian friendly). There were quite a few American cars on its streets. Probably an influence from the airbase. And the plentiful tour buses most certainly aren't running on hydrogen.
And I can't believe you hadn't gotten into (or tried to get into) jazz before now. Doesn't sound like you.
