He hates the idea of calling it ''hopelandic'' - In his own words ''it's just bullshit'' and not in a derogatory way but who the fuck would make up some jibberish and call it hopelandic? It's just a term some journalist made up and it makes the band members very annoyed when people mention it to them.
What I find amazing is how POWERFUL a song this is yet played as soft as any song I have ever heard in my life! Incredible the passion and emotion that comes out in this song? Good to see artist truly writing good music and not just the next American Idol crap!
which is it? that punkygene has that translation and you say it's all bunk? Where did your info on it come from? I would really like to know what the heck he is saying lol!!!!
which is it? that angelmatthew2004 says it is a made up language and you have that translation ? Where did your info on it come from? I would really like to know what the heck he is saying lol!!!!
@AbstractNumbers While I don't believe in there being a "best" band ever, I have to admit, Sigur Ros is the most inspirational, and uplifting band I've ever heard. Period.
Thank you for sharing your great gift of music with the world Sigur Ros!
i dont know why, but this is my favourite vid of a live recording of this song. Jónsi looks special. Lower jaw seems bigger, he seems so thin, so fragile. + the angle you got it from is 'real' + good qualty + the 'oh my god' at the end
Every passing minute is another chance to turn it all around.

I love this band, but these are some of the dumbest, most juvenile comments I've ever read...

the song is in "hopelandic" a made up language so it can't be translated.
