Beautifully edited and beautiful music. Although it does remind me a bit of Stewie's "Everything I Do" music video from Family Guy in regards to the "plot" ;)
sorry but the video has nothing to do with this song.. is in a parallel dimension with the song.
"Gong" express an intense drama and despair, sadness, loneliness, depression.. a struggle for life, to hang in this life... to fight for life... to survive no matter how hard this life is
I love this song.. one of the songs of my entire life next to "Andvari"
This is such an incredibly great, powerful and beautiful song!
The atmosphere takes my breath away..Sigur Ros' music guided me through so many parts of my live..It made me cry, it makes me smile..It just touches the deepest of my heart...!
well..please dont see this as spam, but this might interest some of you..
I found a band on youtube called "Nyctalgia"
If you've got the time, listen to their song "Lost in timeless horizons"
Breathtaking, intense song by this young, talented guy..!
@ShareYourUnderwear I've heard "Go" before, and I agree, "Tornado" is a beautiful song (although the drumming in that song kinda bothers me). Have you heard "Grow Till Tall", from the same album? It's beautiful; I listen to it every night when I go to sleep.
@ShareYourUnderwear God, i saw the "Go" tour, second night of his first solo tour in seattle this past spring. EVERYONE WAS LIKE, MESMERIZED....Jonsi, this music, that Icelandic angel, everything was just so beautiful....
@xneilp oh my god. That is beyond insulting. He wouldn't even come close to any musical depth and inspiration that this band could reach. He is a monkey and always will be. All about the monay for him now. Pffft!
@WachaDrop it sounds more like "see her rose" than how you would naturally pronounce it.. i still say it the way i originally did though "sigger ross"
Eat mushroom, or acid and become really yourself (and not what u thought about urself)...it's same with Sigur Ros... Bravo Bruno, le clip déchire, et rien a dire sur la musique, écouter Sigur Ros, c'est prendre 10 ans de mentalité dans la tronche en 5minutes !!!
In my opinion, this is the best song ever written. When Jonsi hits the high note at the end, every time I listen to it, the hair on the back of my neck stands on end.
i really love the second half of this. the buildup is great. but from 3:40 it jsut gets me. and that thing they repeat sounds like your love, your love., your love your love your lo-o-oveeeeeeee whoaaa. to me. it sounds like salka.
This video reminds me of many unexplainable dreams I've had. In the dreams, I was a child of about age ten or so, and I meet and befriend other children. I feel a strange connection with them, and when I awoke I was severely disappointed that they weren't real. Later on, I find that these people are in fact real. I soon met friends who described their childhood appearance just as I saw them in the dream, and they even had the same personality. This song breathes more life into my dreams. Takk.
What a beautiful job you've done putting this together. It looks like it could be the actual video for them... The spirit of their music is so amazing, it's like magic!
The first time i heard this song, i didn't know who it was by, but while i listened i could tell i was hearing something magical and unique. By the end I had to figure out who it was.
My Sigur Ros Lyrics:--> You said I should Follow your eyes closed.. You said I should follow your eyes to call light... You said I use to fall. When swarmed by no love... You should of stayed young.. You Finally found your love
According to the Sigur Ros website and other sources, these lyrics are in "Hopelandic" - "Hopelandic (Vonlenska in Icelandic) is the 'invented language' in which Jónsi sings before lyrics are written to the vocals. It's of course not an actual language by definition (no vocabulary, grammar, etc.); it's rather a form of gibberish vocals that fits to the music and acts as another instrument."
Thanks for letting me know - Ima new Sigur Ros fan and I had no idea. Thought the term kinda goofy, but who am I to judge? Kinda relieved they don't like it either...!
It also relates to the simplicity of children, where they don't usually have a care in the world, completely innocently indifferent to the world around them, in a bubble of their own with no heavy weights to hold them down. Freedom, expression, love, happiness.
Déjà du écrire sur cette vidéo, mais sa simplicité lié à la puissance de sigur ros est magnifique.(et oui y'a encore + puissant à faire sur cette zik :p )
Beautiful video for a beautiful song! I personally have a much darker interpretation of it, but you know, that's what makes Sigur Rós so wonderful. The music is often on a fine line between beauty and despair and it's up to the listener what it means for them. And your video harmonizes absolutely perfectly with the song. A little trip through the beauty of life.
brilliant filming, love the effects, slow motion and speeded up combined. what a choice of song! is there anywhere I could download this video in an iPod format?
