For whoever is interested, I know that "Sæ" (or something like that) means "sea", and I'm guessing "lópur" means "runner", as this is the meaning of "løper" in Norwegian.
So does it mean, directly translated, "sea runner"?
They played at Connect music festival in Inverary, I think 75% of the crowd were crying. It's got to be one of the best experiences of my life, unbelievably beautiful <3
i wish there were words to describe what you do and what that makes me feel. well, maybe not. maybe it's better if there's no way to explain it by talking.
I must say that the videos go so well with the music it's uncanny.
I've seen some of the best cinematography in their videos that I've ever seen. The videos just bring you into the music as a spider draws the fly into it's web. Marvelous stuff.
Sigur Rós are truly amazing. Every single time they hit that miniscule little spot between pure unconfined Joy and utter black despair; pure genius. Try to hear Glósóli without crying.
Okay, if by "gay" you mean homosexual, then that does not even make sense. And if you are referring to Jónsi Birgisson, the lead vocalist and musician, yes, he is homosexual--not that that changes how stunningly beautiful his music is... stop using derrogatory slander because you have nothing intelligent to say. If you don't like the music, no one is forcing you to listen to it. You have a right to your own opinion but you do not have a right to degrade others.
I didn't even know he was gay. And I of course, don't care. Sigur Ros make some of the most beautiful, incredible, enigmatic music I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.
This is probably the most beautiful song I've ever heard. The video isn't extraordinary, but it suits the song very well and is in fact quite beautiful in it's own way. I love both.
When I listen to Sigur ros, I like to look outside my window. It makes me pay attention to details, like the trees blowing in the wind or how the skies are slowly moving.
Please check out the Drum And Bass Remix of this song from Deep Focus! Its simply beautiful thanks to your song :D Im not spamming im just telling you. :)
Sorry , I was going to click on the thumb up and instead i clicked the thumb down; I totally agree with you , this song makes you feel so many things , I wish that this could sound on the spanish mainstream music radios ( most of the music on these radios is easy commercial and full of tricks , pure rubbish ! )
sigur ros are truely unique....i loved them since the first second i heard their music... last yr i saw them live in sydney... i hauntingly beautiful night that will stay with me forever....keep the great music coming
The last image from this video reminds me of The Pieta. This band always gets to amaze me with their sublime images of joy and sadness alike... Love them. D.R.

I had always heard people talk about this band, but never heard their musiq until I saw a live concert of theirs on one a those indie channels, and I cant believe no one ever actually introduced me to their music! Its amazing! Explosions in the Sky is another great band to listen to, to those who do not kno.
If you've never seen sigur ros in concert, do so before you die. This is some of best music ever created. So incredibly beautiful. I'm overcome with every emotion when I listen to them.
Love this. In literature, some books have depth and bring about important life questions. In songs it's just the same, loads of songs are about normal stuff, but some songs and artists are really touching. like this : D x
It's a moving piece. The young boy showing his love for the girl by boldly stepping out in to the unknown water. I've felt that way before. This song really drove it home for me.
they played this last night when i saw them in wolverhampton, and it was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sigur ros, you made me cry! I loved every second of the show!
i listened to this when i was feelin pretty down, and it put all these nice thoughts in my head. now i listen to it normally. I swear if there is music on the earth that can possibly show at least a percentage of the beauty of God's creations, it is this song, and others by sigur ros.
its one of the songs that you dont understand but love anyway. and it's very mysterious and thought provoking that way. very good song to listen minutes before falling asleep. relaxing
Diese Musik is so herzerwärmend... ein guter Sorgenkiller...bringt mir immer wieder innere Ruhe und Gelassenheit wenn ich mir die Truppe anhöre... Keep it up Sigur Rós!!!
Sigur Ros really do make epic music don't they.

Well, I'm guessing you're trying to say: "I love it"
Well, ást isn't an action in Icelandic, ást is, for example: Love is a beautiful thing.
But to love something is like this.
Ég elska þetta. (Að elska, translates as to love, or loving.)
I love you = Ég elska þig
