Jonsi - "Animal Arithmetic" (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

[simonli43]

This makes me feel young instead of old even though im just a teen i think like an old person but this song makes me so energetic and feel pulse to do more and im just bursting with lightning i just wanna scream my head offf wooooohooooooo!!!!!!!

[Zazie370]

So now I have to do every thing said in this song in it's exact order... and only then will I know how to truly live

[kawlitaisda1]

@1:32 looks JUST LIKE KIMBRA!

[AproposOfMe]

there was a song by this guy I heard a while back, but I have no idea what it is. I really hate it when that happens.

[infinitebloosky]

He made me put Iceland into my to-travel list. Plus the auroras there are amazing.

[xxblazingKiLLjoYxx]

This song gives me so much energy ^_^ Even on my worst days it brings a smile to my face.

[Calamity295]

Like this comment if you think people should stop asking for liked comments :DDDDDDD

jk please don't, it's annoying.

[tacogrl14]

like this comment if you're bringing in the new year with jonsi!!!!8D

[queensasa1985]

This song is perfect to celebrate the new year, full of energy and with feelings of starting something new (year,life,projects) Happy New Year everybody!!!!

[crazycat156]

My heart is racing. This is true music

[tehemptylord]

wow... truly beautiful.. no other words to describe this.

[Amoebe98]

@brea088

Lol yes who cares if he says fuck it or fucking xD bad, bad jónsi, you may not say this kind of words xD ohh yes i love them, they are two of the most beautiful people on the planet for sure 3

[Agoldfish23]

so freak



[Yoriskumo]

I love u Jonsiiii :D

[cordisre]

24 people are stupid.

[brea088]

Hahaha he said fuck in this song.

Not kidding.

At 1:10 and 1:16, he says fuck it.

I'm not joking, it is the official lyrics. :3 lol

I've heard him say shit (not in a song, a interview) but to say fuck, HAHAHAH :D

he is so adorable

[Amoebe98]

@brea088 Doesn't he say 'fucking and spúandi' and 'fucking and kæfandi'? I think that are the lyrics xD And yes, he's freaking adorable :3

[brea088]

@Amoebe98 Lol im pretty sure he says fuck it. lol but yeah, soooooo adorable. he and alex are way too cute together!!!

[Javierdemm]

This sucks after 3:22

[MissKCys]

This song is my go-to music for getting in the mood to write poetry.

Love Jonsi - I have listened to this song pretty much every day for the last year. The drummer gives me shivers! :-)

[distracta28]

00:55 :D

[hanashize]

what I find amazing about this singer is that I cannot understand everything he says, so I lost almost half the song, but the simple sound of his voice makes me realize that the song is full encouragement to make our dreams come true..

[CAVAFI89]

my boyfriend gave me this album last christmas and i love it... is wonderful...

Todas las canciones son buenas!

[L0055ER]

Thank you Sigur Ros.

[Lisaundead123]

ONE M0:00RE TIME

[getrealgetright]

3:36 RAISE DA ROOF

[hanseya72]

My last name is "Go" 

[mistermurse]

This song makes me feel like I'm running down a steep hill, gaining momentum with each step until I'm practically in a full-out sprint. Eventually gravity takes over and I'm barely running at all.

[tacogrl14]

24 people don't know how to let loose and have a good time.

[lenalena111]

what type of camera/lens gives the effect that we see, for instance, at 3:16 ? Where only a very small part of the frame is in focus, and everything in front of and behind that point is out of focus?

[klyph]

@lenalena111 Either a macro lens or a telephoto lens with the aperture wide open. A macro lens would allow the camera to be closer to the subject. Either way, it's just a narrow depth of field.

[pepperjoi]

I love this song! i was to just watch penelope a lot a so i could hear the sigur ros song at the end. When i finally looed up hoppipola i got hooked on indie rock and jonsi in particular. i love how he falsetto makes you melt. He and his boyfriend are such a cute couple.

[DudemanJBR]

In a way, this music has ruined me. I listen to this song and for a moment, my lingering faith in humanity is completely restored... and then the song ends. It's a true shame more people don't understand or appreciate this music, let alone become aware of it.

[DanielECrane]

@DudemanJBR SHARE IT! It's Post-Rock. You're just ahead of the pack!  :)

[OWA777]

@DanielECrane woudnt really call Jónsi post-rock especialy this song

[natalieks]

Please let this play during the last 3 minutes 22 seconds of my life.

[CubeRepublic]

This music is obviously trying to get momentum from his work with sigur ros, but please take the time to actually listen. It's truly dreadful twadle, all we need is the antiques roadshow or some shit cookery program to go with it and the world will be complete

[KawhackitaRag]

@CubeRepublic what's wrong with Antiques Roadshow? And... I don't think this would go with Antiques Roadshow at all... it's a different kind of thing.

[Lioness0070]

Foot won't stop...



[MrDarksultan]

Dis is da shite! Love yeh Jonsi! Yeh too Alex!

[eleisonimas]

23 people are completely soul-less, without any sense of the essence of life. How I pity the world they live in.

[CubeRepublic]

@eleisonimas 24 people have taste

[gatorades4gangsters]

jonsi..from fifa 11

[sedohr]

Check out the jazz version: youtube com/watch?v=dD_37zUawHQ

[bennymclain]

how can you dislike this....like....how......

[ploppes]

I just ADORE Jónsi! I can't get enough. Never. You're incredible.

[staaaaaaaaaaaaay]

creative

[tsquared226]

This is what happiness sounds like :D

[thejellyfisha]

honestly, how do i put this on auto repeat

[Jebact]

@thejellyfisha alt + f4

[thejellyfisha]

@Jebact cos it'll play in my head forever anyway

[holtkolto]

So cool, the song just make you wanna jump up and down.

Btw, Alex is so cute, you can see him pop up here and there!

Love the music so so much. Thank you Jónsi <3

[ABLW100]

WTF?!?!??! It's so face paced, but so awesome. The drums are off the charts!!

[starshollowhearted]

that's music worth spending money on

[CrazyLadyTheFirst]

no matter how sad I get this song never fails to make me happy

[StainlessSteelStyle]

Lol, Look at the little millisecond at 2:19

What is jónsi doing there?

[MrRoyalbonbon]

what a party song !!!



[playmobilfriends]

so great....I feel bad for people who don't get it

[Britzilius]

I wish I was optimistic as this fucker.

[swordmaster39]

i want this song to be played at my wedding.. :3

[LemmonLizard]

23 people are blind in their left eye and wish they were blind in their right eye like he is

[yoshimistu9]

I would love to dance to this song anytime! \(^.^)/

[bruisedbyakiss]

Whats the other language he's singing? 

[IAmMonsterDog]

@bruisedbyakiss Icelandic

[bruisedbyakiss]

@IAmMonsterDog and you wouldn't know what the translation is, by any chance?

[IAmMonsterDog]

@bruisedbyakiss I checked google translate and the one verse that is sung entirely in Icelandic translates to:

"Watch, in silence, talking to, crawling

Seen, wiping, are not we can

Paint the body, play the runners

Running! Win!"

Then after that there are two lines that have 1 word in Icelandic:

"Get it on, let it out, fucking and spúandi

Get it on, let it out, fucking and kæfandi"

spúandi = spitting

kæfandi = suffocating

[bruisedbyakiss]

@IAmMonsterDog Peculiar lyrics but poetry none the less. Thankyou so much for going out of your way to clear that up for me! Merci

[IAmMonsterDog]

@bruisedbyakiss You're welcome, It was no problem at all!

[melemonpie]

es muy bonita c: pero me gusta más cuándo canta en islandés

[lordsxman]

We should all be ALL ALIVE!

[Gis3lleify]

Jonsi's music is inspirational.

[NGC3370JT]

I'm 15, and I can always make up excuses why I HATE to be 15. Can't drive, can't travel, can't do what I want.. Well, alot of things. But this song, it just opens my eyes for 3 minutes and 22 seconds and makes me realize how lucky I am to be young and have my enire life before me and.. I can Go Do anything and shape it just like I'd like. #REPLAY SONG.

[inaniell1]

@NGC3370JT you is so sweet

[1010101010150]

@NGC3370JT i have been trying to teach my kids at school to see it just like that all 1200 or so! that is great mate!

[earnshaw24]

@NGC3370JT dont ever hate being young, im 21 and wish I was 15. Adulthood is really not as exciting as it may look.

[vruls]

@earnshaw24 Neither is being a teenager, its so dissapointing seeing everything around you

[MineOut1297]

23 People arent full of life...

[yoshimistu9]

the song of life, love so universal

[eevansrn]

Makes me want to be young forever

[devissaputra]

F##king great! that's all I can say

[zentidoc]

jonsi - sigu-ros lo mejor que mis oidos oyeron oyen y oyeran (oa) hermosa musica que trasiende barreras y llega al alma 

[WinxGirl1766137]

Jonsi makes me happy when I'm in a bad mood. Most people. He's awesome. I'm happy I saw How To Train Your Dragon, otherwise I wouldn't know about this great artist.

[oxfordye]

@WinxGirl1766137

Check out his band, Sigur Ros.

[SophieNeveudancer]

@WinxGirl1766137 I discovered Sigur Ross because of a movie called Penelope...then watched HTTYD and i recognized his voice...he makes me feel relaxed too, makes me want to be a better person...

[vruls]

@SophieNeveudancer I found out about sigur ros threw youtube, it was in the recomended section while listening to nude by radiohead

[hanashize]

@WinxGirl1766137 Same here :)

[TheIndiedoughnuts1]

jonsi is an amazing artist,thank god i know about him

[CasaresPianoPlayer]

pop

[ViEtxHuE2]

When i hear this song feel like im flying

[StainlessSteelStyle]

The only thing being bad about Jónsi are gay is that he might never have children to take his awesome gens further :(

[StainlessSteelStyle]

I think this song is a love declaration to Alex, I do think so...

[StainlessSteelStyle]

@siggisveiti Do you know what he is saying when he speaks icelandic? can you please translate? :)))

[MRsangomi]

DEEEEEEEEEERRPPPP!!!

[ldcreateart11]

@siggisveiti I know -right?! :) Still, I luv him and his music. He cannot go wrong -English, hopelandic, or whatever. Pus, he's a proud gay which makes him my hero.

[melvinationz]

MY LIFE feel BETTER and COLORFUL at 3:21

Thanks Jonsi!

[ldcreateart11]

I'm not complaining here, but it's so weird to hear Jonsi singing in English. I'm so used to him singing in his made-up hopelandic, Elfish-type lainguage. Again, what a great song from an amazing artist.

[Luisitox5]

It's like the edning song of a movie that ends up well, but after a really hard way, :D

[TheIslenska]

Yes, this is the music.

[Luisitox5]

@TheIslenska :D

[FrouElise]

A list in Nylon magazine by Ian Harding sent me here.

I thank them both.

<3

[bonanahh]

This is what happiness sounds like.

[TheMouseSaysMoo]

If I could hug this song I would... :)

[WinxGirl1766137]

I heard this song yesterday and I can't stop listening. It's so cool, and the lyrics are really beautiful.

[dmacattack180]

Such an uplifiting song. Great to wake up and listen to this song right away =]

[americadallas]

people feel happy at clubs listening to rap and pop and shit... they get all happy and crazy becasue of the dacing and smushing and the drinks... but this music just makes u smile just like stupid,, with no rubbing, dancing or drinking,, jonsi music just makes people happy just by listening to it..... tell me which rapper or pop artist can do that????????????

[bennude10]

@americadallas I see what you mean, but if different music makes different people happy, what does it matter? I love the variety of all music, depending on my mood. If its got soul, chances are I'll like it. Oh and Atmosphere makes me feel happy, I know feel something from that hip-hop rap shit ^_^

[IAmMonsterDog]

@bennude10 not all rap is bad. I don't like most of it, but there are some groups that actually put some feeling and creativity into it. You might like Dalek(there album Gutter Tactics is brilliant) or Immortal Technique(the song dance with the Devil is a great first song to listen to). You might not like them either, but those are 2 examples of the good rap that's out there.

[Yoriskumo]

*______* I LOVE IT

[Ogerking]

I met him downtown Reykjavik and had a conversation with him. He is very nice! :)

[emmaweeallison]

@Ogerking

Lucky!!! I want to go to Iceland so bad :(

[Leytala]

All of Jonsi's songs have such an essence of a crazy-happy life that you can't help but smile when you hear them <3

[IntergalacticDouche]

joyful.

[KoiChannel]

look up "while the city sleeps - back when we knew", kind of similar colourful soundscapes and big crescendos.

[SleepTown123]

this is most definitely going to be my new favorite band for a long time ;)

[wingsonroots]

You and I FLY away..

[jaypens92]

i just don't understand how fucking KESHA's shitey 'music' is more popular than this. Jonsi is such a brilliant composer & performer. i love the percussion too - it's so innovative & exciting compared to most music nowadays

[andywk23]

It tastes like magic.

[Amusic1231]

@andywk23 You think this tastes like magic? Than i hope you already know his Band Sigur Ros?!

[proovca18]

@andywk23 NO! It tastes like fuckin piece of SHIT!

[Rufficopter]

@proovca18 NO! that's just your tongue in a dead man's BUTTHOLE!

[proovca18]

@Rufficopter no it tastes like smelly crap music which are you listen check in your ears u might find some crap in it

[Rufficopter]

@proovca18 whatever fag .. you lose

[proovca18]

@Rufficopter you lose hahah

[andrewhiteeminem]

Gods music :) Gods people! Love and feel it:)

[Starprizm]

I like him solo, but I prefer him singing in Icelandic... sounds more mystical.

[VivalaColdplay97]

@NostalgicDepression I'm a big Jonsi & Sigur Ros fan myself, and Nyctalgia is truly amazing! If you love Sigur Ros, you'll love Nyctalgia! 

[Paschamonomy]

The only artist that can make a cracked hi-hat sounds beautiful?

Jonsi.

[xelectricityscape]

This song just makes me extremely happy. :]

[elemileTLDR]

"Every time, everyone, everything's full of life. Everyday, everywhere, people are so alive. We should all be alive..."

Yeah; maybe if the world was like a big Iceland. I cherish both Sigur Ros and him; I immensely respect and enjoy their music as one of the very finest (still) today; but I just can't buy some of the hipster crap he puts on his lyrics...

Anyway, disregard personal diferences: AWESOME musician and artist. No doubt about it

[alexv0009]

@elemileTLDR honestly, why begin with the hate

[elemileTLDR]

@alexv0009

no hate at all, man; just my honest opinion, cause I think the work deserves it. I wouldn't be here if I didn't utterly love his music, even in this contradictory way...

Honest/healthy disagreement is one of the most refined ways of appreciation towards someone.

[alexv0009]

@elemileTLDR agreed 

[Kuriix]

@elemileTLDR I am trying to .. but i don't quite understand what do you mean by hipster? what is wrong with those lyrics? I am sorry where i live ''hipster'' isn't really a thing.

And so far i only heard americans mention it.

[mande172]

Long live the Fairy King!

[Elise905]

thank you ford car commercial for showing me Jonsi!

[rymiymi]

es buenisimo!



[dancedance182]

i did NOT know he was blind in one eye. What a beautiful man. His partner is a lucky man

[randomgirl251]

eg elska Jonsi

[coombsdaniel]

He's my hero. I real beautiful person. I love him and his music and Sigur Rós. If I die, I want his music to be the last thing I hear.

[fredsk877]

is he the guy from sigur ros?

[HermanHals]

@fredsk877 yup

[ShashiFSSAficionada]

....WHOOOOOOOOOOOA :O first time I'm listening to Jonsi EVER.....and I'm blown away. Thank you Lord for leading me this way out of the blue :D!!!!

[Unsanitarii]

Jonsi has lots of sex. That is how he is so amazingly artistic in such a positive way.. Or so I think.

[Smalls]

@Unsanitarii wtf

[Fender7083]

@Unsanitarii well, only gay sex, but how does that impact music? That comes from creativity and intellect! (don't take this comment to seriously)

[theMuranosBand]

If you like this you might like my band called "the Muranos". (specifically the songs "the Burgandy Seven" and "Laozi"). We are influenced by sigur ros, Jonsi and all the beautiful things in life. Please subscribe if you like what you hear.

[dancedance182]

this song makes me want to have sex with everyone

[FluffehGosen]

dose any body notice he says fucking twice

[bajandy]

@FluffehGosen he says fuck it, but yeah.

[ExtremelyLuckyPotato]

@bajandy First time he says "fucking and spúandi" and the second time he says "fucking and kæfandi"

[ExtremelyLuckyPotato]

@bajandy First time he says "fucking and spúandi" (spúandi=erupting) and the second time he says "fucking and kæfandi"(kæfandi=choking)

[Tishimoshi]

doesn't he say (sing) 'making food disappear'??

[ThoseHeavyPeople]

The start of this is incredibly similar to Kate Bush - Sat in Your Lap, listen to the drums: lovely song, I adore Jonsi at the moment.

[AusDearm]

A lot of people probably don't realize that he says(Sings) 'Fuck it' Twice in this song.

[Millabelle]

I think it's pronounced jon- say, the 'j' is like the y in youtube and 'say' is pronounced quite fast. You can hear him pronounce his name in the video where him and Alex make vegan recipies :)

[AusDearm]

I guess you pronounce the name as (Yonsee).

[bjarkena]

@AusDearm The proper spelling is Jónsi, so the "o" Would be pronounced like "o" in "more".

[danieltank1]

you my friend jonsi, ARE A BEAST , forget all those other singers go hard jonsi go hard and keep doing what you love cause one day when you are the king of music millions will scream your name on your world tours but make sure you come to NEW ZEALND !

[acynosure]

WHERE HAVE I BEEN ALL MY LIFE OHMAIGOD THANKS JóNSI FOR MAKING ME ALIVE <3

[ihaveaverybadcold]

is there any music he does thats a little darker? just curious i love sigor ros one of my favorite bands but i just cant get into this

[Campervanful]

@ihaveaverybadcold Yep, he does a track called Tornado which is really beautiful but has a darker feel, also Kolnidur and Hengilas :)

[ihaveaverybadcold]

@Campervanful hey thx man those are more my speed !
