  • Such a light to this world Jónsi is! I want more people to know about him!

  • This song makes me want to surf and fly and run and dance at the same time.(:

  • they hide alot of babies cring in the background of the music and dream like effects to make sadness and empathy a part of their music. but it would be so much better with lyrics that actually make sense

    F'n Finland. Beautiful voice just needs an american consultant. i vote me! thumbs up!

  • what the hell? why was my comment removed? i didn't even say anything bad...

  • Jonsi always makes me happy to be alive. :)

  • what means Lilikoi can someone tell me ?

  • @greenaua along with nature

  • @greenaua A lilikoi is a passion fruit which grows on a vine. If the vine is strong enough, it can live through the cold of winter and continue to make colorful, firey fruit the next year, "unafraid of all colour." :)

  • @SpringSkies thank u very much =)

  • @greenaua No problemo. :)

  • Loved the movie

  • Jonsi makes music that should be the soundtrack of your best dreams.

  • Thumbs up if nobody gives a shit how you got here!

  • thumbs up if the movie 'WE BOUGHT A ZOO' brought you here! ;)

    so powerful at the end! :)

  • so fucking good

  • I always pronounce it "Joansy" for some reason.

  • Any music that alters my state of mind is music worth listening to. I'm pleased to say that Jonsi will be joining my list of musical artists who give me just that.

  • Whenever I feel lost, hopeless, or surrounded by unfortunate events, I listen to this song and escape into another world filled with hope, light, and happiness. :) ♥

  • This song + video pretty much sums up my life.

  • @01malio You live an exciting life!

  • Please!! check my jonsi inspired song please watch?v=EFVASPVPEQE thumbs up for MUSIC!

  • Lovely....

  • this song makes me so HAPPY!!! :D

  • @tacogrl14 I just want to sing

  • I am in love with this song...and all songs by Sigur Ros and Jonsi. They bring me joy.

  • I can't help but smile when I listen to this song, especially 3:45 I can't get it off my face <3

  • 43 people don't have the same taste in music and were most likely disappointed in the content shown in this video. They are entitled to what they like and so are we. My mates poke fun at me for listening to this, when we make comments like that we just bring ourselves down to their level.

    What we should be doing is rejoicing with those who share our interests whether they are popular or "mainstream" and thanking Jonsi for the beautiful and inspirational music he brings to us.

  • i knew it sounded like sigur ros!

  • 43 people don't know what happiness is.

  • 42 people did not watch the same video that I just did.

  • Your music, Jonsi, Is magic..

  • This song makes me cry. #BetterDays

  • 42 people are completely deaf.

  • it has sooooo similiar "feeling" like Sigur Ros.

  • @IrbisPL Jonsi is the vocalist of Sigur Ros.

  • @IrbisPL dude. Jonsi is Sigur Ros, lead singer :D

  • @skinnynerd03

    lol that explains everything :D

  • wow, the adrenaline of the surfing mixed with the calmness of the cold winter seems to capture this song perfectly, a true inspiration

  • His music always sounds promising, hopeful and makes you want to achieve something in life. it's inspiring.

  • @cche16 check out his band even more inspiring :) Sigur Ros I love the song Gobbledigook

  • Comment removed

  • @cche16 Exactly! Some people don't catch on to that.

  • @itsregular lol sorry, could you refresh my memory on what i said. some ass hole removed my comment for no reason.

  • Everithing is magic!

  • We all grow old,

    Use your eyes, the world goes and flutters by..........

    I think that is a message to everyone.

    This is all temporary.

    Use it. :)

  • Magnificent. Can't wait for winter and snowwww!

  • My last name is Lilikoi

    Tahnks you, I feel like this song is witen for me.

  • not used to him speaking english.

  • i love how this goes with surfing......im gonna go surf now

  • such a difference between 360p and 480p

  • 42 people are blind in their left eye.

  • My girlfriend and i make out to this song. it is awesome.

  • Jonsi is kinda like Radiohead except a lot less depressing

  • He is El Classico

  • Jonsi is an classical act and he moves the soul and heart. It is so enchanting and Awesome. Cannnot describe the happiness you get after you listen to his music.

  • @plznopickles and you don'tt have to make someone feel so bad about having an opinion on music, I wasn't trying to piss anyone off

  • @plznopickles I like your username

  • <3 

  • no one cares if he's gay ....its his music and personality

  • Comment removed

  • @MrSureesh I care, being gay is magical, because we can truly love the world, just like jonsi he can change and touch people hearts and change us to a greater existence :3

  • @MrSureesh yeah man. Right on

  • @MrSureesh if gay as in happy then this song makes me very happy

  • Sigur Ros.. Jonsi.. automatically make me love life.

  • @rainbow2551 ... isn't it simply wonderful to be different

  • @rainbow2551 try listening to french, russian, japanese rock and japanese heavy metal and going to a school where everyone listens to Chris Brown and Justin Beiber shit

  • @LittleSugarFairy Are you serious? I mean honestly that was one of the most douchey music statements i've read. You start out by trying to seperate from the the "crowd", cool you like other music. You and millions of others. There is no generalization of people, dont be an egotistical music asshole. You in your statement bashed two successful artists whether or not you consider them good. Dear gosh do i hate assholes, that cant follow the "all to their own" rule.

  • first time listening and i think i found a new favourite song :)

  • DREAM ! Sad to say is something about the bad quality :( See you soon in the store to get the original :D

  • Esta música me da vida.

  • Everybody in this comment section just thinks they're better than everybody else.

  • 42 people don't know what the word beautiful means.

  • The first moment I listened to Jonsi music, I felt soo happy and felt soo pumped, lol, and I felt like jumping up in down in my living room. I felt SOO excited and happy to be alive! Lol! :) I thought I already felt that way, but Jonsi gave another feeling, one I had never felt before. Most definitely a higher one :)

  • How the hell could you dislike this?

  • I've never heard a song, sung by Jónsi, that didn't have a strong and immediate effect on my outlook in life.

  • ahahaha good for u! that girlfriend wasnt the woman for u... u should be with someone who resonates to the same music as you or takes u further in your tastes and u take her further in yours... the soundtrack is half of the love... eheheh

  • @teresagabriel You couldnt have said it any better. Music is soo powerful. What you said is exactly how it is with me and my fiancee, and we're getting married on April 21, 2012. Jonsi was the first concert he invited me too... :)

  • how on earth, can you not like this music? it's like painkillers for the soul.

  • @MyCatLikesYourCat OMG! This is like my first time listening to Jonsi's and also Indie music. Wait, is this Indie? I don't know how is Indie. But anyway! YES! Obviously blind, this music is so beautiful!!! :D

  • @SVelicious96 You want indie? This is as indie as it gets: /watch?v=cXJlscvmqOI

    It's so underground that I've just barely heard of it.

  • @ploothable I would have bet money that that was linking to Rick Astley.

  • @MrHelloHello333 Fuck! Should've thought of that!!

  • @SVelicious96 it definitely is :) How did you find out about Jonsi? I heard about his music pretty recently, too. You should check out the band Sigur Ros. Jonsi's the lead singer and I think you might like their music.

  • @MyCatLikesYourCat Oh, I think I found him out like typing Indie music? Yeah, that's it. Sorry for the late reply. :)

  • @SVelicious96 haha no problem.

  • Jónsi and the music he works on is so inspiring and a joy to listen to, I'm so glad I managed to come across it.

  • Best ever

  • Kids at school think I'm weird for listening to music about loving life and dreaming and achieving. I think they're weird for listening to crap about drugs and sex and alcohol. I think it's pretty obvious who is going to go places...

  • @rainbow2551 They're the weird ones for NOT listening to it...Too bad for them. You're the smart one and the lucky one....Besides, there's not a damn thing wrong with being weird...I'm totally weird and I wouldn't have it any other way!! You and I will continue to get our souls moved and get chills on our entire body while everyone else is left out to suffer without it!

  • @rainbow2551 You're just as bad as them for judging them based on their taste in music. Just because we know good music, powerful, real music, doesn't make us better than the fans of P.Fiddy or whatever his name is.

  • @gonnabesohealthy I disagree with you. I think if you surround your life with things referring to sex, drug & drinking it is more likely to become something you are comfortable with. I think, on the most part, drugs, sex and drinking are more likely to ruin your life compared to someone who is happy with their life and lives theirs to the fullest.

  • @rainbow2551 real man for real.. same at my school dude!

  • @rainbow2551 good job thats great but i think its weird when people listen to only one ore two types of music

  • @rainbow2551 Success is the best Revenge

  • @rainbow2551 They are. Because you don't need to go places to be happy.

  • @rainbow2551 Sex on alcohol/drugs with a loved one will achieve you places you never dreamt before..

  • @rainbow2551 super rich CEOs and homeless people never eat lunch together, except when they were in high school.

  • all the dumb tweens are listening to all that mtv shit. they dont know what real music is

  • @iStrangleCats a lot of them are like that! they'd listen to something like this and be unable to appreciate it's sheer brilliance! not me though at least! it's their loss anyway! not ours!

  •  þömmaðu upp ef þú ert íslensk/ur

  • I never heard a song like this. This is pure. Jónsi and Sigur Rós are the only artists that play music directly connected on the emotions, on the real, on the feeling. WOW. I just can't stop listening to this song, and it is so wonderful at 2:24!

  • Just realized that my previous comment has been said a few hundred times...

  • I really hope the replay button is 18.

  • patchikins00, you made a good choice!!Jonsi is one of the best songwriters known.Music is different since Jonsi exists!

  • OhMyGod... ?! <3

  • who would dislike this?!

  • I wasn't crazy about this song till I heard 1:32. Don't press the dislike button just because the beginning isn't your favorite--good music takes time :P

  • Jónsi is cool! :) Plus, part of his name has "Jon" in it, so that's even cooler. :D Really cool song, too. *favorited*

  • @bluetrancefer

    shall i tell you a cool thing: hes actually called Jón Þór Birgisson

    jonsi is his nickname

    :-)

  • Nice :)

  • Around 3:22 ...It kinda rings a fimilar tune from the band Le loup (I think) It goes- "Oh this world was made for ending" And if you know that song and mix it with this.. it sounds absolutly amaazzing.

  • This song is perfect when you just woke up. Always puts you in a good mood !

  • I LOVE THE WAY THIS GUY see the things

  • 42 people are obbsessed with Justin Beaver.

  • @MrNebenebe fuck off with Justin Beiber comments! they're not funny, they're not clever and you only do them so that you get thumbs up.

  • I honestly don't see the point of a dislike button. It's not like Jonsi is going to change the way he makes music just because a handful of people "Dislike" it on YouTube. If you don't like it, don't watch it. It's that simple.

  • @TheLoverlyGummyDrop jesus finally somebody intelligent here

  • @SuperCamilo2 x'D lolol yay

  • @TheLoverlyGummyDrop I'd assume it was for viewers, like if it was a video you'd never seen before, and you saw 45 people dislike it, and 2 like it, you might not watch it.

  • @AusDearm That makes a lot of sense actually. DARN. I didn't really think before writing that. Obviously! Haha xD

  • @TheLoverlyGummyDrop Well, yours may be partially true, too. You never know, it's not like anyone just came out and said it on the homepage.

  • @TheLoverlyGummyDrop Well, yours makes sense too. > > I think it goes both ways.

  • Comment removed

  • I LOVE jonsi's solo stuff xD

    but I hope Sigur Ros comes back. They are just as brilliant.

  • Jónsi is magic! Born to sing!

  • I CANT BELIEVE IVE NEVER HEARD OF JÓNSI BEFORE. damn i am soo mad i just found out about him TODAY. he. is. genius. <3

  • lilikoi means in touch with nature

  • What does lilikoi mean?

  • @201seven lillikoi is a type of fruit from hawaii. its really good ahha(:

  • @201seven also known as Passion fruit

  • きれいないい歌だ~

  • きれいないい歌だ~

  • Once you have seen him live....nothing quite compares

  • so i like sigur ros.. alot but for somereason i dont think this compares... i still like it but theres something about it

  • @rekoner4 Its the lead singer from Sigur ros. This is his solo stiff

  • 42 people missed the like button because they were too into this song....dislike bar, DISAPPEAR!!! well i tried...

  • jonsi is amazing i didnt even know who he was

  • i hate when this song ends :(

  • My dumb dumb girlfriend listens to Nicki Minaj, 50 cent, Lady gaga and worst Justin Bieber. I asked her to listen to Jonsi's music and she told me that JONSI IS BORING AND GAY. I am now a happy single man.

  • @patchikins00 See, those bands (Nikki Minaj, 50 Cent, Lady Gaga, etc) don't bother me... that is, until everyone thinks they're the only good musicians out there o___e

  • @patchikins00

    He certainly isn't boring, but... he is gay... literally... not like there is anything wrong with that...

  • @hisop The only thing wrong with Jonsi being gay is the fact that I have a vagina and sex change operations are expensive.

  • @pogmofoil

    LOL

  • @hisop

    honestly, I had no idea he was gay----i'm sort of new listening to his stuff.

  • @hisop

    nothing wrong with that at all - he is actually the proof that it doesn't matter. all kind of people have the ability to realize how great and nice the world is (by expressing themselves in such beautiful songs). Only many people mess it up by calling everything 'boring' and living only in the materialistic perspective. THOSE people are actually boring :)

  • @patchikins00

    well he is gay but definitely not boring :)

  • @patchikins00 Well Jonsi is gay but he's certainly not boring.  Besides his music is fascinating!

  • @patchikins00 Well to be fair, Jonsi is gay... but in the good way. And boring, not in the slightest.

  • @patchikins00 well she got the gay part right but that part isn't hard to guess. Boring, HELL NO!

  • @patchikins00 He's gay indeed XD

  • @patchikins00 very good!

  • @patchikins00 jónsi is gay no im serious he has a boyfriend so..... your x was right about one thing

  • @patchikins00 Well, she's right about the gay part.

  • @patchikins00 ignorance my friend!

  • @buskingforlife i sounded like a greek man saying my friend then

  • @patchikins00 marry me

  • look up "while the city sleeps - back when we knew", similar big and colourful soundscapes!

  • this is ahhhmazing!

  • Did you already listen The Bucket of Kings of Leon??? Suspiciously similar...

  • @josueisthier How does "The Bucket" sound anything like this?!

  • @CoN0R115 I presume it too is music and that is suspicious without a doubt.

  • Electricity wires are down, rainbow colors are fading to brown. I dreamed that your smile's fading for good, courageous boy now u are gone. You run faster yet have no place to go, your spirit still burns now a ghost sun. You are... (alive)

    sounds like the world is ending, but regardless, this song is incredible.

  • It's life, the song is describing the attitude changes from children to adul
