Good for you Nevin, music theory may help with understanding music, but we all have our own expertise over others in certain things in life, so saying people are close minded is quite overboard.
@sezbeatz Its not pure magic. I've heard dubstgep music which has essentially the same essence as this. Pure magic? I would call Strauss pure magic. I prefer John Williams than this though, it has more accidentals and is overall more adventurous, more rhythmic anomalies, more modulation, more variated chord structures.
@xSoalax Yes, you can compare them to metallica and eminem. Do you think we musicologists just sit on our ass and pretend music is analyzable just to get checks? Of course not, please go and study music theory and then you can stop shielding behind the "its incomparable" thing. If you think that 4 notes per figure and 2 figures per phrase are representative of the humane genius, stick your pc up your ass.
@NevinJarek I know you can compare songs and bands, but I'd appreciate more if he was comparing songs with the same GENRE. Why pretend that Sigur Ros isn't music just because you don't like them? NoirSeth7 doesn't know all music genres out there, and saying that this is "incredibly stupid" is itself stupid.
He could just say "I don't like this" and then state why, but OH NO people today are still like "wow they're not famous, imma go listen to "real music" like justin bieber". WOW MINDBLOWING
@xSoalax I am noirseth. I never said Sigur isnt music. I did explain why I dont like it, sorry if you didnt realize it because of me changing account. Genre? I believe that every genre is comparable as long as its fundamentals are the same regulative system, in this case, diatonic functionality, chord structure, musical form, etc. Rock and pop are different branches of the same modal system. Even so, you can compare, say, tension from serial works with tonal works. Go and study music kid.
@NevinJarek I like the way you talk man, as if you knew everything. Music doesn't have to be so complicated sometimes, so you arguing over the fact that I don't know anything about it is childish. You study music? Good for you, but you obviously missed one thing: tastes. If you stated why you didn't like this kind of music, then you can just stop here (didn't see it though) So please,
stop trying to prove your knowledge, and use it to help people instead of trying to mix their minds.
@xSoalax I dont know everything. The concept of art and absolute knowledge are mutually exclusive. Im not missing technical 'taste'. If you are talking about the affective synchronization that the listener experiences, then we have an arbitrary point that can be measure philosophically, psychologically, and ethically. Just as you can denote someone as 'racist', 'ignorant', or 'immature', you can intersect named societal constructs as nominal categories to music. Not proving anything, having fun.
Keep rude comments to yourself please. And learn to spell correctly before you post any rude comments. Thanks. Who gives a shit about of what you think is better music.
@mleevlog Are you talking to me? Well, I deeply believe in Wittgenstein, and I dont believe that categorical issues and the trivialities of an inherently metaphysical and tautological communication system should supersede learning sets and conceptualization. Who doesnt give a shit in finding out a well organized thought process only because it results in mutual exclusion with his own derivations, is just close minded.
@plastiswafers no, for the sake of humanity go learn some music theory, we dont need anymore stupid 4 over 4 with mediocre 3 chord phrases, with half assed figures and no sense of development. my chemical romance can do much better than this, but dont take it badly, im already over classic tonality, i only hear academic music, like bach and mahler, and i hear modern music. im up to the neck of dodecaphonism, microtonality and fluxy textures so this sounds like simplistic uncreative boring crap.
I am from Slovakia( ittle country), but as I´m thinking that we are small and Iceland is smaller and there is so beautiful, gorgeous emotionaly strong music...This music brings me up, it makes me happy, but i have tears in my eyes, I recall at all great people, all experiences, all best moments of my short life and I think: How beautiful is all, how funny are we, our problems and our "reasons of life"...Thank you Sigur Ros, because of you I will learn Icelandish and always I will have hope.
I think that Sigur Ross band is really so great...This song is so wonderfull..When you listen this you have this fucking sensation that you fly on the sky...lol ...If you close your eyes lol ^^ .......Nan franchement c'est vraiment énorme quoi ...Sigur ross c'est du son qui vien d'un autre monde t'es posé sans rien demandé quand t'écoute sa lol ^^
The music is so gorgeous ... Sigur Ros have the power to make someone taste every tipe of feeling ... and I have no words for this video ... it seems although for a little while like we live in a perfect world.
makes you want to save it (the earth), doesn't it? Anybody know the name of that waterfall at the beginning, looks like somewhere in S. America, but I can't be sure....

@NoirSeth7 let me quote your own comment: "wow, incredibly stupid". Wait, that's it? I think so.
You can't simply compare eminem with metallica. And what did you just do? Compare BOTH with Sigur Ros.
Yeah, "incredibly stupid".
