cold drops of water on fingertips a dove looking through your window with eyes like black beads voices singing running towards a memory a frown, lightening, white skin, blue eyes like lumps of crystal in the sockets lips, withered rose petals red and wet faces made of metal a trickle of blood down her cheek, warm and fleeting dancing in the rain at the end of an era watching her run through the field, again and again and love we're alive.
I can't listen to this song without thinking of how much I flipped out watching Ondine because one of my favorite bands that none of my friends listen to was featured in a movie (not just in the end credits, like in Mysterious Skin), and I was SO excited that more people would get to hear the beauty of this music. And judging by the Ondine comments on here, I was right to be excited. :)
@tino2kp does it? ugh that's it, i dont trust online translators anymore :( now ill never know what anyone is saying if they say something other than english. not knowing what sigur ros is singing about makes it more depressing :( ):
@QueenAwesomenes =/ yeah google translator is kinda bad, even though it has imrpoved through years; if failing at german, it will fail a lot more in icelandic =/
Icelandic its a poetic language from wherever you want to see it, google does not have poetry, so I guess it will always fail at translating (:
Going back at the rose of victory thing, my first son is going to be named Sigur =victory :3 so I needed to be sure about its meaning! xD I'm 16 and I want my Sigur so bad now ._.
@Hildaday Well, it kind of does. It's not grammatically correct, but sigur is "victory" and rós is "rose". The hard part is not translating it but pronouncing it right if you can't roll your "r"s well. :P
This is it. this is the song I was hoping to find. It's more than perfect. A wave of pure life has swept over me. god Sigur Ros is so fantastic. I wonder if they can feel the same by the music they create. I wonder if it hits them like it hits us...
Reminds me of my friend that died in japan from the earthquake. Ive known her since i was a baby. She still by my side. Just for a little while . She will make it if she tries. <3
whenever i listen to this i struggle to hold tears in my eyes...it digs deep into my inner soul. makes me feel thankful for being who i am, where i am and with whom i am. makes me feel human !!! thank you sigur ros. don't they deserve nobel prize for making millions of us feel good at heart ?
I watched the movie and I was looking for this song ... And all I can say is wow ... I am stunned by the emotions that pervade this song. perfectly fits in this movie and gives it a special touch of romance. It's been a long time I haven't heard something so perfect like this..
my dog just died...she was 16 years old. I'll love her forever, and this song just makes me think of all the amazing times we had together... forever in my heart <3
i know i JUST commented but my eyes are stinging with tears now...i just cannot express the emotions that this talented group or young men make me feel...sigur ros...don't stop making music until the end of time...
i just glanced at my arms and they are both COVERED with goosebumps...i have a STRONG feeling that my back is covered with them too...incredible...just...wow.
When he first started singing, I didn't realize it was English. I was already making up my own meaning. I still have no idea what he's saying, and I'm a native English speaker. I don't want to know what he's saying.
I watched the movie and I was looking for this song ... And all I can say is wow ... I am stunned by the emotions that pervade this song. perfectly fits the film and gives it a special touch of romance. It's been a long time I haven't heard something so perfect like this
songs are sort of like people in a way...they're all unque...they all have a story to tell. this song is one of those people that everybody needs to have in their life. incredible piece of music.
My life right now is full of stress and drama, and I turned to Sigur Ros. This song in particular...I always feel so much more calm and relieved when I listen to this song.
It's one of those songs that should float up from under the skin it's so beautiful. Sigur Ros feels like it's coming from my very center because I know it is exactly how I feel.
Everyone should stop what they are doing...put some head phones on...close their eyes...and listen to this song. Definitely 6 minutes that will make life better, clearer, and help you see the better person you can be.
I think that the melody of this song (I have no ideia what he's singing about yet) is like a hug that someone gives you when you're sad...It's a perfect lullaby to sing to yourself before falling asleep after a day full of stress.
had my first acid trip this summer.. after sprinting through my neighborhood i remember sitting on the pavement, under a streetlight, with my headphones on and this song came on and the world just paused for it. everytime i hear the first note i get the chills and the rest just takes me away
Whenever I read through the comments on any of Sigur Ros' videos, I come across one that always says something along the lines of "The world would be a better place if more people heard this song" or "People would learn to love each other if they heard this song". I agree completely, but if you think about it, so many people have already heard their music. Imagine how many peoples' lives this group has changed. I truly believe the world is already a better place because of Sigur Ros.
i heart the innertubes. i live in california, but i'm watching a soap opera from argentina on youtube. this song is used in the background of one scene. i think it's amazing. some kind person in the comments identified the artist/title. And, now I can enjoy this beautiful song. like i said, i heart the innertubes.
This song has this simplicity that demands me to clear my mind, take it slow, and just sit there. If I'm to enjoy this I must. Funny how something so simple can have such a good effect on myself. I just had a hectic, fast paced day and I just got flipped down-side up.
I feel as if Sigur Ros and Jonsi make music that is to good for my own listening, and that I don't deserve to listen to this unless I give something equally as incredible ( which is a big understatement) to them. Just to good.
I came accross this song from "ondine"film which mirrored in so many ways the magic of meeting "Amanda" and the deep love and affection i have for her. This song flows through my heart and signs my soul. Thank you.
