  • A Sigur Ros fan from Finland here. One of the best of Sigur Ros indeed. Only need to close my eyes and listen to this song and I can allready see many things... :)

  • I realized i wanted to change my reality wich was attached to the music I used (and should not) to listen. Sigur Ros was what i was looking for, feels right.

  • It's amazing the inspiration you get by simply reading the comments of Sigur Ròs videos.. Only ones I know without any hate or spam.. Wonderful :)

  • of course i could look it up, but i have no idea what these guys are singing about, and i quite like that.

  • best song siru ros

  • I listen to this song almost every night before I go to bed. No matter how I feel before I listen to the song, I always feel amazing by the time it finishes. This band has done more to my emotions than anything else I've ever experienced.

  • this might be the best one

  • eleven people have no feelings and no idea about music!

  • Sometimes when I need to think, when my life needs a change, then I hear Sigur Ros and I know heaven is so close thanks to that Iceland group

    Any group make you feel like Sigur, Iceland people, you need to be proud of your country and having that great music, honestly. Greetings from Spain

  • That's it, I want this song played at my funeral.

  • TY!

    Heard in a Belgian documentory as supporting music. Never heard such a thing before... how heavenly....

    I needed to know who was the artist of this beauty, so I just mailed to the production of the documentory to get to know who created this...

    This is it.... this is so much more than a song, or music....

    Dit is niet normaal ... Dank je, Mr. Sigur

    TY!

  • This is favorite song ever....

  • Comment removed

  • i still can't find another album that has blown me away like takk, nothing even close

  • voglio vedere le facce da ebete dei 10 deficienti che hanno messo "non mi piace"...

  • This bráðabirgða- mig stoltur til vera Íslenska. ÉG ást Sigur Rós! Þeir ert the mjög bestur.

    Greetings from Iceland

  • @xForeverEternalx LOL -- þu blandar ensku og íslensku? ;) Ég er rugluð. :P

  • In my very humble opinion , The Greatest Song ever recorded , it leaves me spellbound.

  • Hey i just figured out that the chord progression that starts at 1.12 is really close to the one thats used in the star-theme from super mario, haha. Amazing song nonetheless :D

  • =D

  • soooooooooo bored!

  • @JESSlCO and what do you expect, uh? it's Sigur ros not fucking lady gaga, gtfo

  • @JESSlCO Patience, child. Listen past 0:07. (You're welcome)

  • @JESSlCO

    some people DO NOT make music for the A.D.D. epidemic

  • It's good, and I like it, but the music overpowers the vocals a bit.

  • Does anyone else think "tunglsljósinu" is about the coolest-sounding word in any language ever?

  • @jhillst

    every icelandic word is the coolest-sounding word in any language ever... although polish and finnish are good runners up haha.

  • if the world listen to this kind of music it probaly would'nt be such a bad place to live. hey thanx u guys!

  • sigur ros. thank you.

    you have helped me achieve understanding of the meaning of life itself. through a medium that is so accesible; music. listening to your music has literally changed me as a person. please continue to produce such master pieces. i think im in love with your creations x

  • Ég halla þig á, í ró

    Það stóð allt í stað, og þú

    Þú söngst til mín svo hljótt

    Þú söngst til mín svo hljótt

    Í tunglsljósinu ég sé þig á grúfu

    Í tunglsljósinu þú breytist í blátt húm

    Ég þakka þér þá von sem þú gafst mér

    Ég þakka þér þá von...

  • Aww, it's over...

    =(

  • even though each one is filled with much emotion and pure bliss

  • i think i have a new favorite sigur ros song

  • amor sólo amor... de mis canciones favoritas

  • Thank you !

  • Me siento en paz

    Todo estaba en su lugar, y

    Usted me cantó en voz tan baja

    Usted me cantó en voz tan baja

    En el claro de luna te veo mirando hacia abajo

    En el claro de luna que se convierten en el crepúsculo azul

    Le doy las gracias por la esperanza que me diste

    Le doy las gracias por la esperanza ...

  • Can anybody name a band better than Sigur Ros?

  • @theMuranosBand

    Sigur Ros is the One band!!

    Only Sigur Ros.

  • @theMuranosBand I wouldnt say better, but the band Hammock is damn close. Check out "Breathturn" by them :)

  • @theMuranosBand Nope.

  • there should be two hands making a heart for the love button <3

  • Comment removed

  • Thumbs up if this song gives you shivers!!!!

  • i wish there was a third thumb that said love....

  • This song gives me chills i was driving from work to my home and in 3:20 and the rest that voice and cello iits freaking superb.... ecstatic

  • @egmac85 wow right on it man, 3:20 is the most beautiful part of the song

  • my favorite song

  • @alexandregareau mine too

  • @dlvc111 qé me imagino, es tu mamá, no?

  • their music is so captivating, i can't get enough of it!

  • 9 dislikes????? WTF!!!!?!?!

    Who wud ever dislike thiss???

    sigur ros is music!

  • Everything is nothing, nothing is everything.

  • now i can play a litle bit in piano =)

  • lol im tryin to learn this song in guitar i think there are not tutorials so im tryin to follow the song

  • I just bought Takk not expecting much but it blew me away. So far, I've never heard a Sigur Ros song I didn't like, especially this one. By far my favorite band. Cool video by the way

  • I personally don't like every Sigur Ros song, but I do like most of them, It annoys me that most people nowadays don't appreciate beauty and happiness in music

  • what are some other very beautiful tunes by sigur ros or other artists if i liked this?

  • @anthonya13 You could try Bon Iver - "Blood Bank", Iron & Wine - "Swans & The Swimming", Redneck Manifesto - "I Am Brazil", Explosions In The Sky - "First Breath After Coma", Tycho - "Send And Recieve", or Aphex Twin - "Xtal".

  • @djschoolcraftmusic If u dnt like blood bank or any E.I.T.S song ur already dead

  • @anthonya13 try glosoli, hoppipola, poplaglid, gong, There all amazin tbh, except for the first album, von, tht was a bit :/

    But the remake of the song von on the other albums is WICKED!!!! staralfur is nice too!

  • @TheOneAndOnly554153 Von is the song that first introduced me to SR. It was on a video called Tripping Up Trump on YT. I just kept coming back and listening to it, like an obsession. Then I had to e-mail the guy who posted it just to find out who played it. It's been a whirlwind ride ever since. Changed my life. And now that I'm here, I can never go back. And I don't want to! I settled on Glosoli though as my favourite SR song.

  • @anthonya13, Followed By Ghosts is absolutely amazing.

  • at the beginning it's like you're on a journey ,but at the end when it gets crazy , it's like u accomplished something

  • were is this shot, it's quite a beautiful place

  • Comment removed

  • please post the lyrics

  • I want this song played at my cremation, with some flames at 4:51 please

  • masterpiece

  • brain freshing music

    gives me a brand new perspective towards life

    and i retain the hope of life ever since!

  • beautiful. I love sigur ros

  • I'm so glad this video was featured. you have a gift for providing the perfect, complimentary images to the music. and with this music it's no easy feat. hats off to you ;)

  • I love how the imagery in my head when I listen to sigur ros seems to be universal in these videos. That almost never happens. In fact, most music I listen to doesn't put pictures in my head. Only Sigur Ros. I love them even more for that :)

  • I thought Explosions in the Sky was some of the most moving music I'd ever heard. Then I heard Sigur Ros...

  • explosion in the sky are stil awesome

  • haha. same here

  • @InsertHypernova I quite literally JUST made this comment, though on Facebook. I really agree wholeheartedly with you.

  • @InsertHypernova Explosions in the Sky are great, but they're like the gateway drug into the world of post-rock. everyone starts there, but ends up at Sigur Ros and GS!YBE

  • @InsertHypernova Agreed. Explosions is great but Sigur Ros surpasses them, as they do all other groups, with ease.

  • @InsertHypernova They're both brilliant though! I appreciate them both equally.

  • So wonderful to start my morning with.

  • I have to get the album! I need some good stuff to drive to, my mom listens to crap!

  • Just ordered it from Amazon, LOL

  • Yea thats my Holland <3

  • any other good sigur ros tunes? this is some of the most beautiful shit I have ever heard

  • then dont call it shit Dx. Anyway you should check out andvari, it is a song of sigur ros, of course :)

  • se lest and untitled 3 are awesome.

  • All their stuff is as good as this!

  • meo blodnasir, ni batteri, samskeyti, ba ba ti ki di do, gobbledigook, andvari (favorite)

  • Troll.

  • my favorite song from SR

    i could say my favorite group is Sigur Ros, i NEVER EVER get tired of listening to their art

  • Wow, Basketballerke, you really get at the heart of the beauty that is sigur; every video I've seen that you've uploaded is perfect for the music's tone. I could watch this and Ny Batteri every single day. "Takk!"

  • music that makes you think,

    is the world ready for that?

    sigur ros is pure awsomeness

    (if this word would exist)

  • takk

  • Beyond any words, emotions or thoughts.

  • Whoa, where is this?

  • Life I Love You! Thanks... Take care, God bless...

  • Alright, finally available where I live! Beautiful track, lovely video.

  • Basketballerke - your sigur ros videos never disappoint.

  • ive forget how good this sounds unfortunatly my takk cd is scratched to execive use

  • thx to the music, this video is awesome.

    Just do more synch with the music, you can do something awesome.

  • you live in such a beautiful place.........

  • God, this song sounds so sad. It's so beautiful, but it's got this really, really depressing vibe to it. Maybe it's just because I'm relating it to things.

  • I second that...I wonder if its my projection...I totally just lost it...It's deffinately a catylist to move some emotions.

  • Thinking music..........

  • I love love love this song. Nice video and thank you

  • the best between 0:00 and 7:28 :)

  • hahhaah i agree

  • Eargasm.

  • This video couldn't be more well matched to the music! And that's a tall order you've filled. Keep making more please

  • Beautiful video -- it goes perfectly with the song.

    Thank you for posting it.

  • alot of their slower songs including this have a way of breaking u down emotionally

    3:29 is amazing

  • siii precioso!!! :) 3:29

  • I really love it. 'Nuff said.

  • wow, that was so funny

    should go to ComedyCentral and do some tryouts for professional comedian

    ;-)

  • this makes me accept death

    PERFECT

  • So this is Iceland, right?  Beautiful place it seems, wherever it is.

  • Hehe.. the video looks like it was shot in the Netherlands!

  • no no, THIS is why mum's go to iceland

  • U mind rephrasing that?

  • sigur ros are an icelandic band. There's an advert on telly for theshop Iceland wth the rather annoying catchphrase of "thas why mums go to iceland".........but i think sigur ros would be a pretty good reason to go to iceland.........and if you dont get the rest then....oh dear.....

    but i hope that helped *patronising pat*

  • Sorry I didn't realise. I tend to try and wipe out all memory of adverts from my mind. I hate them all.

  • fair reason

  • Language can scream in our faces, this does not.

    Language can part, this connects.

    God is not what is not, but what is.

  • That's so shallow.

  • 8 minutes of musical brilliance from iceland's finest...:)

  • this song make me go out all my emotions....this song is a miracle!

  • ....speechless.

    truly unexplainable beauty.

    5/5.

  • Beautiful video, beautiful song.

    I'd never really listened to it until one day a few months ago, while I was on break at work. I was staring out the window, watching the rain when the song began. Around the 4:50 mark the lightning started.

    I always have that image in my head when I listen to it now. It's incredibly powerful.

  • That sounded perfect someobscurename.

  • the images are woven with this song so humbly & naturally.

    i think a huge part of the essence of Sigur Rós's creations are that they focus upon the abstract qualities that are within nature unspoiled. Sigur Rós are like children, men who have kept much alive and awake the life of the child that resides in us all, no matter our age in numeric terms. these musicians are not just making beautiful musique, but encouraging us all to be beautiful, to ourselves & to others.

    taak for sharing

  • I love 777elfe777's way of putting it - which expresses my own thoughts and feelings.

    And takk again to Basketballerke, for another excellent video.

    ("takk" = thanks!)

  • It reminds me to some days whene i was used to listen sigur ròs while running in the park here in Rome-...i love sigur ròs...

  • this song suits being put to the film milo and otis.. when they have babies in the winter time

  • Everyday I listen to the music of Sigur Ros. Everytime I do, I think to myself; how it is possible for human beings to create something so beautiful?

    Nothing pictured in my mind in terms of images does justice to their music.

  • splendore assoluto!

  • c'è qualcuno che abbia mai ascoltato qualcosa di minimamente paragonabile? questa è musica del 3^ millennio!!!

  • i've written some comments on this video and song before, i get to watch this video every once in a while and everytime i listen to this song i feel something on my throath, this is one of the most beautiful songs ever made and even though i have all sigur ros albums and listen to them all the time i cant help feeling incredibly fine everytime i listen to one , specially "takk" and "andvari and this song together" beautiness in all its splendor !!!

  • wow i didn't know i lived in such a beautifull country! amazing video!

  • cant wait i have floor seats to see them in LA im totally going to mosh to this song!

  • I've just heard this for the first time.. god it makes me so sad though gives hope.. one of the reasons I love sigur ros so much.

    can't wait to see them in november :)

  • me fascina

  • meraviglioso

  • The climax of the song is just simply amazing.

  • I'm proud to be half icelandic :)

  • I`m proud to be polish, and can to listen Sigur Ross, most amazing music ever :)

  • Achingly beautiful music combined with a nice array of scenic views.Brilliant upload 5/5.

  • i love how this song keeps building up..

    this is my favorite on Takk, although you cant really pick a favorite.. :)

  • I LOVE THIS DAMN SONG!!

    I love sigur ros... they are the greates contemporary band!!

    such a majestic song... omg

  • To an earlier comment:

    Beautiness is not a word...Beauty, however, is.

    Anyways...

    I love this song, I've owned Takk for awhile but never noticed this song until recently. Every time I listen to Sigur Ros I find something new...It's so multi-layered. And I absolutely love Jonsi...His voice is the most beautiful voice I've ever heard.

  • so brilliant..

  • Great video, This song sounds superb on a hifi setup, with the lights off at night. Makes me weep.

  • even better bring your hifi system outside and a reclining chair and sit back drifting off into the heavens above

  • The images remind me so much of Caminho de Santiago! :D

  • this song is an expolosion of beautiness , everytime i hear it i cant help but feeling something on my throat,it's a mix of sadness and beautiness that touches the deepest part of your soul, only Sigur Ros can get there !!!

    beautiful !!!

  • og hér ert þú....

    fannst mér....

  • Que hormosa Cancion esta de Sigur Rós ....Beautiful Song ,I ♥ SigurRos

  • This song always touches my soul very deeply. A true piece of art this is!

  • i really agree with you

  • Thank you for making this. The scenery is beautiful, and I love this song dearly. For some reason, the scene at 1:56 resonates with me. I wish the audio quality were a bit better, but that's only because I hear it everyday in all its glory on my computer.

  • Beautiful Song!!

  • one of those songs that will be heard for years to come.....

    perfect vid for the song. great work *****

  • The track sure is cinematic, beautiful, and, for the most part, dreamy. The video is beautiful too.
