UNF*CKEN REAL! I've been listening to Sigur Ros for almost 10 years now and their music still hits me the EXACT same way it did when I was younger. That's a good band, that's good music, that's Sigur Ros
@seasbee Esperanto is made up Slovio is made up Na'vi is made up and there not REAL languages..... And from what i was told the people from iceland a LONG time ago used to speak English but made up there own language icelandic ( could be wrong but i dont care )
@ggolfer555 They sing in Icelandic most of the time. Some songs feature nonesense, but it's hardly gibberish. They combine sounds in the Icelandic tongue to produce vocal lines with added emotion. Basically they couldn't find words that fit the emotions perfectly, so they made them.

Of course, our extensive burning of fossil fuels is likewise changing carbon isotope ratios, but more evenly and in a way that's easier to screen out.
Here are some lyrics to this song I made about 4 years ago. I call it, "Orange Juice." Your eyes alone fall...rpt 2x your eyes oh noo. Your eyes on my phone rpt 2x Orange juice, orange juice, oh liar. Rpt Wooohooooohooo ooowhoooo. Your eyes on my phone rpt 2x orange juice, orange juice, oh lie, orange juice, orange juice, oh lie. You'll sigh why. Musical interlude...orange juice, orange juice, oh lie, orange juice, orange juice, oh lie, orange juice, orange juice, oh lie, etc. etc.
So are all of these explosions real? Who makes them? I mean I know about Hiroshima and Nagasaki and everything. But watching this video it feels like governments sets these things off all the time out in the oceans.
@jockejocke1 These are almost all (actually, I think they all are) American nuclear weapons tests. Yes, we did a ton of them. No, we don't do them any more. The US has conducted 1054 nuclear tests and two nuclear attacks. Between the US and the Soviet Union (and to a lesser extent, others), our nuclear testing has been so significant that carbon dating objects from after the 1950s is not and will not be reliable for future societies; we've unevenly shifted the atmospheric ratios of carbon.
One of my dearest friends gave me a link for this song and i love it since. Now he's not between us anymore, but the song always makes me remember his face. May you rest in peace Kristian <3
A little known fact is that the Japanese were 8 days behind the United States on delivering a Nuclear Bomb. Coupled the atrocities that they have committed over the centuries on other nations, secures the gooks as an evil that needs to be abolished. I do not care what slant eye country you are from, you need to die! China is 2 billion people and out of control, the United States needs to instigate operation PICWOUND.... Population In Control With Offensive Use of Nuclear Devices.. See you gooks
@tuffyterf "Little known" because it's about as close to reality as "The Japanese were 8 days from summoning the Kraken to sink the US fleet". The Japanese weren't even remotely close to atomic weaponry. They had a bioweapons program that they were hoping to use as a counter to the US, but even that was nowhere near a level where it could have been effective.
And, FYI, the Japanese and Chinese were enemies in WWII.
I have seen a number of these kinds of films. This is one of the better ones only because its maker used clear and obviously restored clips to make it with. Well done.
This song always makes me see beautiful northern lights in timescape in my mind.. In my opinion, this song should be presented along with something as beautiful as northern lights. I guess its not a official vid, but tho, its powerful!
Sigur Rós is simply the greatest group of ARTISTS i've ever seen and heard in my so far short lifetime of 15 years. I'm aware of Andy Warhol/Rob Mapplethorpe and so on.. But Sigur Rós is way above them. This audio is art, people.
Y'know, I remember hearing this song on a bootleg 11 years ago, years and years before an official version was ever recorded. Probably a few thousand people in the entire world, at most, had ever heard it then, given that it had only been performed in public once and sigur ros hadn't even released agaetis byrjun and become well-known outside of iceland yet. was always my fave song of theirs. amazing that an official version has 1,000,000+ hits on youtube now.
@XOFrankieroXO Fuck you. Debates are the best asshole. Why don't you shut up and enjoy the video? Your probably too busy jerking off to Lady GaGa to find the time to silence yourself.

@edsterling0 Grats for taking someone elses quote "Zuzia" and posting it without giving them any recognition even 73 likes later no mention of it not being yours or the original publisher Good JOB douche
"And when you hear of wars, and rumors of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must and need be"
@Foece24 thanks for telling me who said this,i didn´t know who said it i just read it on a riot sign pictures, and i did not know this had so many likes, there is no notice for youtube users when someone likes your comment, this is no facebook, and thabk you again, i hope you have great day.
@gloinstrong maybe it ended the WW2 but in those places there are still living and born persons with side effects of the bombing, so i hope you never have to live those kind of malformations. and i am no hippie, but thank you for your comment
@gloinstrong Read the "Strategic Bombing Survey (Pacific War)" performed by the United States Air Force after WWII. They determined that Japan would have surrendered not long after then with or without the atomic bombs; the bombs just moved the date up a few months. The Japanese political leadership was already splintering and had been desperately trying to find a way out of the war.
@SjamanFunk so? what's your point, this is not my quote, i read it in a riot sign cartel carried by a woman, that is because i used the " __" things. truth is nuclear and atomic power should never be used, "Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary." -Mahatma Ghandi.
@edsterling0 ok..i just ment that its naive to believe that all conflicts can be solved by dialogue and peace talks....like someone wrote in a another comment here, If u want peace, prepear for war.. much truth in that..sadly enough...soon will Iran have the big bomb...try peace talking with those guys.....
@SjamanFunk I know this was between you and someone else, but I'll pick up where his argument broke down... the need for violence lies in the objectives of the opposing parties. I think the issue is that often violent war erupts despite it being possible to obtain peace through peaceful measures. I do agree with the principle that sometimes war is necessary (WWII) but some are simply not and we fall back on it far too much as superpowers. How can we expect Iran not to act like we have?
When they say the explosion, those in the plains dropping them cheered. What they did to Japan...all those innocent men, woman and children...I don't care if they 'helped' us win the war against Germany, I will never forgive america for doing that...
@DarkeLandsTOTW Me too! Especially after I know now about Japanese and their culture. But you know the firebombing of Okinawa, Tokyo and others killed many more that both bombs combined. And of course since all the men where fighting elsewhere that left mostly women and children and elderly taking the brunt. Yeah I especially am not proud of American history at that time. I'm glad I'm not American.
@DarkeLandsTOTW I'm an American, and I think it was unforgiveable, too. When you read the history, there was a huge split in the US government over how to use the bombs. Almost all of the scientists making them, plus the undersecretary of the navy, and several other high ranking figures, wanted the bombs simply to be used as a demonstration. The army, however, wanted to cause as much devastation as possible; they even ruled out places that they themselves considered better military (more)
@DarkeLandsTOTW (cont'd)...targets because they wouldn't be visible enough or kill enough. Truman himself seems really conflicted, and at times, confused. He wrote in his diary that it would be reprehensible and make us like the Japanese if our weapons were used in a way that killed innocent women and children. Yet he then authorized the use against Hiroshima and Nagasaki. But then in his first speech afterward, he said we bombed "Hiroshoma, a military base," as if he didnt know it was a city.
@KarenRei Bombing in any sense is regrettable, but surely you recognize that without those bombs, Japan would have continued to attack us, and we would have sent ground invasions and more air raids that would have completely destroyed Japan.
@drjx93 This notion originated as propaganda pushed as a post-facto justification of the bombing. The reality at the time, as known and widely discussed by US government officials, was that Japan was desperately seeking an exit from the battlefield. The US was aware of an ongoing power struggle within the Japanese government, and the Japanese government had already begun (indirectly) sending out feelers for conditional surrender. Bombs or not, the days of the Pacific theatre were numbered.
@drjx93 (cont'd) Within the US government, mind you, the decision was never "to bomb or not to bomb". It was "how to use the bombs". One faction wanted the bombs to be used as a *demonstration*. They wanted to let the Japanese know that they were about to witness something incredible, where and when, and deploy it. Another faction wanted to use the bombs, but only against military assets. The most hawkish faction, however, wanted to use them for "shock and awe".
@drjx93 (cont'd 2) The Undersec. of the Navy, Ralph Bard, was the most notable "Demonstration" advocate. He had the backing of most bomb scientists. In a vote, 2/3rds of the scientists wanted the US to bomb either a military objective or an uninhabited island. Of the remaining third, half wanted the US not to bomb anything. Only 1/6th of the scientists supported attacking cities. Bard's main foe was Stimson, the Secretary of War and Truman confidant.
@drjx93 (cont'd 3) Stimson openly admitted that this wasn't just about Japan; he stated that he hoped a horrifying bombing would let us "get less barbarous relations with the Russians." Ultimately, Stimson's side got the go-ahead. The targeting committee then specifically ruled out areas which didn't have enough civilians in visible enough locations.
After the war, the military's Strategic Bombing Survey (google it) concluded that the atomic bombings were completely unnecessary to end the war.
@KarenRei Well, you seem to be well voiced in this matter. xD. I was not aware that they were desperately seeking a way out. It didn't seem that way at all when we discussed the atomic bombings in class, either. I suppose i'll have to look more into the issue.
@drjx93 if you want to learn about the effects of the bombs we dropped "White Light, Black Rain" is a great documentary done by the Japanese. And the whole thing is on you tube. /watch?v=PqEcJZ43Tik

@jericho447 of course everyone should go the "diplomatic route" but not if it is going on deaf ears and meanwhile people are dying.

@gloinstrong maybe it ended the WW2 but in those places there are still living and born persons with side effects of the bombing, so i hope you never have to live those kind of malformations. and i am no hippie, but thank you for your comment

@gloinstrong Read the "Strategic Bombing Survey (Pacific War)" performed by the United States Air Force after WWII. They determined that Japan would have surrendered not long after then with or without the atomic bombs; the bombs just moved the date up a few months. The Japanese political leadership was already splintering and had been desperately trying to find a way out of the war.

@SjamanFunk so? what's your point, this is not my quote, i read it in a riot sign cartel carried by a woman, that is because i used the " __" things. truth is nuclear and atomic power should never be used, "Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary." -Mahatma Ghandi.

@SjamanFunk I know this was between you and someone else, but I'll pick up where his argument broke down... the need for violence lies in the objectives of the opposing parties. I think the issue is that often violent war erupts despite it being possible to obtain peace through peaceful measures. I do agree with the principle that sometimes war is necessary (WWII) but some are simply not and we fall back on it far too much as superpowers. How can we expect Iran not to act like we have?

@DarkeLandsTOTW Me too! Especially after I know now about Japanese and their culture. But you know the firebombing of Okinawa, Tokyo and others killed many more that both bombs combined. And of course since all the men where fighting elsewhere that left mostly women and children and elderly taking the brunt. Yeah I especially am not proud of American history at that time. I'm glad I'm not American.

@DarkeLandsTOTW I'm an American, and I think it was unforgiveable, too. When you read the history, there was a huge split in the US government over how to use the bombs. Almost all of the scientists making them, plus the undersecretary of the navy, and several other high ranking figures, wanted the bombs simply to be used as a demonstration. The army, however, wanted to cause as much devastation as possible; they even ruled out places that they themselves considered better military (more)
KarenRei 7 months ago
@DarkeLandsTOTW (cont'd)...targets because they wouldn't be visible enough or kill enough. Truman himself seems really conflicted, and at times, confused. He wrote in his diary that it would be reprehensible and make us like the Japanese if our weapons were used in a way that killed innocent women and children. Yet he then authorized the use against Hiroshima and Nagasaki. But then in his first speech afterward, he said we bombed "Hiroshoma, a military base," as if he didnt know it was a city.

@KarenRei Bombing in any sense is regrettable, but surely you recognize that without those bombs, Japan would have continued to attack us, and we would have sent ground invasions and more air raids that would have completely destroyed Japan.
drjx93 7 months ago
@drjx93 This notion originated as propaganda pushed as a post-facto justification of the bombing. The reality at the time, as known and widely discussed by US government officials, was that Japan was desperately seeking an exit from the battlefield. The US was aware of an ongoing power struggle within the Japanese government, and the Japanese government had already begun (indirectly) sending out feelers for conditional surrender. Bombs or not, the days of the Pacific theatre were numbered.
KarenRei 7 months ago
@drjx93 (cont'd) Within the US government, mind you, the decision was never "to bomb or not to bomb". It was "how to use the bombs". One faction wanted the bombs to be used as a *demonstration*. They wanted to let the Japanese know that they were about to witness something incredible, where and when, and deploy it. Another faction wanted to use the bombs, but only against military assets. The most hawkish faction, however, wanted to use them for "shock and awe".
KarenRei 7 months ago
@drjx93 (cont'd 2) The Undersec. of the Navy, Ralph Bard, was the most notable "Demonstration" advocate. He had the backing of most bomb scientists. In a vote, 2/3rds of the scientists wanted the US to bomb either a military objective or an uninhabited island. Of the remaining third, half wanted the US not to bomb anything. Only 1/6th of the scientists supported attacking cities. Bard's main foe was Stimson, the Secretary of War and Truman confidant.
KarenRei 7 months ago
@drjx93 (cont'd 3) Stimson openly admitted that this wasn't just about Japan; he stated that he hoped a horrifying bombing would let us "get less barbarous relations with the Russians." Ultimately, Stimson's side got the go-ahead. The targeting committee then specifically ruled out areas which didn't have enough civilians in visible enough locations.
After the war, the military's Strategic Bombing Survey (google it) concluded that the atomic bombings were completely unnecessary to end the war.
KarenRei 7 months ago
@KarenRei Well, you seem to be well voiced in this matter. xD. I was not aware that they were desperately seeking a way out. It didn't seem that way at all when we discussed the atomic bombings in class, either. I suppose i'll have to look more into the issue.

@drjx93 if you want to learn about the effects of the bombs we dropped "White Light, Black Rain" is a great documentary done by the Japanese. And the whole thing is on you tube. /watch?v=PqEcJZ43Tik
