I've been to Iceland once, I never left the airport but the brief views I had of that completely sweeping June morning will always stay with me. This is such beautiful music.
:( i've listened to this song too much and so it doesnt have that emotional effect on me anymore! really gutted my mind wont let me feel the music!!!!
2 people weren't smart enough to understand the meaning of the song and decided to be a hater instead of trying to do some learning without using Google because they are nothing but big fat lazy boobs.
Why do we have to grow up? Why can't we stay children forever, keeping curiousity, imagination and sensitivity within the person we are...? Why can't we have mud or pillow fights instead of blood and murder? Why don't we longer appreciate the sun, the stars, wind and trees, why do we forget who we are?
such a good video !think life should be just laughings , frisndship,love and games! why we dont keep our children soul ? the person with power in the society manipulated us since always. We have lost a big part of the sens of our life here! What a shame! If u are reading this :built your beautiful world as long as you can !!!!
I'm from Russia. Though i do not know Icelandic, but i really like the cheerful and positive attitude in this song. When i am sad, i include this song and i alwais uplifting.
I heard this song in a promo on Discovery Channel and Discovery World.
Though i cant understand the words, the music speaks for itself, but watching the vid it doesnt matter if you can understand it, coz the message is very very clear.
Enjoy the live you have, no matter what age or state your body is in.
In other words, never ever let the child inside you die!
A perfect message for the world of today!
Shivers run down my spine when i hear the piano and strings set in.
@Klittoo1 i just heard it on discovery myself and jumped to youtube to signal that:) so weird, huh, cause in ads you hear all upcoming hits and known music... so glad that they chose this song!
This song's downright beautiful and touching. Everytime I listen to this, it constantly sends chills down my spine it's just indescribable!
The message of the song judging by the video is to appreciate life and youth. Cherish those happy moments we've had and don't take life for granted as it won't last too long. Life's beautiful. I'm not ashame of saying this under Youtube's comment box.
Start appreciating your life if you haven't and overlook the negative things.
@bboyhellaxis I COMPLETELY agree good sir, It is a truly beautiful piece of music!, I just posted an FB status saying
'in the downfall of metal music, I discovered a whole new world of music, it's a beautiful place where talent is everywhere and is amazing in the hands of who possess it.'
And Sigur Ros certainly have a place in that statement.
I'll second that, great song to remind us all of Sir Bobby the gentleman legend, will there ever be a more likeable, dedicated hero in the world of football again?
this song just completely opens up my heart, makes me smile and cry each time i hear it, its beautiful. it makes me feel that the world is my oyster, anything is possible
A few a their videos are random, and i dont think this video matches the superiour, emphasis and the dramatic side of the music, i love the song though, cant stop listening to it
Big Macs are shit. Anything is better than a Big mac, i bet you are some fat bastard that doesn't know how to say NO when presented with food. What a shame. =D
yes this is a lovely song but it hardly "the greatest song ever". its not greatest they've done. in fact its not even the greatest song on takk- which is, by the way, a brilliant album.
Great video.
