Thanks for the translation! Great video. Do you happen to know what words are being sung during the chorus immediately after "Vid Spilum" (We Played)? My nieces and nephews sing this part at the top of their lungs, and since they don't know any Icelandic, they sing "Is this your crazy Uncle?". I've always wondered what was being sung there.
@SteveWeeksMusic omg, that made me laugh so good! 'Is this your crazy uncle?' fits so beautifully! The lyrics there are whatever fits for you...or your niecling's and nephloid's...perception. It's referred to as Vonlenska or Hopelandic and it is a form of ululation or nonsense syllables. Let them sing :)
THANK YOU! I was fortunate to experience Sigur Rós with Amiina at the Beacon Theater in New York and at the Orpheum here in Boston. Perhaps one day in Iceland.....
