This is how I interpreted the video. He is tortured by his insecurities (the case), but the only thing he can do is strike at them (notice his facial expression while he hits it). He is trapped in a dark room at first keeping all of his emotions (the birds) inside with him. He starts telling himself, "we can do anything," in order to try to give himself some courage. He starts letting out his emotions through music (releasing himself and the birds). He finally throws his troubles out to sea.
I sincerely hope if you've only heard this on the ford commercial you put forth the effort to go enlighten yourself and listen to the entire album and sigur ros
This song makes me happy when I'm in a bad mood(:. oh and in some parts of the song he has like a really hot nevershoutnever kind of voice and other times he doesn't. lol either way this is awesome! I watched the ford commercial and went crazy to try and find this song!
@niloc87 if you like it, does it really matter where you heard it? I would think that anywhere you hear it, you like it and it compels you to become interested in the music further, that's good, right? I'd think the performer would consider that ok....
The words aren't random at all... check out the lyrics. Oh and I discovered Jonsi on the Ford commercial and I keep telling myself... How did I miss this truly remarkable artist???
His last concert in support of this album was in Iceland and an experience I'll never ever forget! I'm proud to be an Icelander like Jónsi. What a phenomenon this man is. A true artist in every possible way. GO DO MORE JÓNSI..!
@emily4264 These rocks are in south Iceland near the town of Vík, where the wonderful black beaches are. The place itself is called Reynishverfi and I recommend it wholeheartedly :)
it doesn't make u a bad person or an idiot 2 hear this song on a tv ad first. i did. and everytime it comes on i turn up the tv because its a great form of music. exploring music means u look it up because of everywhere and anywhere u hear it first.
this song really makes you sit there and just wanna stomp a whole in the floor when the base line comes up, then spin around in circles and fall out on a field and just look at the sky, it makes you smile and apreciat the small things...
this is not at all what I thought the video would look like. I was expecting one of those videos where the camera slowly pans through a white house with stuff going on, maybe some time-lapse video action... idunno, maybe all the thousands of movies like that have broken me
the good side is trapped... the white jonsi... the dark one... has the key in a box and he just goes and throughs it away... hmmm... anyone notice it sounds like the chirping in the beginning is saying "Cody"?
I first heard of Jonsi from the song in the movie "how to train your dragon"'s credits, and now he's getting more popular. really good music, although its kinda repetitive
@TheBeatlesToday I heard this through exploring for music, not some stupid Ford commercial. I would bet you $1000 that Jon wouldn't care about receiving a big paycheck from some huge corporation to use his music in a car commercial. Watch the Sigur Ros concert DVD "Heima". It talks about how they are more focused on music more then money or popularity.
@pritulaag Please look at the comment I made to kylewilson22 a few comments down. I had heard "Go Do" in the Ford ad recently--but it was not the first time I'd heard it--and I decided to post that comment to parody all those YouTubers who write stuff like "thumbz up if u saw dis in da tv ad!!!"
@pritulaag ur stupid he didn't say that he heard it there first... he just said he looke dup... which i did the same cause i was friggin amazed, surprised and happy. and shutup u radical... god damn it.
