Sigur Ros (as a team of genuises) deserves a noble prize. This is what Kant called a "genius". They reach deep within our passion and enlightens us, and no one can explain why. Just purely amazing.

Although it could be said for most songs by both these artist... this and "I Remember" live By Damien Rice with Lisa Hannigan in my opinion are two of the absolute greatest live performances of modern music.

If there were to be any sound left our species to float amongst the cosmos as our legacy to universe let it be their sound, it truly speaks for what we humans are capable of if we dig deep within our hearts and minds.

I'm still devastated that I missed that concert. I had to work that day at a job that I hated, and I could only hear the music and cheering in a distance when I went outside for a cigarette. I smoked A LOT that day!
