  • @kunyasobe Jónsi says in an interview on the same DVD, that these few 'sadder' songs can be about people not wanting you to chase your dreams, or something along those lines. It looks like the wolf is stopping the deer from what it wants to do. The deer turns around and fights the wolf, and it looks like it wins. I see it as a sort of "Chase your dreams, and don't let anyone stop you from achieving whatever you wish to achieve." I could be wrong, this is just my opinion.

  • I can't see the 'dislikes'

    ;-)

  • @NGC3370JT I'm taking this from a post on another forum: "i think jónsi created a new word here, from the word "kolniðamyrkur" which means "pitch black darkness". he took the "kolniða-" (pitch black) prefix and made the noun "kolniður" so it stands on its own as pitch black anything." -bjossi, the jonsi forum.

    ... just as an idea :D

  • lovely

  • What's a perfect song ~

    It's make me silent & think of everything and nothing

    STRANGE feeling deep inside of me

    See my self alone and need to be with the moon

    Wanna drop my tears for all the things in my LIFE

    If all that mean something

    IT'S MEAN THE SONG SO POIGNANT & GO THROUGH THE HEART & MIND

    For that i called it perfect ~

  • this is simply amazing! the graphics are terrifc and i would LOVE to see this guy in concert!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK JONSI!!!:D

  • This made me cry

  • What a visual...! <333

  • @NeonFoxLetsPlays Kolniður is for sure a real word. There is no accurate meaning in english simply. There are translations to other languages in scandinavia, such as Swedish, my native language. It's called "Kolsvart" in Swedish, so I can for sure guarantee you it's real. It's just the darkest of pitch black.

  • @NGC3370JT well i'm still learning Icelandic. i know Kolniður isn't technically a real word but "endless darkness' is about as close as you will get to the real meaning.

  • @NeonFoxLetsPlays You got it almost right! It translates to: "Endless darkness and darkness outside, but inside of me a storm is occuring. Endless darkness and dark ink drips and I try and/to burn the boat's husks." Just minor details! Kolniður doesnt translate to "endless darkness" really, but it's the closest translation. Kolniður is the darkest of pitch black coal. Kind of. Source: I speak Icelandic :)

  • this animation is just, and the music
