These guys are so modest. I wonder if they have any idea of how special they are?!

to see a sigur ros concert is so beautiful.

to see all the kids sitting and thinking about this music is so powerful to see.

sure, it's powerful to see kids moshing around and going crazy, but the music is so captivating.

sigur ros is so beautiful and inspiring.

I would have to say yes. I have seen them live and they are so amazing. It Gave me goosebumps and made me tear up. I saw them at Choachella Music Festival a few years back and it was awe inspiring to see how they stopped people in there tracks. people would be walking across the lawn and hear them and just have to stop and watch... even all the drunks in the beer garden.

I love the way Orri says the word "work." The Icelandic accent is so nice to listen to.
