Jónsi - Icicle Sleeve (Live at 3 Mills Studio)

Jónsi plays 'Icicle Sleeve' during the Dress Rehearsal Party in London.

==LYRICS==

There's a rainbow on your red bicycle
And I see it in your eyes
You wipe it all away with your icicle sleeves
And you fold it twice

Your eyes : In the middle of the road
Your eyes : It's the same story

I see they're drowning now
I see they're all done
I see they're drowning now
You see there are enough tears

You fall from a stone and I kiss ripe lips
And I follow you home
You wipe tears away with your icicle sleeves
And I say good night

Your eyes : They're closing in the night
Your eyes : It's the same story

I see they're drowning now
I see they're all done
I see they're drowning now
You see there are enough tears

I wonder if you are the same without me
I wonder if you are alive since they said they drowned the sound

You should go and shout it out
You should go and change their views

You should go and shout it out
You should go and change their views

You should go and change their views

It is refreshing to hear Jonsi sound like a rock singer... at least this song has something in common with rock songs of the past. Most of his work sounds so alen it might well have come from another planet... not that I am complaining, I love it! But at least this song gives you a clue of where Jonsi came from, what kind of music he cut his teeth on, and how he evolved on his remarkable journey. That journey is only just beginning I am sure.
