That last bit where Verity is recounting her experience of watching Jonsi perform, you can see how visibly moved she is. It wouldn't surprise me if she began crying after the take was done. Jonsi transforms into something altogether different while he's performing as opposed to when he's being interviewed. It's like he can simply be himself and do what he was put on this earth to do....comfortably. Interviewing is not comfortable for him.

I totally agree, I cried nonstop seeing them live, his voice is unreal. so beautiful

Iceland is the happiest nation in the world because they have Sigur Rós to claim as their own! :)

I love Jonsi with all my heart but he's not the only member of the band, don't get me wrong, he's amazing but ALL of them are amazing. Kjarri sometimes makes me cry when he plays the piano.
