smth interesting
I love this song.
1997?? Wow, that's crazy, this song would fit right in with a 2010 or 2020 release.
This group reminds me of the Flaming Lips. In a good way...
Looking forward to seeing them on their NA tour this summer. Saw my first show since 2019 over the weekend. It was such joy to see live music again.
Not sure how anyone can dislike Sigur Ros. Just beautiful!
Rite frum the hart!
might be a nice song to play when your dog just died,.
GOOD TUNE!! I never heard of them before. Thank You RP!
Magnificent.
Doesn't this sound a lot like the Flaming Lips?
Bill just pronounced Sigur Rós as Sigure Rose. I'm nitpicking here so don't take it too serious but despite the ' on the 'o', the o in Rós is pronounced like boss.

not too sure how to describe this music and what it does to me so I will try:. I somehow feel like A10 year old boy again right where I'm not sure if Santa is real.
Viva....Iceland! Unique kind of sound! Loving it1
This sounds like a feral cat me-OWW-ringgg! at 2AM.
...which is fine...

I don't think this is Icelandic. It's pretty well documented that Sigur Ros use a made-up "language" which they use strictly for vocal tonality. Though I could be wrong for this particular song since I wouldn't know real Icelandic if I heard it.
I tend to agree but also don't know for sure. These lyrics do not translate from Icelandic using Google Translate.
Any native Icelanders on the forum can address this?
Are they singing in Icelandic?

Without a doubt, one of the best bands I've ever heard. Every time I listen to their music I cry. Their ability to take me to a different place and reveal previously undiscovered parts of myself is unmatched. I've often set an album of theirs to play and have only realized my reverie a good while later. Glad to see them played here. Thank you Bill!

Actually, the reason why overnight rice overnight works so well is because it attracts highly skilled Asian electronic workers who fix the phone while you're asleep

I recently learned putting your phone in rice to try to dry it after it gets wet is pointless.

Well, let's see what's on SOMA.FM this morning.
Your ice on my spork. Or maybe "You're ice on my spork", which would change things a bit.
I hear it as 'your eyes are mindful' (being aware and openly soulful). Rather nice :)

Not even everyone's cup of tea and this is quite the deep end to be dropped into. I'm a big fan of Sigur Ros and their live shows are pure fantasy. For an easier entry point, try the song Glosoli or the album Takk.
Also, if you're a fan of the movie The Life Aquatic, I defy you not to well up when Bill Murray finally finds his leopard shark. The music in this scene is Staralfur by Sigur Ros.
Lastly, Heima is a beautiful journal by the band and a love letter to the dramatic and historical gem that is Iceland.

No PSD on mobile (or for this song I like to think of it more as PTSD) so time to see what SOMA is playing this afternoon.
Thought this was My Morning Jacket!
This might be a good cinematic rock song if they ever finished lyrics for it. Sorry, but "Hopelandic" is the same as Lorem Ipsum for songwriters who can't finish a song. Lots of songwriters use something similar. Yesterday started as "Scrambled Eggs" and that sort of thing. Most of it doesn't get recorded that way. Weak. Lots of negative comments going back to 2011, but it keeps getting played. When were these playlists created? Hello, Autopilot?
I really wish people wouldn't strangle cats on the radio. It's distressing.

I really love Sigur Ros. I don't own any of their music, but I've liked everything I've ever heard from them (which has been almost exclusively on RP). Their sound is unique and transcendent. And I LOVED the documentary Heima. If you ever get a chance to see it, DO! Visually and aurally gorgeous.
Just excellent, no need to analyse. If it hits the spot, enjoy, if not, move on.

I generally like the type of music Sigur Ros puts out. However, these guys were never my thing. I don't know why... maybe of the vocals that say nothing? :-/
I saw a 2 part documentary on their tour after first international fame, very interesting they played small towns all over iceland even in bars but mostly outdoor events. Didn't finish the 2nd part, they were going into a long climax and the film cutting was flashing way too many quick shots and would have caused a seizure in most people .

I like this song, and this band, just fine. They won me over when I happened to catch their documentary "Heima" in gorgeous hi-def. Absolutely transporting. Perfect combination of sound + visual.
(P.S. Anyone who criticizes them for singing in their native language can kiss my ass.)

Yes, the guy sings very well...for a cat. One that's coming off a catnip/cough syrup high. Maybe he's an absolute stud in Icelandic but for all I know the band's lyrics are devoted to the high-speed thrills, chills and spills of stamp-collecting.
A little of this band goes a long, long way.

SIgor Ros is from Iceland, and they sing in Icelandic, and another language they created. The bass player plays with a bow, to create some incredible, uh, noise. One of my absolute favorite bands. Hope you like them, and thanks Bill for giving them a play, although, not enough IMHO

What a treat! I was introduced to Sigur Ros a few years ago, and am super happy I was. Great tunes to work to.

Bah!
Good God that was horrible
Just feed the damn cat already..
love love love. It's hard to drop bombs on ther countries if you saturate yourself in the beauty of music like this! Wish the higher ups were tuning in!
I can't get into this band when the lead singer sounds like Kermit the Frog. I just can't.
Hearing songs like this is what makes me keep listening to RP. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Perfect music for a snowy night in NJ.
