You tried everything
Yes, a thousand times
Experienced enough
Been through enough
But you it was who let everything
Into my heart
And it was you who once again
Awoke my spirit
I parted, you parted
You stir up
Emotions
In a blender
Everything in disarray
But it was you who was always
There for me
It was you who never judged
My true friend
I parted, you parted
(hopelandic)
You sail on rivers
With an old oar
Leaking badly
You swim to shore
Pushed the waves away
But to no avail
You float on the sea
Sleep on the surface
Light through the fog
(hopelandic)

Sigur Rós è un gruppo musicale islandese di genere post-rock, formatosi a Reykjavík nel 1994. Il nome deriva dalla parola islandese per 'victory rose', che riflette la visione poetica e malinconica dell'artista. La formazione originale comprendeva Jónsi Birgisson (voce, chitarra), Georg Hólm (chitarra), Águst Hlöðversson (basso) e Orri Páll Dýrason (batteria). Nel corso degli anni, la band ha collaborato con numerosi artisti, tra cui il compositore islandese Hildur Guðnadóttir. Sigur Rós è noto per i suoi arrangiamenti orchestrali, le melodie eteree e l'uso di strumenti inusuali come il piano a coda e il violino. Il loro sound è spesso descritto come 'atmosferico', 'malinconico' e 'visionario'. Tra i brani più rappresentativi figurano 'Hoppípolla', 'Svefn-g-englar' e 'Glósóli'. L'album 'Takk...' del 2005 ha raggiunto un grande successo internazionale, consolidando la posizione della band come uno dei gruppi post-rock più influenti di tutti i tempi.
