been making music for twenty years, i have never come even remotely close to making anything as beautiful as sigur ros. there is a magik here that speaks to my whole soul. the girl i love most in the world used to lay next to me and listen to this, it took me two years to be able to listen to it by myself again once she left. floods of tears is an under statement, but once i got through it once, now i can feel the peace again when i listen to it. i'm 41 now, with a few too many heartbreaks to ever want to try again, i'm really glad i have found a peace with being by myself again, this music saved me from complete darkness, and i feel so relieved to never have to fix my heart again and just enjoy a quiet life. thanks sigur ros !
I come here every time I listen to this album just to read the comments. It's so beautiful to see how Sigur Rós connect and inspire so many people around the world! Cheers from Brazil
