The Beetlejuice crowd will be rolling through now lol. Vanilla sky originally brought me here. It was during a time when i was lucid dreaming a lot and was 3 months sober. I ended up relapsing after that time and thats the last memory i have of myself being me. I developed a pretty gnarly kind of ocd after called sensorimotor ocd and some chronic pain. When i heard this song it brought me back to that time. That was back in 2011. Got sober in 2012 and I have a 6 year old daughter now and a wife. I still have my mental issues, but i live with it. Gid bless all
The people on 1:58 are actually married. They lived a few houses from where i worked here in Iceland. They are truly the most kind and happy people i have ever known. It was amazing to see how little they differ from any of us "normal" people. Spread the love !
Oh, they differ! I'm normal/ordinary, and from the first I saw this magnificent video I KNEW they had an ethereal connection (Oxford: extremely delicate and light in a way that seems too perfect for this world).
I discovered this song on the Vanilla Sky soundtrack 17 years ago. I have been playing this song for my special needs daughter every night as part of our bedtime routine since she was born six years ago. This song is on a short playlist of bedtime songs and although we don’t understand they lyrics she hums herself to sleep to it every time. I just now looked for the video for it for the first time ever. There is really nothing I can say about the way I feel right now except serendipitous.

That beats what my Dad used to sing to me. He used to sing "A very fine BM, a very fine BM, hi-ho the dairy-O, a very fine BM." And I loved it! Yup, we were a sick bunch.
My wife's just given birth to our son, and there's an ocean separating us. I'm staring at the pictures of her clutching him so close wishing hard that I were there with them, listening to this song with tears that, thank God, they're ok, and I'll have them in my arms soon.
In a world too often filled with snarky remarks and genuine ignorance this comment section is a blessing. It is reassuring to read so many kind words that show the depth of human compassion and respect.
Here in Mexico, in Veracruz, there are big stoned head sculptures that belonged to the ancient civilization the Olmecas, some belive they where made to venerate important rulers, moreover they are also called baby faces due to their resemblance to a baby and it is belived that they where actually made to venerate people with Down Syndrome, since Olmecas considered people with down syndrome to be sacred and they belived that nature itself choose them and made them unique among other individuals.
@Tim Taylor since Olmecas considered people with down syndrome to be sacred and they belived that nature itself choose them and made them unique among other individuals.
This is probably the most beautiful comment section I’ve ever read. I just want to come on here and say this song changed my life when I was 13 years old. I’m 25 now, I was really going through a rough time at 13. I use to listen to this with my headphones and feel better instantly, like I wasn’t in my body and I was connected to something much greater than anything I could imagine. Looking back and thinking of it makes tears come to my eyes.
i also discovered this at 13 thanks to a movie called beautiful boy . I’m now 19 and it’s still the only thing helping me through tough times …. it’s crazy to see how similar the human experience can be and how much one song can help numerous people!!
Remember this from back in the days on MTV.. (When they broadcasting music instead of that SEWER TELEVISION from nowadays!) I was 14 at the time. And this made me cry a lil bit.. 🙄
to the person who says these people are being exploited: they are part of a dance group, and they also happen to have down syndrome. they agreed to be in, and were paid to be in, this video. and proud.
My little brother has Down Syndrome.. he is the most precious, joyful human being I've ever been lucky enough to know, I love and miss my little buddy so bad, this video always reduces me to silent tears and sniffles.
I watched this video during an extreme bout of self loathing and mental illness, while on LSD, and it taught me to love myself in a way that changed the course of the rest of my life
Something happened to similar (without the LSD, but plenty of alcohol). But it was ages before this song. My song is The Rain Song by Led Zeppelin. Even to this day I feel it's my life's theme song (the lyrics are a mystery to me, but they can't be separated from the whole of the song). I want it played during my funeral, and at the spreading of my ashes on the Ohio River.
That's a very nice story, it can only take a moment of surrender. I had one sad song that led me to get in touch with a life's sadness due to a break up and not being able to run away anymore. It was Dustin Tebbut- the breach. It kept coming on the radio and it hurt to listen to but a deeper intelligence for once in my life said STAY, leave it on.
rain I was looking for u. Ive known this song for a long time but never knew the title just that it was Sigur Ros so I could never find it. And youtube kept spamming me with the trailer. Mystery solved after so many years.
One good thing about seeing the Beetlejuice sequel, is that it told me who sang this song. I'd been wondering about it for over a decade. I first heard it on the radio show, "Big Sonic Chill" in the mid-2000s.
People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway. If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyways.What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway. If you find serenity,happiness, and joy in the simple things, some may think you're simple minded. Be happy anyways.The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway. In the end, it was between you and God. It was never between you and them anyways.
God will bless in this life and in the coming to those who are good and faithfull in the little things.. even people dont respect it God will respect it..
This is the most beautiful piece of art i've seen in my life! since the first time i heard it on french radio nova i'm captured by your music! i worked with down syndrome kids and always felt that we should learn from them,their happiness for simple things we forgot long time ago.you really,really made me happy with this!thank you!
I’ve always envied them for that one reason. No matter what they always go through or have in life, they always have a positive outlook and always are happy.
Gosh, i still remember the exact moment when i first saw this video on MTV in 2000 or so. I was thirteen or fourteen, still living in my old childhood house here in northern Italy, during a boring and lonely winter afternoon after i had just finished my homeworks, comfortably collapsed in our big, light blue living room sofa. That was elevating. Never stopped remembering that particular episode every now and then.
The guy who recommended this to me is also italian, big shoutouts from brazil bro, its always nice to read these stories from ppl, i dont remember the year 2000 so well cuz i was a toddler lmao
Io ricordo di aver sentito questa canzone per la prima volta in occasione della maratona di video che MTV fece in seguito all 11 settembre. Per ore trasmisero video stupendi con brani profondamente evocativi e questo brano mi si stampo' nella memoria e stasera finalmente l ho ritrovato
That deep cosmic wash of reverbed distorted bowed guitar at the beginning....is just insane. That's seriously one of the most transcendent pieces of music/sound ever put to tape. Always love when Sigur Ros would dive into a more shoegaze sound. They do it so well...but no where near enough lol. I'd kill for an entire SR album of nothing but shoegaze-centric tunes.
I just cried uncontrollably throughout the duration of this, I was thinking about my childhood best friend from highschool who took their life a few years ago, I felt a deep mourning but didn't feel low, as I wept and warm tears fell down my cheeks my heart felt lighter and lighter as I felt more connected to my friend who had passed.
C'est plein de beauté. Je suis tombé sur ce clip par surprise. Un grand moment de compassion, de tendresse, l'univers musical est est comme un voyage en apesanteur. Quelle découverte paisible et touchante.
Jo Do this comment and the other u say about "i love down syndrome people" make me see on another way this song, like a monalisa draw change to kandinsky paints... and come on a new concept on my perspective mind tnx
I could watch this a thousand times and still have tears running down my face. Never grows old. This video encompasses the powerful force of unabashed joy and love of humanity. We all should be moved to be more compassionate and accepting. This is truest form of art.
I heard this song somewhere once, and don't remember where. Funny finding it again by accident...I didn't know it was Sigur Ros. Hearing it with this beautiful video is turning me into a heart shaped puddle. I wish the world could all be as tender and intelligent as this music.
I had was listening to this in my car when I picked up my Dad from his chemo therapy (second time), It was then, while listening to this that he was going to leave me soon and I quickly came to terms with that at that moment too. He passed at 60 years of age. I miss his wisdom.
@@heroesofmormon5542 our time is fairly short...the older one gets, the more this realisation is realised?.. such beautiful moments, diving into water, and things that didn't cost money, are the precious things?
When I first watched this video 11 years ago, I couldn't properly appreciate it. It scared me a bit, I guess. Then my niece was born and I had to deal with the reality of Down Syndrome in my family. After a long process of personal development, I come back to this video and realize it was just too heart-felt, wholesome and beautiful for the guy I was in those years.
A few years ago, I bought my brother the nirvana bleach for a few dollars, it turned out that it was just the case, the album was from another band, with nothing on the record with what appears to be a baby / alien in a fetal position. I listened to it several times and it was nice, I never knew the name because Google never identified the track, until now that years later I find this track, which has given me the name. it is something crazy I have unexpected 🧐🍷 This is a masterpiece!
Well they do have an album titled ( ) and the tracks are ( ) 1, ( ) 2, and so on. But not the album on which Svefn-g-englar is featured, this album is titled Ágætis Byrjun.
Here’s still here in 2020 👽 I remember the first time I heard this song, it was 9th grade and I absolutely fell head over heals for this band. This is one of my top favorite bands 🙏🏼😇
Beautiful Boy brought me here. I almost cried when I listened to it for the first time in one of the trailers, then I cried in the scene where it appears and now I'm here crying again
I can't believe this album is nearly 20 years old already, where has the time gone? I remember borrowing the CD from my best friend and looking up the lyrics/translations online (pre-Google) like it was yesterday
Just look at that beauty at 2:30 and 3:23. I mean really, these two are sublime. I don't know what happened after this amazing clip but I sure hope they're together as they have such love and chemistry. Gosh what a clip. Their embrace at the end...gosh, we'd all wish we had that level of love. Urgh...if only hey.
Recuerdo que escuché esta canción por primera vez hace 12 años, durante una noche muy triste. Sin saber quiénes eran. Esa noche triste, con esta canción de fondo, me invadió una pena infinita. Hoy la vuelvo a escuchar, 12 años después, y solo quiero abrir las puertas de mi corazón y llorar en paz. I remember hearing this song for the first time 12 years ago, during a very sad night. Without knowing who this music band was. That sad night, with this song in the background, an infinite pain invaded me. Today I listen to her again, 12 years later, and I just want to open the doors of my heart and cry in peace.
A moment of silence for the poor souls who haven't yet been exposed to this song. Mother Nature sent it to me through the radio waves one early early morning while I was driving home from work crying because my crush at work liked a crazy coworker instead of me 😅 I'll take this song over him any day
Awwww… some people have referred to people with Down syndrome as angels on earth. This is such a beautiful video. Just full of so much love, wholesomeness and joy.
This is my go-to panic attack song, has been since the album was released... I saw the official vid for the first time today, the innocent, joyful beauty brought me out of the dark place faster.
I heard this song on the movie beautiful boy about a father and son facing addiction. It helped me to go get help for others and understand what I and many others have gone through..
My best friend died of Hodgkins Disease in 2001 listening to this song…his last words were, “it’s so beautiful”… This song just tears me up, every time.
Image and sound form a unity here - and I still mean that after almost 14 years. Both inseparable from each other. A great work by Sigur Ròs and a great performance by the "Perlan" theater group from Iceland, staged after a choreography by Lára Sstefánsdóttir. And the message to us humans behind it has depth, despite the emotional, the visible.
Did you know that in Jewish Orthodoxy, people with so-called down-syndrome are believed to be re-incarnated saints? because they can do no wrong or commit sin in that form. My Rabbi always stands up out of respect when someone with so-called down syndrome comes to pray at our synagogue.
+Circa Aeon My first best friend was a girl with Down syndrome, so this video hit home. I haven´t seen her in more than ten years, but I remember how sweet she was. I was 5 and she was 8, but I had to help her at school and that´s how we became friends.
+Circa Aeon So called down syndrome? Its called that because it is just that, and its a severe genetical disorder. Respecting someone because of a disorder is okay i guess. But its sad really, their one chance in eternity, spent with a disorder that always keeps them outside society, having naive religious people think of them as angels is just one of many examples of what these people have to endure. 99% suffer from mental impairment, abundant diseases and most die early from this condition. Oh, and by the way, religion is like downs syndrome for the mind, and although i respect you, i understand that you suffer from a severe mental disorder. Now Jewish orthodoxy sounds even more stupid than i previously thought.
Exposer Although I am also not very enthusiastic about religion in general, I still think your reaction is exaggerated, considering them angels is still better than a lot of other things religious people consider other people...
I found this CD during a particularly hard time in my life. I remember: $3.59, I was always so shocked; Less than $4 to save a life. Less than $4 to keep someone going on their second shift of the night alive. I've long since burnt the disc itself out and it won't read anymore however I still come back to this song specifically when times are tough. I don't know why this song just makes me break down and get out all of the darkness but damn, I'm glad it does; the amount of experiences I would have missed and the people I wouldn't have met.
This is nominated for Greatested Video of All time. And Right fully so. The Music goes so well with the natural beauty that is Iceland and the amazing act in the video. Truely amazing. Sigur Ros are outstanding!!
I love this song crazily since I was 11 years old until now on. I found life harmonies on it. There are an innocence, freedom, happiness, but also loneliness. They are likely mixed to be most beautiful chaos, either the pure soul.
I discovered this song 4 years ago, through the V TV series. It instantly became one of my 2 favorite songs of all time and my second most played song, but I would so love to see the English lyrics to it, so I know what it's all about. Oh and the song it draws with as favorite is I Can't Help Myself, which I've been playing since 1965, so it has a little head start on plays!
I heard this song in the new beetlejuice movie and I fell in love with it the moment I heard it it sent entire chills all over my body and I knew I needed to find it
Still this song makes my soul travel by the sea. Hoping Sigur Ros releases more iconical and unique master pieces like Svefn-g-englar. Your enormous talent get felt across continents. Thanks for such a healing success.
Eurovision the story of fire saga brought me here and I just couldn’t find the song till today. I was so disappointed with people in general but now I feel so wholesome and at peace I really needed it this song gave me hope and peace
Wow. This is magnificent. I find the two lead characters in this video to be so beautiful. Definitely one of the most stunning and moving, touching, things I've ever seen and heard.

Heard this song on beetlejuice and even though it only played for like 15 seconds i was instantly hooked, this is definitely going on my aux playlist
I heard this song somewhere once, and don't remember where. Funny finding it again by accident...I didn't know it was Sigur Ros. Hearing it with this beautiful video is turning me into a heart shaped puddle. I wish the world could all be as tender and intelligent as this music.
Vanilla Sky.
same thing for me!
I had was listening to this in my car when I picked up my Dad from his chemo therapy (second time), It was then, while listening to this that he was going to leave me soon and I quickly came to terms with that at that moment too. He passed at 60 years of age. I miss his wisdom.
My dad was almost 72😢
❤❤❤
@@heroesofmormon5542 our time is fairly short...the older one gets, the more this realisation is realised?.. such beautiful moments, diving into water, and things that didn't cost money, are the precious things?
When I first watched this video 11 years ago, I couldn't properly appreciate it. It scared me a bit, I guess. Then my niece was born and I had to deal with the reality of Down Syndrome in my family. After a long process of personal development, I come back to this video and realize it was just too heart-felt, wholesome and beautiful for the guy I was in those years.
this character development is truly beautiful
Respect this song is epic.
Growth.... never a bad thing.
A few years ago, I bought my brother the nirvana bleach for a few dollars, it turned out that it was just the case, the album was from another band, with nothing on the record with what appears to be a baby / alien in a fetal position.
I listened to it several times and it was nice, I never knew the name because Google never identified the track, until now that years later I find this track, which has given me the name.
it is something crazy I have unexpected 🧐🍷
This is a masterpiece!
Well they do have an album titled ( ) and the tracks are ( ) 1, ( ) 2, and so on. But not the album on which Svefn-g-englar is featured, this album is titled Ágætis Byrjun.

Caught me off guard hearing this in Eurovision Song Constest: The Story of Fire Saga.
Where is it?
That movie brought me here too and I’m thankful! 🥲
This is definitely one of the most beautiful music that this world offers us.
My word...This is so beautiful it actually hurts...
Yes, it hurts in a beautiful way!!
So accurate
leave the words, embrace music
Beautiful boy brought me here and can't stop crying with this
Back one year later. Nice to see the comments between then and now. Gives me hope for humanity. We might make it after all....
cocteautwinned come again
Humanity has suffered and survived far, far far worse years than that one
I've felt the same. Absolutely love Elizabeth Fraser. And I've watched this video since it was first posted.
No we wont
@@vish4544 ❤
This reminds me of a person with downs that I know. He's such an innocent guy. That's what's beautiful about these people. They don't know any evil.
Not all of them... My uncle has down syndrome and has been on top of me.
Here’s still here in 2020 👽 I remember the first time I heard this song, it was 9th grade and I absolutely fell head over heals for this band. This is one of my top favorite bands 🙏🏼😇
I absolutely love this video. I haven't listened to this song , or even Sigur Ros in a long time. Such an amazing experience to rediscover.
Same feeling right here. :)
+Murderotica Same here [2]! :)
Beautiful Boy brought me here. I almost cried when I listened to it for the first time in one of the trailers, then I cried in the scene where it appears and now I'm here crying again
who is beautiful boy?
@@ophelietremblaymovie about a relationship between a father and son and dealing with addictions and unconditional love.
I can't believe this album is nearly 20 years old already, where has the time gone? I remember borrowing the CD from my best friend and looking up the lyrics/translations online (pre-Google) like it was yesterday
Just look at that beauty at 2:30 and 3:23. I mean really, these two are sublime. I don't know what happened after this amazing clip but I sure hope they're together as they have such love and chemistry. Gosh what a clip. Their embrace at the end...gosh, we'd all wish we had that level of love. Urgh...if only hey.
Yes! This is that song I was trying to remember. My old roommate would play this over and over for hours. Great sound. So pure.
Recuerdo que escuché esta canción por primera vez hace 12 años, durante una noche muy triste. Sin saber quiénes eran. Esa noche triste, con esta canción de fondo, me invadió una pena infinita. Hoy la vuelvo a escuchar, 12 años después, y solo quiero abrir las puertas de mi corazón y llorar en paz.
I remember hearing this song for the first time 12 years ago, during a very sad night. Without knowing who this music band was. That sad night, with this song in the background, an infinite pain invaded me. Today I listen to her again, 12 years later, and I just want to open the doors of my heart and cry in peace.
after 13 years...i can't understand why this music make me feel
weightless. awesome Sigur ros, like allways.
A moment of silence for the poor souls who haven't yet been exposed to this song. Mother Nature sent it to me through the radio waves one early early morning while I was driving home from work crying because my crush at work liked a crazy coworker instead of me 😅 I'll take this song over him any day
I don't get it
i cant believe this has only 2m views after 14 years. This is a masterpiece
Absolutely beautiful, moving and filled with love.
Awwww… some people have referred to people with Down syndrome as angels on earth. This is such a beautiful video. Just full of so much love, wholesomeness and joy.
One of the unique music. Thanks Sigur Rós ❤❤
The love syndrome:) Honestly this has to be the most beautiful piece of art I have ever seen from a song and music video:)
I discover this song listening to a podcast while walking throught the landscapes of Iceland. I will never forget that moment.
I cried when they use this song in Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice.
This song calms me down so much, it's like a warm bubble bath for my brain.
I don't understand anything but it's been a week and I can't stop listening.
i come here after watch beetlejuice movie... its such a beautiful song
This is my go-to panic attack song, has been since the album was released... I saw the official vid for the first time today, the innocent, joyful beauty brought me out of the dark place faster.
I heard this song on the movie beautiful boy about a father and son facing addiction. It helped me to go get help for others and understand what I and many others have gone through..
My best friend died of Hodgkins Disease in 2001 listening to this song…his last words were, “it’s so beautiful”…
This song just tears me up, every time.
Я понимаю, что прошло много лет, но все таки примите мои соболезнования.
Wow I just got chills
What a way to go out man...
dayum
Image and sound form a unity here - and I still mean that after almost 14 years. Both inseparable from each other. A great work by Sigur Ròs and a great performance by the "Perlan" theater group from Iceland, staged after a choreography by Lára Sstefánsdóttir.
And the message to us humans behind it has depth, despite the emotional, the visible.
Did you know that in Jewish Orthodoxy, people with so-called down-syndrome are believed to be re-incarnated saints? because they can do no wrong or commit sin in that form. My Rabbi always stands up out of respect when someone with so-called down syndrome comes to pray at our synagogue.
+Circa Aeon That is an incredible look on them. I had never thought about it like that, more people should.
+Circa Aeon I absolutely think they're a higher form of human beings, because they radiate love.
+Circa Aeon My first best friend was a girl with Down syndrome, so this video hit home. I haven´t seen her in more than ten years, but I remember how sweet she was. I was 5 and she was 8, but I had to help her at school and that´s how we became friends.
+Circa Aeon So called down syndrome? Its called that because it is just that, and its a severe genetical disorder. Respecting someone because of a disorder is okay i guess. But its sad really, their one chance in eternity, spent with a disorder that always keeps them outside society, having naive religious people think of them as angels is just one of many examples of what these people have to endure. 99% suffer from mental impairment, abundant diseases and most die early from this condition. Oh, and by the way, religion is like downs syndrome for the mind, and although i respect you, i understand that you suffer from a severe mental disorder. Now Jewish orthodoxy sounds even more stupid than i previously thought.
Exposer Although I am also not very enthusiastic about religion in general, I still think your reaction is exaggerated, considering them angels is still better than a lot of other things religious people consider other people...
I found this CD during a particularly hard time in my life. I remember: $3.59, I was always so shocked; Less than $4 to save a life. Less than $4 to keep someone going on their second shift of the night alive. I've long since burnt the disc itself out and it won't read anymore however I still come back to this song specifically when times are tough. I don't know why this song just makes me break down and get out all of the darkness but damn, I'm glad it does; the amount of experiences I would have missed and the people I wouldn't have met.
If ya end up there again, I'll send ya a CD free :)
That smile, at 1:40 :-)
8:24 looks like a painting by Raphael. Simply too beautiful for words.
2:48 too ❤️
너무좋아서 눈물나
This is nominated for Greatested Video of All time. And Right fully so. The Music goes so well with the natural beauty that is Iceland and the amazing act in the video. Truely amazing. Sigur Ros are outstanding!!
Beautiful! Who’s here after “Fire Saga” ...
Dude... we've been here for more than a decade now.

This song brings tears to my eyes every single time I listen to it. A Truly timeless track.
Who unlikes something so beautiful?
Jewish people

I love this song crazily since I was 11 years old until now on. I found life harmonies on it. There are an innocence, freedom, happiness, but also loneliness. They are likely mixed to be most beautiful chaos, either the pure soul.
Love this song. Was on the new Will Ferrell movie and I got goosebumps !
what movie?
The music is perfect...The video clip is perfect...They are so beautiful ❤❤❤
This music is the best gift to the soul. Takk!
I discovered this song 4 years ago, through the V TV series. It instantly became one of my 2 favorite songs of all time and my second most played song, but I would so love to see the English lyrics to it, so I know what it's all about. Oh and the song it draws with as favorite is I Can't Help Myself, which I've been playing since 1965, so it has a little head start on plays!
I heard this song in the new beetlejuice movie and I fell in love with it the moment I heard it it sent entire chills all over my body and I knew I needed to find it
This song means so much to me
Mylene Farmer's fans nightmare
"TU ES OUUU" x30000
Still this song makes my soul travel by the sea. Hoping Sigur Ros releases more iconical and unique master pieces like Svefn-g-englar. Your enormous talent get felt across continents. Thanks for such a healing success.
heaven is on earth. weve been in the garden eden the whole time. tell a friend
Wow! Nothing like getting choked up at 3 pm on a work day.
Años escuchando esta canción y no me canso... Sublime!
Yo también .☺️
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice has brought me here. 🪲🧃
This music video is one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen in my life.
Thanks, guys, for sticking a commercial in the middle of this. I was enjoying it way too much.

Eurovision the story of fire saga brought me here and I just couldn’t find the song till today. I was so disappointed with people in general but now I feel so wholesome and at peace I really needed it this song gave me hope and peace
Listen to this music only by headphones. Love from Georgia
Yesss. Currently! Always have to revisit this one when I’m feeling that type of way...
Lowlands 2008 never forget the amazing show. Thnks Sigur Ros.
Welcome new listeners who heard this song in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice!
Late but present
In assoluto , il pianto piu' sincero che musica possa provocare !
Wow. This is magnificent. I find the two lead characters in this video to be so beautiful. Definitely one of the most stunning and moving, touching, things I've ever seen and heard.
Does anyone else get chills when you watch this video? Sigur Ros never ceases to amaze me... they're beautiful... their innocence is beautiful...
Yes
