    Dear Asgeir, I heard this song very often. It kills me every time. The magic of the circular harmonies turns off the brain and exposes the heart to an open sky. Thank you very much.

      I listened to this song every day for the last 4 months of my pregnancy. My dad had a massive stroke and my anxiety was very high. This song helped to centre me and helped me sleep.

      No, it's his friend, Júlíus. Ásgeir's brother is the singer in a band called "Hjálmar".
      Like a true friend, Júlíus gave up a really good job paving roads to tour with Ásgeir, after only a little persuasion.
      They're a joy to listen to.

    This will always remind me of travelling to my parents wonderful house in the Scottish Highlands just before it was sold. I knew it was the last time I would be going there. I was playing this as I took the last road there and could see the hills of The Isle of Arran in the distance across the water.

    I heard this song while flying from Seattle to Iceland - This is easily one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in English or Icelandic.

    Found these people on accident, nothing led me here except for a thumbnail. A picture that looked like a man deep in thought or in pain. I had to click it to see what it was, it was beautiful.

    this is one those songs that slowly creeps in. I needed several listens to truly appreciate the depth that this song has. The harmony vocals are an essential part of it.

    I'm Ukrainian and my home is on the occupied terrirories since 2014. I haven't been home for almost 10 years now. This song breaks my heart and makes me cry every time I listen to it, but only because of how beautiful and powerful it is. I thank from the bottom of my heart everyone who took part in creating both the lyrics and the music 💔

    Love this song! Listened to it many times over the years, and it always takes me back to the same place in my mind. A quiet and somber yearning. For somewhere that feels like home.

      This song was on the Iceland Air in flight entertainment system on my way to Iceland. The Icelandic version is stunning. Listened to the song multiple times during the flight. A worthy sound track for any visit to Iceland.

    Thank you Asgeir for creating beautiful and meaningful songs. Your music has touched us profoundly to such an extent that we played this exact version of this song at our wedding this summer (between two lockdowns). It is a song full of emotion and even more meaning now to my wife and I. Love to those who always seek harmony.

    I think he sounds just like Asgeir. The qualities in his voice are unique if you listen on good speakers.

    • @kimberlybridges8658
      @kimberlybridges8658 11 років тому +2

      This is Asgeir. The only difference is he's singing in English and not Icelandic.

    • @MarYT961
      @MarYT961 11 років тому +5

      I know this is Asgeir. Someone said he sounded like someone else. I just meant he has enough unique qualities in his voice to stand alone and sound like himself...my comment was tongue-in-cheeky...lol

    • @catrmr8
      @catrmr8 11 років тому +3

      MarYT961 I agree he sounds just like Asgeir,completely unique. I don't know why people here try to compare him when there's crearly no comparison.Haven't heard a voice like this in years!

    Home, I'm making my way home
    My mind's already there
    Yes, my mind is
    Light, you're with me in the dark
    Light my way at night
    Let your light shine
    Now, this burden weighs me down
    The heaviest of weights
    Knocks me to the ground
    Right down to the
    Dew that sparkles on the ground
    Blue mountains loom above
    Blue mountains loom
    And I walk alone, one wish
    Won't be forgotten
    Never forget that
    Long, is the path ahead
    And though my body tires
    And I have far to go
    I know I'm going home
    Know I'm going home
    Know I'm going home
    Know I'm going home
    Know I'm going home
    Home, I'm making my way home
    My mind's already there
    Yes, my mind is
    Light, you're with me in the dark
    Light my way at night
    Let your light shine
    Now, this burden weighs me down
    The heaviest of weights
    Knocks me to the ground
    This burden weighs me down
    Burden weighs me down
    Burden weighs me down
    Burden weighs me down
    το μυαλό μου είναι ήδη εκεί
    Ναι, το μυαλό μου
    Φως, είσαι μαζί μου στο σκοτάδι
    Φως δρόμο μου το βράδυ
    Αφήστε το φως σας να λάμψει
    Τώρα, αυτό το βάρος μου ζυγίζει κάτω
    Το βαρύτερο βάρη
    μου χτυπά στο έδαφος
    μέχρι και την
    Δρόσου που λαμπιρίζει στο ισόγειο
    Μπλε βουνά ξεπροβάλλουν πάνω από
    Blue Mountains αργαλειό
    Και εγώ περπατήσει μόνος του, μια ευχή
    που δεν θα ξεχαστεί
    ποτέ να ξεχνάμε ότι
    Long, είναι ο δρόμος μπροστά
    Και αν τα ελαστικά το σώμα μου
    και εγώ να πάτε μακριά
    Ξέρω Πάω σπίτι
    να ξέρετε Πάω σπίτι
    να ξέρετε Πάω σπίτι
    να ξέρετε Πάω σπίτι
    να ξέρετε Πάω σπίτι
    Αρχική σελίδα, κάνω σπίτι μου
    το μυαλό μου είναι ήδη εκεί
    Ναι, το μυαλό μου
    Φως, είσαι μαζί μου στο σκοτάδι
    Φως δρόμο μου το βράδυ
    Αφήστε το φως σας να λάμψει
    Τώρα, αυτό το βάρος μου ζυγίζει κάτω
    Το βαρύτερο βάρη
    μου χτυπά στο έδαφος
    Η επιβάρυνση με βαραίνει
    Βάρος μου βαραίνει
    Βάρος μου βαραίνει
    Βάρος μου βαραίνει
