Sono anni che seguo la musica dei Sigur Ros, ma è il loro modo di essere che mi incanta: islandesi, concludono i loro tour con concerti gratuiti nella loro terra, i loro video mostrano anziani e disabili sereni. La loro musica è il dolce e pesante suono della gioia e della vita.
[en] I've enjoyed the music of Sigur Ros for years, but it's their way of being that fascinates me: Icelanders, they conclude their tour with free concerts in their homeland, their videos show elderly and disabled people. Their music is the sweet and heavy sound of joy and life.
