No, they did not kill a fox for the video. before filming, they sent out a tweet asking if anyone found a dead fox that they could film. They found this one at the side of the road. They filmed it over 30 days decaying. Also, the live fox is named Tod, he is trained. Tod was not harmed.
I just realized that "be brave" is not about overcoming your pain, but about enduring all the pain in the world. Time disappears with all things, good and bad.
All that is will eventually be was. It is the cause of great suffering for many if not all of us, I still struggle with accepting the impermanent nature of our existence. I'll find my own way home, I suppose. One day.
You think that these days… that you couldn’t get lost. But you can. Lost. I’ve lost my way. Every field just looks like the next. -Little snail, can you tell me where this is? -Do you want me to guide you out of here? -You’re not afraid, are you? where are you going? -I’m on my way home my dear. -Why do things always have to change? I don’t want to be on my own again… Oh, snail this is a terrible place. -Don’t be afraid. -I don’t know what I should do. -Be brave, little one. Be brave.
Do you ever watch something and sit there for five minutes completely stunned by what you have just seen? Then after those five minutes pass it all hits you at once? You find yourself crying because of the beauty of it all, that someone was able to understand something so important that you never knew you needed in the first place? This is what this video did for me. Thank you, Sigur Ros.
Guys, once try to listen this song in your headphones meanwhile you walk in a forest or wherever surrounded by nature.. Try to wandering purposeless, touch the trees, feel the air on your skin, smell the scents, see things for what they really are, marvel of everything and breathe...You will start to feel part of everything as it really is. Life is beautiful
I've been depressed for about 5 years. I haven't been able to cry much for about 3. Yesterday I watched this and it was really good, still haven't gotten over it. I really want to hug my pets.
Presumo tu sia un giovane. Attieniti alla Kalokagathia, per tutta la tua vita, senza farti sviare da nulla. Vedrai che le cose andranno bene, in qualsiasi modo andranno. Un caro saluto, da sconosciuto a sconosciuto.
I showed this to my fiancee and asked her what she thought. Her only response was "that was depressing". Needless to say we are not together anymore and I've been alone ever since.
My interpretation: I think the whole thing is a look into the soul of the main character. The snail symbolize "Hope"...the first glance into himself that makes him realize there's still beauty and light in him, even if it looks like a small flame...the meadow symbolize his wandering through his own self...the doubt, he's not sure who he is, why he's there & what his purpose is exactly...then when he finds the fox he sees a reflection of his own self being hurt & needy and learns that his compassion includes himself...he must not fight and hate against his pain because that means fighting and hating against himself, he must accept it in order to heal. Then when he falls asleep he finally embraces and accepts all of his parts (the hope, the doubts & the the pain) and when he wakes up the feelings are gone...and instead he sees beautiful bright stars...
lovely interpretation,congrats to you! i share the same point of view, i feel exactly the same pain right now, because i'm depressed and i just can't find my way...
ana v. I know it is... well, four months since you wrote that comment, and I hope you have found your way by now, but if you haven't... know that you're wonderful and special as you are, whoever you are. You will find meaning and purpose in things, whatever people say or indicate. I know this pain, too, but all bad things will pass eventually.
Clay Old bro this shits powerful material.dont even trip man. this stuff reveals shit to yourself man. it brings clearity.you need more of this in your life. i honestly think we all need more of this stuff in our life. we need to realize how much we can help situations... the circle of life man. its a pretty intense thing
I always come back to this song when I’m feeling lost. Lost of emotion, fulfillment, motivation, and many other emotions that I can’t put into words just yet.
Emiliano ASMR it’s impossible to don’t cry with this one. Everything’s perfect. The little snail, her voice, the man, the poor fox... the meaning of this work of art breaks my heart... astonishing.
Not only did this make me cry, I can't stop watching it so now I'm stuck in an endless cycle of crying. HOW DARE THEY MAKE SOMETHING SO HEART-TOUCHING AND BEAUTIFUL
That's Sigur Ros for you. Not ultra sad, but just the right amount of it. With equal measures of melancholy, trans and even happiness. As for the entire scene itself, stunning. Aiden Gillan is amazing AF.

He finds it terrifying but the wise snail convinces him to be brave and engage with the dying fox, which he does by providing it comfort as it dies. The fox decomposing shows the fox returning to the earth, it is natural and an inevitable part of life, and exposes his fear of death as unnatural. When he wakes up he has accepted death, and therefore accepted life. It is dark, but he looks up and sees beauty in life, nature and the universe, and, like the snail, is able to go on with calmly living. (I had to type that out to make it clear in my own head - the meaning of this has been bugging me since I first saw it!)
i dont think it has anything to do about moderen life vs nature and urbanization at all but the thought about life is beautiful. This is the best video of all time cause it is so goddamm emotional for me.
I think: -The Man is non-existing. This the tale of a wounded Fox, that got Lost!! -The Fox is feels like it lost it's way. "Every field feels like the next".

Shes comforting the Fox into it's ending stage. -Fox says "I don't know what i should do..." Fox cries. It feels pain. -"Be brave little one..... be brave", it's the way of the snail saying don't worry. Go in peace. -Fox travels to a big tree. And goes to sleep. -"Sleep little one.... sleep. And when you wake... I might be gone..." The snail is leaving the fox in peace to let nature carry it's own path, and take the once scared, hurt and lost fox, now has a calm, gentle, sleeping fox. -"Look around... You've found your own way home" were the snails last words. The fox is now one with the forest and nature. Thats what i feel about this....

Right!? This is packed with emotion, I also really like 2:40 "Where are you going?" "I'm on my way home my dear" with Jonsi humming in the backround or something... gives me shivers every time. 3:57 gets me too!
This always reminds me when I was in the moment of getting our dog put to sleep at the vet. As soon as the fox cries, it triggers some very powerful emotions in me and my heart cracks every time.
Every time I watch this video, or even when I just listen to it...brings me to tears. Such a true and honest representation of life and our surroundings that almost everyone is able to relate to. We all experience feeling lost and desperate in our "inner voice" that is told by the man....and the inner voice or "higher power" that we yearn to hear, which is portrayed by the snail. Seriously so damn moving.
I love love love this film / video. It evokes such a sense of loss yet wonder, simplicity and deep, deep internal conflict. This film makes me feel alive and alone and small, yet one with the world.
0:14 - 0:40 piensas que en estos días es imposible perderse... pero puedes... 0:40 - 1:13 perdido... 1:13 - 1:22 perdí mi camino... 1:22 - 1:58 cada campo era parecido al próximo 1:58 - 2:10 pequeño caracol... 2:10 - 2:15 me puedes decir en dónde estamos? 2:15 - 2:31 quieres que te enseñe el camino fuera de este lugar? 2:31 - 2:45 no tienes miedo, no es así ? 2:45 - 2:50 dónde vas-? 2:50 - 4:00 camino a casa amigo mío... 4:00 - 4:13 por qué las cosas siempre tienen que cambiar? 4:13 - 4:42 no quiero estar solo otra vez... 4:42 - 4:53 caracol?.. este lugar es horrible.. 4:53 - 5:06-no tengas miedo- 5:06 - 5:18 no sé que debo hacer 5:18 - 6:37 -sé valiente pequeño... sé valiente.- 6:37 - 6:45 Duerme... pequeño...

Have had trouble getting my emotions out lately... This me me burst into tears. I am speechless. So grateful for being a part of reality... The story that is being told here from my own interpretation is absolutely beautiful and stunning. Thanks you so much Sigur Ros, Nick Abrahams and everyone else involved in the making of this masterpiece.
here is what i thought about this. the man who lost his way and the snail are the same who wanted to go home the fox symbolizes the troubled man's fear. the snail who served as his inner voice that guided him in the wilderness asked him to "be brave" when he encountered the fox So he carried his fear out of the jungle he woke up in another day and the fox is gone. we saw in the last part that the snail meeting some other snail which means he is home
Anyone ells completely in love with the sound of Sigur Rós? I would love to hear more of this kind of music. Beautiful and simple and an incredible music video that supports the vibe of the song.
Life can be so random. I was so sure I was going the right path and then in a split second, the world flips upside down. It sucks to know some of our problems can be so insignificant when compared to losing someone you love to natural causes, but when you invest all of your heart into a stranger, you risk the same pains as those of your closest loved ones. I wish there were signs pointing in the correct direction, without heartache on every road crossing, but I also wonder if such life is even worth living. These little things that happen to us throughout our journeys can have such immense impacts later on, and not always for the better. It's hard to let go and forget some of the most painful moments of your life's past, even when those awful moments you keep seeing repeated over and over today. Makes you wonder if you are what your past was. I don't want to be that, but I struggle sometimes wondering if I even have a choice. I guess I can truly say I'm lost and unsure which way to go
why am I crying throughout this? I didn't even grasp the meaning of anything I've been watching but the tears are flowing, as if I understand it deep down.
Irreale appari a me e a nessun altro e ti celi nel nulla Sentiamo il tuo respiro sino a che ne siamo capaci chiudiamo i nostri occhi tendiamo il nostro udito ma non sentiamo nulla Un respiro il battito di un cuore un respiro, ci nuotiamo dentro ci sdraiamo dentro di lui.
That was the time when I was wandering through the forest for a few kilometers every summer night. That forest was between my village and my friend's. Those misty nights... Endless Sigur Ros on playlist. Moon and stars leading the way through the dark. Best time of my life. Now I live in different part of planet. On a different continent. Unable to see my parents for 7 years already. What happened to that forest? What happened to those summer nights? Why do things always have to change? This would be forever in my heart. Forever.
You think is one of these days that you cant get lost? but you cant você acha que é um daqueles dias em que não pode se perder? mas você pode lost I lost my way, every feel just looks like the next perdido, eu perdi meu caminho, cada sentimento para que será o próximo Little snail, can you tell me what is this? lesminha, você pode me dizer o que é isso? Do you want me to guide you out of here? Você gostaria que eu te guiasse para fora daqui? You are out of friends, are you? Você está sem amigos, não está? Where are we going? Aonde nós estamos indo? Im way by home my dear Eu estou a caminho de casa meu querido Why the things always have to change? Porque as coisas sempre tem de mudar? I dont want to be on my own again Eu não quero estar por minha conta de novo Oh snail is it a terrible place Oh lesminha este é um lugar terrível Dont be afraid Não tenha medo I dont know what I should do Eu não sei o que eu deveria fazer Be brave little own be brave Seja forte pequenino seja forte Sleep little one, sleep, and when you wake I might be gone dorma pequenino, durma, e quando você acordar eu terei partido Sleep durma Look around olhe em volta You will find your own way home Você irá encontrar por si mesmo o seu caminho para casa
My interpretation is that the man just got out of a relationship and has become "lost". Whether the snail is in the same boat is hard to say, but im guessing so, because it found a partner in the end as well. The snail and the man help each-other find "home" or a sense of normality. The man eventually reaches the fox. Notice the dark lighting, the fear the man feels, it conveys dark emotions and sadness. The fox is wounded or broken, just like the relationship. With the help of the snail, the man finally has the courage to drag it out of the recesses of his mind and let it die for good (Why the fox is shown decomposing). After this the man is finally free, and the snail has finally met someone for itself, which is why they must part ways. A beautiful story of human relationships, our fears, and hope.
when this first came out i was so broken I couldn't watch/listen without breaking down in fear...but today I hear the words and i feel the sounds to be brave , and heal..💚
I got goosebumps. Finding this video with such an incerdible instrumental in tbe background in the middle of the night. I just can’t explain how I am feeling right now. I’m just staring into the darkness and I feel the heaviness in my bones that how lonely we are.
This video is something special. I can't even begin to express how this makes me feel. The Valtari album in itself is one of my favourites but this piece, combined with such a heart felt video, reaches parts of my soul I thought I'd never find. This is my true meaning of beautiful. Sad, but Peaceful
Wow this brings so many memories from the last time I was playing in a field just like this with my rescue dog. He was a Collie, and in fact I found a snail and took him back with me. It symbolized change for me. And we went back home ... not too much longer we had to move but so cool ♥️
It's been a while I didn't cry this much. Beautiful pictures, beautiful meaning, beautiful sounds. Every single detail was amazingly touching, from the voice of the snail to the wandering of the man
I saw this short film a couple years ago, and it was the first time I heard Sigur Rós, and I loved them. When it comes to the story, it is beautiful and well crafted... and deeply moving
words can't describe how much i love sigur rós, it's a feeling i've never felt for any other band on earth, it's overwhelming and beautiful. i can bet this is what heaven sounds like.
This band is not just about music! They are much more than that! They narrate the secrets of life! I have cried or almost cried after watching every video of theirs!
The man is wandering, lost and the snail is his inner voice, giving him hope and telling him to be brave. The man encounters his own injured self in the 'bad place', and the snail tells him to be brave. So the man embraces it, and carries it with him, instead of recoiling. After settling down to sleep with it, and fully embrace himself the snail leaves... the fox dies, revealing that he can handle the worst possible outcome. It has no relevance to him anymore. The snail leaves, and the man looks up at the stars, ready to guide himself... :) love all these different interpretations!
+Hyowon Kwon Your mind is sad, but if you feel that you're loosing that one you love, you can search him untill the end of the world, or you can let him go. If your soul chooses the first one, you wont be afraid of what can happen. But if your soul chooses the second, then, he wasnt yours at all
First time hearing this....4am, rain against the windows, lightning, thunder, tears, Sigur Ros, and Jonsi, always kbow how to evoke emotions out of me....thank u. Always great full.
Found this video about a year ago, and it's still beautiful and emotional to this day. I can thank Sigur Ros for the fact that I am now learning to speak Icelandic.
I cannot watch this anymore. It takes me to such a dark place. Sigur ros always takes me on an emotional rollercoaster. My happiest dream and my most horid nightmares. No other band has come so close to my heart . I hope they tour again . I need a live performance.
This is one of the songs that brought me out of that dark place. I was lost and didn't or rather wouldn't realize it. I had to face myself head on. This song brings me back to a time I had realized and it makes me happy that I did.
this video evokes so many meaningful emotions, the music is my favourite by sigur ros. no other video made for this song comes close to this. cant watch it without crying
Uno dei video a parer mio più Belli al mondo. Qui c'è tutto il senso della Vita! Impossibile non emozionarsi. Immensi Sigur Ros...come sempre! Vi adoro fin dagli inizi.
I think this film is a look into Agent Bill Wilson's life after the prologue scene for The Dark Knight Rises... apparently he has lost his memory in the plane crash (but is otherwise uninjured) and wanders the fields, looking for an abstract concept he calls 'home'... perhaps the snail is a manifestation of his own psyche, a greater power that refers to him as 'little one' in an attempt to finally allow Wilson to come to terms with the fact that he's a small guy. I hope that Wilson doesn't return to the CIA after this, and that his experiences once (if?) he regains his memory urge him to retire into a serene, pastoral life such as what is pictured here. 9/10 Bravo Nolan
I listened to this song hiking the cliffs of California. I bowed my head and felt the wind against my breast The crashing of waves against the ancient rock spraying my face, cleansing of trouble. I knelt and looked to the sky. The fog inundated me. I was then inspired.
We have this mountain we call table rock in my city. It's a popular spot to watch the sunset and sunrise, also to see the entire downtown area. This song came on while I was watching the sunset and I never felt so connected with my surroundings. As the sky changed color, I sat and watched for hours, replaying this song. As the sun was finally going down I found my self tearing up because for the first time I discovered something truly beautiful.

I just realized that "be brave" is not about overcoming your pain, but about enduring all the pain in the world. Time disappears with all things, good and bad.

The part where he says "Why do things always have to change?" is what got to me the most. It really describes my inner fears and anxieties.
Hope everything it's good now brother.
that's what i asked myself every day last year. I think I got used to it now, going on my way alone, and growing.
That line hit me too!
I was into Sigur Ros back in like 2004 and listened to them in spurts over the years. I've never seen these videos. Very neat.

To this day… one of the most beautiful music videos ever made, in my opinion.
💚🍀
I agree
Song!
After 10 years im still crying.
You think that these days… that you couldn’t get lost. But you can. Lost. I’ve lost my way. Every field just looks like the next.
-Little snail, can you tell me where this is?
-Do you want me to guide you out of here?
-You’re not afraid, are you? where are you going?
-I’m on my way home my dear.
-Why do things always have to change? I don’t want to be on my own again… Oh, snail this is a terrible place.
-Don’t be afraid.
-I don’t know what I should do.
-Be brave, little one. Be brave.
Sleep little one, sleep.
and when you awake I might be gone.
Sleep...
look around, you’ll find your own way home

I live no where near forests, sadly.
I've been depressed for about 5 years.
I haven't been able to cry much for about 3.
Yesterday I watched this and it was really good, still haven't gotten over it.
I really want to hug my pets.
Psilocybin is the key my friend
I haven't cried for years either. What's up with that I wonder?

What’s lonely is feeling these profound feelings while watching this art, then showing someone else and they don’t see it. 😞
That's ok! Let's just be brave.😌 One must be in a certain state of mind and soul to feel and understand this!
Have a wonderful life! 😉
Deeper ocean of emotion/affections. This song is so big!
I relate to this on another level
I showed this to my fiancee and asked her what she thought. Her only response was "that was depressing". Needless to say we are not together anymore and I've been alone ever since.

My cat died today. This came to my mind and soothe me. My little cat will be well, wherever he may be.

Na bíblia diz que nem a nossa vida nos pertence...

..we see here an example of how language is completely irrelevant at the core of life. This man endures the pain of all things in silence.
No matter the day, time, or mood, this song will make my eyes an uncontrollable ocean
Be brave, little one. Be brave. Sleep, little one. Sleep. And when you wake, I might be gone. Sleep. Look around. You will find your own way home. :"(

Tears came so fast
How can it be so meaningful while being so innocent
My soul is crying...
My dog just died a month ago. and today i come accross this video, i instantly cried.
I burst in to tears every time. 😭
Not enough people have seen this magnificent piece of work.
I really think the same. This should be have seen by the entire population of this world
That's because not everyone will understand beauty of it
Not only did this make me cry, I can't stop watching it so now I'm stuck in an endless cycle of crying. HOW DARE THEY MAKE SOMETHING SO HEART-TOUCHING AND BEAUTIFUL
Bravo Nolan ;_;7
If I pull that off will you cry?
watch Glosoli
That's Sigur Ros for you.
Not ultra sad, but just the right amount of it. With equal measures of melancholy, trans and even happiness.
As for the entire scene itself, stunning. Aiden Gillan is amazing AF.

I interpret this as being about the disconnect between modern life and nature, and fear of death. When the film starts the man is at a crisis point feeling lost and alone, and I think that this is a comment on modern life due to the line about not thinking you could get lost "these days", as well as the contrast between the wild, countryside setting with the man's urban office-wear. He is out of touch with nature, concepts like life and death, and his life feels synthetic and hollow. He is afraid of being alone, and most of all afraid of death. When he meets the fox he is confronted by death - first he thinks the fox wants to attack and kill him, and then he realises that the fox is dying. He finds it terrifying but the wise snail convinces him to be brave and engage with the dying fox, which he does by providing it comfort as it dies. The fox decomposing shows the fox returning to the earth, it is natural and an inevitable part of life, and exposes his fear of death as unnatural. When he wakes up he has accepted death, and therefore accepted life. It is dark, but he looks up and sees beauty in life, nature and the universe, and, like the snail, is able to go on with calmly living.

Yes, I agree:) beautiful!!
2023.July: I aggree with your description...a wise snail.....a lost man (the tie is a perfect symbol for modern life) and his reconnect to earth.
Estava tentando entender e na minha opinião você descreveu perfeitamente ❤
Every time I watch this I'm like, "naa I won't cry this time." Then I cry.. every time. 💛
I think:
-The Man is non-existing. This the tale of a wounded Fox, that got Lost!!
-The Fox is feels like it lost it's way. "Every field feels like the next". In desperation it asked directions even to a snail.
-Snail asks if the fox wants to be guided out from darkness. "You're not afraid are you?" The snail knows the Fox state.
-Snail leads fox to the woods. Fox states "Oh snail... this is a terrible place." It knows creatures go to die there.
-Within the woods, the fox asks "Why does everything have to change..." It knows it's hurt.
-Snail whispers "Don't be afraid." Shes comforting the Fox into it's ending stage.
-Fox says "I don't know what i should do..." Fox cries. It feels pain.
-"Be brave little one..... be brave", it's the way of the snail saying don't worry. Go in peace.
-Fox travels to a big tree. And goes to sleep.
-"Sleep little one.... sleep. And when you wake... I might be gone..." The snail is leaving the fox in peace to let nature carry it's own path, and take the once scared, hurt and lost fox, now has a calm, gentle, sleeping fox.
-"Look around... You've found your own way home" were the snails last words. The fox is now one with the forest and nature.
Thats what i feel about this....
there's a strange clear liquid coming from my eyes now. I went to WebMD and it said its cancer.
TheLeafySpring Don't be afraid....... be brave little one...."
No this is the epilogue of CIA story.

What is it about this video, that makes me feel we are all one and interconnected, and that compassion for all things is all that really matters.
You are a nice person, God bless you...
The flight plan I just filed with life lists me, my men, Dr Pavel here-
-and all of you
Beautifully said... I just would like to add: all that really matters is compassion and HELP...
Jungian, the collective unconscious, you are correct
This is why I am vegan 💚
05:16
"Be brave, little one... Be brave!"
06:35
"Sleep, little one... Sleep!"
My heart squeezed in emotion...
This is absolutely gorgeous...
Right!? This is packed with emotion, I also really like 2:40 "Where are you going?" "I'm on my way home my dear" with Jonsi humming in the backround or something... gives me shivers every time. 3:57 gets me too!
Piggy Knowles So True...
This is a masterpiece...
Divine inspiration...
💚🍀🥹
I come here to cry sometimes
❤😢
Same!!! 🥲
Sim
Me too
me too, reassuring to have someone doing the same
This always reminds me when I was in the moment of getting our dog put to sleep at the vet. As soon as the fox cries, it triggers some very powerful emotions in me and my heart cracks every time.
Every time I watch this video, or even when I just listen to it...brings me to tears. Such a true and honest representation of life and our surroundings that almost everyone is able to relate to. We all experience feeling lost and desperate in our "inner voice" that is told by the man....and the inner voice or "higher power" that we yearn to hear, which is portrayed by the snail. Seriously so damn moving.
I love love love this film / video. It evokes such a sense of loss yet wonder, simplicity and deep, deep internal conflict. This film makes me feel alive and alone and small, yet one with the world.
What Sigor Ros does for me more than anything is let me know there are people like me on this planet, contrary to all appearances.
That's exactly what sharing with other people should teach you.
Exactly, this makes me feel less alone, too.
we are not alone, believe me
Uh, you don't get to bring friends.
armand cruz has it right

4:00 - 4:13 por qué las cosas siempre tienen que cambiar?
4:13 - 4:42 no quiero estar solo otra vez...
4:42 - 4:53 caracol?.. este lugar es horrible..

5:18 - 6:37 -sé valiente pequeño... sé valiente.-

Have had trouble getting my emotions out lately... This me me burst into tears. I am speechless. So grateful for being a part of reality... The story that is being told here from my own interpretation is absolutely beautiful and stunning.
Thanks you so much Sigur Ros, Nick Abrahams and everyone else involved in the making of this masterpiece.
here is what i thought about this.
the man who lost his way and the snail are the same who wanted to go home
the fox symbolizes the troubled man's fear.
the snail who served as his inner voice that guided him in the wilderness asked him to "be brave" when he encountered the fox
So he carried his fear out of the jungle
he woke up in another day and the fox is gone.
we saw in the last part that the snail meeting some other snail which means he is home
+gabriel caranzo Very good!
+gabriel caranzo It is also interesting that the fox has an injured leg
+Matt Jensen Fear has no hold when we are not afraid.
+The_Monk_Weee! or.. that even our fears hold broken bits of ourselves.. we must care for our fears, as we care for our happiness.
gabriel caranzo , very insightful..Thank you.
sttgaegoaktd
loneliness can be such a sad place.
It can be such a big place to, for me.
Kungini K it's empty..
Or a confortable place.
danilo carvalho too comfortable... and too little
Kungini K love your icon!
This video is just something else. Words can only try to describe this. Magnificent.
Anyone ells completely in love with the sound of Sigur Rós? I would love to hear more of this kind of music. Beautiful and simple and an incredible music video that supports the vibe of the song.
I am forever grateful to Sigur Rós for existing. Their music helps me go through my life.❤️
aaaand i cried.
and same here!
Me too....
+Vincent Fugère (Low Hp) It's okay. :c
The part when he carries the fox is just beautiful. Emotions that you can't describe :(
Love the honesty
I can't stop crying. You make the world more beautiful ! You can see beauty in everything and show it to us. Thank you so much for existing !
😊
Life can be so random. I was so sure I was going the right path and then in a split second, the world flips upside down. It sucks to know some of our problems can be so insignificant when compared to losing someone you love to natural causes, but when you invest all of your heart into a stranger, you risk the same pains as those of your closest loved ones. I wish there were signs pointing in the correct direction, without heartache on every road crossing, but I also wonder if such life is even worth living. These little things that happen to us throughout our journeys can have such immense impacts later on, and not always for the better. It's hard to let go and forget some of the most painful moments of your life's past, even when those awful moments you keep seeing repeated over and over today. Makes you wonder if you are what your past was. I don't want to be that, but I struggle sometimes wondering if I even have a choice. I guess I can truly say I'm lost and unsure which way to go
Lost and lonely, that is how all of us are. Daily live is no more than a permanent effort to forget and run away from that cruel reality.
why am I crying throughout this? I didn't even grasp the meaning of anything I've been watching but the tears are flowing, as if I understand it deep down.
Same :(((
No tengo palabras para describir los sentimientos que me causa este video. Simplemente hermoso.
Absolutely beautiful. I've connected greatly to the entire album, and this is just a masterpiece.
For you.
Irreale
appari a me
e a nessun altro
e ti celi nel nulla
Sentiamo il tuo respiro
sino a che
ne siamo capaci
chiudiamo i nostri occhi
tendiamo il nostro udito
ma non sentiamo nulla
Un respiro
il battito di un cuore
un respiro, ci nuotiamo dentro
ci sdraiamo dentro di lui.
This is one of the most beautiful short films I have ever seen.
That was the time when I was wandering through the forest for a few kilometers every summer night. That forest was between my village and my friend's. Those misty nights... Endless Sigur Ros on playlist. Moon and stars leading the way through the dark. Best time of my life.
Now I live in different part of planet. On a different continent. Unable to see my parents for 7 years already.
What happened to that forest? What happened to those summer nights? Why do things always have to change?
This would be forever in my heart. Forever.
You think is one of these days that you cant get lost? but you cant
você acha que é um daqueles dias em que não pode se perder? mas você pode
lost I lost my way, every feel just looks like the next
perdido, eu perdi meu caminho, cada sentimento para que será o próximo
Little snail, can you tell me what is this?
lesminha, você pode me dizer o que é isso?
Do you want me to guide you out of here?
Você gostaria que eu te guiasse para fora daqui?
You are out of friends, are you?
Você está sem amigos, não está?
Where are we going?
Aonde nós estamos indo?
Im way by home my dear
Eu estou a caminho de casa meu querido
Why the things always have to change?
Porque as coisas sempre tem de mudar?
I dont want to be on my own again
Eu não quero estar por minha conta de novo
Oh snail is it a terrible place
Oh lesminha este é um lugar terrível
Dont be afraid
Não tenha medo
I dont know what I should do
Eu não sei o que eu deveria fazer
Be brave little own be brave
Seja forte pequenino seja forte
Sleep little one, sleep, and when you wake I might be gone
dorma pequenino, durma, e quando você acordar eu terei partido
Sleep
durma
Look around
olhe em volta
You will find your own way home
Você irá encontrar por si mesmo o seu caminho para casa
Obrigada tava louca procurando a tradução!!! Maravilhoso!!!
My interpretation is that the man just got out of a relationship and has become "lost". Whether the snail is in the same boat is hard to say, but im guessing so, because it found a partner in the end as well. The snail and the man help each-other find "home" or a sense of normality. The man eventually reaches the fox. Notice the dark lighting, the fear the man feels, it conveys dark emotions and sadness. The fox is wounded or broken, just like the relationship. With the help of the snail, the man finally has the courage to drag it out of the recesses of his mind and let it die for good (Why the fox is shown decomposing). After this the man is finally free, and the snail has finally met someone for itself, which is why they must part ways. A beautiful story of human relationships, our fears, and hope.
Who knew Baelish could be so tender, though sleeping through the fox's decay does seem to be in character.
Is that Paetyr Baelish?
Yup
Dayum
For you.
Little snail and Little Finger.
lord protector of the vale
when this first came out i was so broken I couldn't watch/listen without breaking down in fear...but today I hear the words and i feel the sounds to be brave , and heal..💚
I got goosebumps. Finding this video with such an incerdible instrumental in tbe background in the middle of the night. I just can’t explain how I am feeling right now. I’m just staring into the darkness and I feel the heaviness in my bones that how lonely we are.
"Be brave little one, be brave ... " And I lost it
I cried like a baby...
This video is something special. I can't even begin to express how this makes me feel. The Valtari album in itself is one of my favourites but this piece, combined with such a heart felt video, reaches parts of my soul I thought I'd never find. This is my true meaning of beautiful. Sad, but Peaceful
This is one of the most beautiful and upsetting things I've ever seen.
Wow this brings so many memories from the last time I was playing in a field just like this with my rescue dog. He was a Collie, and in fact I found a snail and took him back with me. It symbolized change for me. And we went back home ... not too much longer we had to move but so cool ♥️
This was more profound then I was expecting.
Such a great actor. Aidan Gillen is by far the most underrated actor.
Parker Dolan agree!!!
+Parker Dolan No, his name is Peter Balish! :P
+Parker Dolan Agreed...he has that magical something~
+Ivory Smith Peter balish is a fictional character played by Aiden Gillen.
+Gaurav Kumar She is joking...
Poetry in images and music... as well as in the spoken words and sounds of nature.
It's been a while I didn't cry this much. Beautiful pictures, beautiful meaning, beautiful sounds. Every single detail was amazingly touching, from the voice of the snail to the wandering of the man
I have no words...... the fox broke my heart, although everything has a purpose in the video. Everything is beautiful.
Inolvidable vídeo, que me conmovió una vez y me sigue trayendo una paz conciliadora desde el interior hasta las lágrimas. Bastante bello. 👏🏼
Did anyone else realize that Sigur Ros was the band playing at King Joffreys wedding in Game of Thrones?
Holy shit!
Marvin Gardens yep! and he's looks like little finger!
as an icelandic person. yes.
Marvin Gardens Yes, I freaked out a little bit XD
Yup it's Aiden Gillen, the actor of littlefinger.
I saw this short film a couple years ago, and it was the first time I heard Sigur Rós, and I loved them. When it comes to the story, it is beautiful and well crafted... and deeply moving
Sat watching this from my hospital ward at some silly hour in the morning. I think a good cry may have done me some good ❤
The supreme sense of being, is what I feel when listening this song. Magnificent!
words can't describe how much i love sigur rós, it's a feeling i've never felt for any other band on earth, it's overwhelming and beautiful.
i can bet this is what heaven sounds like.
Same
One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Thank you for making this.
This is another magical song from Sigur Ros.
Wakes up my inner thoughts
Сколько бы я не слушала эту песню, слезы сами катятся из глаз. Спасибо.
This band is not just about music! They are much more than that! They narrate the secrets of life! I have cried or almost cried after watching every video of theirs!
Looking for Aidan Gillen. Ended up watching one of the most beautiful thing I've ever seen on youtube.
Looking for CIA memes. Ended up watching one of the most beautiful thing I've ever seen on youtube.
Iyaa poo?
Started on Mike Oldfield-Tubular Bells,ended up here.
I can't stop crying, this video it's so emotional
I feel tha same
Can u explain why crying pls?
Yes
Be brave little one
This is one of the most beautiful works of art I've ever witnessed
The man is wandering, lost and the snail is his inner voice, giving him hope and telling him to be brave. The man encounters his own injured self in the 'bad place', and the snail tells him to be brave. So the man embraces it, and carries it with him, instead of recoiling. After settling down to sleep with it, and fully embrace himself the snail leaves... the fox dies, revealing that he can handle the worst possible outcome. It has no relevance to him anymore. The snail leaves, and the man looks up at the stars, ready to guide himself...
:) love all these different interpretations!
This is sacred. This is magic. This is holy.
Why do we have to lose someone we love?
+Hyowon Kwon im in the same boat. worst feeling in life.
+Hyowon Kwon Why does things always have to change? Why can't we just stay in the moment still? We were happy.
To complete the story of that love.
+Djiou Carradore how can sadness be our creation? In what ways...?
+Hyowon Kwon Your mind is sad, but if you feel that you're loosing that one you love, you can search him untill the end of the world, or you can let him go. If your soul chooses the first one, you wont be afraid of what can happen. But if your soul chooses the second, then, he wasnt yours at all
this will always be one of the most beautiful works of video/music art I've ever seen.
This is what Lord Baelish was going through after he found out that Catelyn Stark died.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 just missing some friendly white walkers
But enough about The Avengers...
No

First time hearing this....4am, rain against the windows, lightning, thunder, tears, Sigur Ros, and Jonsi, always kbow how to evoke emotions out of me....thank u. Always great full.
This is deeper than the cosmic void... Love it ❤.
A música de Sigur Rós é envolvente. Esse clipe é belíssimo. LovelY!
I have never, ever, related to anything as strongly as I relate to this, and it makes me cry.
Found this video about a year ago, and it's still beautiful and emotional to this day. I can thank Sigur Ros for the fact that I am now learning to speak Icelandic.
I died 2 times inside. This including the video is killing me softly and gentle. It's just as it is. It's pure and just incredible to me
I cannot watch this anymore. It takes me to such a dark place.
Sigur ros always takes me on an emotional rollercoaster. My happiest dream and my most horid nightmares. No other band has come so close to my heart .
I hope they tour again . I need a live performance.
This is one of the songs that brought me out of that dark place. I was lost and didn't or rather wouldn't realize it. I had to face myself head on. This song brings me back to a time I had realized and it makes me happy that I did.
Watching them live was overwhelming! The most beautiful thing I’ve ever witnessed x
this video evokes so many meaningful emotions, the music is my favourite by sigur ros. no other video made for this song comes close to this. cant watch it without crying
Sigur Ros never fail to make me feel upset yet I listen to them everyday. Beautiful!
🤫🤗
"No animals were left on the wreckage for this video." - The Fire Riser.
Uno dei video a parer mio più Belli al mondo. Qui c'è tutto il senso della Vita! Impossibile non emozionarsi. Immensi Sigur Ros...come sempre! Vi adoro fin dagli inizi.
This is very well done. Mood is consistent with the music, and the cinematography is near perfect.
I think this film is a look into Agent Bill Wilson's life after the prologue scene for The Dark Knight Rises... apparently he has lost his memory in the plane crash (but is otherwise uninjured) and wanders the fields, looking for an abstract concept he calls 'home'... perhaps the snail is a manifestation of his own psyche, a greater power that refers to him as 'little one' in an attempt to finally allow Wilson to come to terms with the fact that he's a small guy. I hope that Wilson doesn't return to the CIA after this, and that his experiences once (if?) he regains his memory urge him to retire into a serene, pastoral life such as what is pictured here. 9/10 Bravo Nolan
Nope!
Petyr Baelish in a Sigur Rós video? Epic!
Lexithyia Star Actually it's the CIA agent from The Dark Knight Rises.
Same guy lol
Lexithyia Star CIA is not Petyr. Impossible.
mrmiffmiff actually he is the DA of Baltimore in The Wire before anything
Lexithyia Star also Sigur Ros was in the game of thrones at jeofferys wedding
Uncontrollable tears start at 4:49
mnfsteuffel YEESS EXACTLY
Can you explain why?
for me it was 5:08.
4:59 & 5:08 tears falls
@@michaqu754 me too
This is ART! LOVE IT! Lot's of my photography jobs I get inspiration from Sigur Rós music, just magic. Love it !
Watching this for the 10th time maybe, one of the most beautiful and emotional videoclip of Sigur Ros...
I listened to this song hiking the cliffs of California. I bowed my head and felt the wind against my breast The crashing of waves against the ancient rock spraying my face, cleansing of trouble. I knelt and looked to the sky. The fog inundated me. I was then inspired.
TELL ME ABOUT THE LITTLE GUY! WHY DOES HE GET LOST?!
HE DIDN'T NAVIGATE SO GOOD!
For reasons I can't even understand or describe this brought me to tears.
Yes, it does something, can't describe it either!
We have this mountain we call table rock in my city. It's a popular spot to watch the sunset and sunrise, also to see the entire downtown area. This song came on while I was watching the sunset and I never felt so connected with my surroundings. As the sky changed color, I sat and watched for hours, replaying this song. As the sun was finally going down I found my self tearing up because for the first time I discovered something truly beautiful.
Me encanta este video y tambien la musica de sigur ros , ademas sueño con visitar islandia en algun momento . saludos desde Perú :)
