Every single one of you here listening to Olafurs music. I love you so much. I’ve been searching for you all for so long. No one in my life cares to hear this music. I don’t understand it. Listening to Olafur is like a great cleansing. It impacts me in a way I’ll never be able to describe well enough. I love you all. You are a very special type of human. A rare kind. And you deserve love and happiness. My favorite Olafur song is “happiness does not wait” I want it played when I die. If you are a newer fan you should listen to it.
Hello Mamma. I'm glad to see we have the same favorite song. I have tickets for one of his show at the end of May '22 and I know it will be a musical feast. This song leaded me to others from Olafur alone and also with his collaboration with Nils Fram. Just love that kind of music... I love you too!
I've been in such a dark place lately, my whole life and dreams of which I was building with the person I loved had been shattered to absolute pieces, after everything came to a halt and we separated, and eventually I plunged into depression. Right now I'm going through such a stressful time with finals at medical school, and between therapy and antidepressants, friends and family support, and the best of my abilities, I'm trying to get myself together through this. It isn't easy, and I've learnt to never judge people for what they're going through and to be kinder with everyone on their own journeys. I'm trying my absolute best to grasp any form of light through this maze that I'm in, I'm trying to see a different reality or to get excited about different sorts of things on my own, however, it really is hard. This piece has been such a solace for me during these times and I'm absolutely grateful for such a delicacy. I can't and won't be able to control anything other than myself. This is a humbling lesson that life gave me as of late.
You`re not alone! Just close your eyes and see us lights who have been in the same place like you. We`re here, you are going to be okay and maybe one day you are a light that will help another soul to survive. You got this.
I went to his concert in Brooklyn last month and he talked about how he released “some kind of peace” despite not being able to perform it anywhere in front of an audience because of the pandemic. This was just his second concert in almost three years and he said “The way we get to know our music is by playing it for you.” I’m so glad I got to be a part of that.
My sister passed away today, I loved her very much she was my little sister. This has brought me some peace. My heart breaks and this is soothing. Thank you.
I’ve been listening to him for years now and his music has helped me through so much. I often feel angry that no one in my life knows who he is. I have sent them his music and everything and it just doesn’t move them like it moves me. I’ll know I’ve found my soulmate the day I meet someone in real life who is as passionate about his music as I am. Most underrated artist in our time in my opinion.
@@mammadeuces6242 i hope that the world will listen to this music and will not make wars and bad things to the people of this planet. Its enough with wars and laboratory diseases as like Covid and other stuff which waits us in the future
I cried listening to this music, it exactly paints this undescribable beauty of Iceland. I called it home for the last 4 years, moved out in june. The longer i am away the more it rips my heart apart. I left the biggest part of me behind...
@@geriburrito the economy in Iceland is 70% tourism and with Covid19 it came to a total stop. Many people lost their jobs including my girlfriend. We decided to move out to be closer to our families again but being close to them now just made me realise how much my heart and soul got attached to this small island in the middle of the northern atlantic. Icelands landscape and unique location is so soothing and realising that you are on a volcanic island wiht over 30 active volcanos makes you feel soooo alive and appreciative of life and nature itself. It´s simply breathtaking...
How long you have slept How long you have dreamt in the veils of pure starlight What dreams have you wrought in the forges of the night? Drops of silver moon on a restless sea. Elsewhere a majestic silence neath flickers of aeons past. Floating on waves in time I have memories looping in my thoughts Gathering stardust. Neurons to nowhere Everything beautiful, is... far away.
To carry Spirit Light into the World's dark Winter night, This is my heart's glad striving, that gleaming seeds of Soul may grow within the World's foundations, & in the darkness of the senses, Word Divine resounds, transfiguring all Life! 🕯 - Rudolf Steiner
Over the moon Under the stars Feel them arresting me Unknowables Fading at dawn Troubles, too Dimness sustains Oh the regret I could be lost to you Lost in thought Sending a kiss Back to the sky So has my world become Run out of breath I'm not the only one to lose a friend Where do you go You're going home What do I do with the Void in your shape Leaving me frailty A drop and I break What do I do With half of myself Then when the stars align With some kind of peace I could be loved by you Either way Where did you go You're going home Then when the stars align With some kind of peace I know I'm loved by you Either way Where did you go You're going home Then when the stars align With some kind of peace I know I'm loved by you Either way Where did you go You're going home You're going home
I just played this to my 6 year old son. So calming, centering, uplifting and beautiful. It was also an opportunity to explain winter solstice and the characteristic of being north of 60 on the shortest day, longest night of the year. Brings me back to my hometown in the Northwest Territories.
Whoever did the editing, messed up the frame rate. It's just facepalming when people do that. I mean, great sound, great camera movement, and then comes some dude who can't get one thing right - transfer this into a native frame rate. Instead, he converts it to another fps, and you end up with dropped frames translating into jerky movement, which is supposed to be fluid. As for the rest - beautiful as always, Olafur.
this might sound silly to some. but I was really deep in my depression. during this time, I got two kittens, siblings. they gave me so much joy and purpose.. unfortunally.. after a year, I lost one of them to a fox (I searched for her and found some of her remains in the snow) I dont think I can ever express how devastating it was to me and the grief I felt and still feel. It hits me so hard even 2 years after it happend . I remember coming across this song the days after I found her, I've never cried more than I did that week. and this song gave me so much comfort. this is my memorial song for her, also my expression of love for a little creature that gave me so much purpose,joy and hope when I couldnt find it alone. thank you so much. it helped me through such a difficult time in my life, and this song still impacts me deeply.
Hang on, for here is the moment you realize that everything only - truly has the value You give it! Here & now, your worries are finally gone & everything is okay, it's okay...it is... okay ❤🙏
It must've been a super short day. We were in Iceland in January and we had maybe 4-5 hours of daylight. It was really cool to watch the Sun rise and set in the middle of nowhere.
How in the world is something like this mixed so clean, what about mike bleed? what about pop filters? what about proximity effect? my mind is melting here. Seriously beutiful job on every level.
Patiently waiting for the concert 2022. Keeping my tickets. The moment I'll hear the 1st note on the concert I'll cry and won't stop till the next day.
In 2017, I was going through difficult times in many indescribable ways, my heart was so broken that wake up every morning was really painful, and then, like a healing bless from heaven, I discovered the music of Ólafur. Their musical notes were able to trigger a broad feelings range into my heart in such a way that, over time it was as if with each tone and to the rhythm of their compositions my soul was healed. Thanks Ólafur for help me when I needed!
Thank you very much Olafur. Thank you for your music. You're really something sent by gods in heaven. An extraordinary person that sheds light into this world. Thank you. Thanks to your music I feel less alone.
Musique tellement idéale à écouter ; on vole et découvre de nouveaux espaces ; merci de nous faire partager ce moment. Some kind of peace est fabuleux....
We are waiting for the film so bad, Mister Olafur you are the best ever Impressive title "when we are born" 😍 .. some kind of mind-orgasm Thank you very much.
I’m so grateful for your music, it brings me a lot of peace as I do my breathing practice, enabling me to go to deep places in my body which need healing. And I love the sunrise sessions where we can see all the musicians and their dedication and passion too. Such beauty 🙏
Wow, simplement magnifique 🥰 Je me suis imaginée, un instant, être assise, au milieu de cette pièce, et une pleine sérénité ma envahie. Je vous remercie pour ce moment magique 🙏 J'admire ton travail Òlafur Arnalds, ta musique m'inspire 🥰
Amazing how dark it gets there at this time of the year. Good thing you have summer to party in 24/7 sun

With Murray Gold, you're the only one that can make me feel so much emotions, forget that I even exist, transport me that way with your music... I don't listen to them, I feel like I live them
I really love your music. It helps me to get through my day, and remember that all human beings are connected somehow. Thanks for this album for this record!
i have an LDR with my boyfriend and we are currently listening to this together, separately.. it's magical how it feels like he's beside me right now, listening into the same music.. i love him so much.. and thanks to him i knew a lot of amazing musicians..
Is so impressive, this sound reached my heart S2 I feel peace, I feel alive, I feel in life you can do and be better and you can change. LOVE IS THE WAY FOLKS S2 S2 S2 S2 S2
s u b l i m e being a previous director/DOP, I Love how the dolly track encircles the set and performers as well - simple, soft lighting, etc. Even the operator shadow is wonderful... Such a delicate composition - nice detail, light and ephemerallllllllll the JFDR bit is exquisite
Olafur and the team, thank you so much for everything you do and have done, perfection in every note, every movement, color tones and decoration in this video. Masterpiece tribute to brighter days, they will surely come. Happy upcoming Christmas to everyone 🎄❄️♥️

I hope you see some beautiful sunrises and some peace come your way
It will get better my friend. Keep fighting like hell. Don't give up. It will get way better for you.
This album reminds me that I'm still alive and that I can still feel something
Somehow, his music always tends to do that for me as well since 2013.
I've been listening to him for years now; his music has had a huge impact on me of seeing the world so different .

I'm sorry for your loss may she rest in peace and love
Amid everything happening over the world, your album literally gave us “some kind of peace” we are forever grateful for your art ..
Found his album days before it was released and was externally grateful for it..

Loneliness, calmness, sadness, happiness.
I cried listening to this music, it exactly paints this undescribable beauty of Iceland. I called it home for the last 4 years, moved out in june. The longer i am away the more it rips my heart apart. I left the biggest part of me behind...
Why did you move out?
Love and prayers to you for your continued journey.

@@markusfuerst1909 I hope you can go back to Iceland someday :)
I feel like the camera man was also a “musician” in this piece.
Agreed
I read your comment at the last song and felt more like she was a train haha
He did a pretty good job showing all musicians playing from each angle :D
If the camera.man is near volcano shooting it he is a volcano too
The camera is on a track
0:00 - Spiral
4:21 - Still/Sound

How long you have slept
How long you have dreamt
in the veils of pure starlight
What dreams have you wrought
in the forges of the night?
Drops of silver moon on a restless sea.
Elsewhere a majestic silence
neath flickers of aeons past.
Floating on waves in time
I have memories looping in my thoughts
Gathering stardust.
Neurons to nowhere
Everything beautiful, is... far away.
Is this poem yours? It's beautiful..
@@LovEaNdmusicA Felt inspired after enjoying this, especially after this version of Back to the Sky at 8:30. Thanks for the kind words. :)

Beautiful, words. Thank you. Sparkle✨💖
So beautiful!!!
Perfect, thank you
"Beautiful thing don't ask for attention" this phrase really remind me of Olafur's music.
Sean Penn...
this version 'Back to the sky' with JFDR
without drums is even more beautiful for me than in the album
spiral is my favorite piece on his latest album
Likewise!
Same!
Couldn't agree more spiral is a beautiful piece
Over the moon
Under the stars
Feel them arresting me
Unknowables
Fading at dawn
Troubles, too
Dimness sustains
Oh the regret
I could be lost to you
Lost in thought
Sending a kiss
Back to the sky
So has my world become
Run out of breath
I'm not the only one to lose a friend
Where do you go
You're going home
What do I do with the
Void in your shape
Leaving me frailty
A drop and I break
What do I do
With half of myself
Then when the stars align
With some kind of peace
I could be loved by you
Either way
Where did you go
You're going home
Then when the stars align
With some kind of peace
I know I'm loved by you
Either way
Where did you go
You're going home
Then when the stars align
With some kind of peace
I know I'm loved by you
Either way
Where did you go
You're going home
You're going home
I am home..

I love Icelandic songs so much! They are so beautiful!
Thankyou all so much for reminding me what the phrase "achingly beautiful" means. ❤
Countless sunrises have started with Olafur's music and hot cup of coffee. Blessings.
I hope one day I to will find so emotional musicians to make such moving music with...
A little moment of life is in those notes.

Did not even realised i have been listening to your music so passionately lately
Ólafur Arnalds' music transmits indescribable feelings and emotions, you have to listen to it and let yourself be carried away
Listening again this December, one year later. Music brings peace & sanity for a mad, mad world.
Hang on, for here is the moment you realize that everything only - truly has the value You give it! Here & now, your worries are finally gone & everything is okay, it's okay...it is... okay ❤🙏
Incredible in every way - the music, the space, the light, the filming. I really enjoyed this, and will return to it often.
Incredible, indeed. ✨
Like the circular motion of the camera, I find myself often returning to this sublime performance
JFDR blows my mind, such raw emotive beauty.
It must've been a super short day. We were in Iceland in January and we had maybe 4-5 hours of daylight. It was really cool to watch the Sun rise and set in the middle of nowhere.
Those socks look extremely comfy. God bless the creature that made them and the creature that wears them.
Everything happens in good time. 🦋
Today is Winter Solstice too. Two years later on the day. Thank you for your recording.
No words to describe this well. More than perfect!
This "sunrise session" is very pleasurable ! I really like JFDR voice. ♥️
The last peice is pure art thank you for all the musicians ❤

When i listen to this music, i feel like my universe is in the changing.
Spiral for me, brings up every joyful and painful memory I have in my life all the same time, which leads to both kinds of tears. lol. Wonderful? Yes.
So the camera is running on the rail around the musicians. ^ ^ So clever. Nice video!
Musique tellement idéale à écouter ; on vole et découvre de nouveaux espaces ; merci de nous faire partager ce moment. Some kind of peace est fabuleux....
Back to the Sky...Evokes everyone I have loved , and everyone who has died..
those cars driven by out of the window, they didn't know what happening in here was so beautiful.
His music is so calming and relaxing, it gives me the sweetest dreams. If there was just one word to describe it.... Serenity
this is pure eternity! love!
We are waiting for the film so bad,
Mister Olafur you are the best ever

Still, there is so much beauty in this World, thank you!!
I couldn't sleep and then this showed up. 🥰🥰🥰. This is a bout of insomnia I will not complain about. Beautiful 💋
As long as there are people in the world like Olafur there will be hope for humanity as a collective..... Thanks
Its been a week since i randomly found this video
I legit watch this 5 times a day..
too good.
What a trip, thanks for the travel to the shortest day of the year, I loved it! 🙂
There are not enough words to express my feelings.
Thank you, Ólafur.
Simply magical ... from the Summer solstice in Sydney, Australia. .... thank you.
Magical..My favourite artist the last 6 years..
These are moments of immense simplicity captured with surprising sensitivity, especially in the music Back To The Sky (JFDR). Thanks!
Beautiful performances. So much talent in the room. Thank you for sharing your gifts. 🔥
We love it.
The aesthetic and calmness of this is refreshing. I love the placement of JFDR too.
and the game of lights and shadows ✨
Exactly what I needed during lockdown here in Greece...Thank you Olafur ❤️
I love this. This year has been tough on me and loved ones and this piece just keeps me at ease.
Oh my goodness - "back to the sky' is so very beautiful - tears and standing hair, and tingles - so fragile it could break at any moment. perfect !
Absolute Peace! Rich in color imagination and emotion
I really love your music. It helps me to get through my day, and remember that all human beings are connected somehow. Thanks for this album for this record!
Love the synchronicity❤
Es un alivio al alma y al corazón. Es hermoso escuchar que hay melodías y notas que llegan para cautivar y curar.

its a comfort place for me now
Beyond magical. Ethereal. Intangible.
Thank you, Olafur.
really amazing, my emotions are overflowing
JFDR Voice is so peacefully
Thank You 💖
No tiny drop-action (pull-up action) piano in my experience ever sounded so pure and musical.
s u b l i m e being a previous director/DOP, I Love how the dolly track encircles the set and performers as well - simple, soft lighting, etc. Even the operator shadow is wonderful... Such a delicate composition - nice detail, light and ephemerallllllllll the JFDR bit is exquisite
Just other amazing pieces of magical music. I believe artists have been given one of the most wonderful gifts of all - music. Thanks, Ólafur Arnalds!
I can’t express in words the vibe of this music and video. Amazing ✨
At this moment when this was happening wouldn't wish I'd be that fly on the wall to experience this sweetest enchantment of bliss
What an honour it would be to play alongside with Ólafur 🥰
Olafur and the team, thank you so much for everything you do and have done, perfection in every note, every movement, color tones and decoration in this video. Masterpiece tribute to brighter days, they will surely come. Happy upcoming Christmas to everyone 🎄❄️♥️
I started watching and could not stop. This is probably the most moving piece I have ever heard. Thank you all ❤️
Simply beautiful. Like a deep breath of fresh air for the soul. Thanks
