    I keep seeing all of these people saying they don't understand the video or that it's boring or something along those lines. But for me, after about 30 seconds I became an absolute mess. This is a visual representation for me of what it's like to live with anxiety and depression. Being trapped in a concrete room, being bent in odd positions by something no one else can see, forced to look above you at everyone else that leads an anxiety-free life, reaching with one hand and then the other for something that you want but are too afraid to take, climbing the ladder but not making it to the top, shaking her head to try and get rid of all the negative feelings, shuffling into the darkest corner of the room as a means of escape, and finally just lying down on the floor at the end because it's all too much, all the while still half-grabbing at that elusive thing called normalcy. I almost had to turn it off in the middle because it upset me so much to watch. So there is the meaning in it for me.

    For me, this is about recovery. Something has happened or is happening to you, something devastating from which recovery seems impossible.
    But slowly, you remember you can think. You remember your limbs are connected to you, and with them, you can move again. The spaces you have forgotten start to become real and physical again. It's slow, it's painful, but you're just thankful it is all coming back.

    This is one of my favorite songs by Sigur Ros.

    • @vaishalichandwani13
      @vaishalichandwani13 4 года назад +1

      I had this exact imagination. There was also a little girl in that forest. Sweet, brown curly hair, beckoning me towards her, leading somewhere we never reach, but it's beautiful around, with her around.

  • @douglasquaid
    @douglasquaid 12 лет назад +6

    This video, for me, showcases a mundane struggle for something unknown. Along the way there is a collaboration between pain and confusion; but blindly, this woman continues to grasp for something. I can only think of the majority of humanity follow a somewhat similar path. Knowing we share this bond, makes me more content with what I have.

  • @pcmood8073
    @pcmood8073 9 лет назад +73

    I think the song depicts the mind of a woman who has been in a devastating tragedy. Although the event is passed, she remembers.Its like her mind is now a confined room. Although there is an escape, it leads to insanity. Her life is now a remembrance of that event and no matter what she does, she can't shake it off.
    And so she embraces the pain and continues to live in a series of repetition.

    @FedorNation 9 лет назад +54

    Sadness can be beautiful in that it can affirm to us that we are all human beings, rich and deep, full of a range of emotions, and no matter how hard the powers that be attempt to suppress and divide us, we will always have this connecting us. Don't hide your feelings, embrace them. Don't let others tell you what to do, but try and take wisdom from every piece of valuable knowledge that they are willing to offer. Make your own decisions, but make them knowing that they rarely ever only impact yourself. We are not alone in this life, no matter how much you may feel like you are. Try and be a more open, honest, humble, and caring individual. Don't act with hate in your heart. Don't forget that you can always change, if you are willing to. Remember that it isn't too late to save the world.

    I heard this song on Captain Fantastic, but I've been a fan of theirs for decades. I was lucky enough to see them at the Hangout music festival a few years back, I think 2017. Unfortunately the performance was cut short because a strong storm came in, but it was great to see them live for once.

    "But even now, I still must empty my mind for work. I listen to Sigur Rós
    -“Varðeldur,” which my new friend sent me. Then I go into a sort of meditative trance. When the song’s done, my mind’s empty, and I can run
    fairly nimbly through work"

    to me, this video is supposed to represent the death and acceptance of something, and the beauty that lies within that experience.. to me it seems like this woman is supposed to represent some kind of phantom, whether it be literal or figurative, and she is grasping at things that aren't there, turning and stretching in every way to try to touch the world around her.. and then finally at the end she comes to terms with what it is that she has become a part of, and succumbs to it.. It's beautiful

    As an unamericanized foreigner living in the United States for most of my life, I have to say that this music is beautiful beyond description, and the video is deep and meaningful in countless ways and interpretations. The comment by erinwilde7176 is just one of those countless meaningful heartfelt interpretations. Furthermore, regarding the video, its meanings are not immediately perceivable, if at all, by the those steeped in all the superficial meaningless activites of modern day life; activities like social media, consumerism, and everything else that ties into those things.

    First time I watched the video I shat my pants and didnt like it, but for some reason I've watched again, and again, and again, and it sounds stupid but it gets me deeper and deeper every time, I can associate with the pain and the feelings expressed and the contrast between the hopeful music and the sad video really reminded me of some tough times in my life and helped me put those times away for ever.

    @dhaake2010 8 лет назад +7

    I do not read a whole lot into interpretation on this one. This is a mother that is in a concrete execution chamber. She is writhing and reeling as she comes to terms with the execution of her child. As a parent that lost a child (not in this manner), it just symbolizes the love of something that has been taken from me. The love I want to give to my son that I cannot give. The pain of not having him here, and her dance / morning is amazingly symbolic of the grief, pain, writhing and angst that you feel. She is grieving immediately after her loss, and writhing at the pain of it. Just my humble opinion though.

    • @thankyu4themusic
      @thankyu4themusic 8 лет назад +1

      It is every parent's worst nightmare. I hope you find this music in some small way healing. I thought your perspective was spot on, I know what you mean about the writhing loss. In any light, she is in profound sorrow and anguish. Just wanted you to know your comments were very touching.

    I think the video is about a person being blind to their surroundings, after facing the harsh reality of life and experiencing too much pain, to the point where she simply goes numb to all around her, as a way to stop it all. She spends her life in that grey room, oblivious to the fact that she is in that room. She's climbing towards an impossible goal, that no one else can see in her future. And she dies searching for it.

    I appreciate your feelings toward the video. I know where you are coming from and maybe it is trying to be something it's not. Maybe however, it is exactly what the group envisioned. Knowing Sigur Ros I am sure they are providing an honest projection of their thoughts and feelings, and they probably know that its not going to appeal to everyone. For that, I respect them more.

    Everyone has your interpretation for the video and music by itself. Because of the melodies and what video shows us, we think this is something sad. But it is the opposite, a kind of antithesis. We can be happy in our world within, no matter how it could looks like.

    this is a story of a mother who lost her twin sons in war. her husband left her. she has no one anymore. she creates someone within herself to be with, play with, conversate with herself. she goes through with the deep thought of her boys. slowly go insane. feel sad for this woman
