Sigur RósSigur Rós - Glósóli
The name is a combination of gló- from the verb að glóa meaning “to glow, shine, glitter” and sóli meaning “sole.” The second element of the name, sóli, shares its grammatical stem with the word “sól”, meaning “sun”. In combination “glósóli” can be understood as a childish way of saying “glowing sun” or “let the sun glow”.

I would love to just lie in the grass with a girl and listen to Sigur Rós all day. The afternoon sunlight glimmering down our faces. The summer breeze softly passing by. The green grass gently caressing our backs. I want to slowly let the soothing melodies wash over us as it cleanses our spirits. To savor the Icelandic lyrics, which we have no idea exactly what they mean but would still be utterly beautiful to our ears. I want to share the beauty of music and nature right by your side. That alone would make me the happiest man in the world.
“I awake from a dream to find my heart pounding.”

(English Translation)
But where are you… go on a journey and roam the streets. Can’t see the way out and so use the stars. She sits for eternity and then climbs out. She’s the glowing sun, so come out I awake from a nightmare. My heart is beating out of control…
