History Awesome / SigurRos

* I'll be damned if "Gobbledigook" doesn't [[SugarWiki/{{WAFF}} make you want to run naked through a field]] [[SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel just like the cover of the album.]]

* "Samskeyti," Not unnoticed by [[Film/MysteriousSkin Gregg Araki]].

* "Hoppípolla" is definitely their most [[SignatureSong popular song]], and for good reason! It's been used for the credits for the 2006 FA Cup final, '''The 2006 Olympics''', and in the trailers for ''Film/WeBoughtAZoo, ''Film/ChildrenOfMen'', ''Film/{{Penelope}}'', and ''Film/SlumdogMillionaire''!

* "Brennisteinn" is probably a [[TropesAreTools best-case-scenario]] for DarkerAndEdgier.

** "Svefn-g-englar" is like High Octane SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel. And the title translates to "Sleepwalking Angels." ''[[{{WAFF}} Dawwwwwww]]''

!!!''Ágætis byrjun''
* "Svefn-g-englar" is like High Octane SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel. And the title translates to "Sleepwalking Angels." ''[[{{WAFF}} Dawwwwwww]]''
* "Starálfur." That string arrangment!
* "Olsen Olsen" starts off nice enough, but once things really kick in around halfway through, it just becomes ''glorious.''
* And then after that comes the BreatherEpisode that is "Ágætis byrjun", which shows that even when working with just acoustic guitar, bass, drums and piano as opposed to their characteristic wall of sound, Sigur Rós can still deliver.

* The sheer fact they, a post-rock/dream pop group, got the opportunity to score, [[PlayingAgainstTheType of all things]], '''''[[Film/LordsOfChaos a Black Metal thriller]]'''''. It speaks volumes of their skills as musicians, especially those who simply assume they're all hope and light when remembering they made ''[[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness Von]]'' and ''[[DarkerAndEdgier Kveikur]]''.

* Jonsi's voice in general. By ''god'' that man can sing. At live concerts he's managed to [[IncrediblyLongNote hold single a loud, falsetto-toned note for well over a minute]]! [[https://youtu.be/N-xBWxWmHZM?t=1m36s Here's one such example]] of him holding a note for 49 seconds.

* Jonsi's solo work has some great songs as well. Examples include: "Around Us","Sinking Friendships","Go Do","Grow Till Tall",[[WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon "Sticks and Stones",]] and [[WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon2 "Where No One Goes".]]

* ''Von''

** "Sæglópur" is basically SceneryPorn for your ears.
** "Gong" is a shining example of the epic scale the band is known for.
** For such a short, simple song, "Með blóðnasir" sure manages to be incredibly heartwarming.
* ''Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust''
** I'll be damned if "Gobbledigook" doesn't [[{{WAFF}} make you want to run naked through a field]] [[SweetDreamsFuel just like the cover of the album.]]

* ''Other''
** "Brennisteinn" is probably a [[TropesAreTools best-case-scenario]] for DarkerAndEdgier.
** Jonsi's voice in general. By ''god'' that man can sing. At live concerts he's managed to hold single a loud, falsetto-toned note for well over a minute!
