Epic Song Lyrics Round 1, Wave 2, Poll 10

“Op een terras ergens in Frankrijk in de zon / Zit een man die het tot gisteren nooit won / Maar zijn auto vloog hier vlakbij uit de bocht / Zonder hem, zonder Herman / Want die had hem net verkocht

Translation:

“On a terrace somewhere in France in the sun / Sits a man who never won anything until yesterday / But his car veered off the road just around here / Without him, without Herman / ‘cause he had just sold it”

-Het regent zonnestralen, Acda & De Munnik

“Let the wind carry us / To the clouds, hurry up, alright / We can travel so far / As our eyes can see / We go where no one goes / We slow for no one / Get out of our way”

-Where No One Goes, Jónsi

Het regent zonnestralen-Acda & De Munnik

Time Stamp: 0:20-0:43

Propaganda:

The whole exceeding expectations/narrative structure. Like we start of with setting the scene like yeah there’s a guy somewhere in France. He’s probably just on holiday right? Oh his life kinda sucked, but he’s now on holiday so that’s probably why it’s- WAIT WHAT! If his car crashed how is he supposed to be happy now???? Oh he wasn’t in it, wait who drove it then? The guy who bought it, damn that must suck for him- oh we don’t care about him. This is about Herman. (Picking the name Herman is also so iconic ngl)

Where No One Goes-Jónsi

Time Stamp: 0:02-0:55

Propaganda:

The backing music is great and it’s just a bop in general. Also ngl I misheard it for literal years because the closed captions for it for the How to Train Your Dragon 2 dvd weren’t great there.

"How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World"

I have a confession. I'm a 43-year-old woman ... who still enjoys animated films. And one of my favorites - one that makes me reach for the Kleenex - is the final installment in the "How to Train Your Dragon," franchise.

~ Alan Becker, AvA, AvM

~~~~~~~~~~

Go sing too loud, make your voice break, sing it out

Go scream, do shout, make an earthquake

You wish fire would die and turn colder

You wish your young could see you grow older

We should always know that we can do anything

~Jonsi, “Go Do”

Alternate Version:

[malenkaya-glosoli]

There's no better sound than the sound of Jónsi's voice and the sound of rain both in the air at the same time.

Jónsi Sigur Rós

[dannydevitosthiccdog]

I remembered a song I liked years ago and I tried to find it again, I remembered the song name but apparently the song has changed??

I can't find the actual song I liked and I don't speak Icelandic so I can't look up the lyrics.

It's Sigur Ros' Von, it had a piano and violin and it was so chill. Jon sings in such a sweet way and I just felt waves of calm wash over me.
