Með blóðnasir

"Með blóðnasir": I would have said this meant 'Having a nosebleed' rather than 'With a nosebleed' - after all, 'Ég er með blóðnasir' would mean 'I have a nosebleed', not 'I am with a nosebleed'. I have changed it to reflect this. Correct me if I am wrong. Benny 13:01, 24 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hopelandic

I know that 'Milano' contains Hopelandic, and I'm fairly sure that 'Hoppipolla' does too. Anyone else help with this? Benny 11:07, 11 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. I updated the article with more information about this. 134.84.96.60 04:30, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks 134.84.96.60. There's more than I thought on this album. Benny 17:50, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Glósóli

Please Note: Glósóli does not mean 'glowing sole(s)' (Guardian journalist's error) or 'sunshine' (too loose). The nearest I can get is 'Glow-Sun' although feel free to shout me down on this one if you are a native speaker. Benny 17:46, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

In Icelandic, sól = sun and sóli = sole. The band members and the official website have confirmed this. Ghotistix 08:47, 28 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't the Label Geffen?

I believe the album belongs to the Geffen label, rather than EMI. The website http://www.sigur-ros.is/takk.html states that it was published by Universal Music Publishing Ltd, which "is now part of Universal Music Group." according to Geffen_Records. However, my US copy of Takk... has a label on the back that reads: "The copyright in this sound recording is owned by Sigur Ros under exclusive license to Geffen Records in the USA and Canada." Would it be appropriate to change the Label from EMI to Geffen?

The tiny print on my copy of the CD says "The copyright in this sound recording is owned by Sigur Rós [with an acute] under exclusive licence to EMI Records Ltd". I bought the CD in Australia, but the only evidence of regionalisation it has on it is "Made in the EU". It's quite possible that there's a North American release (by Geffen) and a separate rest-of-the-world release (by EMI).

When the children reach the cliff they jump off and fly away.

Is it just me, or does the last kid fall down rather than fly away? --Qviri (talk) 12:43, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that, officially, he flew away, but it's still OK for viewers to interpret it otherwise. (It says this somewhere in here). --Dave ~ (talk) 13:13, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- OK, thanks a lot (that was fast!). --Qviri (talk) 13:23, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Track Names & Capitals

On my copy of Takk... 'Heysátan' is uncapitalised and 'blóðnasir' does have a capital. Should I change the tracklist or is there a more 'official' version somewhere on the internet on whose authority it rests? --ZephyrAnycon 02:59, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the capitalisations on the cover are just stylistic, and part of the cover-art. I don't think it's supposed to be an official guide to capitalisation - ie. I don't think that Sigur Rós meant for the capitalisation/lack of capitalisation of the titles to be significant. I'd be in favour of leaving the tracklist as it is. --Dave ~ (talk) 13:03, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
