Sigur Rós - Hoppípolla

This was issued as a single in the UK after becoming ubiquitous on BBC in late Spring 2006. It was used as the background music for the trailers for Sir David Attenborough's natural history series, Planet Earth, for the closing credits of the BBC's coverage of the 2006 FA Cup final, and to promote their coverage of the 2006 soccer World Cup.
Some of lyrics are in Icelandic and some in Hopelandish, the language invented by the band's songwriter, Jon 'Jonsi' Birgisson.
