Sigur Rós - Hoppípolla

Back by popular demand…

'Hoppípolla', taken from Sigur Rós's most highly acclaimed album to date, 'Takk…', is re-released by EMI Records on May 1. It has been inescapable to notice that 'Hoppípolla' is currently being used to trail the BBC's highly successful natural history series, Richard Attenborough's Planet Earth.

This high profile exposure has sparked an upsurge of interest from the general public about the track whilst also helping it shoot straight back onto the playlists of Radio 1 (Jo Whiley's 'Record Of The Week' no less…), XFM and Capitol.

'Hoppípolla' is hands down the most commercial thing Sigur Rós have ever recorded. At just over 4 minutes long, it is also the only song anything like radio programmable they've ever put their name to.

Starting with a simple and pretty piano motif, 'Hoppípolla' proceeds to layer slightly warped backwards string loops with beautiful real 'forward' strings to slowly construct a feeling of awesome well-being, surging on a tide of pure psychedelic pop euphoria.
