And the song is....Go Do, by Icelandic musical group Jónsi. For those of you who have not heard of Sigur Rós, Jón Jósep Snæbjörnsson or Jónsi (prounounced "yown-see")is an singer/guitar player from Reykjavík, Iceland, and lead singer of that band. Sigur Rós was a band known best for its ethereal sounds and unique falsetto vocals by Jónsi Birgisson. In January of 2010 Sigur Rós officially went on a hiatus, and since that time Jónsi Birgisson started a solo-project and album titled Go, which was released in April of 2010. Jónsi has since been on tour with this new album throughout North America and Canada. By April 12th, 2010 the album had already charted at #20 on the UK album charts and at #23 on the Billboard 200. So, check out this music, its quite different from most of the stuff you might hear, I wonder if he's related to Bjork???
