Sigur Ros

This is by Mary-
This morning, we drove to my grandmother's house in the country. The sun was shining. The sky was bright blue but got lighter as it neared the horizon, so the bottom of the sky was white like the whispy clouds at the top of the sky. There were snow-covered rolling hills, and I'm not even sure why I found it so beautiful today. The grass was showing through in some places and the trees were grey and lifeless. But I loved it. Mostly because the song Hoppipolla by Sigur Ros was playing. It is, to me, probably the most uplifting song in the world. It makes you want to roll down green hills in the summertime, or laugh, or cry with joy, or twirl in a field or hug somebody or dance or frolic or just do anything happy! And when it ends, you're sad because it's over and you know that the next song couldn't be so terribly joyful as Hoppipolla.
