jónsi about takk

here is a quote from jónsi about takk, courtesy of nme: “it’s a bit more happy, with a bit more hope in it. the lyrics are small adventures, maybe like children’s stories or something. i think the songs are quite simple and naïve and they have a central character to them. there’s one called glósóli, and he wakes up and everything is dark outside and he can’t see any light. he thinks that the sun is gone and somebody has taken it from the sky, so he makes a journey to look for the sun. he finds it in the end.”
