I agree, it was astonishing. And to think I almost passed the exhibit by. This was a profound meaningful and beautiful piece of art, the kind of thing I will never forget.. The separation of screens makes you feel that you are walking through those rooms, the sound only furthers the effect. This is art at its finest!

It was so incredible I say them in Phoenix last week at the gallery and I almost started to cry. I am not a crier. It is the most beautiful music sound experience and I will never forget it. I went in to listen three times... 3 times I just couldn't get enough of this even with my emotions and tears almost running down my face. Goose bumps people goose bumps .... A have to see in person into the room and the sounds surrounding your very soul. :-) I love love love !!!

I saw it for the first time in LA at The Broad in 2018, and then, to my big surprise, again last year at the Louisiana in Denmark. I instantly recognised the music and it brought so much tears to my eyes. It was a special moment that I shared this second time with my mum. ❤

I am a security agent from a recognize Art Center from Buenos Aires. I work in this presentation with some monitors, and I cant describe my feeling... Is like an happiness and a sad, 2 in 1. But this song really touch my hearth and I dont know why. I`m sorry for my inglish, Greatings from Argentina. Nahuel

Takes your breath away .. Truly

I just saw this at the Barbican today. When I read that this piece was over an hour, I thought I would stay 15 minutes or less in the room and would be done. I found myself not wanting - and not being able to - leave the room. I don't even have words for how beautiful it is. Even so, if I had to find a better word for this piece, I would say human. And, in my opinion, that's what makes it so unique.

I saw this at SFMOMA, and saw it again...and again. And will see it again.

I think this is my first ever youtube post. I wandered in to this piece at the Broad in LA and it had me nearly in tears. I find it so beautiful. Anyway, thanks for posting it here

I just went there and had the exact same reaction!

Just recently saw this at The Frist in Nashville. It was incredible.

I had been separated from my step sisters at a young age in order to live with my biological mom across the country. I was really close to them. Eventually they were able to come and stay with me for a couple months. Time came for them to leave and on their last day we went to LA and saw this piece of work a couple hours before their flight took off. This song has always been happy/sad to me. Means a lot.

Saw it in Stuttgart, Germany, and I still think about it I went a total of 2 times to it, the second one specifically for this It's such a simple idea but executed so incredibly well. It gives me so many emotions I can't describe When all of them started joining in and just- it became louder and louder and I couldn't stop smiling It's art at its best

Saw this at the Hirshhorn today and had to close my eyes and just...be...for a minute.

Put on Spotify please. Heard in Dallas TX and fell in love with the song

Saw it in Madrid yesterday. Never been so into an art piece, made me smile, cry & smile again and again. Still moved

I've now seen this (parts of it anyway) twice at the Smithsonian Hirshhorn museum here in Washington DC. Just jaw dropping gorgeous. I HIGHLY recommend seeing this if you are in DC over the next three months!!

“A pink rose In the glittery frost A diamond heart And the orange red fire Once again I fall into My feminine ways You protect the world from me As if I’m the only one who’s cruel You’ve taken me To the bitter end Once again I fall into My feminine ways There are stars exploding And there is nothing you can do” The lyrics come from a poem written by Ragnar Kjartansson's ex-wife: Ásdís Sif Gunnarsdóttir. Found this piece of art by accident 5 months ago in Madrid... And I am still deeply moved.

I saw this in Cincinnati @CAM. Pleasantly surprised to find out that I am not the only one who was a bit verklempt by the end of this. Whatever is was, the repetition of the melody or the soul-line running through the people, it was heart-rending and I was at last standing there with a lump in my throat.

If you have a chance, go see this in person. It was an amazing experience to just sit there and take in the whole piece

Saw this in Phoenix AZ today. It touched my heart.

Saw this fantastic event on Guggenheim Bilbao in 2014

I saw this today at the Dallas Museum. My dad and I came into the exhibition , each screen will pop up with an image of the musicians. We didn’t know what to expect. Then the music started slowly. And the next thing I know I’m feeling deeply touched by this music. It was such a beautiful experience. I felt it in the core of my existence. Beautiful

Seeing this in exhibition is absolutely incredible and heartrending.

Saw this about 4 years ago @Smithsonian Hirshhorn museum here in Washington DC. Amazing! I went nearly every Wednesday at lunchtime for the entire run. Got to know every two cord guitar player in the gold tinsel circulating stage...............if this ever come your way do not miss it!

We were both mesmerised by this production at the Guggenheim in Bilbao a couple of years ago- and it has stayed with us ever since. It just grabs you and is so immersive, yet in such a simplistic kind of way that I felt overwhelmed with emotion by the end. It was fascinating also how others reacted; a real communal experience as people entered, some standing, others sitting or lying down, some moving around to see the screens, others just being still and actually everyone being content to just 'be' in their own way - never seen anything like it.

i saw this a couple days ago at the ica in boston. what a wonderful, haunting experience. truly indescribable, but thank you for putting remnants of it up on youtube

Saw this in either Venice or Florence Italy in 2013. It captured me somehow and I typed the lyrics into my iPhone notes. Just recovering it today.

Saw it in Cincinnati. I cried it’s beautiful.

This made sob. I think we stayed in there for 30 mins. I was so impacted by this art!

I saw something like this at The Broad in L.A., and it was amazing. It was this same group of people, and you could see them on the screens in the dark, soundproof room they had, and I heard this. It was amazing. Another song they did was "There Are Stars Exploding", I believe, and it was amazing. Absolutely amazing. Thank you for posting this song, here. I, just, I needed to hear it again.

Just saw this today at the Phoenix Art Museum , the discussion between myself and many others outside was how it was the surprise hit of the day.

The pure art that deserves a special place in this world.

I also saw this at SFMOMA. I walked in the room while the video was playing and it was an amazing feeling and beautiful to see. It’s coming to Boston, I gotta go see it again!!

En ce moment au SFMoma ....Une chorégraphie du son extraordinaire.

It’s amazing on what helps us connect. I’m in tears every time I listen to this.

I saw this in the Fine Arts Museum in Houston and I was just shocked completely by it as music is one my passions so seeing it like the way it was placed was just mesmerizing

Saw this today in Yokohama, it was so inspiring and moving...

You have to see these images as separate videos played simultaneously, now on at the Barbican - absolutely amazing,

Saw this at The Broad in LA. :')

Isso é maravilhoso... Moro no Brasil e confesso que não o conhecia. Quero ir para a Islândia e conhecer sua obra! Great!

It is beatiful.

Just saw this at MFAH, i actually almost cried. You could feel exactly what theyre feeling its insane. After seeing this every piece of art at the museum is just meh. Will never forget this piece.

Can anyone tell me where I can find music like this? The description says "feminine nihilistic gospel song" but I find anything similar. Thanks in advance

Artsy_Gzus better late than never! I just saw this exhibit today. The music is very very folksy, I would suggest maybe Fleet Foxes, Bon Iver, maybe the Lumineers. The artist is Icelandic, so you could even go with another group from Iceland, Sigur Ros.

Is there some way I can purchase this song?
