Thursday made an awesome cover of Ny Batteri. Looks like it’s been hosted here:

I think one can only enjoy this cover if he doesn’t speak Icelandic because it’s sounds a bit silly i.e. Icelandic with such heavy american (I guess) accent.

I third that re: Paul’s (and wife) awesomeness!
My gf and I absolutely adore Sigur, and frequently cuddle to it, lost in the timelessness and transcendence of the moment, induced in this spiritual reverie by the music.

I love this version too…. we actually got married using the We Are Scientists version last year (with my bride walking in) and then used an instrumental of the Sigur Ros original as we left. Just a perfect & beautiful track.

A guy named James Eric who does a bunch of singer/songwriter style covers of some odd songs covered Sigur Ros’ “Untitled #1″ from ( ). Pretty great actually, I think you can probably find it on Hype Machine. He also covered Timberlake’s “SexyBack”, Neutral Milk Hotel’s “Two Headed Boy”, and I think even Rage Against The Machine, if I recall correctly…
