a musical journey

I enter to my living room and choose one of my favourite album to listen to.I play the cd and quietly I lay on the sofa.The cd is agaetis byrjun, by sigur ros,an icelandic band,which composes a beautiful and strange music.They play a kind of ambient music that some people called "post-rock".0k,going back to my imaginary musical journey;the first song (Intro) set the mood,I listen angelical voices singing in reverse,then the music calms down and I fell like I´m going underwater(Svefn-g-englar)the keyboard emulate the sound of a radar,then the sound of the organ makes me feel a deep peace and comfort.I imagine a unborn baby floating inside her mother,suspended in time and space:the magic of life.The song ends with a strong heartbeat and (Staralfur) begins.I don´t know why but each time I listen to this song I see in my mind a beautiful tree,very old and high,I can see it now,it looks like a weeping willow.Their leaves dances with a light breeze...Flugufrelsarinn starts,and I´m now travelling in an old ship,trying to sail in spite of the heavy fog,I feel the cold and humidity in my body,and the picture is a desolate one.Fortunately I get to the shore as the song begins to fade.However,the next track makes me feel nervous(Ny batteri)the bass set the mysterious atmosphere:now I´m locked in a cage,in a dark room and I can´t escape.there is an uncomfortable silence in the room,as something bad is going to happen.I want to open the cage and escape, I think I get out of this glommy place.Another song comes to save me...Hjartad hamast is a jazzy tone which takes me higher and I feel release.Unfortunately the song ends,but the best part is about to start.(Vidrar vel til loftarasa)the intro with the piano is amazing,now I feel at home.It warms my soul with its melody, and later takes me to its end with an outstanding explosion of violins and chellos.Now it´s time for Olsen olsen,my favourite one: it´s a celestial vals, with a sweet melody played by a whistle.I want to laught,to stand up and dance;I´m in heaven.But suddenly it stops,and I fall into a nice dream(agaetis byrjun)I am very sleepy at the moment,I just want to close my eyes and fly with my mind.The album ends with Avalon,which is elegant and slow.A sudden beat over one of the violin strings closes the record.I was travelling and now I´m at home.It was an incredible journey.
