Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.
Respect the structure
Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.
Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)
Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.
Don’t mix versions
If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.
Let the lyrics be lyrics
This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.
Edit lightly
If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’
When in doubt, ask the crowd
Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
This song brings so many emotions up... it's a truly majestic piece of work. I think choosing not to use any real vocals in this song just adds to the universality of it... the song itself is warm and inviting, and ultimately it seems appropriate only for rejoicing and loving and living.
I was at West Coast Dance Convention and one of the choreographers, Stacy choreographed a routine to this... I
Fell completely in Love with it. The fact that It had no words really lead me to be able to have a connection with
god... it was like i was saying with my dancing "Here I am.... Watch what I can do" The dance was a simple
praise to Him. I can always feel him the minute i turn on the song on my ipod. it has given me an excape from
the rushing and racing of life... and into Him

Dito! My favourite Sigur Ros song.

One of the most haunting and painfully beautiful songs I've ever heard. A great tune to give way to introspective thoughts and reflections
This song was used in the film Mysterious Skin-couldn't have been used a more appropriate song for the ending of the movie
I agree with River Wolf. The song waslso used in an episode of Skins

This song does something to me that I can't quite describe. I find it transcendent and could happily listen to it all day.
