What are you listening to?

Just want to share from my other home state this local band’s song Granite State of Mind a cover of empire state of mind by Jay Z.

New Hampshire’s nick name Granite State since there is so much granite, also where author Dan Brown from DaVinci Code lives, the Segway and Tupperware was invented, Adam Sandler was born (actor), his niece went with my daughter to school :smile:, known for NH Primaries in pres. elections, first organic yogurt Stonyfield Farm in state (unfortunately sold to Danone in 2014 and changed recipe), seat belts only required under 18, motto Live Free Or Die (on the car plate :sweat_smile:), Pats Player Tom Brady, Christa McAuliff, Teacher in Space astronaut who died in the Challenger after take off, and so much more! Enjoy!

I’ve been exploring their songs and I came across a cover they did of the Sigur Ros song.

I haven’t been to the East Coast, but from what I’ve seen on the Internet, the northern part of the East Coast is beautiful!

Speaking of Icelandic:

Þetta er það lengsta sem ég fer.

Aldrei aftur samur maður er.

Ljóta leiðin heillar nú á ný,

daginn sem ég lífið aftur flý.

Ef ég vinn í þetta eina sinn,

er það samt dauði minn.

Trú mín er að allt fari ej vel.

Þessu er lokið hjá mér.

Dag sem nótt hljóðið var svo rótt.

Þrotið þol lamað bros.

Áfram ríð, hjartað pumpar tárum.

Dag sem nótt ég geng nú einn.

Grafin bein grotna í jörðunni,

eins og leyndarmálin þín

sem þú hélst forðum burt frá mér.

En blóðið þyngr´en þögnin er.

Svikin orð, grjót í kjafti þér,

rista dýpra en nokkur sár.

Brotin bönd aldrei verða söm.

Lygar eins og nöðrubit.

Þetta er það lengsta sem ég fer,

Aldrei aftur samur maður er,

Ef ég vinn í þetta eina sinn,

Er það samt dauði minn,

Trú mín er, að allt fari vel,

Þessu er lokið hjá mér,

Dag sem nótt, hjartað var órótt,

Þrotið þol, lamað bros,

Áfram ríð, hjartað pumpar tárum,

Dag sem nótt, ég geng nú einn,

Ef ég vinn í þetta eina sinn,

Er það samt dauði minn,

Trú mín er, að allt fari vel,

Þessu er lokið hjá mér,

Dag sem nótt, hjartað var órótt,

Þrotið þol, lamað bros,

Áfram ríð, hjartað pumpar tárum,

Dag sem nótt, ég geng nú einn.

Þ is pronounced like th in earth and ð like th in weather. Á (with accent) sounds like o in “now”.
