The Icelandic band Sigur Ros is known for their use of "Vonlenska" in many of their songs, which describes the unintelligible lyrics sung by the band. Although the lyrics are gibberish, I can't help but still hear words that speak to me, personally.
Sometimes the grammar doesn't really even make sense, but in a weird way... it does.
Try listening to the song and see what you can interpret from it. Then, compare it to the "lyrics" that I wrote down here. I'd like to see interpretations other than my own. :)
*These lyrics were my first interpretation of the song... When I hear it now, I can barely hear the "desire" part... not sure what it sounds like now. ("Is I all" ?)
(Untitled) 4 - Sigur Ros
