#95 (0f 365) "Hoppipolla" Sigur Ros

The highest Sigur Ros song to make this chart. Just a fascinating band, in retrospect. From Iceland. Their first albums, if I recall, were not only not in English but also not Icelandic, but instead in a fictional language created by Jonsi that he dubbed Icelandish. And the music -- a mix of post-rock and orchestral movements, with his high-pitched sing/squealing in a made up language. Their biggest album was untitled (referred to instead as "( )" and all the tracks were untitled. It just shouldn't work. I don't know how it did, or why it did. But it did.
