Jonsi - Boy Lilikoi Lyrics






I want to be a lilikoi, Boy Lilikoi
You grind your claws, you howl, you growl unafraid of Hoi Polloi
You run, you're free, you climb endless trees, you reignite
You growl, you howl, you show your teeth
You bite, it's alright

Just say no more, use your eyes, the world goes and flutters by
Use your eyes, you'll know you are
Use your eyes, the world goes and flutters by
Use your eyes, you'll know you are

Wild beam, wild boy, you burn so bright
'Till you illuminate
One day you're out, you give up the fight
You slow down heart-rate

We all grow old, use your life, the world goes and flutters by
Use your life, you'll know you are
Use your life, the world goes and flutters by
Use your life, you'll know you are

Electricity wires are down
Rainbow colours fading to brown
Adventurous smile shifting to frown
Courageous boy, now you're a clown
Your antarctic hair, off with the crown
Your spirited friends, now a ghost town
You are... (Alive)
You are... (Alive)

I want to be a lilikoi boy - You
You grind your claws, you howl, you growl, unafraid of Hoi Polloi

Electricity wires are down
Rainbow colours fading to brown
Adventurous smile shifting to frown
Courageous boy, now you're a clown
Your antarctic hair, off with the crown
Your spirited friends, now a ghost town
You are... (Alive)
You are... (Alive)

    I was drawing while listening to this song and decided to draw a demon holding a rainbow orb transforming into an angel it's different I never drew anything so beautiful like that my art actually looks good for a change.
    A couple of times I felt like crying while drawing it.

    S.... L....

    I never thought that I'd actually almost make myself cry to one of my own pictures

    S.... L....

    I once drew a picture of a person standing in the middle and four people putting their hands on top of the eyes and the ears. And the other two were holding onto her. They were angels and she couldnt see them. Like she was in an accident and they wanted her to forget it and be strong.
    I was listening to a song were they said 'cover my eyes, cover my ears, tell me these words are a lie'

    I was just getting started with drawing, but i think i will one day redraw it. ^^

  34. J.... W....

    He's bilangual!

  35. A.... B....

    Possibly the most transcendent piece of music I've ever heard.

    A.... B....

    I haven't really listened to Sigur Ros yet... (I do have their music in a playlist though.) Maybe Bon Iver? Um, you can also try to use a site called musicroamer.com which (to me at least) has given quite good recommendations in the past. Hope this helps!

    A.... B....

    @524Lissa hello! I too was looking for bands that sound like sigur ros/jonsi, and i went on that website...there was nothing 0-0 that just shows how amazing and unique sigur ros/jonsi are 0u0 just a little side note :3

    A.... B....

    @Chloe Melo Ah, I do agree... Maybe it's a good thing that we can't find something like their music :3 Thanks for telling me though!

    A.... B....

    You think this is transcendent? Try Grow Till Tall.

    A.... B....

    Try Untitled 3 by Sigur Ros

  36. R.... G....

    22th???? lol that description.

    R.... G....

    Twenty Tooth!

  40. E.... E....

    Sounds like magic or something at 1:34

  41. a.... ....

    eels your eyes

  42. z.... ....

    This is fantastic. Our world is so much better with music like this.

  43. i.... ....

    Jonsi, you are pure perfection.

  44. S.... C....

    This song always makes me so happy. Every single time.

    S.... C....

    but at the same time I want to cry

  45. L.... ....

    Love Song

  46. o.... ....

    I don't know what it mean,but the melody is so good :)

  47. i.... ....

    This guy is a legend, first Sigur Ros and now this band.

    he should be introduced to music hall of fame.

  48. L.... D....

    thats good that this made you happy! :3

  49. J.... O....

    I'm in one of those moods right now, the one where your mind is taking in everything and over-analyzing it, and I can say this song honestly brought a confusing tear to me eye. I can't tell if it's happiness or sad reminiscence, but it's good. This guy is special.

    J.... O....

    Joe Olson Yep same with me and that’s normal for me, I actually forget about Jonsi for a while but I found it like a month ago and haven’t stopped listening to him songs, they are just so magical and always puts me in a good mood 🙂

  50. C.... D....

    The most relaxing and beautiful song ever heard. :'-)

    C.... D....

    Yeah it is

  51. j.... i....

    listening to Jonsi makes you forget about everything that is so fucked in this world. For 4:30 minutes my life was perfection.

    j.... i....

    Same. I'm depressed, just as so many are, but music can form an escape of sorts. Most people think depression is bein' sad all the time, but it's more numbness... That's why some people resort to self harm and such, to kill numbness and let their mind shut up, just for a minute. That's all they need.
    *But* this music is just as good, if not better than cutting, burning, carving or other. As you say, it's as close to, if not a perfect way of just *"feeling"* .

  52. V.... A....

    Everything about this is perfect ... This makes me so proud to be a huge fan of his! <3

  53. G.... ....

    This song is so very special to me,, it reminds me of two of the happiest and more delightful experiencies in my life... one with a dear friend, and another with a dear lover.. both so magical... I can't decide which one was actually the best... so I have two best moments in my life... and more.. every time I listen to this c:

  54. w.... ....

    I'm trying to write an essay but my leg wont stop shaking my laptop

  55. c.... ....

    this song put the biggest lump in my throat and I'm crying. So powerful and beautiful

  56. a.... ....

    i have been in love with sigur ros for years! WHY IM I NOW JUST FINDING OUT ABOUT THIS!!!

  57. C.... ....

    @Amoebe98
    I actually cried while listening to it... so beautiful.
    Love you Jonsi

  58. J.... B....

    but how do i become a lilikoi boy????????

  59. S.... i....

    @zephyrboy96 Hiatus, they're back on track now ;)

  60. D.... T....

    Why am I reminded on Murakami when I listen to this song? :)

    Lovely.

    Thank you for the upload. I shared it a while back.

  61. t.... ....

    @zephyrboy96 Are you fucking kiding me.

  62. p.... m....

    did sigor ros split or something?

  63. a.... ....

    If I'm sad this makes me feel SO much better - I think it's largely Nico Muhly we have to thank for the amazing arrangement; and of course Jónsi for this genius Music.

  64. K.... W....

    woww <3

  65. S.... i....

    If you guys want to know a read that "lilikoi" means along with the nature or eco-friendly (also passion fruit). I figured many wanted to know because it wasn't any common translation :)

  66. W.... .....

    this song here is a great stress reliever, and for that thank you jonsi

  67. J.... T....

    I love Jonsi! All of his music is just amazing!

  68. J.... M....

    This song makes me sooo happy omfg.

  69. J.... C....

    this is the best Jonsi English:):)) Really goood! love what he did out of this album!!!

  70. M.... ....

    I love how it goes from calm, then into the use of constant instruments in 1:04 <3

  71. f.... ....

    This song has an almost Sufjan-esque quality to it. The use of a choir, the woodwind flourishes, and the all-around orchestration really brought that fact out for me...

    I love it. I cannot wait for this album to come out!

  72. m.... d....

    such simple, yet such beautiful lyrics. not to mention the music itself.

    absolutely gorgeous. i'm nothing less than obsessed!
