Hoppípolla

Momentum

This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.

Why it's here

The song was featured in trailers for the BBC's Planet Earth television series, giving the band exposure to a mainstream audience. [1] Sigur Rós re-recorded the track in 2016 for trailers of Planet Earth II, and it was used again for Blue Planet II trailers in 2017. [2] The song has also appeared in trailers or soundtracks for films including Children of Men, Slumdog Millionaire, Penelope, We Bought a Zoo, and The Mitchells vs. the Machines. [3]

In culture

Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.

City pickups

City charts record their parent country as the market, so these do not add to the market count above. One line per country: how many of its rooms picked the song up, and the best of them.
