In 2005, Iceland got its first #1 song in My Personal Weekly Top 10 Favorite Songs list, as Sigur Ros' Hoppipolla went to #1. Bjork, who is also from Iceland, is immensely more popular than them but since she sang most of her songs in English, she doesn't get that honor. The song translates to Jumping into Puddles in English. This song is very popular in movies, and it has been used many many times as part of a movie's soundtrack.
