My god... this is something you don't see often in music videos. Proving once again how far Bjork can push the boundaries of pleasure and pain.

... at 2:30 a.m. in the morning, what can you find me doing? Watching loads of incredible music videos on the computer since god knows the US music stations (and even Much Music from Canada) won't air these any time soon.

Just finished watching Sigur Ros' video for their song "Višrar Vel Til Loftįrįsa" (not quite sure what the title means...) and holy shit. I don't think I've ever cried while watching a music video before.... This one is beyond description. The constant slow-motion camera suited the whole thing very well; the action of the soccer game with this special effect makes you hold your breath just a second longer... and also at the same moment that the two lovers are torn apart.

Short synopsis of this seven minute long video: A boy is playing with two dolls on a bridge. His father sees him there and is quick to rush over and toss the things into the river. Nearby another boy watches the whole thing. Cut to a soccer game with the two boys in the same team. During the team meeting before the game begins, he hands the other boy the two dolls which he got from the river. Later, the boy with the dolls scores the winning goal and everyone is exhilarated, especially his father. As the group of teammates separate from a group huddle/hug/celebratory, the two boys are on top of eachother in a passionate kiss. At that moment the video shows small clips of the interactions of the two boys and their loving relationship. Back to the present, the father is completely outraged and drags his son off of the other boy by his shirt collar which threatens to tear off of him.

Pure emotional work.
